AI Manifesto

With massive respect to Jeff Sutherland and all the thought leaders who met at a ski lodge in Snowbird, Utah, in 2001 and created the Agile Manifesto - it might be time to revisit / refresh / revitalize the Agile Manifesto in light of the emergence of LLMs. The scarce resource is no longer programming capacity, but organizational clarity and architectural coherence. As a thought exercise (and for fun) I took a stab at it. I would love to get some collaborative feedback to improve it. Of course I do not expect this to replace the Agile Manifesto but I'd like to use it when speaking…

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

With massive respect to Jeff Sutherland and all the thought leaders who met at a ski lodge in Snowbird, Utah, in 2001 and created the Agile Manifesto - it might be time to revisit / refresh / revitalize the Agile Manifesto in light of the emergence of LLMs. The scarce resource is no longer programming capacity, but organizational clarity and architectural coherence. As a thought exercise (and for fun) I took a stab at it. I would love to get some collaborative feedback to improve it. Of course I do not expect this to replace the Agile Manifesto but I'd like to use it when speaking to enterprises about how to think about Agile in today's world. So any/all comments welcome! ps - posted on my blog because of convenience. It is not monetized in any way. No ads, nothing. Cheers!

    An addendum to the Agile Manifesto for the AI eraMar 2026 · github.com · ▲7

    I'm a VP of Engineering with 20 years in the field. I've been thinking deeply on why AI is breaking every engineering practice, and it led me to the conclusion that the Agile Manifesto's values need updating. The core argument: AI made producing software cheap, but understanding it is still expensive. The Manifesto optimizes for the former. This addendum shifts the emphasis toward the latter. Four updated values, three refined principles, with reasoning for each. Happy to discuss and defend any of it.

    Think, CL tool that makes AI your command line copilot (written in Go)2023 · github.com · ▲14

    Hi HN, I'm thrilled to share with you think, a command-line tool that I developed while diving back into the programming scene. For the past few years, my focus had shifted from hands-on programming to managerial roles, my last one being at Affirm (I started Affirm's Polish office). However, I recently left my job to revisit my passion for coding and see if I could still write code that works. Not to mention that with what is currently going on in AI if you are a developer this probably the best possible time for a sabbatical in human history :) My first attempt was with LangChain, but I…

    A friend and I are launching an alpha first thing in 2011. We're trying to gain some momentum and whatnot, so we're opening early registration as of tonight. We're planning to develop a Bayesian network to derive suggestions. If you're interested in seeing our progress, check it out. Edit: Any and all suggestions, criticism, advice, etc is highly appreciated!

    Hey HN! Thank you for all the support and feedback on my original submission 2 months ago. I've been improving the backend using a MCTS/AlphaZero approach and it's currently producing much better results. My long term goal is to allow users to manage multiple projects, deployed autonomously, both from scratch and by making continual updates all prompted with natural language. The cost of each project has been lowered to $9 as performance with smaller models has improved (I migrated from Claude-3-Opus to gemini-1.5-flash). Thanks for checking it out!

    Roundtable – A rubber duck that argues with itselfDec 2025 · roundtable.ovlo.ai · ▲6

    Hey HN, I'm a founder at Ovlo a supply chain company.I had a problem. After every batch of customer interviews/research/feedback sessions, I'd run ideas through an LLM to help me decide what we should build next. Except it was obvious to my cofounder I wasn't really validating anything. LLMs are incredibly good at agreeing with you in subtle ways, especially when you feed them context that already reflects your thoughts. I'd ask "Does this make sense?" and get a beautifully worded essay about why yes, obviously, this is the best thing ever. I was using AI as an echo chamber without…

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

  • Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…

    Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!
