Show HN: RISCY-V02: A 16-bit 2-cycle RISC-V-ish CPU in the 6502 footprinthttps://github.com/mysterymath/riscyv02-skyFinally finished my little CPU project, RISCY-V02. I built it (with Claude) to challenge the notion that the 6502 was a "local optimum" in its transistor budget. Given the constraints of 1970s home computers (~1 MHz DRAM, so raw clock speed doesn't help), could RISC have been a better design choice? This design argues yes: pipelining, barrel shifters, and more registers beat microcode PLAs, questionable addressing modes, and hardware BCD.Highlights:8x 16-bit general-purpose registers (vs 3x 8-bit on 6502)2-stage pipeline (Fetch/Execute) with speculative fetch61 fixed 16-bit instructions2-cycle interrupt entry (vs 7 on 6502)13,844 SRAM-adjusted transistors (vs 13,176 for 6502 on same process)1.0-2.6x faster than 6502 across common routinesGDS viewer: https://mysterymath.github.io/riscyv02-skyTiny Tapeout Shuttle Entry: https://app.tinytapeout.com/projects/3829Mar 6, 2026 1:32 AM

Show HN: A user daemon to provide an age-bracketing APIhttps://github.com/danudey/aged(Before you react: I think these laws are pointless and dumb too, but they're still laws so here we are)Hi all, I saw a lot of talk about the new California (and pending Colorado) laws about requiring operating systems to provide an API to return a user's age bracket to applications. While I think most people agree that this is asinine, pointless, full of holes, open to abuse, etc. etc., it's also a legal requirement anyway.I've been playing with Claude Code lately and so I thought this would be a useful experiment - a small, self-contained project with a finite surface area and well-defined requirements. I should say the experiment wasn't whether Claude could do this, but whether I could provide decent instructions for Claude to do this and what level of detail I could get away with.Anyway, here's my latest project - aged, the age daemon. It's a straightforward app that I could have written myself despite being new to Rust, but the real experiment was in the extra features that I had Mar 5, 2026 7:37 PM

Show HN: Cruxible Core – Deterministic decision engine with receipts for agentshttps://github.com/cruxible-ai/cruxible-coreCruxible Core is an open source MCP server/runtime that lets you define a decision domain in YAML (entities, relationships, queries, constraints), then run queries deterministically via AI agents (Codex, Claude Code, Cursor).Every query returns a DAG receipt showing exactly how the result was derived (nodes traversed, filters/constraints applied, outputs). The goal is to make agent decisions auditable and reproducible instead of prompt-dependent.I built this because LLMs are strong at orchestration and general reasoning, but high-stakes decision logic often needs deterministic execution and explicit proof trails. Cruxible receipts are meant to be audited, replayed, and challenged.There’s also a feedback loop: users can approve/correct/reject edges and update confidence/evidence, so domain knowledge and decision trails compound across sessions.Demos included: - Drug interactions (DDinter + CYP450) - OFAC sanctions screening (ownership chains) - MITRE ATT&CK threat modelingKnown limitatiMar 5, 2026 6:47 PM

Show HN: Liftstack – Snippet-level A/B testing for CRM marketershttps://www.liftstack.com/I've spent years in CRM and email marketing, and one thing has always driven me mad: the constant pressure from the business to "test everything" when you know damn well you'll never reach statistical significance.Most ESP's use frequentist models. You need a fixed sample size calculated upfront, you can't peek at results early without inflating your false positive rate, and if your list isn't massive, you're waiting weeks for a result that often comes back inconclusive anyway. So teams either ignore the statistics entirely and just pick whichever variant "looks better" after a day, or they stop testing altogether. Either way, you learn nothing.On top of that, the testing workflow itself is painful. You duplicate your entire template, change the one thing you want to test (a subject line, a hero image, a CTA), split your audience, send, and wait. Want to test two things at once? Now you need four template versions. Three things? Eight versions. It scales terribly, and most teams just dMar 5, 2026 3:18 PM
