I have been interested in this topic for a while now, and have run different scenarios. What is everyone's thought on Chinese Yuan or Euro as the reserve currency?

Hi HN,I’m building MyEverly, an AI thought companion designed for people who want to think more clearly rather than simulate a relationship.The core idea is simple: many AI companions optimize for emotional dependency, persona bonding, or long-term memory accumulation. I wanted to explore the opposite direction.MyEverly is built around three constraints:1. *Privacy first by default* - No...

Show HN: TrafficScout – Discover high-intent Reddit threads with AI agents

https://www.trafficscout.app/

I’ve used Reddit as a customer acquisition channel for years. The challenge was always the same: finding high-intent threads every day and writing replies that were useful, compliant with subreddit rules, and didn’t trigger account issues.Doing it manually worked well, but it didn’t scale and introduced risk when rushed.So I built TrafficScout, a small tool that monitors Reddit in real time,...

This is the real cause. At the enterprise level, trust outweighs cost. My company hires agencies and consultants who provide the same advice as our internal team; this is not to imply that our internal team is incorrect; rather, there is credibility that if something goes wrong, the decision consequences can be shifted, and there is a reason why companies continue to hire the same four consulting firms. It's trust, whether it's real or perceived.
Re:The Oxford word of the year 2025 is "rage bait" on Monday December 01, 2025 @04:10PM (#46113265)
Curious if there are existing ways for social media sites to temper down rage baits and troll behaviors. Has anyone seen any method that works?
Re:More of Silicon Valley is building on free Chinese AI on Monday December 01, 2025 @04:09PM (#46113255)
This quote says it all "AI startups are seeing record valuations, but many are building on a foundation of cheap, free-to-download Chinese AI models."

Cheap and free to download. Most developers would rather spend weeks rebuild something for themselves than pay $20 a month for a tool.

Ask HN: Does cross-posting to Medium still help, or does it just dilute SEO now?

I’m building a small tool that syncs WordPress posts to Medium using canonical URLs to preserve SEO. Before I go further, I’d love perspectives from people who actively publish:• Is Medium still worth distributing to in 2025? • Have canonical links actually protected your SEO in practice? • Do you cross-post manually, with scripts, or not at all?I’m trying to avoid building something people...

Show HN: PublishRelay – Sync WordPress posts to Medium with canonical links

It sets the canonical URL back to the original WordPress post and preserves basic formatting like headings,...

I took a look at your project, and I must say, your landing page template is impressive! Did you create it using v0? I experimented with it for a while, and after submitting my idea, a pop-up appeared. Was there supposed to be something that happened after I clicked continue? By the way, are you building this just for fun, or do you see potential for idea validation, especially if you integrate some machine learning?

With over 10,000 users and growing, Jobsolv's AI-powered job search platform has gained traction in the B2C space, but we're facing the common challenge of monetizing at scale. Is shifting to a B2B model the key to unlocking sustainable revenue? As we weigh the options, we're exploring how partnering with career centers, bootcamps, and HR departments might be the more profitable path forward. What’s your take on the B2B vs. B2C debate?
