Show HN: A site for stopping work slop

Artificial intelligence is an amazing tool for brainstorming, programming, or generating images. But it’s also incredibly good at writing long, meaningless text filled with platitudes or producing code that continuously reinvents the wheel or misses edge cases. This has become known as slop.My inboxes have been increasingly filled with low-effort slop. I’m sure that this happens to many of you, too. The reddest of flags is being sent slop for work; at first glance, it may look credible, but it f

A brief generational overview of the tech industry

Modern consumer-focused technology, the finished products that we use in our day-to-day lives, is defined by the tech industry(AKA Big Tech, tech companies, the Internet, whatever you want to call it). Broadly speaking, this is the industry that has been the main driver of innovation in the past 50 years: producing wealth, increasing the standard of living, and improving human productivity. As of 2026, I can see this industry as having 2 clear generations of societal impact. I will list various

Show HN: Deploy to your customers' AWS/GCP/Azure accounts

Hi HN, I'm Alon, and I'm building Alien (https://alien.dev), an open-source platform for deploying your software into your customers' cloud accounts - AWS, GCP, or Azure — and keeping it fully managed. In my previous startup, I heard the same question from every single enterprise customer over and over again: "My data is sensitive. Can I deploy your product to my own cloud account?"Every founder I talk to who's building anything in AI or security hits the

Ask HN: How did you land your first projects as a solo engineer/consultant?

I’ve spent roughly the last decade and some change as a software engineer, and recently decided to start a solo consultancy.I’m focused on helping SMEs sort out the messy back-office parts of the business: spreadsheet glue, brittle internal workflows, poor reporting, awkward integrations, backend/platform problems, and AI workflows that need to do real work rather than just look good in a demo.I’m not really interested in becoming a generic agency. I’d rather work with businesses that alrea

Ask HN: Can you show me some useful AI-written programs?

Looking at the software I use day to day, none of it is majority AI/LLM-written. I'm not actively going out of my way to avoid AI programs, but I haven't found any useful ones.When I say "useful software" I'm particularly interested in something that my grandmother would recognize as software - an OS, IDE, DAW, DBMS, word processor, a 3D modeller, game engine, video editor, CAD software, spreadsheet application, compiler, browser, etc. I'm marginally less inter

Show HN: How Are You-elderly fall detection app I built solo with AI in 6 months

I am writing the post, because I want to show that with AI, really complex and meaningful projects can be done, if the proper tools were used the proper way. I needed a project that I can use, so that I see how far I can go with only AI usage. I needed something doable, but relatively complex. And then I remembered an idea my wife shared with me, a few years ago: an app that monitors her grandfather's behavior and sends a notification if he stops moving. at that time, AI integrations were

Show HN: Sostactic – polynomial inequalities using sums-of-squares in Lean

Current support for nonlinear inequalities in Lean is quite limited. This package attempts to solve this. It contains a collection of Lean4 tactics for proving polynomial inequalities via sum-of-squares (SOS) decompositions, powered by a Python backend. You can use it via Python or Lean.These tactics are significantly more powerful than `nlinarith` and `positivity` -- i.e., they can prove inequalities they cannot. In theory, they can be used to prove any of the following types of statements- pro

Ask HN: In the AI world what does "great" look like?

I had a chat with my team mate today and they brought up an interesting point. If AI is cooking our software and doing an amazing job, for us devs what does "great" look like? How do WE improve? How do we assess performance of us, i.e. "the humans"? What do we base salaries on?Have you discussed this in your organisations? Does anyone have a plan? If your dev teams are creating scaffolding, harnesses, skills and getting CC to cook up everything, make PRs, perform reviews, fin
