Show HN: Kitten PM – A product management SIM game inspired by Lemmingshttps://kittenpm.com/I made a silly product management sim inspired by Lemmings. Except the lemmings are kittens, and the kittens are your customers.The game is based around a 30-day subscription loop, and the core idea is to make the cause & effect of trade-offs in product management visible and playable.I’ve worked in product for many years, and wanted to see if there was an interactive way to share my experiences with people who have an interest in making product. Learning by doing, rather than reading a book. Hopefully it’s fun too.// Built with React, TypeScript & Phaser. The sim engine is pure TypeScript / maths, and the game draws from its state. I’m a PM, so used a standard-ish product workflow, & Claude as my engineering team.Right now it’s desktop only, as I want to validate the idea before spending even more time on this and adding even more complexity.So honest question (& brutal honesty welcome):Does the concept work? Is it educational / useful / fun? & yes I get it’s a bit bonkers, but is it Aug 21, 2026 10:37 AM

Cybercriminals perfect 'social engineering': 'Each hack feeds the chances of the next one succeedinghttps://www.france24.com/en/video/20260821-cybercriminals-perfect-social-engineering-each-hack-feeds-the-chances-of-the-next-one-succeedingPeter O'Brien is pleased to welcome Simon McGarr, Lawyer with McGarr Solicitors in Dublin, and Managing Director of Data Compliance Europe. Cybersecurity is no longer simply a question of whether governments possess adequate technical defences, explains McGarr. AI is altering those risks at extraordinary speed, placing capabilities once associated with states or sophisticated criminal organizations within reach of much smaller actors. If threats evolve month by month, governments must focus on prevention: identifying vulnerabilities, adapting defenses and developing long-term institutional capacity before emerging threats become crises.Aug 21, 2026 10:04 AM

Ask HN: Has Microsoft forgotten how to test software?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49383954This is a serious question.I've an older Mac with some critical apps that runs a slightly obsolete macOS. This OS version is no longer supported by Edge and Chrome 151+.This did not stop Edge from auto-updating to a known incompatible version and bricking itself.One minute I had the browser open; the next, the icon was overlayed with the Ghostbusters symbol and could do nothing but display a dialog explaining that my OS is unsupported.A fluke once perhaps, but this is the third time this has happened to me with various MS apps bricking themselves.I'm officially done with Microsoft products. This isn't some annoying bug; this is suddenly and abruptly locking me out of my own computer.Aug 21, 2026 4:55 AM

Show HN: Icebug-format: immutable, interoperable graph standardhttps://github.com/Ladybug-Memory/icebug-formatMost graph analytics packages have a mutable graph implementation that uses a heap allocated vector to store the graph. It works for toy graphs. But if you're loading a billion edge graph using G.add_edge() it's going to take a while.We don't need to invent new standards. Such interoperable, immutable memory standards already exist: Apache Arrow and Compressed Sparse Rows (CSR). CSR is widely used in scipy, cugraph and columnar graph databases among others. Both on CPUs and GPUs.icebug-format combines both into a on-disk standard based on Apache Parquet and an in-memory format based on Apache Arrow.Bindings available in many popular languages including python, typescript and rust.The package ships with convenience scripts to convert flat tables such as vertex.parquet and edges.parquet to this format in RAM/disk constrained environments.Sample graphs: https://huggingface.co/datasets/ladybugdb/ldbc-csr/tree/mainConverted from: https://ldbcouncil.org/benchmarks/graphalytics/datasets/LargeAug 20, 2026 11:57 PM

Show HN: Praxos – team messaging with built-in memoryhttps://www.praxos.ai/Hey HN! What does a regular workflow at a startup look like?Probably like this:> One founder talks to customers> Another founder builds> A customer asks for something. The first founder explains it to the second. The second founder explains it to Claude> Two weeks any one of the founders asks one of the following questions: \* Why are we building it this way? \* What happened here? \* What did we promise ACME we’d do? \* How far along are we on X? > Then you scream on the inside because you have to figure out what happened...Before agents, the person who did one part of the work usually held a mental map. They could share the context with other people. Increasingly, they can’t.Small teams can run far more work in parallel than ever before thanks to AI, but someone now has to connect all that context manually. The reasoning behind one product change might now be scattered across a customer call, two emails, a Slack thread, and four Claude conversations.Praxos is a team messaging app.It Aug 20, 2026 8:55 PM

Show HN: Astronomy Buddy–what's worth pointing a telescope at tonighthttps://astronomy-buddy.com/I wanted a simple dashboard for my TRMNL display in my entryway that told me whether it was worth taking my telescope out that night, which I ended up extending into a web + iOS app if anyone else finds it useful.All the apps talk to my own endpoint that consumes AstronomyAPI (current celestial body positions in our solar system), 7Timer! (cloud cover, seeing, transparency), and Open-Meteo (air quality), compares to your current location/elevation/equipment, and determines both a verdict on whether it's worth stargazing tonight and what to look at if you do go out. All the logic/strings to display are contained in my API so I can adjust if needed without re-deploying the separate front ends.Hope someone else finds it handy!Aug 20, 2026 7:37 PM

Personally it's a lot of booking travel and dinners.Since we've been spending so much time in Attention, we decided to add a calendar to fix the issue. It looks like Notion Calendar, but it also supports a few new features like "fuzzy events".The onboarding is more involved and so we'll do 1:1s for a bit (comment below if you want to be in the cohort), but we would love any and all feedback!As before:- Privacy / Security: Your data is yours, fully local in LanceDB + SQLite, never leaving your machine unless you turn on the AI agenAug 20, 2026 7:17 PM
