Ask HN: Thoughts on Friend Making Apps?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49383929I've been seeing an influx of friend making apps like 222, Timeleft, Real Roots, BE.IRL, and so many more. I do think that with the increasing use of social media, endless doomscrolling, and AI, human connection has been impacted adversely in the last decade.Has anyone used these apps? What're your thoughts on them? Do you think the "loneliness epidemic" is really solvable by these types of apps or is there something larger at scale that needs to be done?

Show HN: Fsel –. a Rust TUI launcher, fuzzy picker and clipboard browserhttps://github.com/Mjoyufull/fselfsel is a terminal app launcher for Linux/*BSD. It also has a dmenu-style mode for piping arbitrary input through it, and a clipboard-history mode with text and image previews, I started it because I started using otterlauncher and needed a tui app laucnher bc otterlauncher was tui, i looked around and nothing was up to par, then i found Gyr, it was the closest thing but it needed sum work so i add the things I needed, and it eventually grew into fsel.its evolved to be more than an app launcher, i use the normal launcher mode for desktop apps, but I also use --dmenu for shell scripts, and it has --cclip for clipboard picker. It can also output selections or app data to stdout/JSON, preserve original indices for scripts, preview clipboard images in supported terminals, and the UI/keybinds/layout are configurable. A lot of the work lately has been making those modes behave consistently across weird Linux/Wayland setups and cleaning up ux.

Show HN: Chat Threadshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49382293The reason I wrote Chat Threads was because I started cursing at the AI in the middle of a long conversation. Then I continued with the conversation.Later, I wanted to pull that part out. I didn't want to start a new branch somewhere before it happened. I just wanted to take that part out of the middle and keep everything before and after it.That was the original idea behind Chat Threads.Chat Threads lets you work with a copy of a ChatGPT or Claude conversation. You can remove turns from the middle of a conversation without changing the original, and then continue with everything before and after them intact.It also lets you split a long conversation into separate topics. You can do that manually or optionally have an AI propose the topics and assignments for you to review.The project is open source:https://github.com/onyourmark/chat-threads

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/Large

Show HN: Hackerznews – Yet Another HN Clienthttps://hackerznews.vercel.appAround a little more than a year ago, thanks to the advancements in agentic coding, I created my personal ideal HN reading app. There are oh so many of those, but this one is mine. I couldn’t write syntax in any programming language if my life depended on it, so I was glad to have different models help me in that regard. I’m transparent about it, because a lot of HN users might view this negatively and I don’t want to mislead anyone.The updated feature set includes:* Updated UI for everything, including the story view with a favicon and simplified actions. * Dark mode switching based on device settings as a default, but optional setting * Responsive design for hopefully easier reading on mobile * On Desktop split view: the comment section opening up with the story list as a sidebar for easier story switching. * Updated thread design * Added Save functionalityAs I’m only an avid reader, not really contributor, I don’t really care about any account management or reply features.

Show HN: Youtilitics, energy usage analytics from utility data, no hardwarehttps://youtilitics.com/I posted an early version of this 2 years ago. Rebuilt most of it since then, so posting again with what's actually different.Youtilitics still pulls interval data your utility already collects (Green Button/ESPI — 15-60 min whole-house kWh) and turns it into usage analytics. The analytics stack is different: baseline anomaly detection (median/MAD by time-of-day bucket, not a flat threshold), overnight step-change alerts, usage heatmaps, cycle-over-cycle comparisons, etc. It is still based on a model trained on human-labelled data: used to differentiate baseline (eg vampire load) vs EV vs HVAC vs the rest. Inference runs with a python script when new data is received from the utility.I also changed the mobile app. It is still mainly used to store the user credentials without us having them (they never leave the device), for security/privacy reasons. This is used to scrape usage data from the utility dashboard, when they don't support Green Button. However now it also runs an embedded P

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

Show HN: We Added Notion Calendar to *Superhuman for iMessagehttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49378903Another update on Attention: after launching here last week, over 100 people used Attention!We followed up on feedback and we added a Notion Calendar-style calendar!---We realized pretty quickly when working in Attention (Superhuman for iMessage) that a lot of our conversations were about scheduling things.When we talk to Righthand users, iMessage is a lot of "can we find time to debug the issue live" or "I'll get back to you by this evening with the answer". 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 agen

Show HN: Huzzah – a novel approach to coding with AIhttps://www.danielvaughn.dev/posts/huzzah/Hello everyone. I've been working on this experimental editor called Huzzah.I've been working almost exclusively with coding agents since January of this year, and over the past few months I began to feel utterly exhausted by them. They're great, but I'm finding it more and more tedious to write full sentences for every change I want. Not only that, but it seems there's a complexity limit for codebases - beyond a certain point the agent begins confusing itself.I'd like to go back to writing code, but I don't want to go all the way back to fully manual coding. So I've come up with this interaction paradigm where you: 1. write pseudocode in whatever way makes the most sense to you 2. on save, the editor synchronizes your work to real source code 3. the pseudocode is persisted alongside the generated code, making your prompt effectively a stored record of intent. It may not work for every use case, but in my initial playthroughs I've found it very enjoyable.Right now it's just a proof of

Ask HN: How do you review and validate LLM generated code?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49378314It's become very fast to generate code nowadays, but how do you review and test all of it?Every time you ask a model to review some piece of code, it comes back with different "findings". So, you still have to filter through the noise of their findings to get to actual defects.And if you try to do the full review manually, then it might take more time to just understand the code than writing it yourself from the beginning.As for testing, you can ask the LLM to write the tests, but you can't be sure if the tests actually assert the expected product flow or just write pass/fail tests for a piece of logic.I would like to know if you have any workflows, strategies, or tricks.

Kandelo also looks promising as a sandbox for running agents in the the browser and on the command line. On the side, we've been playing with porting games and desktop environments and even compiling runnable programs within Kandelo.Yet it feels like there are many possibilities we haven't considered.How would you like to use something like this?Demos:Some notes: The demos have been tested in desktop browsers.

Show HN: Language Audio Trainer – Learn languages without looking at the screenhttps://playling.netlify.app/I recently built a language learning app with a slightly different approach. I deliberately didn't want it to be another Duolingo-like app.I think users should be able to choose what they want to learn and when.The main idea behind Language Audio Trainer is that you can simply press Play and listen to useful phrases in the background with the screen off — while walking, driving, cooking, etc. You can skip or repeat phrases, change the speech speed and number of repetitions, and choose the translation direction.There is also a flashcard mode for when you want to study more actively.I'd be interested to hear what you think about this approach to language learning.iOS: https://apps.apple.com/app/playling-language-trainer/id67619...

Are you good at AI, or just using it?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49378057We’re working on a ladder for individual AI proficiency and would love feedback on both the levels and the definitions.L0 New: brand new to AI, or has not yet used it.L1 Chat: simple prompt-and-response use. Work is serial: ask, wait for an answer, then ask again.L2 Contextual Work: gives AI relevant documents, data, or workspace context so it can work within the actual artifact and produce a more useful result.L3 Orchestrate: coordinates multiple agents or AI roles across independent workstreams, with work that may review, challenge, compare, or build on other work. This is not just for engineering.L4 Automate: creates workflows that are triggered by business events and run without someone sitting at a laptop directing each step.L5 Loop: feeds the output of those workflows back into shared knowledge or a company brain, so future workflows improve over time.A few things I’d love your perspective on:Are these the right levels?

Show HN: WaveHouse – Supabase for ClickHousehttps://wavehouse.devWhile building an IoT telemetry solution, we ran into hurdles with Clickhouse. For one, you can't insert quickly AND durably into Clickhouse without setting up something like Kafka, which gets complicated for quick projects wanting to make use of Clickhouse's powerful features. Then, trying to actually query Clickhouse and show data in a UI required a whole backend API to handle auth and permissions.We figured that all these parts together – fast, durable ingest, row-level and column-level security and roles, and realtime streaming – were a lot of scaffolding to have to rebuild for every project we wanted to use Clickhouse in. So, we built them all into a single Go binary to be deployed alongside Clickhouse, to help lower Clickhouse's barrier to entry. We call it WaveHouse.Would love any feedback as we work on improving and adding more features to this OSS project!

Show HN: Skilldocs – Figma for Markdownhttps://skilldocs.dev/tourI got fed up with Notion, so I built my dream document editor. It's all markdowned so it's easy to view skills or other agent-related documents. It's got the collaboration features I love from Figma (shared cursory and the ability to follow) and Google Docs (comments, realtime editing). Then you can export the diff and comments to an agent. I've been really liking it for talking over skill documents live on a call. I'm curious if this resonates with other people. More generally, I feel like notion is less and less relevant in an age where documents have a very different purpose and Markdown is king. Curious what people think!
