Show HN: We open-sourced our internal tool for scoring PRs with Claude AIHi HN! I'm sharing MergeMint, an open-source platform we built at TextCortex AI to automatically evaluate and score pull requests using Claude AI.The problem we had: Our engineering team lacked visibility into contribution impact, and performance reviews felt subjective. We wanted objective metrics without the overhead of manual PR reviews.How it works: When a PR merges, MergeMint analyzes the diff, linked issues, and commits using Claude AI. It classifies component/severity, calculates a score, posts feedback on the PR, and updates team leaderboards.The results after 6 months: • 3x increase in developer engagement with our internal bug bounty program • Team members actively compete on leaderboards (gamification really works!) • Performance reviews now backed by concrete contribution data • We caught and rewarded high-impact work that was flying under the radarThe scoring is fully configurable – we defined our components (auth, API, UI) with multipliers and severity levels (P0-P3) with

Show HN: GitHired – Find Your Next 10x EngineerHey HN - today I’m launching GitHired. A hiring platform that ranks developers based on what they actually build — not what they claim on a PDF. It’s called GitHired, and here’s the core idea: GitHub > ResumesInstead of trusting “proficient in React” bullet points, we analyze a candidate’s actual GitHub: their real tech stacktheir most complex projectshow active they arewhat kinds of contributions they makewhich skills match your job descriptionand yes, we detect fake “green square farming.”Why we built thisBecause engineering hiring is broken. Resumes are inflated. Activity charts are gamed. ATS filters reward keywords, not skill. And companies end up spending weeks interviewing the wrong people. Developers deserve a fairer signal. Recruiters deserve to know who can actually build things. And teams deserve better than guessing.We’re live today If you’re hiring engineers - or you are an engineer and want to see your “real” GitHub profile - try it. (No waitlist. No paywall surprise. Jus

Show HN: Read Sort and Write Parquet Faster Than DuckDB in JavaI built a tool in Java that reads, sorts, and writes flat Parquet files faster than DuckDB, using a new Java Parquet driver called ParquetForge.Performance is achieved through column-wise reordering and parallel algorithms. Sort order is computed using fastutil’s parallel radix or quicksorts, and columns are reordered in parallel as well. Parquet-Sort outperforms DuckDB when sorting a 59M-row Parquet file generated by TPC-H by about 25% when compiled by graalvm native-image and about 12% faster when run with the latest Corretto 24 JVM.More details, benchmarks, and source code are available here: https://github.com/Earnix/parquet-sort All code is under the Apache 2.0 license.Would love feedback, ideas, or contributions.

Show HN: Modos Developer Kit Live on Crowd SupplyToday, we’re launching our first product on Crowd Supply: a fast, open-hardware dev kit for driving e-ink displays.It supports 75Hz refresh, both color and monochrome panels, and more.This all started with a post on Hacker News about building an e-ink laptop. That post led to conversations with makers, minimalists, and others exploring how e-ink could fit into daily life, or help with personal health challenges. From those conversations came a community, which grew into a project, became a company, and brought us to today’s launch.We bootstrapped from the beginning, pushing through COVID shutdowns, chip shortages, shipping delays, and adapting to every new challenge along the way.We haven’t built the e-ink laptop yet, but we’ve built a foundation for creating high-performance e-ink devices.We’re sharing our small contribution today in hopes that it helps make e-ink more open and accessible.Thanks for being part of the journey.

The Lost Path to SeniorhoodThere’s big news today from the Linux kernel community. Sasha Levin — long-time contributor, LTS co-maintainer, and now at NVIDIA — just proposed a set of AI contribution guidelines for the kernel. The idea is to introduce documentation and configuration files that help AI coding assistants like Claude and Grok properly participate in kernel development. With it comes rules on attribution and contribution etiquette when AI gets involved.It tries to manage the inevitable: AI tools are already being used to write patches. Ignoring that reality doesn’t make it go away.But while this might feel like just another practical policy change, there’s a deeper, one we can’t afford to ignore in the open source world:What happens to the juniors?https://www.gizvault.com/archives/the-lost-path-to-seniorhood

Ask HN: I'm considering open-sourcing my UI library – how to generate income?Hi HN,I'm the creator of CoreUI (https://coreui.io) — a UI components library and admin template system that enhances Bootstrap with modern improvements like Sass Modules support, advanced components, and dedicated versions for React, Vue, and Angular.We’re not a side project. CoreUI is developed and maintained full-time by a small team of professionals. Unlike many OSS UI libraries that are built "after hours," we invest full-time engineering resources into improving, documenting, and supporting the library. This level of commitment is what allows us to deliver production-quality UI components and provide enterprise-grade support.We currently follow a mixed model: free + paid (PRO) templates. But now I’m considering open-sourcing the entire UI components library to grow adoption and foster community contributions.My concern is funding. Going fully open source would remove the current paid entry point — and I still need to pay salaries and keep the team sustainable.Questions for HN:1.

Ask HN: What projects do you donate to?With the Internet rapidly undergoing its corpocene mass extinction event, the few initiatives trying to keep the web and the software ecosphere habitable depends mostly on individual contributions.Traditionally, advertising your charitable contributions might be seen as distasteful virtue signalling for which one has already earned their reward. However, I think in the cultural context of digital initiatives, it’s actually helpful and quite important to show off what you have been donating to, it is a much stronger signal to draw people’s attention to important projects by word of mouth.Thus, this thread is intended to be a celebration of your personal contributions to initiatives towards digital freedom.Think of it as an “MyAnimeList for donations”, or a “Goodreads for open projects”, list out which projects you personally have your sights on you think are important that other people also hear about.Examples:- the Blender project: a lifeline to rescue creative professionals from the c

Would a points-based system improve content quality, or just kill engagement?Hey everyone, I’m building a business community platform for SME owners & entrepreneurs We’re exploring a points-based system to improve content/discussion quality and really like to get some feedback since this is a forum and I believe it is an issue you may have faced either here or elsewhere. So hope you can give me some feedback.The goal is to encourage high-value contributions.Here’s the idea:1) Everyone starts with 50-100 points. Users earn points when their posts/comments get likes. 2) Posting articles, commenting in “serious discussions” or posting anonymously costs points (e.g., 10 points per comment). 3) Users can still post normally, but "serious discussions" would require either points or LinkedIn Profile displayed (SSO sign in) to encourage more genuine conversations - striking a balance while still allowing for anonymity to a certain extent until they earn more points via quality conversations.Essentially, we are trying to see how best to achieve the best of both worlds -

Designing a simpler and transparent tax systemIf you had to design a brand new tax system for a new country, would you use a developed country tax system as scaffolding?I think a simpler and fully transparent system can be achieved by removing all taxation from every business and putting a single tax on final products and services consumed by end users. That way, we will all know exactly how much tax the government takes.- income tax - payroll tax (employer contributions) - property tax - capital gains (buy a house, sell 20 years later, pay taxes) - corporate tax - council tax - state level tax - inflation - VATWhen you look at how much is taken at each step, the final amount from your work taken in taxes is in the 70% to 85% range. This could be greatly simplified by translating all those taxes into a final tax on products and services consumed.1L of milk: 20% price 80% taxa car: 15% price 85% taxNo taxes on your income, no taxes on companies, no taxes on anything other than the final products and services consumed.

Show HN: Mcp-Agent – Build effective agents with Model Context ProtocolHey HN, I spent my xmas break building an agent framework called mcp-agent [1](https://github.com/lastmile-ai/mcp-agent) for Model Context Protocol [2]. It makes it easy to build AI apps with MCP servers, and implements every pattern from the popular Building Effective Agents blog [3] as well as OpenAI’s Swarm [4]. I’m sharing it early to get community feedback on where to take it from here, and to ask for contributions.For those who aren’t familiar with MCP, I think of it as a standardized interface to let AI communicate with software via tool calls, resources and prompts.mcp-agent provides a higher level interface to build apps with MCP. It handles the connection management of MCP servers so you don’t have to. It also implements the Building Effective Agents patterns: - Augmented LLM (an LLM with access to one or more MCP servers) - Router, Orchestrator-Worker, Evaluator-Optimizer, and more - SwarmThe key design principles are composability and reusability – every pattern is an Augme
