With many adults admitting they feel lonely, meetup platforms offer the chance to make new connections Would you pay £20 a month for the chance of making a friend, on the understanding that an algorithm – not you – gets to decide who you’ll meet?

Hey all, The goal is to earn on token margins for LLM calls when you build an AI-powered webapp. I proxy OpenAI and Anthropic calls so that when you deploy a site to a subdomain, your users token usage will be tracked. I charge 2x the token cost to the end user, where the webapp creator gets 80% of the profit and I get 20%. The idea is to ramp your revenue from simple AI apps directly with your popularity and real usage I've built this over the last 3 years. The system behind it is kind of crazy: I use Abstract Syntax Trees and have the LLM write AST transformation code to implement code chan…
Hey, Hacker News. I just want to pick your brain for a feature we're working on. I don't know whether you have seen this as a pain point, but when I work in a company, a lot of times I try to launch something and need to change a DNS record. It's always a source of friction in the organization. I have to email someone or give a link to a co-worker. They have to figure out how to do it, but also whether I have a business justification for doing it. So, when we built this platform, we're trying to come up with a feature that makes it easier. Someone can send you a proposal for DNS record update…

Hello HN, After seeing all of the pushback and negative sentiment regarding GitHub and its poor reliability and everyone trying to move off of it, I decided to build this to make the transition easier. It's the second half of a two-part project. Shotgun ( https://github.com/ThatXliner/shotgun ) diffs two OpenAPI specs and auto-maps what lines up, which turns out to be 60-80% of endpoints when both APIs are in the same domain. Anvil is the opinionated result of running that on GitHub vs Forgejo and then hand-fixing everything the auto-mapping got wrong or couldn't express. Landing page with a…

It actually cost our team a lot of time and tokens to wrestle it to just speak like a normal human. We used skills, as well as initial prompts and subagents to make sure that all of the tics were gone, but there was one too many times where it just wouldn't fix itself despite telling it in the prior prompt! I made speak-english based off of https://github.com/gvzdv/claudish-to-english/commits/main/ and it runs a qwen model on my gcp servers. It can conve…
