HN discussionI’ve been running this level of models through a personal benchmark on a RX6750XT. I am hoping to get to the point of being able to run a personal assistant agent with tools at its disposal. The results are largely the same, with some outliers. Results can be seen here: https://0xff.nu/hexbench/

HN discussionI love automating stuff like this. I recently moved to authoring my blog via Obsidian which definitely helped with both the editing comfort and also being able to reference my posts internally in my vault. Wrote about it briefly, too: https://0xff.nu/hajime-plus-obsidian

HN discussionI finally was able to have some spare time and mental clarity to fix and update my task runner Boku ( https://github.com/hxii/boku ) based on plans that were pending from like October 2025, and I'm finally happy with the result. Before that, I vibe coded peek – a CLI network monitor, just because I couldn't find a solution that did what I needed it to do (think Uptime Kuma, but less and in CLI). You can try it out f…

HN discussionIt's difficult, but try writing everything down, just to let it out at least. Don't expect a magic bullet here. At least for me, even though I'm medicated, the constant torrent of ideas, of thoughts, of context switching is exhausting. I wrote about it briefly here: https://0xff.nu/adhd-productivity-fundamentals/ I honestly wish I could see the world, at least for one day, how neurotypical people see it.

HN discussionI remember complaining about this around five years ago [^1], and it looks like not much has changed since, save for the amount of people complaining about websites being full of garbage that serves no purpose or static resources being bigger than the should be.

HN discussion"Remote work is bad for ME" is what the title should've been, and that would've already made your point more palatable. The logical leap from "I feel lonely" (which is absolutely valid) to "remote work is bad" is simply blunt overgeneralization. Moreover, it comes as a disservice to posts like mine ( https://0xff.nu/remote-work/ ) as employers see "lonely" -> "See?? remote work makes you lonely! So now everyone goes…
