In your view, which are couple different companies that aren’t very big (not FAANG level yet), but you think will become quite successful? Which of them are mission driven and you’d be sad if they later become “corrupted”?
Isn’t “what” the easy part? I thought the leadership is more about why they are doing what they are doing and why is that important/not important. Something which LLMs are not great at today, but aren’t terrible and can make some good guesses at times.

I have been trying to run Qwen Coder models (8B at 4bit) on my M3 Pro 18GB behind Ollama and connecting codex CLI to it. The tool usage seems practically zero, like it returns the tool call in text JSON and codex CLI doesn’t run the tool (just displays the tool call in text). Has anyone succeeded in doing something like this? What am I missing?
What would a good coding model to run on an M3 Pro (18GB) to get Codex like workflow and quality? Essentially, I am running out quick when using Codex-High on VSCode on the $20 ChatGPT plan and looking for cheaper / free alternatives (even if a little slower, but same quality). Any pointers?

Teams in Slack often end up pasting long @mention chains, and someone gets missed (or the wrong person gets pinged). It’s worse for rotating groups like on-call, releases, incident response.We built Alias Bot: each channel can define aliases like `!oncall` / `!reviewers`. When someone uses an alias, the bot replies with the expanded mentions and lists exactly who was notified (so there are no...
I downloaded the app but it keeps crashing on open
I agree. The articles misses some really good ones, - prepone, max-to-max (ज़्यादा से ज़्यादा), scanner (for payment QR-codes)
Is this not available in India? Would love to try it.

We built a free tool that compares how your site appears to humans vs how LLMs really see it.You’ll see how well your content is structured, what LLMs can extract, and where you’re missing visibility in AI search.You can try it here - https://aipageready.com/humans-vs-llms
Does it work? I get thrown to homepage without anything after uploading screenshots and clicking the CTA. Bug? Or intentional?
Some things I’m curious to hear from HN:
(1) Are you optimizing your content for LLMs yet?
(2) What do you think AI traffic will look like 6–12 months from now?
(3) What kinds of AI visibility issues have you run into?
Happy to answer anything about how we built the tool or what’s under the hood too.

Hi HN,We just launched [AI Page Ready](https://aipageready.com) — a tool to check if your web pages are discoverable and understandable by AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity.It runs 40+ checks across six areas: Discoverability & Crawlability, Structured Data & Semantics, Content Quality, Answer-Ready Formatting, Accessibility & Rendering, and Deep AI LLM-specific...
Experts will be in denial of LLMs for a long time, while the non-experts will swiftly use it to bridge their own knowledge gap. This is the use case for LLMs, maybe more so than 100% correctness.
I don’t like watching videos (or rather can’t watch at night, but can read). To date I haven’t found an AI that can produce a good article from a video. No, not just transcribe the video but actually produce a quality article with images and stuff from the video. Like a human who is instructed as “watch this video and produce a very high quality article that talks about the things talked about in the video”.
Has anyone has any luck with this?
It would be awesome if I can give this link to AI that will produce a PDF, each video being a chapter in the PDF.
Is there any code assistant that can parse entire big codebases and help me implement a “story”?
YES! If you’re actually in India, you will know how useful Twitter has been with this. People are amplifying tweets about other people’s needs and other folks are sharing verified leads. All of this without any incentive to do so. Where the government is daily failing, citizens are rising to the occasion.
Is there a technical way that would prevent Mighty to read my passwords (if it wanted to)? Or do I have to trust Mighty won’t do that?
The faker game sounds fun! Page would be much easier to read if there were videos of the games.
Any plans of launching for Teams? I guess bigger companies (who were already on outlook) have heavily adopted Teams (and I believe these games might be something that HR teams at bigger companies might be interested in).
Also by definition there won’t be. Because two apps can capture 60% market share, there’s still 40% to be captured. Free markets would incentivise people to come up with at least 2 other players, no?
The rule being referred to, I believe, is that RBI doesn’t want any single payment app to have more than 30% market share. I believe, that’s a good thing and good to see it being thought out much earlier in the lifecycle of UPI. When it comes to people’s money, it’s in the interest of the country not to have monopolies.
That’s interesting. Could you expand a bit more? How do interviews happen in Europe?
I interviewed with booking.com in Amsterdam a couple years ago and it was the same thing — same questions testing prep.
Unfortunately, interviews, as they are currently, are more an indicator of preparation rather than job performance. It’s a game; you gotta play it.
