Ask HN: If you dislike AI, why don't you prove it?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49401293I've seen so many people who absolutely hate AI, and want AI companies to fail, but then 2 seconds later, open up the coding tool made by frontier labs and willingly hand them money.Just recently convinced one of them to move away from the frontier lab lock-in to OpenCode and switch between models. Not saying they need to switch to non-frontier models immediately, but this approach lets them easily switch to open source when the time is right.Why don't more people do this? And shouldn't companies that use AI heavily also suggest this approach?To be clear, I like AI, and use it all the time, but I use it in a way that allows me to easily switch models and not get locked-in.

Show HN: Knowl – CLAUDE.md hit 1000 lines, so I built memory that prunes itselfhttps://github.com/dat999zx/knowlUsing AI agents is amazing, but in long-term, I started to have more and more problems about the context of them. They keep forgetting what we are working on, opening a new chat session clears all their context, my CLAUDE.md had like 1000 lines.So I thought to install those agent memory that are on the market. Started out great, but I noticed that those memory only append and does not fix what is stale. First day I told it to use Lemon Squeezy as our MoR but second day I tell it to change to Polar. But when I ask it again, they keeps returning both answers or cannot decide which we are using.That's why I created Knowl. Knowl solves the problem with freshness of the knowledge. It split the knowledge into small data bits called "atom". Atoms can be of the following types: fact, decision, goal, constraint, architecture, state, skill so we can retrive atoms in categories.When conflict happens at write-time (a new atom conflicts with an old one), Knowl retires the old one (flag it with supe

Show HN: 3D Engine for Rust Programshttps://github.com/David-OConnor/graphicsI mostly stabilized the API for this 2 years ago. Since then, I've made occasional performance improvements, and feature additions. It's built to support my structural biology programs, but can be used generally.I'm posting it here, as from what I understand, this is a surprisingly yet-to-be-developed space. This fits between lower-level tools (Which it relies upon) like WGPU or Vulkan bindings, and higher-level game engine and similar (e.g. Bevy).Use case: Create programs written in Rust that integrate a UI (EGUI) with 3D. Suited for scientific, or general visuals.

Show HN: Forst – migrate TypeScript back ends to Go incrementallyhttps://forst-lang.org/docsOver the past ~1.5 years I've been working on this programming language called Forst with the primary goal of replacing TypeScript on the backend.I'd seen many times that running JavaScript on the backend often leads to memory spikes, especially when handling larger data structures, and other inefficiencies due to over-usage of the heap and being restricted to one core by default. So I wanted more efficient native code to replace it but also figured that it's often simply too risky and time consuming to rewrite entire codebases in Go, Rust, or others.This idea led the design. By now, Forst is interoperable with Node, so you can call Forst code from Node via IPC or an HTTP sidecar, and even call existing TS code from Go if you're running a Node process as a child process of your Forst host process. These features enable an incremental migration of parts of your codebase rather than having to go all-in immediately.It started out as a transpiler that emits Go code with support for structu
