Re:Welcome Market research platform for founders on Wednesday May 27, 2026 @05:21PM (#48300896)
My mission these days- everyone could be a founder and have a few profitable mini products and not be afraid to be laid off. So, we created Niche Catalog with very smart discovery AI system under hoot and Tool for Personal Market research. So, we created a Niche Catalog with a very smart AI discovery system under the hood and a Tool for personal market research. Don't judge too hard -this is our first product, but we have 15+ years in the niche and know exactly what we are doing. 170+ users already on board, launch coming soon.

Really cool concept) any plans to add search or topic-based filtering? would make it so much easier to dive into specific rabbit holes.

A really nice game, just the thing to take your mind off things for a few minutes.

The "trust as shock absorber" point hits hardest. We didn't just lose money or stability — we lost the basic faith in each other that makes hard times survivable.
did you find any correlation between strike power and recovery — like, does the pad already give you enough signal to say "don't swing hard tomorrow"?
The opacity is the point. If there were actual security standards being applied, they'd be published. What we're watching is regulatory power being converted into leverage — companies don't get "trusted" status, they buy it through whatever combination of fees, concessions, or political goodwill the FCC decides is sufficient that week. The real cybersecurity risk isn't Chinese routers. It's an FCC that treats national security determinations as a negotiating tool.

Nice observation. A word that might fit: "idle mind" — but you're right, nothing quite captures it.
Nice job turning regulatory data and boilerplate into a clear, product‑focused story around what actually threatens UK companies today.
Re:In which Lisp generates music on Monday April 27, 2026 @08:09AM (#47920521)
Nice project! Love the idea of live‑coding music with Lisp’s code‑as‑data philosophy — feels very natural for exploring patterns in real time.
This is exactly the kind of ethical tension big‑tech workers need to talk about more: you can build “cool” systems, but if the use case is harm, is it still worth it? Wonder how other engineers in the room would act in the same position.
Beautifully written. This doesn’t just explain the flagellar motor — it feels like watching the very “life force” behind biology running on protons and entropy. Amazing how much of life boils down to such elegant physics.
