Fragmented medical records delayed treatment for monthshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45778907My whole family got our health records stolen through a data breach a few years back. Since then, I've been obsessed with the problem of fragmented health data. Plus, my uncle traveled to Turkey for alcoholism treatment. It took MONTHS to get started because his medical records were scattered across different hospitals and systems. Doctors couldn't access his full history, which delayed care when he needed it most. I got really pissed off and when I went down the rabbit whole of research, turns out this problem was freaking common. They sell our data, it get hacked, it's hard to access and practically use it in any way without consent from us and on top of that researchers get affected too. All because of these institutions and big pharma. And i know the current adminitration announced having all of our health records in one place but that hard to trust. SO I decided to create a way we can all have our records in one encrypted vault and when someone(doctors, researchers and sport labs)Nov 1, 2025 2:59 AM

Show HN: AI app that reframes emotionally charged texts (featured in WIRED)https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45760235Hi HN, I’m Sol (YC06). I built BestInterest (https://bestinterest.app) solo to help co-parents communicate peacefully after divorce. It was just featured in WIRED (https://www.wired.com/story/ai-emotional-spellcheck-difficul...) - without any PR.The idea came from personal experience — a painful divorce and challenging co-parenting communication. Courts often tell co-parents to keep things business-like and child-focused, which sounds simple but is brutally hard in practice. I realized AI can do what humans often can’t — remove emotion from the loop. It started as a simple theory — that AI could actually prevent emotional abuse in digital communication.I’d taken a break from tech after years at Google (I was a PM there), but eventually brushed off the dusties and decided to build it myself.THE STACKGoogle Cloud + Firebase + Gemini (with some OpenAI functionality still in place) + Twilio.

Yet another way to use Tornado Cash in 2025, a tool implemented in Python&C++https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45728305Github Repo: https://github.com/gokgokdak/tornadocash-pyI re-implemented the Tornado Cash command-line tool in Python to interact with the Tornao Cash contracts.*Compares to the original one, I added some practical features*1. Batch deposit & withdrawal Manage large amounts of ETH with a single command and distribute funds across different instances easily.2. Deposit age query Check how many deposit and withdrawal events have happened since your deposit, the higher the number, the better mixed your funds are.*Also, some engineering and performance improvements*The original project stores event history in JSON files and relies on subgraphs for data analysis. In this Python rewrite, I switched to SQLite as the storage layer, and all analytics will be built on top of the database (with proper indexing/transactions), making queries faster, more consistent, and easier to maintain.Aside from zk-proof generation/verification, I re-implemented the rest of the heavy algorithms in C++ via pybindOct 28, 2025 1:19 AM

Which is the best 100% India based cloud hosting service provider?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45720602I'm a freelance web developer who develops apps and services for this local client, they're interested in shifting all cloud dependencies from foreign based services like Amazon AWS/EC2 to locally based companies here in India.I'm aware that AWS already offers local instances here at Mumbai and Hyderabad (ap-south-1/2) but they want to remove foreign dependency completely for whatever reason.My understanding is that most Indian cloud services are just in their infancy at this stage and still act as resellers of global providers like AWS or Alibaba Cloud, thus making them nothing more than costly middle-men or arbitrages. When I tried to put forth this point, the client asked me to research purely India based cloud hosting providers who aren't depending on any outside entities for their network infrastructure.They're even prepared to pay a small premium on the hosting price if such a service exists. Their idea (I think) is to ensure that money is spent in the home country and doesn't leOct 27, 2025 1:05 PM
