Ask HN: How do you maintain depth of understanding and velocity when using AI?

There are a number of places where I think AI provides leverage: logical code search, design brainstorming, investigation assistance, and so on.

I always felt uncomfortable running Claude Code or other coding agents directly on my machine, and I didn't want to buy a second computer or rent a VPS just for that. That's why I made SideKernel: a sandbox that tries to be as transparent as poss...
