Ask HN: What surprised you about Estonia e-Residency and running an Estonian OÜ?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48673801From the official information online, joining the e-Residency program and setting up an Estonian company seems relatively straightforward.I'm considering using an Estonian OÜ for a SaaS business and would love to hear from people who have actually gone through the process.What surprised you after becoming an e-resident and establishing your company? Were there recurring costs, compliance requirements, banking/payment issues, tax complications, or other operational challenges you didn't anticipate?How easy has it been to run the company remotely? Have you ever needed to travel to Estonia to resolve an issue?Looking back, would you do it again? What do you wish you had known before getting started?I'd appreciate any lessons learned, gotchas, or advice from current or former e-residents.Jun 25, 2026 2:17 PM

Show HN: Appstr for Indies managing lots of appshttps://www.appstr.ai/I have 11 apps in the Apple App store and 3 in Google Play store. Every time I submit a new app, I have to provide a privacy policy, a support URL, and some sort of product description page. Even more challenging, I had to keep track or customer reviews and submitted feedback because in the very early days of app launches, those first few reviews are the most critical and carry the most weight.So I built Appstr just as mini platform to quickly auto-generate multiple privacy policies (based on the app-specific data collection), host feedback forms to capture user suggestions and support issues, and a monitor to keep tabs on the reviews as they come in. It also sends me daily and weekly summary updates across all of my apps and also automatically groups the feedback and complaints so that I can prioritize the fixes and new features.I have made Appstr available to everyone because this seems like a pretty common problem that many app developers should be facing. While this could be done bJun 23, 2026 6:33 PM

Show HN: perl-lsp – annotation free static analysis for Perlhttps://github.com/tree-sitter-perl/perl-lspBuilt in Rust on top of ts-parser-perl and tower-lsp. Witness bags with graph traversal (value edges, call flow edges).How it works: - builds witnesses and scopes by walking the parse tree. Fully known values get concrete types, otherwise they get an edge pointing to the last witness we have for this symbol - a worklist runs to a fixed point: reducers fold each symbol's witnesses and chase edges. At this point, the witness bag is complete and ready to use - all downstream features are queries into the bag, following along the graph edges that are relevantExtensible - you can bring your own Rhai plugin to shortcut common patterns (exporters and OOP frameworks), or even add new types of definitions (worker tasks and web routes).The build/query timing distinction with edges lets you late bind types, which is duly similar to how Perl itself works: `Foo->new` isn't known if it's the constructor for Foo or calling a method on the sub name `Foo`; late binding lets you make that call after theJun 23, 2026 1:17 PM

Show HN: Wirewright, an experimental symbolic physics environmenthttps://github.com/wirewright/wirewrightThe idea with Wirewright is to treat programs and algorithms as physical mechanisms, as machines or societies of machines inhabiting an immutable symbolic world, and time-step the latter to see what happens. This last part in particular reminds me of cellular automata.Said differently, in Wirewright, programs are modeled as "nouns" or "societies" of interacting "nouns" (think data structures). The world is then subjected to laws of physics -- symbolic physics; which is the only "verb" here (think function). Therefore, in Wirewright, we say that, in a sense, algorithm equals structure and the evolution of structure equals computation. I tend to shorten this to "structure is computation", but this may be incorrect if viewed in isolation.Now, I guess you're wondering what Wirewright actually is. In fact, I see the rules here state that I must tell you what Wirewright is, plainly and clearly. I will try, but beware that at the end of the day, I know as little as you do :^) My hands write, Jun 22, 2026 12:15 AM

Galileo signal updated for internet-of-things usehttps://www.esa.int/Applications/Satellite_navigation/Galileo/Galileo_signal_updated_for_internet-of-things_useIn April, Galileo marked a step forward with the deployment of a new signal component, known as E5a Quasi Pilot, on 12 satellites of Europe’s satellite navigation constellation. This upgrade makes Galileo signals easier to access, particularly on emerging mass-market, low-power devices used for Internet of Things and smart city applications.Jun 19, 2026 1:55 PM

Show HN: Pacwich – lightweight new monorepo tooling on top of Bun, NPM, or pnpmhttps://pacwich.dev/I developed a package simply called bun-workspaces that worked on top of Bun workspaces directly with zero required config, using plain package.json scripts for orchestration.I have re-developed this package into pacwich, which supports Bun, npm, or pnpm. I decided it would be a better direction for it to be decoupled from a particular package manager, so it needed a new name (but I wanted to keep my logo).I write about the development strategy and my engineering philosophy (including disclosing the manner in which AI assists and my approach to not vibing this) in the Security page and the launch blog post about the pivot, which I linked on the home page in the note about the bun-workspaces migration.More is to come, including a way to compose scripts into more complex workflows rather than running one named script in parallel/series.Jun 16, 2026 8:38 PM

Why are there an increasing number of outright unhinged high karma users on HN?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48485429I’ve been noticing this disturbing trend for quite a while. By high karma I mean well over 1000 karma.And some of these leave comments so bizarre, that I can’t find any charitable explanation.Other than perhaps they may be skipping reading every other word or something… and then respond to an imaginary version of the parent.Uncharitably, they could be semi-random keyboard bashing, deranged bashing, emotional tantrums, and so on. Or LLM written… except the style doesnt match.Of course this has always been somewhat prevalent for low karma users, but it’s now creeping up higher and higher.For example, I had a recent bizarre encounter.I had double checked the first 10 pages of google results, in regards to a claim that I implied prior in the comment chain, mentioning that it seemed supportive of the claim.Maybe the novelty of someone doing that, and not just randomly opining, triggered something.Realistically, it didn’t take more than 5 minutes of effort, but still… it would have been 1 toJun 11, 2026 2:07 AM

Show HN: Papermill Press – An AI-friendly markup language for PDF generationhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48477708If you’ve generated PDFs from HTML, you’ll know the pain: headless Chrome in Docker, CSS hacks, content that flows over pages or table boundaries and other quality issues.The fundamental problem is that HTML was designed for screens, not print.We built Press, a markup-based document language where pages, content flows, and assets are first-class concepts. Content can flow across frames, columns, and pages without manual pagination. Pages are created dynamically based on the available content.Press templates separate layout from content. You can send markdown, Press markup, or a mixture of both to the API. Data can be sent in JSON, CSV, XML.Because Press is XML-based it can easily be generated by agents - some of our users are generating complete documents in a single shot, although the language is designed for repeatable automation.You can also use our MCP server, which enables models to design templates.A simple API call sends a markdown payload, which is injected into a … element in Jun 10, 2026 3:21 PM
