NASA Study Points to Smoother Air Taxi Rideshttps://www.nasa.gov/centers-and-facilities/armstrong/nasa-study-points-to-smoother-air-taxi-rides/No one wants to get into an uncomfortable aircraft. NASA research could help the emerging industry of air taxis —small, vertical-takeoff-and-landing aircraft meant for short trips — understand the relationship between comfort and willingness to fly. That’s where NASA comes in, with data that can help identify how to plan air taxi rides that can […]Jul 13, 2026 9:46 PM

Show HN: Finterm.ai Bloomberg terminal for Claude Codehttps://finterm.ai/Hi, my name is Kam, and today my cofounder Josh and I are shipping Finterm, a CLI that gives coding agents direct access to financial data: stock prices, options data, SEC filings, and Ticker Deep Research, a filtered ticker news search. 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.

Show HN: PandaPage – host an HTML page with one curl, no signup, auto-expireshttps://pandapage.clawshop.shI wanted to put a quick HTML page online to share, a mockup or a one-off demo, without a signup, a git repo, or a build step. Existing options all wanted one of those, so I built this.One request creates a site:``` curl -X POST https://pandapage.clawshop.sh/api/deploy \ -H "content-type: application/json" \ -d '{"files":{"index.html":"hi"}}' ```You get back a URL like pandapage.clawshop.sh// and a token. The token is the only thing gating updates and deletes, so there are no accounts. You can also POST a zip instead of JSON, and binaries go as base64.Pages expire after 24h by default (configurable per deploy from 10 minutes to 7 days, and re-deploying resets the clock). Expiry is a KV key TTL, so a page starts returning 404 the moment it lapses, and an R2 lifecycle rule sweeps the underlying files a few days later. No cron job.Because it is just a JSON API with no auth handshake, coding agents can deploy to it directly. I gave Claude Code a short prompt and now "host this page" turns iJul 9, 2026 7:22 AM

Show HN: perl-lsp – annotation free static analysis for Perlhttps://github.com/tree-sitter-perl/perl-lspBuilt in Rust on top of ts-parser-perl and tower-lsp. Witness bags with graph traversal (value edges, call flow edges).How it works: - builds witnesses and scopes by walking the parse tree. Fully known values get concrete types, otherwise they get an edge pointing to the last witness we have for this symbol - a worklist runs to a fixed point: reducers fold each symbol's witnesses and chase edges. At this point, the witness bag is complete and ready to use - all downstream features are queries into the bag, following along the graph edges that are relevantExtensible - you can bring your own Rhai plugin to shortcut common patterns (exporters and OOP frameworks), or even add new types of definitions (worker tasks and web routes).The build/query timing distinction with edges lets you late bind types, which is duly similar to how Perl itself works: `Foo->new` isn't known if it's the constructor for Foo or calling a method on the sub name `Foo`; late binding lets you make that call after theJun 23, 2026 1:17 PM

Show HN: Monkdev is a toolkit and methodology for coding with LLMshttps://github.com/oeo/monkdevI'm sure many people have some solutions similar to this but I've been using some variation of this since roughly the release of Opus 3 to get higher quality results. Like, significantly higher. So I decided to make it into a more structured package.Problem: bad decisions and short sighted solutions due to the LLM not having enough context before acting. They'd read one file, or a few segments of a set of files using a super conservative offset and limit, guess about the rest, apply a patch, run a unit test and then tell you with its entire chest that the code is production-ready.Those bandaids over time became debt, drift, complexity. Unnecessary LOC in a codebase where I find myself wondering is this thing even making me more efficient or should I be in VIM more often and just save myself the API costs (I use OpenCode + OpenRouter and have been known to blast through hundreds of dollars a day in spend using Frontier models).I found that, for whatever reason, LLMs respond to role-playMay 26, 2026 7:08 PM

Show HN: Reinhardt – Django-style Rust framework; WASM+SSR from one DSLhttps://github.com/kent8192/reinhardt-webReinhardt is a Rust web framework where one component DSL compiles to both WASM (client) and server-rendered HTML — a single file describes both sides of a page, with no separate frontend codebase, no JS build toolchain, and no duplicated types across the client/server boundary.It also bundles what Django/DRF users expect: an ORM with auto-generated migrations from #[model] macros, DI, auth, admin, REST, background tasks, and i18n. Feature flags let you pull in just what you need (minimal / standard / full), or import individual crates directly.I built it after moving from Django/DRF to Rust and repeatedly re-assembling the same Axum + ORM + migrations + auth stack for every project.Quickstart: https://reinhardt-web.dev/quickstart/v0.1.0-rc.18 release: Crates.io (published as reinhardt-web; the shorter name was taken): https://crates.io/crates/reinhardt-webBSD 3-Clause.Apr 22, 2026 1:00 PM

Instead of writing my manuscript, I built a toolhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47849297Hi my name is Jeff, and I am a chronic procrastinator when it comes to my writing…Tell me that doesn’t sound familiar, I’ve literally written two blogs about this instead of actually writing my manuscript, cause literally anything (even scrubbing the toilet) is more compelling than the grind of getting through chapter 6.I actually started writing a tool in early January 2025. At the time, I was trying to find a way to gamify my writing. I wasn’t really looking to launch a serious writing tool at the time, just find a way to hack my brain into doing the work (and find another excuse to not write).The result of that was a simple text box with a word counter (0/500 words) that used a little bit of JavaScript to count the words you dumped in the box, deduct any shorter than 3 letters and then let you know if you hit your writing goal for the day (and you even got some fireworks!)The tool worked, I found myself anticipating pasting my daily writing progress into the box for that dopamine reApr 21, 2026 2:25 PM

Show HN: I made an AI that reviews iPhone apps – 1h of autonomous GUI workhttps://understudy-ai.github.io/understudy/I've been building Understudy, an open-source GUI agent for macOS. Wanted to push the GUI stuff beyond the usual short demos, so I tried turning it into an iPhone app reviewer.You give it one prompt. It browses the real App Store in Chrome, installs the app on a real iPhone through macOS iPhone Mirroring (not a simulator), opens the app and explores it — never seen Snapseed before — records clips and screenshots, composites a narrated review video with FFmpeg locally, uploads it to YouTube, then deletes the app. About an hour, didn't touch the keyboard.The exploration part is what I'm happiest with. The agent reads the App Store description, goes "they say background removal works, let me try that," and then figures out an unfamiliar app on its own. It regrounds from the live screenshot every action, so unexpected dialogs or UI changes don't kill it.The reason it can sustain an hour of work: each of the 6 stages runs as a separate child session with its own context.
