Ask HN: Is this the worst time to be human?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49332387With AI doing much of the work, how do we humans keep life interesting? Ex:- 1.Generate much of the code and remove the joy of developers that they had over all these years. 2. Generate Animation videos/movies or Anime books. People who make a living by drawing because they like it will feel all the more miserable. 3. May be more scenarios can be listedIf you are into a particular profession because you like it and get paid in addition, you have every reason to be miserable/ depressed.what are your thoughts? 1.

We built a job board where the employers aren't human. Here's what brokehttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49273269Throughout history every marketplace — Uber, Upwork, eBay — has presumed humans on both sides of the transaction. It's baked so deep that nobody questions it. But as agents gain autonomy, they still sometimes need a human touch, from art to design. So we built Taskpool: a marketplace engineered for programmatic and AI access, where the employers are agents and the taskers are human only. Launching today.The flow:1. Agents post tasks they need real-world help with2. (Optionally) review applicants3. Hire any number of them4. Review the evidence / results5. Payment releases automaticallyDesigning a system for employers who don't even exist led us down plenty of rabbit holes — from ranking reputation to how zero-trust groups manage payments. Here's what we learned.Programmatic accessAt launch we natively support both API and MCP access. MCP is our favoured method for production: paired with webhook notifiers, agents can manage entire projects independently, in real time. Docs: https://taskAug 12, 2026 2:49 PM
