Is anyone here using this software? How do you integrate it with your agent workflow? Do you run agents in editor (Zed, VS Code, Cursor, whatever)?
Have you tried the sync feature?
Edit: FML why is this being downvoted? At least have the decency of explaining, I'm happy to adjust my conduct but I can't do so if I don't know what I did wrong.
I can only guess at the actions of others, but I would guess it’s because your comment is a tangent and at best only vaguely related to the featured article?
The article is really about solving a particular problem with the backend of their infrastructure. Discussion about VMs, Linux kernel syscalls, file systems (virtual, FUSE, etc) would all be relevant.
Your comment is a question about whether and how people use the software itself, which is pretty unrelated to the article.
It’s a bit like an article about Porsche identifying a particular engineering nuance in their fuel injectors, and how things didn’t work the way they thought at a low level, and how they solved it once they realized it. And then you come in with a comment about what people like to do with their Porsches. Like, sure, it involves the same company but what would that have to do with the underlying article on automotive engineering?
Combine that with a growing disdain for the insistence of certain segments of the tech scene to make everything about agentic workflows, (an echo to the constant evangelism of cryptocurrencies or blockchain in the recent past) and you have a recipe for downvotes.
People are generally sick of AI, and of people who bring AI up in every single comment thread. The downvoters may not realise that TFA is by an AI company, about an AI product, making your comment tangentially relevant, and not (strictly-speaking) an example of the behaviour they're fed up with.
That's such a HN title!
And the content. A number of smart design decisions, and analysis of what was wrong with the previous versions.
Also, it's a great illustration of the benefits of layered, modular design that Linux sports: it allows to mix and match parts to build what you need.
Sounds like a title you’d read on the satirical version of HN in a TV show like Silicon Valley
That's such a Reddit comment!
>Every file operation inside the VM had to bounce out to the host through FUSE
Lol, yeah that was your mistake. FUSE is a phenomenal idea but anyone who has used it knows how slow it can be.
I have learned first hand with my agentic workflow as it took 1 hour to compile rust instead of 6 seconds.
Especially compared to direct virtio access to physical volume.
