I’m building Zuse, an open source workspace for coding agents I gave one lead agent 20 Linear issues. It created separate workspaces and started a different coding agent in each one.

I'm really a beginner: I can key at about 15 WPM and am practicing for 20, but I'm still making mistakes, with an extra dit or dah here and there. Thanks to all the YLs and OMs who have worked with me so far! I'm able to decode Morse with pen and paper, as long as it's only 10–15 WPM, but that needs to improve. Most operators recognize CQ without even knowing Morse. I have already learned a few more phrases just by hearing them, like "TEST", "DE", "PSE K", "BK", "BT", etc. Nevertheless, I…

Show HN: Active Source of Truth for Your Coding Agentshttps://meetless.ai

Howdy! Happy Saturday everyone! As a solo founder, I have always tried to maximize my speed by letting coding agents build as much as possible in parallel. However, as an engineer, I don't trust that AI will always make the right decisions and work with the right context. In the past, I always needed to click through my sessions to glance at the AI's output, try to understand what it was doing, and hopefully steer it or stop it in time. As a result, the maximum number of concurrent sessions I could manage at once was only 4. I didn't want to be the bottleneck, so I built Meetless Agent (MLA).…

Black holes keep tearing these stars apart, but they survivehttps://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/08/260822015119.htm

Astronomers have found stars that repeatedly skim past supermassive black holes, surviving each encounter while producing a new burst of light. In some systems, those flares mysteriously fade with every return. Researchers now think the key may be stars that were already spinning extremely fast before being captured. That rapid rotation could explain both the fading flares and how the stars ended up in such extraordinarily tight black hole orbits.
