Do You Think OpenAI Is Apple Circa the 1980s?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49178393OpenAI is a deeply mismanaged company. Most recently, a blog post that feels like it has got to have dozens of PR violations, responding to the Apple lawsuit.More broadly, OpenAI’s main problem is that it does not have a real competitive advantage. No real models do; the real differentiation is price; they will become commodities. The need to move upwards in the market in enterprise software is difficult since the current stack should remain the same, since sticking with Salesforce plus its new AI features is much simpler than the cost of switching to an AI-first startup version, which won’t be around 3 to 5 years from now. So consumer hardware and trying to become the next Apple could work, except you would likely have to focus on people not in the Apple ecosystem because of the double-sided lock-in Apple has.The opposite dynamic works in consumer and mobile, really. Apple with AI is a much worse experience than something AI-first built from the ground up. Especially considering the c

Show HN: Guide AI coding agents on how to use libraries securelyhttps://github.com/Reware-Labs/securitycardsHi HN,TL;DR: AI Code Security Cards give coding agents library- and version-specific guidance to generate safer code.AI coding agents can generate working code, but they often lack library- and version-specific security knowledge. We've developed AI Code Security Cards, an open-source security knowledge layer, to provide that missing context.The project is related to my PhD, in which I focused on the security of LLM-generated code. During my research, I studied how code generation models behave, how they introduce security issues, and how we can guide them toward generating safer code.My research [1] and several other studies [2–4] show that at least 40% of code generated by state-of-the-art models contains one or more security issues. Similar problems also affect AI coding agents.One reason is that these models often lack sufficient library-specific security knowledge in their context. They may not know which configurations are unsafe, which validation steps are required, or what secu

Show HN: Project ESPAÑOL: Find level-appropriate Spanish-language poemshttps://dmerullo.github.io/project-espanol/I made this application while taking Spanish lessons to find texts that used verb forms I was learning (present, past, future, subjunctive, etc.). First, I scraped ~10,000 Spanish-language poems from the web that are in the public domain. Then, I built a conjugation dictionary for the 550+ most common verbs, using rules to generate regular verbs, and scraping irregular verbs from the web. From this alone, you can identify which poems contain the most type of verbs you're trying to target. To take it further, I used a k-means clustering algorithm in Python to classify the poems into four difficulty levels based on verb form frequencies (poems with lots of verbs in subjunctive future perfect are more difficult than only present tense, for example).I first completed the project in December 2024, almost entirely by hand, using LLMs primarily to make an interactive Plotly Dash application. (I have a lot of experience with data visualization, especially ggplot2; that was my first time using

Show HN: A mod for Grand Prix Circuit (DSI/Accolade, 1988)https://marnetto.net/projects/grand-prix-circuitHello HN,I have built a mod for Grand Prix Circuit, an old 2.5D racing game: the latest episode of a long series of community efforts to reverse-engineer and improve the games made by Distinctive Software (today's EA Vancouver) in the DOS era.I've been dabbling in hacking old DOS games for almost two years, but this time I think my project is big enough to be worthy of a “Show HN“.From the gaming point of view, the mod offers a variety of new cars and tracks, from Spa to the Space, and more sophisticated EGA backgrounds than the original game.From the technical point of view, it was an interesting effort combining reverse engineering, development, design and pixel art, all of which both in classic and LLM-assisted variants.From the literary point of view, I have documented the making of the game in a series of (fully human-written) posts [1]. There is something for everyone: war stories, hacking techniques, the word “boustrophedonic” and, as bonus, an outdoor game to keep your kids awa

Show HN: Vein, a minimalist open-source resource management gamehttps://d2ykijtrvb890q.cloudfront.net/Recently I've been working on Vein, a small open-source resource management game built with Godot.I've always loved resource management board games, and I wanted to see how minimal I could make one. The core idea is simple: keep the heart beating by supplying it with the resources it demands. I tried to strip the mechanics down as much as possible while still leaving room for interesting decisions, and I added a short tutorial to help players get started.The problem is that I still don't feel like I've found the right gameplay loop. It works, but it isn't yet the game I imagined. I'd really appreciate any feedback—whether it's about the mechanics, pacing, tutorial, UI, or anything else that stands out. I'm especially interested in ideas for making the core loop deeper without making the game more complicated.Most of the development was done with Claude Sonnet as a coding partner, while I focused on the design, gameplay, and iteration. The game engine is Godot.You can play it here: http

Show HN: Open OneNote Viewer in Rusthttps://github.com/emsi/OneNoteViewerFor more than 15 years, I accumulated hundreds upon hundreds of notes in OneNote. I loved the application and still consider it one of the best and most distinctive note-taking tools available. Its free-form canvas supports a way of organizing information that Markdown-based tools simply cannot reproduce.The problem was that using OneNote became increasingly inconvenient for me. Microsoft never released a native Linux client, so I kept a Windows VM and later even a separate Windows small PC largely for OneNote. The OneNote Web Clipper for Firefox eventually stopped being supported, removing one of the ways I regularly captured information.The web version did not solve the problem. In particular, it could not search across all my notebooks at once. To find a note, I first had to remember which notebook contained it, which rather defeated the purpose of having a searchable archive. I also found the web application slow and substantially more limited than the desktop client.I looked at al

Show HN: What should the GUI for AI agents look like?https://marbleos.com/demoHi HN! We’re Akilan and Miguel, the creators of MarbleOS.The inspiration for Marble comes from the GUI work at Xerox PARC, the 1984 Macintosh, and later NeXTSTEP, which became the foundation for Mac OS X. Before GUIs, interacting with a computer was limited to strange terminal commands:C:\> DIRC:\> COPY FILE.TXT A:You had to remember the command, syntax, paths, and parameters.The GUI made those capabilities visible. Instead of remembering commands, you could point at files, drag them, click buttons, and select actions from menus. It didn't necessarily make entirely new things possible; it just made existing capabilities much easier to understand and use. We feel like AI is still somewhere around this command-line stage.Even though the strict syntax has been replaced with natural language, the interaction can still be quite stiff and depend on heavily recall. Tools like Claude Cowork still look surprisingly terminal-like: /skill-name [param1] [param2]. The parameters are written in natu

Show HN: I made a game where you build a CPU from logic gateshttps://select.supply/game/chipbuilderI built ChipBuilder to make computer architecture more approachable through interactive puzzles.You start with basic logic gates like AND, OR, and NOT, then gradually combine them into adders, multiplexers, memory, an ALU, and eventually a complete CPU. Once you've built the hardware, you can write assembly programs that run on the processor you created.The game is inspired by courses like Nand2Tetris, but everything runs directly in the browser with a visual circuit editor, simulations, and progressively harder challenges.
