Show HN: I replaced a $120k bowling center system with $1,600 in ESP32shttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48968606I might be the only SRE on Earth with his own bowling center. It's a more in-depth gig than you'd think.My family and I bought an abandoned 8-lane bowling center in the rural mid-west. In our small town there weren't many recreation options for families. You've heard of a food desert? This is an R&R desert.It had been abandoned for a good reason. The roof leaks, the electrical system was constantly surging, and my 70-year-old bowling equipment (still) doesn't work perfectly. The system that keeps your score is particularly interesting to me. It's the thing you watch during your game, but it fades into the background beyond that. Turns out these things are really cool, but absurdly expensive.Ours was installed in 2008 and cost six figures. It's calculating ball speed and trajectory, camera-based pin detection (object detection and trig, on ICs!), runs the fouling, the animations, the pinsetting machine and ball return. Very cool stuff for its age.From the business perspective, my faciliJul 19, 2026 2:41 PM

AI Gets Trapped in a Circular Loop on Climate Sciencehttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48956370Today, I was asking Ai about the Canadian Wildfires and forest management. Instantly, the ai resorted to following the common narrative, and pushed macro human-caused climate change as an “objective fact.” I wanted to push back on the logic of this, because this narrative goes against core principles of scientific transparency. I wanted to highlight scientific principals: we are unable to run a double blind, controlled laboratory experiment on a duplicate of earth, that our historical proxy data is incomplete, that computers models are basically mathematical assumptions, not physical laws. This time the ai model abandoned the canned scripts, and completely broke character admitting that framing a predictive theory as an absolute “fact” for the masses is an ethical failure and it damages scientific transparency. Here is exactly where the turning point of the conversation that caused the models logic to completely collapse “ User: if science cant claim something is a definitive fact thenJul 18, 2026 9:03 AM

ESA Academy’s Navigation Training Coursehttps://www.esa.int/ESA_Multimedia/Videos/2026/07/ESA_Academy_s_Navigation_Training_CourseFrom 22-26 June 2026, 30 university students from Europe and Canada came together at the European Space Agency (ESA) Academy’s Training and Learning Facility in Belgium to explore the fundamentals of global navigation satellite systems (GNSS). This annual course prepares the next generation of navigation professionals with lectures from experts and hands-on exercises where students can apply their new knowledge. In this video, students and lecturers from the 2026 edition of the training course talk about the importance of satellite navigation, including Europe’s Galileo system, in their own words.Jul 17, 2026 4:00 PM

Show HN: Vulnsy – A platform for vulnerability management and reportinghttps://www.vulnsy.comI've spent over 10 years doing penetration tests and red team engagements, and one thing that always seemed to take far longer than it should was reporting.Most reporting platforms do a great job of managing reusable findings, but I still found myself digging out old reports and copying the same narrative sections over and over again.Many engagements contain pages describing methodology, attack paths, privilege escalation and post-exploitation that only need small changes between clients. I wanted those sections to be just as reusable as findings.I built Vulnsy to make the entire report reusable. Alongside reusable findings, you can build libraries of narrative sections, assemble reports quickly, customise them for each engagement and export professional reports without copying content between Word documents.There's lots more you can do too..Jul 17, 2026 11:02 AM

Show HN: Ratel, give agents unlimited tools and skills without context bloathttps://github.com/ratel-ai/ratelHi HN! We're Giacomo and Roberto, authors of Ratel (https://github.com/ratel-ai/ratel)We used to help SaaS companies build agents on top of their products. Whenever we wanted to expand the agents’ complexity/scope, by adding more and more tools and instructions, we always run in the same issue: context bloat, with frequent hallucinations and sky high token bills. So we started constantly engineering the agents, dynamically loading tools, splitting them into subagents, inventing our own way to support skillsAnd that's exactly when we started building Ratel: a library to let your agent keep its full catalog of tools and skills, but progressively disclosing only the few that actually matter for each turn. Now you can grow your agent's capabilities without breaking it or taking out a loan for itPeople are already using it in production, with a user cutting their token cost up to 81% in the first month without compromising the accuracyWe support both keyword and semantic retrieval, all in-pJul 16, 2026 4:11 PM

Show HN: Pokayoke – turn code conventions into checks for agentshttps://pokayoke.codesHey HN,Something I've been tinkering with in the background is a system to manage the "messy-middle" of TypeScript toolchains. Quite often, when I'm using Biome or any of the other linter / formatters, there will be repo conventions that I want to enforce (especially with AI agents), but which aren't supported by them, such as:- Enforcing lines-of-code limits in modules - Never using custom TailWind colors - Only using lowercase underscores in filenamesLike, this is quite "random" but also bread-and-butter stuff that it's easy to think or talk about when you're working by yourself or with a few other human teammates, but I've found that agents consistently miss these conventions if I put them in an AGENTS.md file for example.I wanted to make my esoteric repo conventions less stochastic, and more deterministic. I realised that agents are adept at writing the kind of code needed to run arbitrary checks on the TypeScript AST or workspace environment -- the kind of code that is cumbersome Jul 16, 2026 9:40 AM

Show HN: Running server scripts from smartphone via SSHhttps://c100k.eu/p/rebootx/updates/20260714-remote-runbooksI've added Remote Runbooks to RebootX, a mobile app for managing cloud and on-prem infrastructure, available on iOS and Android (freemium).The idea is simple: when PagerDuty wakes you up, many incidents boil down to executing the same sequence of SSH commands or operational steps. Instead of opening a laptop, you can execute a predefined runbook directly from your phone.Very usefyl when you're on the go.The scripts are retrieved from the server at `/usr/local/sbin/rebootx/runbooks`, also via SSH. If a script is prefixed with `__` (2 underscores), it's considered dangerous and the app warns you about it and ask for confirmation before executing it.Some will argue that with the perfect infra, you don't have to do all of this. By experience, none of us have the perfect infra so SSH-ing into the server (e.g VPS) is often required.Happy to hear about your feedback or ideas of improvement.Jul 15, 2026 1:30 PM

Show HN: GLP-RAM – Chrome extension reducing the browser memory appetitehttps://github.com/chebykinn/glp-ramHi!I've been struggling to use Chrome on my M1 Mac, because of how much RAM it eats, and memory saver wasn't enough.I've made this extension based on combination of features on multiple separate extensions: 1. When you click on the new tab, only the first tab loads in background, the rest will have a placeholder until you click. 2. Only 3 active tabs per window are allowed to be loaded, the rest will be killed. 3. The extension watches if you have unsaved input, paused or active media, or if the page is configured to send notifications and it keeps these tabs alive.I've been using it for a couple of weeks and it allows me to open way too many tabs to handle :)The extension is published in Chrome Web Store, let me know if you have any questions!Jul 14, 2026 4:14 PM

I’m a developer and have been a full-time trader for the past few years.Recently I have been using LLMs more and more in my trading and strategy. I always found it frustrating that Claude Code or GPT did not have direct access to actual financial information and had to rely on web search, so it couldn’t get me more granular numbers for specific options pricing.When making a trade I want to understand as much as possible about the stock. Instead of relying on analysts or interpretations of the data, I like to go directly to the truth. So whenever I have a trade thesis, I break research into a few parts: company research, analyst sentiment, and market sentiment.Last September I had a short thesis on Popmart Labubu's parent company.
