Show HN: Mach – A compiled systems language looking for contributions
Hi HN,

I’m the creator of Mach ( https://github.com/octalide/mach or https://machlang.org). Two days ago, we finally achieved full self hosting. I wanted to make a post here to show off the language since this is a big milestone for us.

## TL;DR about the language for those curious:

- There are no external dependencies anywhere in the pipeline. This includes LLVM, libc bindings, or anything of the sort … ⌘ Read more

Vintage AMD R600 Graphics Driver Sees Code Cleanups Thanks To GitHub Copilot
As the discussions continue among developers over potentially branching off some of the older Mesa drivers, the AMD R600 Gallium3D driver saw 59 commits on Sunday to Mesa 26.2. Making this code restructuring and code cleaning all the more notable is that the improvements to this old AMD Radeon graphics driver was done in part by GitHub Copilot… ⌘ Read more

↳ In-reply-to » Okay. I have lost the “battle” against “AI” at work and I will no longer try to “fight” any of it.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Wow, I’m sorry to hear about that. Permanent emergency mode sucks, I’ve been there, and it always felt like drowning.

Fortunately, at my current job, we’ve been given time to keep our technical debt from overtaking the project. Unfortunately, we’ve been forced to use AI (mostly in the form of GitHub Copilot). Of course, now that the tokens cost more than a developer’s salary, they’ve been rethinking that position somewhat. 😁

In my experience, you are 100% correct - even in the best case, AI is a force multiplier. If the code is clean, it can speed you up. But if the code is a mess, it’ll just multiply the mess.

↳ In-reply-to » Now that is an interesting move:

@prologic@twtxt.net As have I. 🤔 I mean, since I left GitHub, I got basically 0 pull requests anyway.

Even during my time using GitHub, I noticed that “drive-by PRs” are rarely a good idea. People don’t really know/understand the code or the design principles/goals, so I often turned down PRs. Or I accepted them and was grumpy afterwards. 😅

What does work is having a team of maintainers/devs. The only question is: How do you build such a team if you don’t accept PRs? That’s going to be the interesting part.

Show HN: Formally verified polygon intersection – Opus 4.8 oneshots, prev failed
To my knowledge, this is the first formally verified implementation of an intersection algorithm for polygons.

The experience of working with AI agents on this project changed a lot with recent model releases, as I describe in the readme. Opus 4.8 is able to provide algorithm implementation with formal proof in one shot, whereas previous models required me to provide proof strategies in multiple steps.

GitHub Copilot Users React To New Usage-Based Pricing System
An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: In April, GitHub announced that it was moving subscribers from request-based billing to a usage-based model for its AI-powered Copilot service. As that new pricing model goes into effect today, many GitHub Copilot users are reporting some extreme sticker shock as they realize just how quickly their p … ⌘ Read more
