Non-humanoid home robot suggestionhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48583340Hello, I want to suggest a home robot for daily life missions. The purpose of this robot is to help people with everyday tasks at home - cooking, cleaning, and everything in between - at an affordable price. Principle Architecture: The robot is wheeled (not humanoid) and controlled by an LLM. Instead of human-like arms, it uses swappable tools. Each tool is designed for a specific task. The LLM controls the robot through 3 protocols only: 1. API commands - the LLM tells the robot what to do 2. Shared map - the robot maps the house in 2-3 hours on first setup. Both the robot and the LLM share the exact same map 3. Visual images - the robot sends photos to the LLM, the LLM sees what is happening and makes decisions The Tools: Each tool contains its own API and README file. When the robot connects a tool, the LLM reads the README and immediately knows how to use it - like installing an app. Examples: egg breaker, dish washer, floor cleaner. Each tool costs ~$50. A whole ecosystem of toolsJun 18, 2026 10:25 AM

Ask HN: How to be alone?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47296547For the first time in my life, at 38, I'm alone. When I was 18 I basically moved out of my parents' straight in with my highschool sweetheart, and we were together ever since. That chapter of my life is over now, and I'm finding the adjustment very difficult.There are a few parts to the difficulty. One is that when I have something to say about my day, there's nowhere to say it; no one on HN cares whether I fixed up the blinds or cooked pork steaks. I hang out in an IRC chatroom for that, but sometimes nobody's around for hours.Another is that weekends are hard. I used to be in a house filled with life each weekend, and now it's me and my dog (and my cat, when he decides to grace me with his presence). Having animals helps somewhat, but it's still hard simply being alone with myself for ~60 hours.I'm also finding it difficult to think of things to do. My default action is to play games, but it feels empty, both because I used to be able to play games alongside someone else and because Mar 8, 2026 11:41 AM

Show HN: ChoresMates – Splitwise, but for Household Choreshttps://apps.apple.com/us/app/choresmates/id6757452488Hey HN, I built ChoresMates to solve a problem every couple and roommate knows: the "I do more around the house" argument.The idea is simple — every chore gets a point value based on effort (cooking dinner = 8 pts, loading the dishwasher = 2 pts). When you complete a chore, you log it and earn points. A real-time leaderboard shows who's actually pulling their weight. The numbers replace the argument.A few things that make it work in practice:Effort-weighted points — Not all chores are equal. Scrubbing the bathroom is worth more than wiping a counter. This prevents gaming the system with a bunch of tiny tasks. Overdue penalties — Procrastinating on an assigned chore costs you points per day. Creates just enough pressure to get things done. Photo proof — Solves the "I did it but you didn't notice" problem. Rotation scheduling — Automatically rotates who's responsible for recurring chores, so there's no negotiation. Comes with 100+ chore templates covering everything from couples to familMar 1, 2026 2:32 AM

MyRobot, a Venture Capital Pitchhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46333852Wrap yourself in a personal robot called Ava (homage to Ex Machina).A perfect morning coffee is waiting as you wake up. The house robot brings it to you as you awake.Suppose you want to get breakfast at a restaurant. The car shows up. You get driven to the restaurant. As you get seated your order arrives. Ava knows that you like an omlette, lightly cooked, with ham and bacon. You like your homefries crisp. You like a small orange juice. It is all ready for you moments after you walk in the door because Ava told the restaurant what you want and when you will arrive.Ava also knows that you want to keep your weight at a certain number. She tracks your calorie intake and creates food proportions and choice to meet your calerie requirements, tuned to the day's activities based on likely calorie burn.Ava reads books to you through the embedded speaker in your ear, tuning your book choice to the day. Is the weather bad; then a nice story. Is your interest in comedy; then a newly released (LLMDec 20, 2025 5:29 AM
