Show HN: GG Translator – Turn gaming shit talk into friendly phraseshttps://ggtranslator.comFlaming teammates usually results in them cooperating even less. But sometimes you just need to let the devil out of you. Instead of venting on your teammates and pissing them off, vent into GG Translator and it will convert your toxic message into a friendly and constructive one to share with your team. https://ggtranslator.comMy background is in building web apps with Elixir and Phoenix. I made GG Translator in early 2024 to see if I could build a desktop app in a language I had never used before (Rust) with the help of AI. It was a great exercise and I found out that I could. I used Tauri instead of Electron because it has a smaller footprint. I built the app but never released it because I wasn't ready to support it.When GPT 5.6 came out earlier this month I pointed it at the old codebase and tasked it with rewriting that entire app (still in Rust using Tauri), modernizing, refactoring, and looking for any improvements that it could find.---The app is a sneak peek of how an AI profJul 26, 2026 10:23 PM

Show HN: The Occult Gatsbyhttps://occultgatsby.workThe Occult Great Gatsby The Great Gatsby Annotated for Esoteric Content: The Fourth Way, Alchemy, Tarot, and KabbalahAuthor is my father, Jon Woodson. I'm the web guy who wanted to bring this to a wider audience with a more interactive way to pop-up the notes about esoteric content.Author's blurb from Amazon self-publishing page:F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel, The Great Gatsby, is a manual for spiritual development. It is not a unique text, for many American modernist novels of canonical stature are similarly grounded in the occult. Fitzgerald was a follower of A. R. Orage who not only taught the Gurdjieff Work (the Fourth Way) but organized a vast literary network to further its goals.The chief reason that this occult literary tendency has remained in the shadows is that the arbiter of the movement has been poorly understood and critically neglected.The Great Gatsby belongs to a genre of the novel invented by Carl Van Vechten.

Show HN: I built a transparent terminal wrapper for unobtrusive AIhttps://github.com/emosenkis/terminaiI wanted a way to use my existing AI subscriptions as a terminal assistant to analyze shell output or help me with a complicated awk incantation from time to time without getting in my way the rest of the time. I couldn't find anything existing that does this do I built it! I used pvolok's excellent mprocs as a starting point and leaned heavily on Claude and Codex for coding all but the gnarliest parts while providing extensive guidance on how it should be implemented.I know that coding agents can run shell commands already but that puts the AI in the driver's seat. Terminai let's me be the driver, with codex or claude (or any other agent) sitting quietly in the backseat until I want its help.The hardest part was making it truly transparent. Most TUIs that embed a terminal break the terminal emulator's native scrollback and frequently also break copying to the clipboard. I worked hard to make sure that that both of these work exactly as they would without terminai. Along the way I had Jul 26, 2026 3:05 PM

Show HN: I built Gnoseed – free flahscards to learn K8s, DevOps, AI and morehttps://gnoseed.comHi everybody,I created my personal weekend project Gnoseed to learn more about Kubernetes with spaced repetition. Very soon it evolved into a small library of various topics about modern tech stack - AI/LLMs, DevOps, Security, and anything I found interesting. Currently it has 47 decks and ~4000 questions.A bit more about the process: I create decks from the open documentations or free papers I found here or there. The decks are built with a custom made pipeline of skills to extract the data, select questions, creating distractors and verification. I'm curating the entire process.To keep cards up-to-date I have a weekly automated routine to check release notes of selected topics and curating new cards.From the beginning I also realized just the random algorithm to show cards is not very efficient, so I implemented two spaced-repetition algorithms SM-2 and FSRS.Would you like to check it and give me some feedback?

ASK HN: Why has technology become so unreliable?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49056900Even though I'm a software engineer with long experience with serious projects, I'm become so disillusioned with the whole thing nowadays.Forget the ridiculous AI hype, forget about the lack of ethics and a moral compass; What's getting to me right now is the unreliability of it all. It seems like everything is held together with duct tape, and the tape is falling off.Just in the last few months, all these have happened:- My Macbook Air M1 has been acting up, refusing to charge in a stable manner. The audio jack is dead because apparently it is linked to the charging circuit. The screen sometimes shows a tint on a whim. Now it is dead and not charging at all. Granted, it has otherwise been a fine machine so far, and I've knocked it over a few times, but still. Even my old trusty 2014 Macbook Pro is still going strong, and I've abused that one much more.- I also can't use my old Macbook Pro well, because the replacement Transcend 256GB SSD I put in it around 2020 is now failing, causingJul 26, 2026 11:13 AM

Show HN: What 180k words look like as a temporal knowledge graph (Oz series)https://synaptale.com/graph?ch=100The graph is free to explore and requires no registration.SynapTale builds a model of a story as a temporal graph made up of nodes (entities) and edges (their actions and relationships). The graph is not a visualization of the wiki. The wiki, timelines, relationship histories, and analytics are projections of the graph.The current demo contains 232 entities, 1,852 edges, and a snapshot of the story’s state at every chapter. By chapter 100, it still remembers a promise made in chapter 8 and turns the story into a set of source-verifiable facts.The most interesting things can be found in the graph itself and in the Analytics tab. A few things I found:1. The character with the highest kill count is the Tin Woodman—the same character who cries over a beetle he accidentally crushed. Dorothy comes second, with three killing events. 2. Dorothy never deceives anyone during the first 100 chapters of the series. 3.

The Cost of Seamlessnesshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49048352The Hidden Cost of Frictionless Technology Taotuner — 2026I recently asked an AI assistant for restaurant recommendations. It listed five places, complete with ratings, distance, and popular dishes. I picked one, went, had a fine meal. Later, when a friend asked what I'd eaten, I couldn't remember the name of the restaurant.The experience wasn't bad. It was frictionless. And it left almost no trace.We've built tools that eliminate the gap between want and satisfaction, question and answer, curiosity and resolution. We call it seamlessness. We've assumed it's progress. But the gap wasn't inefficiency — it was where memory, judgment, and understanding used to form.What if removing it is making us less capable?The Pattern This isn't just about restaurant recommendations. The same dynamic shows up across AI, therapy, cities, and education.Take AI assistants. The industry evaluates them on speed, accuracy, and satisfaction. Those metrics capture whether the tool works.

Show HN: I made an algorithmic arena game with physics in 3Dhttps://algohol.net/Hey,I finally dare to raise the curtains to my 3D physics-modeled arena game, where players' algorithms fight and perform tasks.The arena treats algorithms as a black box, meaning that the implementation of algorithms is in the free hands of the players via the Algohol API. Algohol is roughly in the same context as Screeps or Battlesnake, but brings its own dimension to the genre.At the moment the only world is energy economy based SciFI, but there will be Terra (traditional kinetic combat) and Space. I'm most excited about Space because of its multidimensional control and strategic challenges, and I will likely add it next.In addition to open public arenas, competitions takes place in blind and sealed arena modes. The sealed mode is the actual competitive standard and is coming later. Players also have private freely buildable arenas where they can play and develop their algorithms by themselves and with friends. At first, everyone has the opportunity to create two algorithms, but theJul 25, 2026 12:18 PM

Ask HN: How would you harden AI changes to a 1M-line legacy SaaS before review?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49045271I’m not a software engineer, but I’ve been running an experiment to see whether agentic development could produce a useful prototype on top of an existing SaaS codebase.The codebase is 1M+ lines, 15 years old, hosted on Azure, and primarily written in C# and React.The prototype needs to be available for customer testing in September. No developers were available to work on it full-time, although I could occasionally get help with specific technical issues. An engineer will evaluate the implementation in August and decide how much confidence we can have in the AI-generated code so that we can decide how to “convert” the code to production-grade.My question is what I can do before August, primarily using AI tools and manual testing, to make the code as robust and reviewable as possible. I want to increase the likelihood that the AI-generated code would be so good that the path to production-grade would be closer to “copy-paste” than building everything again from scratch.Environment The Jul 25, 2026 7:19 AM

Show HN: Build native iOS widgets from any HTTPS endpointhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49033628I built Dashlet since I often found myself building different web dashboards for all sorts of data (custom page views monitoring, app downloads, info from my home sensors) and I quickly got tired of always having to navigate to a page in Safari and reenter credentials to access them.I wanted to just simply be able to see it on my phone, when scrolling around it - in almost realtime.I've built bespoke apps (just for myself) in the past, that mapped a specific custom API for that purpose, but it was a hassle anytime I changed something in the response or added some new API for myself.So, Dashlet is an answer to that - it can handle any JSON (or XML, or even image) endpoints and has a nice interactive way of picking which values out of it should be displayed in which type of widget. So, if something has an API but no app (or no widget), Dashlet lets you point it at an HTTPS endpoint, visually map fields from JSON/XML/images, and create native Home Screen (also lock screen and Apple Watch)Jul 24, 2026 10:41 AM
