Re:Sites in ChatGPT on Friday October 02, 2026 @04:48PM (#49938436)
I was imagining the other day what other "apps" that frontier labs can get into. If we had "Claude Mail" or "ChatGPT for Workspaces" it would be very interesting. Email service created by Claude, then docs (they have it already?) then all the business apps layer (heck integrate your vibe coded apps onto these! build your own slack, CRM)

If models are commoditized and apps is where the grab is - I actually wouldn't mind a new email provider - GMail has not practically changed in the last 10 years I feel.

Shipping Dec 2027... I don't know about you, but at the rate of current pace, I don't know what to expect at the end of 2027.

The initial reaction is "why on earth would I give Facebook MORE of my data, no way" but as some commenters said, this would be a great tool to use to see if it can automate some of the tools that I have not been able to automate (e.g. Facebook most of all!)

Oh the verbosity and the cryptic words that it uses. The other day, all of a sudden it used an acronym "DoD". I had no idea what it was and made me feel dumb. It's "Definition of Done". I don't care how widely used this acronym is, you just can't throw it in there.

I've now installed quite a number of tools to combat this. Just in the last few days I've installed

- https://www.codewithbullet.com - https://maki.sh - https://github.com/rtk-ai/rtk

Has it helped? Somewhat.

Look, GLM, Kimi, Deepseek and Qwen should just join forces and come up with THE model that will beat the frontier lab models even just for the benchmaxxing perspective - all just to create hype and chaos to derail the trillion IPO conversations surrounding OpenAI and Anthropic.

Re:Bring Back Crappy Forums on Thursday July 02, 2026 @01:05AM (#48756762)
absolutely love forums! It's also a kind of a rite of passage for devs to create a forum if you are learning new language (back in the days) - an advanced version of "Create your first blog" type of thing?

A while back ago, I created HN Plus (hn[.]plus) (for some reason it gets blocked) - anyway, wanted to give people a way to create their own HN clone - still being used today and it was a very interesting exercise to replicate all the niche features of HN.

Cool!

I recently ported Doom on browser so that you can easily play multi-player (up to 4) completely free (you can host it yourself on Cloudflare)

Re:GLM 5.2 vs. Opus on Monday June 22, 2026 @04:34AM (#48627408)
I've signed up with Ollama to experiment with these open source models. For the past 3 months, it's just been experimenting, trying it out. GLM is the first model that I am using on a daily basis to do my coding work (as well as using Claude). It's good - I've been maxing out my Ollama usage limits everyday :)
Re:Ask HN: What are you working on? (May 2026) on Monday May 11, 2026 @01:21AM (#48091300)
Built my own backend for excalidraw frontend :)

https://drawx.ossy.dev

definitely worth it - have both ollama cloud, opencode and hermes running to test them all out, working great so far.

DrawX is Excalidraw with backend.

I love Excalidraw but I don't need Excalidraw+ I just need the backend where I can save and be able to create multiple canvases.

So that's what I built!

Re:I use excalidraw to manage my diagrams for my blog on Monday March 30, 2026 @04:20AM (#47571792)
I love excalidraw, but don't need the excalidraw+. But Excalidraw open source is the frontend only, which means I have to delete my drawings each time. So I built the backend so I can create many canvases.

Love Excalidraw. Didn't need Excalidraw+. Just needed a way to have multiple canvases. So built one. You can use it too.
