Show HN: PingChange – monitor web pages and OpenAPI specs for meaningful changeshttps://pingchange.comI built PingChange after watching the same thing happen over and over: a competitor prices change, a company policy is updated or important web content changes but there is often no reliable way to track it and know when it happens.The tool monitors web pages and API on a schedule and alerts your team when something meaningful changes. The keyword here is meaningful. Most monitoring tools trigger alerts for everything (ads, timestamps, cookie banners etc) and could be noisy or spam in your inbox. With PingChange, you can give it an instruction e.g "alert me when pricing changes" and it analyzes the page content and only notifies you when the changes matches what you're looking for on the page.Here are the main features:- Visual region selection / HTML element selector for tracking specific location on the page. - Changed diff viewer and screenshot of the pages. - Geolocation support - Monitor URL's from specific location to detect content from different geographies. - Anti-bot resoluti

Show HN: Huzzah – a novel approach to coding with AIhttps://www.danielvaughn.dev/posts/huzzah/Hello everyone. I've been working on this experimental editor called Huzzah.I've been working almost exclusively with coding agents since January of this year, and over the past few months I began to feel utterly exhausted by them. They're great, but I'm finding it more and more tedious to write full sentences for every change I want. Not only that, but it seems there's a complexity limit for codebases - beyond a certain point the agent begins confusing itself.I'd like to go back to writing code, but I don't want to go all the way back to fully manual coding. So I've come up with this interaction paradigm where you: 1. write pseudocode in whatever way makes the most sense to you 2. on save, the editor synchronizes your work to real source code 3. the pseudocode is persisted alongside the generated code, making your prompt effectively a stored record of intent. It may not work for every use case, but in my initial playthroughs I've found it very enjoyable.Right now it's just a proof of

Show HN: The First 3D Map of North America's Underground Geologyhttps://drillerdb.com/undergroundOver the past year, we've been running OCR on over 13 million handwritten and typed well logs across North America. After that we standardized the unique terms used by drillers across America into one format, which we've based on the USGS's lithologic standards.Before this project, underground data was fragmented by state or county jurisdictions and had different standards for reporting and terminology. This is the first nationwide lithological grid ever made at this scale.Most regions have pretty good coverage. However, be aware some areas like the southeast of the US especially has some pretty significant gaps due to the reporting standards in those regions.We also have a research program! https://drillerdb.com/research

Show HN: Pond – lossless archive for agent sessions in your own S3https://github.com/tenequm/pondI wanted all of my sessions preserved in one S3 storage dump I could access from anywhere. I couldn't find anything that could store sessions from multiple machines in one remote S3 bucket without running a database service anywhere, make them available as an MCP for my agent, and efficiently search through them. pond was born out of this, and out of my necessity to stop being locked to my laptop. I'm convinced that the sessions we generate with agents are one of the most precious assets we have and it still feels so odd to me that we throw them away like we couldn't care less.With pond you just point it at an S3 bucket or a local directory. Under the hood is in-process Lance. It also supports safe concurrent writes, so I just collect all my sessions from all my local machines, remote VMs and telegram agent setups in one bucket dir. Right now that is 14,861 sessions, 2.83M messages, 10.6 GiB, from 8 tools (Claude Code, Codex, opencode, pi, Claude Desktop, oh-my-pi and a few more).The o

Show HN: LilScript makes JavaScript libraries smallerhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49374554https://yeargun.github.io/lilscript/LilScript is a typed, compression-first language that compiles into js and sometimes into exec(will be more stable in future). The compiler mangles, reshapes the program into optimized js that happens to be 5-15% smaller (after gzip/br compression or raw) compared to the best performing JS toolchains like oxc/esbuild/terser/..## What has been proven to work with LilScript?- makes VSCode's core js modules 20% smaller on average- makes the world's most performant & small markdown rendering npm library, marked, 5-7% smaller and 10% faster- and many more demos.. works with pretty much any js/ts library## How it is compressing js finer than vite/oxc/terser/esbuild/..### 1.

Show HN: Sitmap – a World in Conflict inspired map maker for Cold War scenarioshttps://tomaytotomato.github.io/sitmap/I loved the game World in Conflict (2007)One of those aspects I enjoyed was the maps shown during the loading screens. The colour choices and aesthetics were really striking and made the game even more immersive.Using Claude Fable and some photoshop skills, with a few tweaks here and there. I managed to get something quite useable and probably useless to most people shipped.If you enjoy maps, military, strategy etc, hopefully it is of interest to you.

Algorithm Interview: a conversation between two parrotshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49373709Algorithm Interview: a conversation between two parrotsAll children know that parrots can talk. All adults understand that parrots simply repeat sounds.You'll laugh, but these same adults actually believe that an Algorithm Interview is a conversation between a very smart algorithm expert who is trying to find out whether the candidate understands algorithms at an acceptable level…So, how many ycombinator.com readers have successfully passed the algorithms interview? Probably tens of thousands.Well, how many of them were able to understand that breaking down sorting into independent stages is a Fundamental Discovery? Zero!Zero questions and comments: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49314420P.S. Have you ever thought that NOT everyone has a mental model? But most people just memorize ready-made answers instead of understanding the problem?I recommend reading The Programmers' Stone https://www.datapacrat.com/Opinion/Reciprocality/r0/index.html ---------------8

Ask HN: How do I get Fable to acknowledge me?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49369947Im using Fable for a lot of work, and I found it to flatout ignore questions I ask it while it works. Sometimes I can find the answer by turning on the transcript view so I can observe its thinking process, but if I don't do that, it almost never answers. anybody else? it annoys me more than I can express and I don't want to read all its thinking all the time. any advice? (im using the claude-desktop app. man I can't wait to get rid of fable - I hate using it, but its really good :-|
