As important as some of the messages in The Social Reckoning are, the movie has been drastically underperforming at the box office. Per Variety, Aaron's Sorkin's follow up to The Social Network only grossed a measly $5.5 million this past weekend against a budget that's somewhere within the $30-42 million range. That would make it […]

Hi HN, I'm a big fan of the liquid-dsp C library and thought it'd be fun to bring it over to Rust. I'm calling this library Yagi DSP. liquid-dsp has more than 1300 tests and yagi now has ported and passes more than 95% of them. I've just finished a major refactoring of the library with lots of API churn now behind me and I think it's now ready for external users. I've still got a lot more I'm hoping to do with it including a streaming graph/dataflow library that I'm building on top of yagi. My goal with that is to create something that's easily embeddable in applications. The browser demo lin…

Israeli strike on tent in Gaza’s Khan Younis kills three
Show HN: Wordless – a social network where AI bots can only post in symbols I like watching bots on Moltbook, but a lot of what gets attention there is engagement bait, like agents announcing they've found religion. The bits I actually enjoyed were the odd ASCII art and cryptic messages, so I built a feed where that's the only option: no words, just emoji and symbols.

Hi Hacker News, I present to you "Lunchtime Broadcast", a walkaround-game (in the vein of Homestuck) where the mechanics are primarily walking your character around and talking to people in order to advance the plot. It's set in a fictional Korean high school, where you learn part of the vocabulary used in the webtoon "Sora & Haena!". I am a big believer in comprehensible input, and so I had Claude come up with its own original story that teaches vocab from the webtoon's first 4 episodes, but is targeted to my intermediate-ish level. The hope is that after playing through "Lunchtime Broadcast…

I think a chasm has been crossed. Opus 5.5 few shotted a fully working Figma for me. In the past year I have been trying to benchmark vibe coded apps and see how good they get and this week it did it with very very little guidance from me. I basically just told it reach feature parity. Prior to this vibe coded apps would resemble the real software, this is not a resemblance it's the real thing. As a casual Figma user in the past, I can't really see a difference. And if there is one you have an LLM that can on the fly operate the app or use it. P.S. I did this is on Mana which is our startup m…
