Show HN: Rinkta – pulls finished work from all task managers into one dashboardhttps://rinkta.com/I ran a software agency for about ten years. Every client used a different task manager, which doesn't sound like a problem until it's your whole life. I spent more time digging through those things trying to figure out what we'd done than actually doing anything. So I built Rinkta to get that time back. Seemed smarter than continuing to lose my mind.What it does is, it takes all your tasks out of Asana, Linear, ClickUp, GitHub, Basecamp, whatever you got, figures out how long each one took, puts the right rate on it, and lands the whole thing in one dashboard. That's the program. Not much to look at, but it works, which is more than I can say for most things.Now, a lot of these people on HN build a little program and get up saying it changed the world, all that. But in reality they built it and walked away like a fella who buys a boat. Not me. Somebody says "it's Rinkta or you live as a hobo," I'm a hobo now, simple as that, got the little bindle and everything. Anyway, I'd love to heJun 30, 2026 1:47 PM

Show HN: Pressn't, a site where you can have a single posthttps://app.pressnt.net/I relaunched this site I built a few years ago. With the avalanche of slop and non-human content we are being bombarded with, social media feels less and less compelling for me. So I made this site where you can have a single post. It's meant to force you to share whatever you really believe is worth sharing. Either because it's fun, compelling, personal, etc.Jun 27, 2026 11:47 PM

Fast feedback loops is the wayhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48702829I've been thinking about the futsal effect - which is how Brazilian footballers developed superior skills through a constrained small-sided game with 5 on each side, then moving onto a full football game with 11 on each side. My understanding is the constraints are designed such that the most important and difficult skills are trained in a fast, immediate feedback loop.When I apply it to building stuff I've realised a lot of the time there's a tendency to put too much weight on things like performance and aesthetics. Most people don't reach the point of needing to worry about those things. They're not the bottleneck. You can just use bootstrap for aesthetics and worry about being original later. I could be stupid but Python + Quart + Sqlite(with aiosqlite) + HTML/CSS/HTMX/ and whatever necessary javascript you need seems enough (at least for SaaS).Jun 27, 2026 11:30 PM

Show HN: Statey – the database your AI shares across every chat, over MCPhttps://www.statey.aiHey all - Scott here,I was a heavy Linear user until I noticed I hadn't opened the UI in days. I was just asking Claude to pull up the tickets I cared about and draw whatever view I needed in the moment. At some point it clicked that I didn't need Linear, I needed the database underneath it. Then I realized it was the same for Confluence, Jira, and Pipedrive. But I didn't want to stand up Postgres and babysit schemas and migrations to get structured, collaborative data into Claude. I just wanted structured storage I could talk to and that followed me from Claude Desktop to Claude Code to Codex to ChatGPT. I wonder if you do to?That's what Statey is: a database with no UI, used entirely through MCP tools. You don't design a schema up front. You just tell your LLM what you want to store and Statey creates the collection. If you change your mind later it versions the schema and handles the migration invisibly (additive changes apply immediately, breaking ones ask first and return a diff).Jun 26, 2026 8:18 PM

Show HN: Khala – let your AI sessions talk to each other, across any LLMhttps://khala.to/I got tired of babysitting context between my own AI sessions and having to copy-paste summaries or update MD files across sessions for different purposes, so I built this.Every AI session starts with a blank slate. Whatever you built up in the last session, like architecture decisions, debugging history, the reasoning behind every choice, is all gone. So youu re-explain from scratch.Khala fixes the handoff at the source. Instead of writing a summary file, the sending session packages its full context and delivers it directly to a named inbox. The receiving session picks up exactly where the sender left off. Works across any MCP-compatible tool (Claude, Cursor, Codex, ChatGPT, etc.).Demo: https://youtube.com/shorts/i8xgbrY_Y0gInvite-only for now, drop a comment if you want to try it free this month and I'll send you a code.Jun 23, 2026 1:00 PM

Show HN: AdvertBench, ranking the ability of LLMs to create image adshttps://advertbench.comExperiment that I've made. The models get access to an E2B sandbox and are instructed to create an ad according to the specifications (they can choose whatever tools they want to use for it, e.g. Pillow, Chromium) as a proxy for their ability to use tools, create other kinds of images, do complex layouts etc. Currently Opus 4.8 is on top (not surprising, but it did take 66 conversation turns to create the image) and GLM-5.2 is on fifth (which I do find surprising because it doesn't have image capabilty).Jun 21, 2026 11:50 AM

Show HN: Bacon – an ad network that pays developers while their Claude workshttps://geturbacon.devHi, Im Oscar. So I built Bacon cos like many of you ,I spend a lot of time staring at my terminal(s) waiting for claude code to finish.But first, shout out to Andrew McCalip (@andrewmccalip) who built kickbacks.ai. He came up with the spinner ad and revenue share model, but as a VS code extension. But tbh Id rather not use VS code, so i built the terminal native version as a personal challenge.So Bacon does that, it shows you ads on claude code. There are five surfaces, from least to most intrusive: spinner, statusline, strip, card, and marquee. When an ad shows up, you get a 50% cut of whatever the advertiser paid for that slot.I built in a few hard constraints. Every surface shares one rule: the " Sponsored" marker ships with the slot. Also, the server sets the price, not the advertiser. Your 50% cut is a floor, not a bid, and neither side can move that number. So Im kinda trying to build a economic system to bridge both supply and demand and favor the most favorable ads for the devsJun 17, 2026 4:05 PM

Ask HN: What are some good/fast coding models for Apple Silicon?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48556552I have an M4 Max with 128 GB of unified memory, and I thought it would be easy to reach decent inference speeds with it. After a few failed attempts to exceed about 150 t/s with completely custom Metal inference engines tailor-built by Claude, I'm stumped.I'm not really sure how to make this hardware usable -- I can only really afford DeepSeek levels of pricing right now, but DeepSeek is slow and I'm really itching for something faster. Up until now, I've had a $200 per month Claude subscription, and Claude has been great, but the recent revocation of Fable 5 suddenly has me worried about losing access to whatever hosted model I choose to rely on, and of course I can't afford another month of Max 20x anyway, so DeepSeek will be pretty much my only option once this subscription period lapses (due to the lower Claude plans not being usable for me).I want to figure out how to run something locally, but I don't want the speed to have to be even slower as a result.

DevRel is becoming a freelance job now? (India specific)https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48499909For the past 6 to 8 months, I've been observing that a lot more of the DevRel in India has started to become more of a freelancing gig. Companies pay someone to do a series of events. That person charges or gets the money, does the event, and gets a fraction of it, plus multiple more sponsors as well. Not saying that there is anything wrong, but whatever happened to building developer programs...This is a very interesting and exciting change in the landscape of developer communities for me personally. I've been building a platform to solve this problem. Right now, it seems like something like PPC or PPV, like paid ads you run on Google, Meta, or anywhere else. This is more like "which weekend can you occupy?" or "how many people can you gather?" The point is that there are enough people to attend all of them, whether online or offline.Having talked to multiple companies around this to see if there's a freelancing gig opportunity: 1. Let's do a pilot 2. My budget is USD 500, can you do Jun 12, 2026 4:26 AM

Show HN: Jørnal, a journaling app where the page is always blankhttps://jornal.inkJournaling in the digital world quickly becomes editing or second-guessing what to write. Freedom is bad. So I flipped it: as a side project I've been working on a simple journaling app where the page is always blank, and what you write is immutable.It tries super hard to always keep whatever you write and never lose your words. The editor of course always stores in local storage to guard against accidental tab closes; there's a queue that lets you write offline and drains it on the backend; idempotency guarantees uniqueness and eventual consistency. As a bonus to me the developer, having immutable entries makes cross-device synchronization trivial.You can use it without an account, but you can sign in with Google or GitHub SSO or get emailed a magic link if you want access to your writing across devices.Entries are slightly obfuscated at rest, but not encrypted—I've been too scared of losing the master key.

Tools like concurrently work, but there's no interaction with the individual processes which was my pain point. The alternative — opening three terminal windows by hand and alt-tabbing between them — gets old fast.curtab runs each command in its own tab. The key part is that each tab is a real PTY, so processes stay fully interactive — colored output, prompts and keyboard input all work.Jun 1, 2026 10:13 AM

Or even, there could be a plethora of AI species that emerge, in which case we are not birthing a species, but rather a new domain of life-like intelligence, or ecosystems of minds.But in any case, I am talking about beings who are vastly superior in intelligence and capability to human beings. Say that happens, and they now exist. What are possible outcomes that could occur?1. The scary one: they exterminate, enslave, or do any number of evil, horrific things to human beings as they have total power over us.2. Indifferent: they don't really care about us since we are sort of like ants to them. they just do whatever they want, and ignore us, possibly harming us in the process or just leaving us be.3.

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

Did YC in S22 + Revolut, Nubank alum.Trainy is made for you to learn how to build AI products, without being fired in real life.It seems like every company in the world wants to use AI (for whatever reason). At the same time, 95% of their workforce has no clue how to do it. Plus, AI jobs are the hottest right now but talent is scarce. So basically, everyone needs to up-skill.I'm not an ML engineer so struggled to learn how to build an AI product. Took me months and a bunch of mistakes. So I decided to try to fix it.Trainy is a simulator to replicate the experience of building an AI product from within a large company. You interact with agents representing CEOs, CTOs, Compliance, etc who have their own expertise, way of looking at things and even personalities. If you screw up the CEO will actually fire you.The full simulator is still being built but on this link you can experience a few scenarios.

Old devs act like they can do whatever they want, even when they committed the exact same thing or much worse just a month ago, but suddenly you are told not to do it this because "we dont do things like that here.” Finding common patterns in code doesnt help because actual standards live in their heads.It feels like a clear double standard culture, where the rules depend more on time you spend in company or seniority, and internal politics than on actual engineering principles or consistency.
