Ask HN: Why don't Americans hire human assistants for everyday tasks?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45316982in the US, there doesn't seem to be much of a demand for "domestic labor". the idea of personal assistants or housekeepers is seen as something exclusively for the ultra-wealthy, but i'm not sure why.in particular, i'm curious about what this says about the potential for the adoption of AI-based assistants.for example: there's all sorts of stuff that I have to do outside of work that eat into my free time ( grocery shopping, simple meal prep, light housecleaning, running random errands). I'd love to be able to outsource all that to a trusted assistant that I pay a fair wage to.back of the envelope math makes something like this seem like it should be financially plausibly for a lot of folks:- ask a mid-career software engineer making 150k if they'd trade 10k/year to get an additional 10hrs/week of free time back, and I think a LOT would say yes.- at that rate an assistant would get 4 clients to work a 'normal' 40hour week and make a ~median salary of 40k/yr.So why don't we see arrangemSep 20, 2025 8:15 PM

Show HN: Instorier – story-first website builder. No-code, AI-optionalhttps://instorier.com/We're two founders from Tromsø, Norway who have spent the past 4,5 years bootstrapping Instorier. Everything you see here, from the editor to the runtime, we built from scratch.Instorier is a modern website builder focused on storytelling. Out of the box it supports 3D/WebGL scenes, map journeys, and motion, with real-time collaboration and instant hosting. You can also embed Instorier stories into an existing site without a migration.What's new now: an AI-optional onboarding flow. It helps you get started quickly, but keeps authorship yours. This isn't about generating cookie-cutter sites, it's about lowering the barrier to telling meaningful stories online.We've found some early product-market fit in the media industry, like with Stavanger Aftenblad in Norway and Scrolli.co in Türkiye. At the same time, broader adoption has been harder. That's why we're now also exploring use cases for startups, comms teams, and agencies, while keeping the focus on what we believe makes any landing pSep 17, 2025 12:15 PM

Ask HN: Has the Gaza war affected the HN crowd?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45199167I'm curious whether others in the HN community have felt ripple effects from the Gaza war—either directly or indirectly.In Israel, the war has triggered a noticeable academic brain drain, with foreign students and collaborators pulling back from Israeli institutions (Haaretz). In tech, the impact has been even more pronounced: thousands of workers have relocated abroad, especially to the U.S., and investment in Israeli startups has dropped sharply. Some VCs now require Israeli companies to incorporate outside Israel to mitigate perceived risks (Calcalist).At the same time, there's growing tension within global tech companies. Internal protests—especially at firms like Google and Microsoft—have raised questions about how Israeli professionals are perceived, and whether political affiliations or national origin are starting to affect hiring, collaboration, or workplace culture. Google recently fired 28 employees after a sit-in protest over its cloud contract with Israel (The Verge), and Sep 10, 2025 3:29 PM

Show HN: Vizzly – Visual testing platform with built-in review workflowshttps://vizzly.devHey HN! I’m Robert. I worked on [Percy’s SDKs/support from 2018–2022.](https://github.com/percy/cli/graphs/contributors) If you ever reached out to support or opened an issue, I probably helped you. Hopefully it was positive :) After a few years away, visual testing still felt stuck, so I'm building Vizzly.The problem: Design handoffs kinda suck. Designers make beautiful specs, devs implement them, then everyone realizes the details got lost somewhere. Current visual testing tools catch broken CSS but miss the real issue - making sure what ships actually matches what was designed, functionally (like really in the browser/OS/etc).What it is- Visual testing + review where you send actual screenshots (not DOM re-renders). Can be _any_ image to review (PDFS!)- Collaboration built-in: reviewer assignment, approvals, @mentions, screenshot-level threads.- Baselines: automatic (Git-aware), manual (not Git-based), or hybrid.- Team-based pricing; generous free plan for OSS; on-prem available.WhaSep 7, 2025 3:44 PM
