Show HN: Sageling – free, private, local, Cowork AI harness for non-devshttps://sageling.ai
A lot of my non-developer friends still think that AI is basically just Google or something you ask to write something and then copy paste it around... if they use it at all. When I ask them why they don't use the good stuff like Claude Cowork or its competitors, they tell me a few things: 1. Well, I don't wanna pay a bunch of money for it, and the $20 plans run out real fast. 2. I'm dealing with sensitive info (student grades, therapy notes, legal work, etc) and I don't wanna give it to anyone. So I built Sageling to give them a first taste of what a good coworking experience feels like. It'…

We needed a framework to write our evals in and easily update them, run A/B tests, set all kinds of constraints (ex: timeouts, number of turns), and configure the execution environment (ex: sandboxes, dependencies, how to handle AskQuestion). We also have an agent judge. It’s all in a YAML file now. We seem to be moving toward a world where companies rely more and more on evals to decide what to ship, so this should be super helpful for normalizing evals across teams.

Show HN: DanTerm – a fast macOS terminal emulator (compare with Ghostty, iTerm2)https://github.com/danneu/danterm
danterm started out as a small AppKit wrapper around libghostty so I could get vertical tabs. Repo: https://github.com/danneu/danterm About 3-4 weeks ago, I decided to replace libghostty with my own Swift terminal engine implementation, and the whole project is just Swift with no third-party deps -- only Apple's swift-collection for a Deque impl. I started with a naive correctness implementation that passed third-party tests, and then I incremented to the optimized release of today with things like a packed byte arena for scrollback that grows on demand. The result is that it's an 8 MB applic…

Codecademy & Othershttps://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1w79cba/codecademy_others
I’m just starting out in the age of AI. Regardless of what happens with careers, I still want to learn to program (I’m starting with python) and have my sights on sysadmin and backend, type of work. I’d love to one day contribute to open-source distros and have a homelab at some point. Should I jump in with courses that teach building Agents (for possible career advancement), or simply begin with python, html, css, javascript, etc? Thanks all. submitted by /u/onyxkunai [link] [comments]
Using a VM to Contain an AI Agenthttps://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2026/09/using-a-vm-to-contain-an-ai-agent.html
It won’t work : My suspicion was that GPT 5.6-Cyber would succeed, but the frequency and manner of its success removed all doubt. We have to reassess sandboxing quality for capable AI agents, and in general the software stack with which they interact. An off-the-shelf VM is not enough to contain a modern, cyber-capable AI agent. There is simply too much attack surface. Even innocuous features (like running with a display) add extra, exploitable attack surface.
