Show HN: I made a tactical map-based WWII submarine simulator (public beta)I've seen quite a few simming discussions on HN, so thought some of you might like this - I've created a map-centered, tactical submarine simulator and it's been a blast to make.I grew up playing Silent Service II on Atari ST with my dad, then got into Silent Hunter IV in the 2000s, and most recently have been loving the more recent UBoat. In each case, the part I always enjoy the most is the plotting and charting aspect - essentially beating uncertain estimates with geometry.So I decided to see how far I could get making my own sim that focused nearly entirely on that aspect. You listen on the hydrophone, estimate course and speed, identify ships through the periscope to get the mast height, use a working stadimeter for range estimates, and then try to build a good enough firing solution before getting discovered and hunted by any escorts.Things I'm particularly proud of are the working stadimeter, the dynamic music (Holst Mars stings when your torpedo is nearing a ship), and pretty i

Ask HN: Why aren't more people worried about AI impersonation in code reviews?This is something that has bothered me for quite a while, and I don't see a lot of people talk about it: Agents, in most cases, impersonate the human operator, by design, with no way to enforce, disclose, or control it. I believe this is causing an illusion of human in the loop, and is not intentional, and should be discussed.For example:All commits, pushes, PRs, and PR comments are all going to appear as the developer whether they wrote them or not. (You may have Co-authored-by, but not everyone has it set up).The good: you are accountable for what your AI wrote.The bad: while everyone should assume you used AI these days, there is still an expectation of some human-in-the-loop.When your agent uses the GitHub MCP or CLI, it's most likely using an OAuth authorization (even if it's a GitHub app, you also give consent for it to act on your behalf)This allows the agent to open PRs as you (which is intentional to force a 2nd reviewer. While you should review "your" own code, especially if

Arena AI Model ELO HistoryHi HN,I built a live tracker to visualize the lifecycle and performance changes of flagship AI models.We've all experienced the phenomenon where a flagship model feels amazing at launch, but weeks later, it suddenly feels a bit off. I wanted to see if this was just a feeling or a measurable reality, so I built a dashboard to track historical ELO ratings from Arena AI.Instead of a massive spaghetti chart of every single model variant, the logic plots exactly ONE continuous curve per major AI lab. It dynamically tracks their highest-rated flagship model over time, which makes both the sudden generational jumps and the slow performance decays much easier to see. It took quite a lot of iterations to get the chart to look nice on mobile as well. Optional dark mode included.However, I have a specific data blindspot that I'm hoping this community might have insights on.Arena AI largely relies on testing API endpoints. But as we know, consumer chat UIs often layer on heavy system prompts, safe

Thoughts on Claude Code 2.1.139 Agent View and Background SessionsSpent half a day trying Claude Code 2.1.139’s new Agent View and background sessions — useful, but still has quite a few rough edges.The first item in the 2.1.139 changelog released on 2026-05-11 was Added agent view (Research Preview). Interestingly, they even included a dedicated doc link in the changelog this time: https://code.claude.com/docs/en/agent-viewNot sure how many people here have tried it yet. I spent a few hours with it today and found both some really nice ideas and some frustrating issues. Curious to hear other people’s experiences too.1. What is Agent View?Agent View can launch parallel Claude sessions directly, and each session automatically uses a separate git worktree for isolation, so multiple sessions can run in parallel without conflicts.The background sessions are managed by an independent supervisor process. They continue running even if the terminal or Agent View itself is closed. Closing the terminal does NOT stop the background sessions.Checking processes w

Show HN: I made a screen recording app to make demos like an Apple commercialHey HN!I made ShotGlass, a Mac app for screenshots, screen recordings, and cinematic demos.I was tired of jumping between four apps to make one product demo. Screenshots, recordings, annotations, and After Effects for anything cinematic.I also saw the MacBook Neo commercials (recording playing on a 3D MacBook in a scene) and wondered why no screen recorder just did that.So ShotGlass does all of it: multi-window capture, annotations, zooms, transitions, and dropping a recording onto a 3D MacBook with a simulated lens.It's free to try, a one time purchase and everything stays local.I tried to make it simple to use and, for fun, themed like a glass of whisky. I'm updating it quite a lot, so I'd love your feedback.

Show HN: GIF Pile. a site to make piles of GIFsI'm quite fond of obnoxious looking gifs in a post-ironic way as a manner of shitposting and or injecting humor into a chat. The issue with this however is that, for no real good reason at all, the simple usecase of "Have image/gif background, bombard with garbage" had no real good tooling.There's gif editors out there, EZgif my beloved is probably my most used non-search-indexing-slash-social-media-site, but they're kinda clunky for my specific usecase of making digital eye-sandpaper bombastic garbage. Other options are bleak and gave me the mark of the beast via shitty watermarks. I just wanted a pile of gifs on top of each other, and thus far the "easiest" way was to bust open a video editor, muck around with it, mess up exporting as a gif directly, get mad, export it as a 4 second mp4, and then use ffmpeg to get it working. is this probably moronic? yes. am I likely to have missed a decent tool? yes. Did I give up looking after sending 4 dollars to some Indian guy for "No watermark

Show HN: SLayer, a semantic layer maintained by your agentHello HN!If you want to connect your agent to a database (say, to build a data analyst chatbot or any kind of agentic app) today you have 2 options: an SQL MCP server or a semantic layer.SQL MCP is the easiest path to setup, especially if you also have a .md knowledge base which the agent can update. It gets quite messy quickly though, especially if there's many interactions or DB is large. Generated SQL is hard to review if you want to understand where the numbers came from, and related queries can be hard to align and compare.The natural alternative is a semantic layer, which is an inventory of what data is available/useful (data models) and an interface for querying it using a structured DSL — usually a list of measures, dimensions, filters, with joins etc. handled under the hood.When we needed a semantic layer at Motley for connecting to our customers' data, we first settled on Cube with custom wiring for multi-tenancy and updating the models on the fly. We quickly hit some limitat

Show HN: Dreamwork – a job search site I made after Indeed fired my pregnant wifHey, I’m Colin and I have a fun story for you.My 7 month pregnant wife was laid off from Indeed (she was a PM there) back in December. This pissed me off quite a bit, as she was supposed to get 6 months leave and instead got fired.So I spent the last five months working part time to build Dreamwork, a platform aiming to make the job search experience actually better with AI (not just mass application spam).I started with just a telegram bot doing scraping, then advanced to Google Embeddings 2.0 for vectorizing the jobs, built out a tight 6 axis scorecard for both the user and each job.Then I actually got to use my English degree (lol) to optimize the prompt for custom per-job resumes and cover letters to make them not sound like - again - shitty AI.Most AI cover letters have a kind of consistently dead quality. They use all the keywords and somehow communicate nothing. I absolutely hate that, so I’ve been fairly obsessive about making the output feel more like a decent human draft: spe

Do I just forget everything I've learned?Hello, I'm a college student pursing a bachelors in computer science.My degree program requires that I do a "science sequence"; essentially classes 1 and 2 of general chemistry, physics, or biology. I'll be finishing chemistry 2 this semester, which will be the last chemistry class I will ever take with my current degree plan.I feel quite conflicted about this though. On one hand, it's not a subject I particularly enjoyed, and I'm happy that I am now able to invest the time I once dedicated to chemistry into computer science. On the other hand, I am quite good at chemistry and don't want to just forget everything I learned (even if it's only limited to gen chem 1 and 2).I feel as if I don't have a reason to know chemistry other than for the sake of knowing it. It might be interesting to code up some projects related to what I've learned, but that's likely the most I will ever be able to engage with chemistry outside of a university. Perhaps getting a minor in chemistry would allow me t

Show HN: Valkyr LM Inference with Realtime GuaranteesValkyr is a fresh take on LM Inference runtimes.It's quite different from llama.cpp, vLLM, or ZINC for example.Written in Zig, and super clean, with no dependencies apart from Vulkan Compute itself of course.While it supports multiple model families and features like an OpenAI compatibility server, a big thing is you can run it with strict time budgets running inside an existing Vulkan host.. think video games, AR/VR apps, edge devices, or robots.In addition it supports a rich probe interface to research language model internals at close to real time.I'm not trying to take on existing runtimes, those exist already. What I am trying to do is help inference work cooperatively with time sensitive applications.Would love it if you checked it out.Please let me know if you have any questions or ideas. Thanks!

Ask HN: How do you feel about AI assisted blogging?How do you feel when you learn someone has been using AI heavily to help them write? Setting aside English as a second language.My knee-jerk is to find it disappointing. But maybe I’m missing some nuance. And I don’t have the same negative reaction to AI coding.But if you’re going to ask me to read a blog article, I don’t quite enjoy it when it’s not in your own words. I want to be in conversation with you, not you intermediated through an LLM.While I don’t particularly care about a bit of LLM spellchecking or copy editing. I’d rather have human language warts and all than perfect AI-speak.That’s the rant. But what am I missing?

Show HN: I built the missing layer between email and DocuSignHi HN, I'm Pratik Garg. My back story is I built OneRequest because I kept running into the same problem at work and more than often personal life as well. Whenever I needed something from someone professionally like a document, a signed form, proof of something it always turned into a thread of emails, missed attachments and manual chasing and similar thing happened when someone wanted information from me and over a period, things were lost, scattered and ultimately gone. I looked for a tool that handled this properly. Nothing quite fit. DocuSign is for signatures only and assumes both sides have accounts. Google Forms doesn't track who's responded or chase them. Email has no visibility at all and then came the Whatsapp scare(all sitting in a chat thread with no tracking, no audit trail, no way to find them 6 months later) So I built OneRequest. You create a request and add the fields you need, attach context for the recipient. You get one link. The recipient opens it, submits everyth

Show HN: Mvndvs TERRARUM – A Renaissance-style 3D world mapIn this fast-paced, AI-exploding era, I felt a strong desire for a slower, more deliberate pace.I built a 3D interactive world map: https://world.gjlmotea.com/Lately, time seems to be flying by. I've been building a lot of quirky, experimental projects, but honestly, my mood has been quite restless and low. There are just too many options and new technologies emerging every day—choice paralysis sets in before I can even figure out what I truly want to build.But this project is different. It’s more grounded, human, and carries a sense of warmth.

Show HN: Vaava – a baby routine tracker / logging appVaava - it is a baby tracker / logging app. It was originally built mainly for my own use, but it is now available in both app stores. It has the same basic features that you could imagine. You can save built-in events feeding, sleep, diapers. You can also create custom events for any events you like. It has reminders, a week view, trends visualization, a 'my day' builder to help you think about the baby routines.The market for baby logging apps is already quite niche, but there is some aspects that make Vaava focus on a niche inside that niche.Core differentiators from established offering in this area for unique user experience: - Uncompromising data privacy; the tech choices and architecture was done from the start to support this. There is 0 user generated data collected to centralised servers - 0 behavioural analytics, even the anonymous technical app crash analytics are completely optional - No user account needed, no giving your email, no subscriptions - AI applied in a smart/li

Show HN: How I built a cron job service to advance myself in Go and worker poolsHi, Guys, For a long time i've been thinking to advance myself in Go but there's been no proper idea to showcase that. I thought - maybe one could leverage from the fact that Go should be very performant in terms of API-based solutions and tools.And especially i wanted to make sure that Go's goroutines can do nicely some fan-out things, for example, getting request, logging, publishing event, without notable performance degradation.I had quite some experience in AWS, with serverless architecture in particular. And there are basically no other option for scheduling except for EventBridge, which has a handsome free tier though. But what if you are not within the AWS infra, because the infra itself could be costly, especially after they removed the "12-months trial" thingy.So, i thought something like cron-as-a-service could be good starting point.Decided to take a straightforward stack: Go API server, Postgres, Redis as both job queue and cache, all running on a single €5/month Hetzner V
