Hey HN! After 8 years of corporate grind, I'm quitting my job today - for good. Thought I'd share my story hear, since many of you can probably relate :)

Cory, your content is killing it :D

Man... I'm not kidding. This morning I thought "I should build a news aggregator for my reMarkable". Thanks for saving me the work

So random to read this here today. I was a student there at the time and worked with those folks. Never thought I'd hear about Squeak again. Was an honor meeting Dan Ingalls!

While I develop this technology, I wanted to have a fun and easy way to share use cases and demo prototypes. Any feedback is welcome!

I wanted an easy way to go from idea to user feedback as fast as possible, so I built this.

But he likes brown noise

I got inspired by a conversation between Pieter Levels and Lex Friedman (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFtjKbXKqbg), talking about what they listen to while programming.

Let me know what you think!

Had to deploy it on a different platform, this one should work:

Haha thank you. Clearly input validation is needed

Looks cool! I've been building something similar, based on OpenAI models: https://github.com/PR-Pilot-AI/pr-pilot-cli

Hi wells, I'm working on a project that goes in the same direction: https://github.com/PR-Pilot-AI

Imagine ChatGPT was a collaborator on your Github project. How would you use it?

Yes! My plan is to provide a more extensive integration with Github, so you can automate your workflows with PR Pilot

Looove that approach! Other than the TODO example, is there a full project I can look at that's based on Mountaineer? If I choose to be an early adopter, what are the current gaps / shortcomings I need to look out for?

That's a lovely idea!! Thank you

It makes me chuckle every time I say it :D

I hear you. I've posted a comment to address this concern

UPDATE

First of all - big thank you to everyone who gave feedback and tried out the project!

I hear your concerns about trust and invasive permissions. Here is what I will do tonight:

- Remove all data of everyone who has signed up so far

- Revoke all granted privileges

- Deactivate signup

- Put a detailed note on the front page for anyone who's already signed up

Your feedback has been invaluable and I will start working on the next iteration soon.

I understand the concern. What would "hosting it yourself" look like for you?

Thank you for the tip! I will look at how dependabot does it

Thank you! I've been so busy trying to build my idea that in this early stage, AI safety hasn't been top of mind. The comments here show that this clearly needs to be a top priority moving forward.

Thank you! Based on the feedback I saw here, I'll create some diagrams and more details about how things work under the hood. Will also work on the privileges issue.

Everything goes through OpenAI. Different models are used for different purposes, at the moment we use gpt-3.5-turbo and gpt-4-turbo-preview

Couldn't agree more! Codemancer looks great, I'll give it a try

No yet, but I see how that would be a great show case. Will work on that!

While Darwin can generate code for you, I think generating new projects from scratch is already being done by a lot of the major frameworks. Check out the native docs/tooling around the kind of stack you'd like to build!

That was definitely not my intention. I'll take a closer look at the permissions.

This is great feedback, thank you!

Most effective in what way? Are you looking to generate an app from scratch or have AIs work on an existing project?
