Liked on XI made a mistake. When Jack and I decided to organize this $100K Hackathon, my biggest concern was cheating. Unlike a regular hackathon, everyone participates from home. And because the winner is whoever makes the most PROFIT (not revenue), there are so many ways to manipulate the numbers. So I added a $99 entry fee. One thing I’ve learned from building businesses is that people tend to be more committed when they pay for something. I thought it would filter out spam, attract serious builders, and make the competition fairer for everyone. But I completely missed the other side. 3 years ago, I was a living with my apps. Today, I’m financially free. My life changed so much that somewhere along the way, I lost perspective on what $99 means to someone else. For someone in India, someone struggling to pay their bills, or someone trying to make their first dollar online, $99 can be a lot of money. And those are exactly the people I want to help! I’ve spent years sharing what I’ve learned, reviewing random people’s landing pages, and organizing free meetups around the world. Not because there’s money to make, but because I genuinely love seeing people build things and succeed. And somehow, I was so focused on keeping cheaters out that I didn’t realize I was also keeping genuine builders out. That’s my mistake. So I’ve decided to make the $100K Hackathon completely FREE :) Everyone who already paid got a full refund. I’m still worried about cheating. That problem hasn’t disappeared, and Jack and I will have to figure out better ways to verify profits and keep the leaderboard fair. But that’s our problem to solve. Thank you to everyone who shared their thoughts. Sometimes you need people to remind you of things you’ve forgotten. I genuinely hope this hackathon changes someone’s life. ❤️Liked on XIt’s time to bring back Cafe CursorPosted on Xyo @pendev i can't live share edit a .pen file? it's the most needed featurePosted on XI'm coining a word "Agentsplaining" Agents condescendingly assuming the user don't know fuck and repeating the obviousReplied on X@jayhxmo @raycast Hard to explain.

Challenge them. - What can be deleted entirely? - What can be simplified now that unnecessary pieces are gone? Then make the changes. Prefer deleting over simplifying, simplifying over optimizing, and optimizing over automating. This product is being used by thousands of customers, do not cut any corners." This prompt is one I run often and leads to the best results.Replied on X@akshayadinesh19 @bot can we please BYOM for botsLiked on XTo be fair, the Chinese models have a much lower refusal rateLiked on XF*CK IT, im creating a library of AI slop indicators. my feed is full of taste larpers. stay tuned https://t.co/5Muv8nQRm3Liked on XJENSEN! THATS NOT WHAT WE MEANT BY CHINESE MODELS!!!!!!!Liked on Xmy parents had to declare bankruptcy when I was a kid, so they had every reason to pressure me towards a more stable career path instead, they were so patient with me, even as i failed startup after startup for years so getting to tell my mom that everything turned out okay was a really special moment :) for those who can't read Korean, her first message roughly translates to: "Really!!! Congratulations my son. So much :') Thank you God!" i know I've been posting about my exit for like a week now, but it really is a big deal for me and my family! i'll share more about how this all happened and some tactical advice later this week, but for now i'm just riding out all the emotions to quote my mom, thank you God!!!!Liked on X@thefarmers_Dog it stands for Egg GzampleLiked on X🦍 Introducing Memorilla: memory as a modality for LLMs Memorilla turns everything a frozen LLM needs to remember into just 16 memory embeddings ⚡ It uses up to 4,212× fewer tokens and is 27× faster than full context inference while more accurate 🎯 Pushes the Pareto frontier over RAG and agentic memory in personalization, long-document and knowledge QA A thread 🧵:Liked on XThere's a huge product opportunity downstream of Tailscale etc too. At @tldraw we've started designing for "high trust networks" and it's been a beautiful thing. 1. Features that would be a nightmare on the internet are okay on my computer and mostly okay on private networks. Websites that execute user-generated scripts, control production systems, allow for users to send desktop notifications, spend tokens, or directly prompt my agent. Crazy stuff that would only make sense if everyone was in a committed polycule. 2. When everyone on the server can be trusted to have _external_ reasons for good behavior (eg keeping their job, or maintaining friends, family, church, mafia org), the software can be designed in a default social way. Most apps default to isolation, low horizontal visibility, highly restricted collaboration. Makes sense if the social contracts are inside of the app, but if you can trust that they live outside of the app then you can get wild. Example being small group chat names as an emergent comedy phenomenon because anyone in the group can change the name. 3. This can work for commercial products, too, not just internal stuff. Security matters more than ever but the way we've seen that manifest is that more companies are more confident in their own solutions than anything we could provide, to the point where owning data and access is a better value proposition than having it managed. Always has been true for big companies but now even small companies can get a good secure network set up pretty easily, and the hooks we need to build are easy enough. tldraw offline got us started down this road (and shout out to @pendev for first introducing me to the idea of desktop + mcp). We've been bringing that product to private networks and it's been exciting to see how much we can get away with. Keep an eye outReplied on X@saradu birds eye viewLiked on XApplications close in 2 days!! If you have a cool bio idea, and $5-10k will go a long way for you, please apply!!! https://t.co/NCvmrNC53cLiked on XWe've been early adopters of Rust since 2018 and a lot of our infra, voice tech, and even some of the current client is already Rust, the holy grail was getting the whole client there. That means Electron goes away, and so does React Native, mobile keeps native UI but shares app code with desktop via Rust. We hope to get it into testing with users soon™. (And it's not Tauri, it's GPUI, so good guess everyone.) Alright, back to staring at the WoW Forever login screen.Reposted on XOh boy. https://t.co/X7SSskGuGvLiked on XRIP .si domain squatters
Project Heimdall

Project Heimdall

Heimdall's All-Seeing Eyes -- Heimdall sees and hears, all thanks to his extrasensory capabilities. His sight can extend across all Nine Realms, and he can see 10 trillion souls from the Bifrost Observatory. Asgardians call him from other worlds, such as Earth, Jotunheim, and Sakaar.

Implemented Nav bar!

  • Implemented Login with Clerk

  • 7BF55A

  • The useLocaleRedirect caused some problems when a user landed on Heimdall in a non-English locale context and logged in

    • Clerk needs some initial load time, for example, 2s, for the Clerk Login SDK to load
    • After logging in, conditionally loading <SignIn> caused an Error on Clerk, that rendering <SignIn> when users are logged in is illegal. Thus, Clerk was redirected to the default locale. This happened within the next 2 seconds when Clerk figured that it was logged in and when React was unmounting the <SignIn> widget.
    • Because useLocaleRedirect sends to English by default, the original locale will be lost
    • To get over this, I created two features:
      • Save to local storage on the user's locale
      • within the useEffect hook (Warning: Cannot update during an existing state transition (such as within render). Render methods should be a pure function of props and state.)
      • 11C976

  • Also used HOC to inject callback when <SignIn> gets dismissed. Do I have to do this? Really?

    tsx
    const withUnmountFunction = (WrappedComponent, onUnmount) => {
  return function (props) {
    useEffect(() => {
      return () => {
        if (typeof onUnmount === 'function') {
          onUnmount()
        }
      }
    }, [])
    return <WrappedComponent {...props} />
  }
}
    tsx
    const SignInWithUnmountFunction = withUnmountFunction(SignIn, () => {
  setSignInOpen(false)
})

Created an MSA-style micro worker that will continuously fetch, load, and summarize HN contents!

I was very close to shutting down all small locales. It costs too much while driving me so little value. People are spamming the mailing list by enrolling in all lists. I thought all small locale lists were like that so far. But then... I found one Danish user.

This person was the only one on the Danish list.

But... it changed my mind. I was moved. Ok... I'll keep the small-medium sprachraums.

Every hour, the processor will:

  • For all that is
    • non-deleted
    • has a non-deleted subscriber
  • Get content from the web
  • Generate Summary
  • Send Email

Also, instead of having one that could be transformed into many languages, let's start with 30 different covering the same content. That is, separating the linguistic UI from the content. So in a Korean interface, you can go to Hacker News Japanese version and read the content accordingly.

Completed the Engine.

  • Cron notation?

Halted, switched to a more conventional with Listmonk. Consider Done.
