Ask HN: How would you market this service?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49316403Hi all,I have a genuine problem here, I have been working for myself on a licensing layer for my personal apps.A few fellow developers are using it after seeing how good it is, but I've had a very hard time getting new users into the platform.In average, a dozen of people are signing up a week and are going through the first steps, setup their dashboard and issue their first license. I made a CLI that automates all of that by safely.Then, blank.I feel like I didn't find the way to properly show off the service or I don't know. For me it totally make sense to use a licensing layer, it ensures your data stays in one spot, even if u use multiple payment providers or MoR.Although it seems hard for people to understand the value of it.I won't share the link, I'm not doing marketing here. The SaaS is really about, licensing your app, customer portal, payment provider agnostic, deep analytics, usage and cross-platform SDKs.Do any of you have any ideas?

Show HN: Premiss – Coding agents for building trading strategieshttps://www.premissai.comHey HN,First time posting a Show HN. I've been building Premiss, a platform for researching, building and testing trading strategies with coding agents.I started working on it because I felt that a lot of existing trading platforms still make you build strategies through predefined rules and visual editors. Those feel out of date and wrapping a model around an existing interface feels like limiting the model.Code doesn't really have that limitation, and with coding agents getting much better, I started wondering what a trading platform built around them from the beginning would look like.With Premiss, the agent has access to the research and backtesting environment and can research an idea, write the strategy in code, run it, inspect the results and iterate on it. The code is there for you to inspect as well rather than the strategy living inside a rule builder.It's still early and I'm figuring out what the right boundaries are between the agent and the deterministic parts of the syste

Boone spoke to Judge and said the slugger responded well to throwing for the first time in his rehab.

When housing is unaffordable, this artist’s device makes pedaling harderhttps://www.theverge.com/tech/980359/ground-truth-justin-blinder-housing-affordable-bike-pedalJustin Blinder had just been laid off when he first came up with the idea for Ground Truth. It was 2020, two weeks before covid lockdown went into effect, and the Brooklyn-based artist and technologist had no idea what the future would hold. He started working for the food delivery apps, and as he was riding his bike across the city, he began noticing the stark differences between neighborhoods. "...

Kakehashi Update: Running Apple Clang build and lowering overhead to 1.24xhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49299613Hello again HN!After 11 days, I'm back with an update about Kakehashi. I want to thank you for your support! Thank you for all your stars, comments. I didn't expect you to be so interested in the project.What's new:I managed to significantly accelerate the implementation process. Now, 7zip lags by just 1.24x compared to native Linux performance, and the Lua build differs literally by 1.5 to 2 seconds from a native launch. The Lua build fails to compile via kh run make due to Linux-specific flags, which mirrors its behavior on native macOS. However, if it is built using kh run gcc -- -Wall -O2 -DLUA_USE_MACOSX -std=c99 onelua.c -lreadline -o /tmp/lua-onelua, everything compiles, builds, and runs perfectly. Overall, I am currently actively working on the following binaries: git, clang, make, xcrun, otool, gcc, curl, 7zip, rm, ls, sh, csh, zsh, bash, and the Rust installation script. Please note that you currently need to manually port the /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, and /usr/lib/zsh folders f

Show HN: Lark, OSS realtime database, drop-in compatible with Firebase SDKshttps://github.com/lark-sh/larkHey everyone,In early 2026, I started working on Lark, with the goal of creating a realtime database with the same fundamental premise of Firebase RTDB: syncing a JSON tree with persistence to thousands of concurrent users. Today, Lark is releasing as open-source software under an AGPLv3 license.I've been building on Firebase RTDB since the earliest days, and I still think it's one of the most magical ways to build realtime apps for the web and mobile. However, I've always been bothered by the fact that it's building on top of a closed ecosystem. Lark brings the magic of Firebase RTDB to you with the freedom to run it on your own infrastructure.Lark is unique in that it is fully drop-in compatible with the existing Firebase client SDKs. That means you can change a few config vars in your project, move your data to Lark, and you're good to go. In addition, you can continue using other parts of Firebase, like Auth[1], Analytics, and Hosting. This makes it very easy to migrate an existing

Show HN: ProbeDeck an iOS app for ClickHouse incident triagehttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49286299As a backend developer dealing with heavy applications, I run a ClickHouse node with 3.42 TB compressed and 19.10 TB uncompressed amongst its active components. I built ProbeDeck to run some operations on a cluster, inspect a cluster, and read some system logs on my iPhone or iPad with no laptop.The application presents some system tables as screens for running a query, replica state, storage pressure, and mutations. It pulls some stats from the system.metric_log table and shows 0 when that table is not active. One can inspect the system and decide if they want to execute KILL QUERY or KILL MUTATION. Those screens have a confirmation screen. While working with destructive SQL in the editor, a confirmation is needed and is type-safe.The app sends ClickHouse requests via HTTP or HTTPS to the ClickHouse server, or via one SSH bastion if a single SSH hop is needed. ProbeDeck does not proxy requests for a database. It stores passwords, SSH private keys, TLS client certificates, and the secr

Show HN: Stackdome – An open source self-hostable Railway alternative on K8shttps://stackdome.comHello Hacker News, this is Ashish.We started building Stackdome in 2024 as a hobby project. The idea was to package the tooling in the CNCF/cloud-native ecosystem into an opinionated platform, so that developers can get a well engineered platform without learning Kubernetes YAMLology or a dozen other projects from the CNCF landscape.Railway and Render did this well for their hosted products. I wanted to bring that level of polish and DX to something you can self-host. Stackdome uses Kubernetes underneath, but it's completely transparent to users. (I have some ideas for an expert mode that exposes more of the bells and whistles.)My day job involves working with cloud native technologies, and it made me appreciate how much is already solved by Kubernetes and the tooling around it. If you are already running Kubernetes, Stackdome is something you can adopt incrementally. (I have some ideas around adopting already-running workloads.)Features:- First class support for multi-service applicat

Launch HN: Bullet (YC S26) – A Faster Coding Agenthttps://www.codewithbullet.comHi HN! We’re Adi and Alex, founders of Bullet, a faster coding agent.Bullet started in a senior year dorm. We were fresh out of working at AppLovin and Citadel, and naturally thought we were on a sure path to startup success. We were going to use our skills optimizing stock pricing calculation speeds and agent document context to take over the world. So, Bullet started as an AI hedge fund, a browser-use agent, synthetic financial data (oof), a mobile IDE, and a bunch of other things. We wanted to build something people wanted, but it seemed like everything we built was just terrible, useless, or both.So, we decided to do something completely different, something completely out of the blue, something that no one had ever done before. Solve a problem we actually had.Over the course of six pivots, we suffered. Throughout all of our adventures, one final boss kept getting in our way. Claude Code and his little brother Codex. We were spending hours waiting for coding agents like Claude Code

Show HN: I built a life planner that has only "one page"https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49282537I spent 5 years working a f*cking to-do app and being a loser. Here's what I learnt.Life planners don't work if they're too simple (e.g. Apple Notes for everything). They also don't work if they're too complicated (e.g. Notion templates).They must be adequate, such as having basic fucking hierarchy where you can have tasks and sub-tasks. They must also be centralized, because reminders don't fucking work if I can't see them because they're hidden in 5 different places.The resultant version is https://beta.actions.life. It's free forever for early beta users, and you can try it without going through some bullshit sign-up flow.I hope you can tell me what's good and what's shit about the app, so I can make it better for you. Thanks.

Show HN: Argmin, challenges for optimizing hard problemshttps://argmin.devI want to share a project I've been working on called argmin.dev. It's a platform for hard optimization problems where a solution can be checked deterministically.For a bit of background, I've always found these types of problems interesting. The really difficult optimization problems where techniques like gradient decent don't work, or where even finding a feasible solution is difficult (e.g. square packing). I've worked on these independently for fun and have created this project as a way to share the problems I find interesting with the community. I am curious to see how far others can push these.Each challenge is defined by its verifier, a program that will enforce the constraints, and evaluate the objective function. The verifiers are open-source per challenge, so users can check their solutions against it before submitting. The platform keeps a record of submissions and will update the leaderboard each time someone finds a new record. Because the verifier is the spec, any loophol

Show HN: Overlay – Design with your React components and CSS tokens in your IDEhttps://www.overlay.studio/Hey HN, I'm Francesco. I've spent the last year building Overlay, a UI editor that runs inside your IDE and renders your actual React components (not a redraw of them), using your real CSS tokens.I'm a design engineer and, especially with AI, I found myself spending more and more time in the codebase rather than in Figma. Trying out ideas in code with AI is a lot of fun, but there are specific moments where I need to sketch things out on a classical visual canvas. The problem is, when you work mostly with code and your codebase moves faster than your Figma library, stopping to import your latest components into Figma is an energy-killer.So I built Overlay to get quick access to my React components on a canvas. It's a VS Code extension, so opening the canvas takes seconds. Your components are already there, and you're designing with the real thing: the editor is a normal DOM document, not a WebGL canvas. From there, working with AI (via MCP) is also a breeze. The agent already has acces
