Show HN: Terraforming with Minimal Founders – Method for Diversity from Two?https://github.com/initsixdev/founder-population-initThis is an experiment based on an idea I had recently:If you wanted to seed a new world with a species do you really need to carry a large archive? Or could a tiny founding population carry a temporary mechanism that generates population-level genetic diversity during the first few generations, then shuts itself off?I think this could be plausible for a sufficiently advanced civilization, so I started trying to model the population-genetics side of it.What do you think? Like the idea?Aug 16, 2026 7:56 PM

Show HN: Manthan a MCP server to store Concept cards with prerequisite linkshttps://manthan.sirune.tech/share.html?token=942df0d3590d422aa74d9b44f5d3ba77I generally am a forgetful person who remembers very little of what is read sometime ago. I also tried using many of tools related to hardcoded flashcards but they may not present the full picture. I can't share it with my friends about what i am learning easily without signin up. manthan solves for that. I can create a deck of cards that have prerequisites and since this is a MCP any ai agent which has mcp capability can do this. Its been a time saver for me to recap what is the dense things that are there in a topic. the above one is related to build things that don't scale by PG. Also this has been helpful in sharing a common book like high output management or monetizing innovation which were useful to people some sessions of AI Learn Circle in Bangalore. let me know if there is anything to improve and if this is a useful tool. if you want the prerequisite/roadmap view, sign in ,it adds the deck to your account and you can open it in the app from there.Aug 16, 2026 7:41 PM
