Ask HN: Help me navigate a PIP at a remote startup in the NetherlandsHey HN,I'm in a tough spot and could use some outside perspective, especially from anyone who's navigated startup politics or EU/Dutch employment law.I'm a senior engineer with a background at bigger tech companies in the US. A few months ago, I took a job at a small-ish (around 150 people), fully remote tech startup based in Europe. The pay is good for the EU, though definitely a big step down from my US salary. The main reason for the move was to get a visa and work in Europe, and the project (AI stuff) seemed really exciting.It's been a chaotic ride. The project has been in a constant "prototyping" phase, with the product direction pivoting at least 4-5 times since I joined. As the main frontend dev, I've been building and refactoring constantly to keep up. It's been high-pressure, but I thought we were making good progress.Recently, things took a sharp turn. My manager, who is new to management and I report directly to, put me on a formal PIP. This was a total shock, as it was lite

Show HN: An API for human-powered browser tasksAt APM Help, we have a large team that performs repetitive, browser-based tasks. Years ago, to manage this work securely and get a clear audit trail, we built an internal platform we call "Hub." It's essentially a locked-down environment where our team works that records their sessions, tracks every interaction, and prevents data from being copied or shared. It's been our internal source of truth for years.More recently, like many companies, we've been building more automation. And like everyone else, we've seen our automations fail on edge cases—a weirdly formatted invoice our parser can't read, a website layout change that breaks a scraper, etc. Our team would have to manually step in to fix these.We realized other developers must have this exact same problem, but without a 250-person team on standby. So we connected our old, battle-tested Hub to a new, modern front door: a Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) API. We're calling it browser-work.com.The idea is simple: when you hit a task that ne

Show HN: Duende: Web UX for guiding Gemini as it improves your source codeI wrote a simple web UX in Python/JavaScript that spawns a conversation with Google Gemini with MCP commands that let it work on a specific coding task that you specify: http://github.com/alefore/duendeThe UX lets you observe the conversation and provide guidance (e.g. "don't implement Foo through Bar, that's suboptimal; instead …").It supports a `--review` mode, where once the main conversation says "I'm done with the task", various "evaluation" conversations are spawned, each focusing on reviewing the change from a very specific angle (e.g. "does it introduce useless comments?"). In the future, I'm considering adding other workflows.I've used it mostly to develop itself (I started with a super rudimentary manual implementation and then mostly used Duende to extend its own implementation) as well as (with moderate success) to add a few new features to [my C++ text editor](http://github.com/alefore/edge).It's been a lot of fun. I'm still developing my intuitions for what works and what

Show HN: Made a CD interest for my familyIt started, as many meaningful projects often do, not with a grand vision, but with a quiet frustration. I remember sitting with my aunt, a meticulous planner, as she tried to make sense of her savings. She had a small sum set aside and was looking into Certificates of Deposit, trying to find the best home for her hard-earned money. Bank websites were a maze of fine print, varying terms, and different compounding frequencies. She’d painstakingly jot down numbers, trying to compare a 3-year CD with quarterly compounding against a 5-year one with monthly compounding, all while battling the niggling fear of making a mistake. Her spreadsheet was a patchwork of formulas she wasn't entirely confident in, and the whole process left her feeling overwhelmed, not empowered.Watching her struggle, I felt a familiar ache. I’d been there myself. The financial world, for all its talk of transparency, often felt deliberately opaque. Calculating compound interest manually, or even with basic online too
