Ask HN: Has AI changed the quality of HN posts?

Hacker News - Sun, 07/12/2026 - 3:12pm

I thought AI-generated content would making online discussion worse (which it definitely does on some platforms), but I haven’t noticed a meaningful drop in the quality of Hacker News posts or comments. Have you?

Show HN: Kote – Capture and reuse engineering context from AI chats and Git

Hacker News - Sun, 07/12/2026 - 2:56pm

I kept running into the same problem: I'd solve something with the help of an AI assistant, spend time debugging an issue, or make an architectural decision... and a few weeks later I couldn't remember where that information was. Most of the time I simply didn't bother saving it anywhere.

So I built Kote to capture that context automatically instead of relying on me to document it.

Right now it can capture AI chats (Antigravity, Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode) from the VS Code extension or CLI, analyze Git pushes, retrieve historical context during Pull Requests, save quick text or voice notes through WhatsApp, and make everything searchable from the web app or directly from VS Code.

Kote can be self-hosted and works with your own LLM provider, though I've primarily tested it with Gemini.

I'm curious how other people handle this. Do you use another tool or workflow to preserve this kind of engineering context?

Claude Code sends 33k tokens before reading the prompt; OpenCode sends 7k

Hacker News - Sun, 07/12/2026 - 2:25pm

This started based off of a hunch. We usually use OpenCode, but were 'forced' to use Claude Code for a while due to issues with Meridian. In that time, we saw the usage meter rise much, much more quickly than when using OpenCode.

This was the initial anecdotal evidence, but we undertook this small study to collect empirical data:

We added logging between the agentic coding tool (Claude Code and OpenCode) and Anthropic's endpoint, and captured all requests (and the returned usage blocks).

With one caveat (toward the end of the post) we found unambiguously that Claude Code was far more inefficient in terms of its cache strategy and its harness token usage than OpenCode.

Greetings from Apex. We have begun developing zeroOS, a highly powerful, performance-oriented system that contains absolutely no telemetry data. We plan to announce the initial technical specifications around October 23 and release the full version around January 6. APEXBYTE STUDIOS
