We Replaced Every Tool Claude Code Ships Withhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47468649Claude Code ships with Bash, Read, Write, Edit, Glob, Grep, WebFetch, Task, Plan. For a single agent on a single task, they're fine. Once you're running a multi-agent system, the defaults break fast.The problems we hit:1) No cross-repo exploration. Want an agent to read another project's code? You need to manually configure permissions. There's no "go explore this OSS repo and answer my question."2) Summarized web fetching. WebFetch is actually a subagent that summarizes a single page into a haiku-length response. Can't trace links or browse related pages. Fetches fresh every time — no caching.3) Text-level editing. Edit has fuzzy matching, which helps — but it's still raw text. When tree-sitter can give you an AST with named symbols, why make the model reproduce strings to target a function?4) Ephemeral tasks and plans. Tasks don't persist outside the session. Plans vanish when context resets. Neither supports multi-round review or structured editing.5) Flat delegation. The Agent toolMar 21, 2026 4:44 PM

Plasmasphere compressed by recent geomagnetic superstorm dramatically slowed recoveryhttps://www.spacedaily.com/reports/Plasmasphere_compressed_by_recent_geomagnetic_superstorm_dramatically_slowed_recovery_999.htmlTokyo, Japan (SPX) Nov 21, 2025 Researchers have detailed how a geomagnetic superstorm on May 10-11, 2024, shrank Earth's plasmasphere, a protective zone of charged particles, to just one-fifth of its normal size. The event, named the Gannon storm or Mother's Day storm, was the most powerful in over twenty years.

Help choose which Linux distro saves the earth from alien invasion.https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6880434This post is for something I have made. So it is, by definition, self promoting. But I know many of you will be interested. So, with that in mind, I'm going to post it anyway.I have almost finished a novel. And I need help getting some dedicated writing time to get the last ~10k words down and final edits in place.The book, “Steve’s Laptop”, is a Sci-Fi Comedy about a developer named Steve who, while working at “the world’s largest software company” near Seattle, is trying to save the world from an alien invasion. Primarily with his laptop. Hence the title.If I were forced to compare it to something I would call it: “They Live” + “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” + “The IT Crowd“.I'm holding a "Help me finish this book" sale/fundraiser. A pay-what-you-want deal where you get my existing books, and get a chance to take part in shaping a small part of the book itself.Specifically, you get to vote on which Linux distro is used on "Steve's Laptop".
