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

InstantDB Is Shutting Downhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49378706Nothing on their website - but I got an email.Hey there, you’re one of our active users and we wanted to let you know we’re sunsetting Instant.In more detail:New signups will be closed soon. We recommend migrating your apps off of Instant Cloud within the next 12 months. Any subscriptions that were started after July 31st, 2026 will be fully refunded. On August 31st, 2027, all cloud apps will shut down. Backups will stay available for 12 more months, until August 31st, 2028. We’ve written a guide to help you self-host Instant and migrate your apps too. All of Instant is open source, and we’ve worked to make the migration process as seamless as possible. The idea behind Instant started in 2021. We shared a blog post about a database in the browser. It was only an idea, but the more apps we built, the more we saw the need for it. We joined YC in 2022, built a prototype, and shared a version zero.Turning a prototype into something production-grade was a long journey. The work was hard, bu

Show HN: Kandelo – a POSIX-compatible multi-process WASM kernel for the browserhttps://kandelo.dev/20260819-demo/Kandelo is an open-source, Wasm-based multi-process kernel that runs POSIX programs in browsers and Node.js.Kandelo is still experimental, but it already runs a substantial range of existing software.Do you have use cases for this?We are trying Kandelo as a new foundation for WordPress Playground which runs server-side WordPress entirely in the browser. 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. Unfortunately, YMMV on mobile today. Some of the disk images are large (~50MB) and may take a while to boot initially.Main set, with Shell (bash, vim, nethack, and more), Nginx, PHP, WordPress, and Doom: https://kandelo.dev/202608

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? Are any of the names unclear or overlapping? What observable

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!

Show HN: Outbid.to, a pay-to-win leaderboard for websiteshttps://www.outbid.to/I built outbid.to as a simple experiment in transparent paid discovery.Submit a website, place a whole-dollar bid, and your bid determines your rank. The highest bidder takes #1. If someone outbids you, your listing moves down but stays live.There are no hidden ranking factors or editorial decisions. The minimum bid is $2, payments are handled through Stripe, and each listing shows the traffic it receives.I’m curious whether an openly pay-to-win leaderboard can be more useful and entertaining than traditional ads or sponsored directories.Would appreciate feedback on the ranking mechanics, pricing, and anything that feels unclear.

I built Table Canon to solve a problem my playgroup kept running into: 3-4 hour tabletop gaming sessions leave behind massive audio recordings, but standard meeting note-takers treat every session as an isolated island, butcher fantasy terms, and don't know who is speaking.I wanted an engine that tracks long-term state across months of games, so I built a pipeline to extract entity updates, open quest hooks, and character promises across sessions.The Tech Stack:* Transcription: whisper-large-v3-turbo * Diarization: pyannote for speaker embeddings & voice profile matching Extraction & Memory: OpenAI API with Structured Outputs (JSON Schema enforcement for state updates) * TTS & Audio Recaps: Kokoro / Chatterbox Turbo Music Generation: ACE-Step-v1.5-XL-Turbo for rendering session summaries into lyrics/balladsA Few Engineering Lessons & Challenges:* State Delta Extraction vs. Context Explosions: Feeding 20 prior session transcripts into context windows quickly becomes cost-prohibi

Show HN: The First 3D Map of North America's Underground Geologyhttps://drillerdb.com/undergroundOver the past year, we've been running OCR on over 13 million handwritten and typed well logs across North America. After that we standardized the unique terms used by drillers across America into one format, which we've based on the USGS's lithologic standards.Before this project, underground data was fragmented by state or county jurisdictions and had different standards for reporting and terminology. This is the first nationwide lithological grid ever made at this scale.Most regions have pretty good coverage. However, be aware some areas like the southeast of the US especially has some pretty significant gaps due to the reporting standards in those regions.We also have a research program! https://drillerdb.com/research

Show HN: Open-source Stripe Connect alternativehttps://zoneless.comHey, I'm Ben. I built Zoneless because I was paying so much to use Stripe Connect on my own marketplace. The fees were really, really bad, and it was also limiting in terms of the seller countries I could onboard. To give you an idea, I was paying around $9,000 per month in fees just to run payouts. Using Zoneless, that cost goes down to around $6.I've been using it personally for the past few months, and onboarded 5,000+ sellers and done 3,000+ payouts. 74% of new sellers on my marketplace choose Zoneless over Stripe, which is really interesting. I appreciate crypto and stablecoins are a bit of a touchy subject, but for this use case of sending global payouts cheaply, it's perfect.The project is open source with an Apache 2.0 licence, which means there's the benefit of no lock-in and no risk of your account getting flagged or shut down. It also has an almost identical API and dashboard to Stripe.Would love to hear any feedback you may have in the comments.
