I gamified my GitHub streak into a garden I’d lose my commit streak on busy days, and GitHub’s contribution graph never really cared. So I built Commit Garden: a tiny garden that depends on whether you pushed code today. What it does Connect GitHub once. Every day you push, your current plant grows one stage. After six days in a row it’s fully grown and moves into your garden, and a new one starts. Skip a whole day and the plant you’re growing withers (the ones already in your garden stay...

Every conversational analytics demo follows the same script. Someone connects a model to a clean warehouse schema, types "show me revenue by region last quarter," and gets a correct chart in four seconds. The room nods. Then somebody says the sentence that has launched a thousand doomed pilots: "Now let's roll it out to the whole company." I have spent the last few years doing exactly that rollout — building governed conversational analytics on Looker and its semantic layer, most recently exp...

Candidate search is a retrieval product before it is an LLM feature. Pick the path that matches your freshness, control, and citation needs; combine durable vector context with live web context when recruiters need both. Short answer: define the answer a recruiter must see, turn it into a retrieval contract, then ship a release that checks tenant filters, source citations, freshness, and bounded latency. A vector index is the dependable memory. Web search is the live window. Neither should si...

Voice AI in 2026 – A Developer‑Centric Comparison Voice has become the new UI. From conversational agents to audiobooks, the demand for high‑quality, expressive text‑to‑speech (TTS) is exploding. By 2026 the ecosystem has narrowed to a handful of mature platforms, each with its own strengths and quirks. If you’re building a voice‑first product, you need a quick way to compare them on latency, cost, voice diversity, and developer experience. Below is a practical, code‑heavy guide that walk...

Switching between saved views on a board in my tracker costs zero Firestore reads. The board's active tickets are loaded once and kept live, and every filter, sort, group-by and swimlane is a pure function run over them in the browser. The constraint that forced it: Firestore cannot OR across fields, and every combination of filters you want to query needs its own composite index. A tracker with user-defined views over custom fields would need thousands of them. I'm Panth, and I lead the s...

Were concerns about its removal real, or has its absence moderated content to be higher quality? Were there any unexpected consequences? Is anyone willing to admit that their hope for its removal, or fear of its removal was misplaced? Is lobsters better or worse without it?

Hi HN, I'm Anish. I built Mnemolith because the AI coding tools I use (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) either forget my project between sessions, or remember things that quietly stopped being true. Tell the agent "we use Postgres", migrate to MySQL two weeks later, and it keeps building on the old fact. How it works: - It's an MCP server, so Claude Code, Cursor and Codex share one memory per project (keyed by the git repo). - When the agent saves a memory, it can link it to the files it depends on. ...

I posted here about the then-upcoming PHP RCEs related to CVE-2026-109618 & CVE-2026-109619. I appreciate this has had considerable knock-on effects with the schedule for co-ordinated disclosure, and created additional workload. I am truly sorry. I take full responsibility for my actions. It was not remotely my intention to cause any of the subsequent side effects. At the time of posting, I didn't know about any embargo. My contact had told me there was no embargo, and her contact had told her t...
