Antwerp's 'human zoo': Belgium confronts shame of colonial pasthttps://www.france24.com/en/video/20260822-antwerp-s-human-zoo-belgium-confronts-shame-of-colonial-past-1In 1894, when the Belgian city of Antwerp was hosting a World's Fair, more than a hundred Congolese people were forcibly brought to the city to be exhibited in the Congo Pavilion. In this "human zoo", seven Congolese men ultimately died of disease. Today, this shocking episode still haunts Belgium as one of its colonial history's darkest chapters. This year, a monument to the victims was unveiled. Report by Alix le Bourbon and Dave Keating.Aug 22, 2026 11:05 AM

Show HN: Anjadhe – privacy first AI assistant, no account, no server DBhttps://www.anjadhe.com/demoHi HN, I am Ram. For the last few months I have been building Anjadhe. It is a personal AI assistant for macOS. The main idea is simple: A macOS app where AI does the job of a personal assistant for the user. Not a chat only app where user needs to dig through chats to understand today’s schedule or a project they planned with the ai last week, but a canvas where the user and AI work together around basic tools.I started building this as DYI tool for myself, but at this point I see that its truly useful for me, so sharing with others to see if it can be useful to others too.Here is a quick Demo - https://www.anjadhe.com/demoWhat it can do today:- It reads your incoming email and files the important things: bills with due dates, renewals, receipts, deliveries. A bill becomes a task with a date, by itself. Two booking emails become one trip. - You set goals by talking to it, not by filling forms. It asks you questions, makes a plan with dated tasks. Later you can say "work got crazy, pusAug 22, 2026 2:12 AM

Ask HN: What types of alternative communities have you seen work or not and why?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49395758I’ve always been interested in alternatives to the discrete, isolated mode of living that most Westerners are familiar with. Think an individual, couple, or nuclear family living on their own property without sharing resources with neighbours or extended family.There are a wide range of alternatives out there, from multigenerational households to ‘intentional’ communities of over 1000 people. Some of the larger examples include urban communities like Christiania in Amsterdam or Hunziker Areal in Zurich and of course the more traditional rural communes - often founded during the counter-culture revolution of the late 60s and 70s. Most examples that I’m aware of have some kind of ‘intention’ other than simply existing. Things like low energy use (e.g. so called 2000 watt societies like Hunziker Areal), shared religious or spiritual beliefs, or some other foundational principals like concern for the environment. Another thing that a lot of these communities often share is some kind of entAug 22, 2026 1:39 AM

Windmill.dev is not "fully open-sourced (AGPLv3)"https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49392365I think Windmill.dev (https://github.com/windmill-labs/windmill) is really cool, and fully support their desire to be paid for their work.However, their README says:> “Windmill is fully open-sourced (AGPLv3)…”But their LICENSE says:> ... The files under backend/ are AGPLv3 Licensed, except any snippets of code under the compile flag ‘enterprise’. Those snippets and files are under a proprietary and commercial license. Private and public forks MUST not include the proprietary/commercial code mentioned above.I dove deeper into the code, there are around 300 files in the codebase that contain references to enterprise or private features, so it's not a clearly separated directory that can just be removed.They have 1.1k forks of their repository that I can see on Github, and I doubt all of them took the time to strip the proprietary code to comply with the license.So at this point, it feels like a licensing trap for anyone that clicks the fork button on Github or is attracted by the AGPL liAug 21, 2026 6:50 PM

Show HN: Lore – build and monetize personal contexthttps://github.com/dipakkrishnan/lore-mcpPersonal context will have its own market. Large-scale market research and simulation (and more) require context that isn't available on the Internet. Lore allows you to take what your agent knows about you, augment it with your files / dictations and sell it at a price you set. You control what memories stay private and what becomes available to buyers. This is the first step towards a personal context market, focused on the seller experience today, and powered by personal agent human interactions!Would love feedback on the core premise / shape!Aug 21, 2026 6:25 PM

Ask HN: Should we stop "correcting" AI writing so it improves English for us?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49391188For example, AI writing often puts an "or" at the list of items because that is more logical in some contexts.Changing it to "and" would make it sound more natural, but it would be less logical.Keeping it as "or" may make it standard usage over time, even when people are not using AI to write.What do you think? Should people stop "correcting" AI writing when it is actually more logical?Aug 21, 2026 5:20 PM
