Ask HN: Do you feel comfortable admitting that you use AI?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49346906AI took the industry by storm, and naturally this generates a lot of resistance. The way I see this resistance expressing itself is in the form of certain feeling of superiority by those who refuse to use it, and a feeling of shame when admitting to using AI assistance for writing code.However, I would argue (even though I have no data back this claim up) that most developers either choose to use it or are required by their employers. I can't predict the future, so I don't know if this is an ASM vs. C kind of moment, or if those giving in to the convenience will regret it years down the line when their skills atrophy.Me personally, I use it and I feel more productive than ever. That said I can't help but feeling a bit of shame when admitting that. Hearing so many people say that AI-generated code is unusable and fixing it takes longer than writing it by hand, makes me wonder if they are working on a very specific field or I just have skill issues. Or maybe both.How much AI are you usinAug 18, 2026 3:16 PM

I made a secure way for agents to request secrets from you using HyperDHThttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49346770Hi all,I kinda got sick of having to give secrets to my agents and all the potential leakage in the pipeline (with the harness, the model router, the model provider, the training set, the chat application etc etc) so I decided to make peardrop.fyi - this tool allows your agent to declaratively generate secret request pages/links which you can fill in via web or CLI. The agent can determine a script that runs once the values are received or can put them in a target folder. This is useful if you want to put something in your machine vault/keychain without either giving access to the credentials or the browser to the agent.here is the repo: https://github.com/smashah/peardrop(cli, core and self-hostable relay are all open source)Aug 18, 2026 3:08 PM
