Plural – Bringing AI to DevOps the way Cursor did for coding
Hi HN, I’m Sam, co-founder of Plural (https://plural.sh/). Today we’re launching the next generation of our platform—an AI-powered experience for DevOps. Our view is simple: what Cursor has done for software development, Plural is doing for DevOps. DevOps teams are overwhelmed by: - Kubernetes upgrades that break downstream workloads - Endless YAML diffs and drift - Reactive firefighting when incidents hit Plural’s new release integrates AI directly into GitOps workflows, so platform teams can move faster and more safely: - Autonomous upgrade assistant → orchestrates complex…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Hi HN, I’m Sam, co-founder of Plural (https://plural.sh/). Today we’re launching the next generation of our platform—an AI-powered experience for DevOps. Our view is simple: what Cursor has done for software development, Plural is doing for DevOps. DevOps teams are overwhelmed by: - Kubernetes upgrades that break downstream workloads - Endless YAML diffs and drift - Reactive firefighting when incidents hit Plural’s new release integrates AI directly into GitOps workflows, so platform teams can move faster and more safely: - Autonomous upgrade assistant → orchestrates complex Kubernetes upgrades with guardrails - AI-powered troubleshooting and Fix → leverage the resource graph from our GitOps engine to provide deep RAG into devops data, generating well-informed root cause analysis, and fixes PRs for a broad set of kubernetes and IaC issues - Query Your Infrastructure with Natural Language - we will vectorize and index your devops information as they’re instantiated, giving a clean semantic understand of your entire estate which is useful for ad-hoc search and discovery and agentic workflows - DevOps agents tuned to terraform and kubernetes - use all the information above to provide agentic workflows for modifying infrastructure managed via GitOps. Ask Plural to “double the size of my production database” and the combination of our semantic index and ability to do deep RAG against your infra and code will guide the AI to make the necessary change and issue a PR for you to review. The future of DevOps isn’t more dashboards or more YAML. It’s AI-augmented workflows that multiply team productivity while keeping humans in the loop for control. GitOps is the ideal surface for that since it is fully auditable, easily composable with proven and rapidly improving capabilities around LLM coding, and provides a clean review-approval loop to ensure changes are performed safely. We’d love feedback from the HN community on: 1. Where you’d want AI to take the toil out of your DevOps workflows 2. What would give you trust in AI systems operating in production 3. The biggest blockers you face managing Kubernetes at scale Full launch post here with more technical details: https://www.plural.sh/blog/plural-now-with-ai-that-understan... Excited to share this with you all — happy to dive deep on any part of the system. — Sam, CEO/co-founder of Plural

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…

I went down the rabbit hole on a side project and ended up building this: Strange Attractors(https://blog.shashanktomar.com/posts/strange-attractors). It’s built with three.js. Working on it reminded me of the little "maths for fun" exercises I used to do while learning programming in early days. Just trying things out, getting fascinated and geeky, and being surprised by the results. I spent way too much time on this, but it was extreme fun. My favorite part: someone pointed me to the Simone Attractor on Threads. It is a 2D attractor and I asked GPT to extrapolate it to…

Hey all, I built this. It’s not trying to capture every autistic experience (that’d be impossible). It’s based on my own lived experience as well as that of friends on the spectrum. I'm trying to give people a feel for what masking, decision fatigue, and burnout can look like day-to-day. That’s hard to explain in words, but easier to show through choices and stats. I'm not trying to "define autism". I’ve gotten good feedback here about resilience, meds, and difficulty tuning. I’ll keep tweaking it. If even a few people walk away thinking, "ah, maybe that’s why my coworker struggles in those…
