Show HN: Pi-Infinite-Contexthttps://github.com/fdietze/pi-infinite-context

Hi HN! Since I created this extension and heavily refined its core design, I'm not worrying about context size anymore. It just works so well. So I wanted to share. It is stress-tested with OpenAI and Anthropic models. Since HN is sensitive to good readmes, I wanted to do it well here. I started writing it by hand, but noticed that it was not great. then I decided to go back to LLM help, but iterate on it until it was short, simple and readable. I hope you like it. In this process I had an insight about AI generated content. Slop is not only the fact that AI was used, but that the creator did…

Show HN: I track all 121k Skool communities to find community creator leadshttps://www.skoolstats.com

Bit niche, but if you're in the community or creator space this might be useful. I run a daily scraper of all 121,000 Skool.com communities and track their growth rates. Agencies use it to filter down to build lead lists for services, and comm owners use it to see where their community ranks by niche or search term. Also there's a bulk email finder/export. It's a bit like Apollo mixed with SEO/ASO rank tools, but for communities/groups. It's paid (scraping costs, plus many months of my dev time). Happy to answer any questions or comments.

The tech bros and their highly paid sock puppets are banking on us giving in to their β€˜inevitability doctrine’. But in Australia, and around the world, resistance is rising Of all the drivers of the populist wave, one of the most powerful is the sense of inevitability that surrounds what we are told is the march of progress.
