We run a crawler that checks how public websites are set up. Things like whether HTTPS is enforced, when the certificate expires, which TLS version is offered, what security headers are set, how cookies are flagged, and where redirects go. If it has been hitting your servers, you probably want to know what it is. So we wrote the whole thing down on one page: echelongraph.io/bot It covers how often it visits a single host, how it handles robots.txt and Retry-After, which address it comes from, what it will never do, and how to opt out with a DNS record. No signup, no popup. Two notes on the op…

I am working on a very modular typesetting engine called TeLoX, intended as a superset of the capabilities (of at least) XeTeX and pdfLaTeX, written in Rust. The main goals are modularity and speed (which we know sometimes fight each other unless we try to be principled about it). Today I wanted to demonstrate these diegetic interactive sliders that control values within in LaTeX from the browser (kinda like marimo). This isn't meant to be a complete editor like quicklatex and texlyre -- just a tiny playground that loads quickly enough and responds interactively to see how good I can get the…

My wife kept getting some random-seeming notification sounds on her macbook that we couldn't identify - a little quarter second "bloop" that would play and then go away without any trace we could find. So I made (prompted) this app that will listen to the audio on the system and identify the sound. It will identify system sounds and use system logs to try to work out what caused it, it will tell you which apps were making sounds when the sound is played, it will look in app bundles for sound files that contain the sound it heard. If the source is the web browser and you install the bundled br…

Hi, I made Opine ( https://opinepolls.com ), a poll-based social media site. Each post is a public poll asking users their opinion on something, anonymously, so no user sees any other user's information, but you can freely browse other polls. Private polls can also be made. The only information actually stored is the email, from Google sign in, and an approximate location for the map feature, if you enable it. This allows you to see a world map of votes, what opinions are present in what places. The intent is to catalog the world's opinions, organizing people's public thoughts so they're easy…

From floating reactors to brain chips: VCs picked their favorite YC startups from the summer batch.
Hi HN. We built a QA platform for AI agents. My cofounder spent 6 years at Veeva Systems building QA frameworks for regulated software. I spent 5 years in sales helping AI-native startups with their growth. We've both seen the issues companies face when deploying agents without a structured way of testing and monitoring them. The engineering teams we interviewed prior to building said they are doing manual spot-checks or just using LLM as a judge to check discrepancies. We generate synthetic test environments for 35 platforms (Salesforce, Jira, Stripe, Zendesk, Datadog, and 29 more). Each env…
