Show HN: Sib - Unixy LLM Client using Git to store converastions, instead SQLitehttps://github.com/sib-project/sibHi all :)The reason I like git is that the source tree snapshot and the commit structure itself are always immutable, and destructive operations are just renaming a ref file.Once you understand that, no matter how hard the CLI is to make sense of, you never hesitate to run a command. You can always get it back.LLM conversations aren't as fragile to change as a source tree, but for me an auto-generated SHA-1 hash is more comforting than an auto-generated session title ^~^The project is in its early stages and contributions are welcome. If you've worked with git plumbing commands, it'll be easy to hack on - and I think it'll be pretty fun.Original: https://github.com/sib-project/sib/blob/master/Documentation...Aug 16, 2026 3:35 PM

Show HN: AlertChecker – get emailed when a plain-English statement comes truehttps://alertchecker.comI built AlertChecker to help address a limitation with AI chatbots - they only respond when you've asked them something. You talk to them and they talk back. I wanted a way for them to tell you something of interest another time, when you're not even in a conversation.For example, type a statement like "the iPhone 16 Pro is back in stock at apple.com" or "it's going to rain in London tomorrow," and AlertChecker uses AI models with live web search to monitor it periodically. You'll then be emailed when it becomes true. No scraping rules to configure, no specific site integrations to pick, just a sentence in plain English.It's a Next.js web app with a small Node backend service doing the actual checking in a continuous loop. There's also an MCP server, so if you use Claude or ChatGPT you can create alerts by just asking in a normal conversation instead of opening the site.The number of checks is currently limited overall while I keep an eye on costs, so it's shared across everyone using Aug 16, 2026 7:48 AM

What works?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49313346Hey everyone, I am a 20 year old college student who was recently diagnosed with seronegative spondyloarthropathy. Over the last 3 years, Ive tried apps, paper journal, Google Sheets, and notes to track/catalogue my journey. I always ended up quitting within 2-4 weeks and not keeping accurate track.Is this a common experience or do I just have to be better at tracking? Is there a unique/non habit-building way to track/catalogue/recall?Im building something for this (part of the reason why I am asking) - and if anyone is open to a longer conversation, Ill gladly pay for you time!Aug 15, 2026 7:09 PM
