The tooling is totally replicated in open source. OpenCode and Letta are two notable examples, but there are surely more. I'm hacking on one in the evenings. OpenCode in particular has huge community support around it- possibly more th

Dumb question: whats the difference between "low-code" and "libraries+frameworks"? Usually the point of a library or framework is to reduce the amount of code you need to write. Giving you more functionality at the cost

Hey HN, hope you enjoy this idea! LLMs are a game-changer, but they’re only half the story: probabilistic and fuzzy. The missing half is a universal formal language: something precise enough to translate cleanly between human languages and

Your alternative is... what exactly? A unique and baroque file format for each application (see: Git)? Folders of JSON or markdown files which are slow, easily corrupted, and lack indexing? Depend on some memory-heavy external DB service li

Looks like it is possible if you do a normal iOS screen recording, then use your app to add the Face Cam and touches on top.

The solution is to build on the traditional web. How does anybody find anything new on the web? Basically: hyperlinks! People will create links from social media. With some basic SEO, your content can be indexed by your favorite search engi

As somebody working in this "future-web" space, I see HUGE issues with the legacy web stack: - It requires a server to publish, which is expensive and difficult for regular users with a laptop or a phone. This can be solved with a

Utilizing p2p tech is not illegal. It is illegal to redistribute copyrighted content without authorization- and we are working to build this into the protocol so that peers will respect copyright by default. People can redistribute at their

I get freaked out when I consider the future of archive.is. Thanks to the nature of the web today, it is incredibly fragile. As the co-creator of a censorship-resistant publishing platform, I really wish we would migrate to a peer-to-peer

I'm confused how you would "build something on ChatGPT" in the first place. Does ChatGPT have an API? Of course OpenAI's GPT-5 and family are available as an API, but this is the first time I'm hearing about the abi

It is honestly ridiculous that "Open WebUI" made it past the US trademark office. https://www.trademarkia.com/open-webui-99027970 If somebody forks this project, I dare you to name it "Open Open Web UI".

It's funny how they mixed in proprietary models like GPT-5 and Anthropic with the "comparable U.S. models". Until they compare open-weight models, NIST is attempting a comparison between apples and airplanes.

A few months ago I was asking myself, why is the "standard" width of a terminal 80 characters? I assumed it had to do with the screen size of some early PCs. But nope, its because a punch card was 80 characters wide. And the first

Developers are entitled to earn more money when they continue working. On the other hand, it is unfair how consumers have frequently needed to re-purchase products that they bought with the impression it would last a long time. At least, th
