Hi vibe coders!I want to share our new free tool we use, for all SaaS builders who deal with translation files and multilingual content:-> Intlayer Autofill.The Problem:If you're building a growing SaaS, you've probably hit this wall: - You're splitting content into reusable components. - You're updating translations manually every time something changes.And you're juggling multiple tools and locales just to keep everything in sync.It’s messy. It’s slow. And it doesn’
Hi HN, Since 2019, I’ve been working on a writing platform designed for creating complex documents (e.g., theses). I personally use it for everything as it also allows to classify documents in categories so you can organize them efficiently.As of a few months ago, the app is also available in the browser, and you can now invite coworkers to collaborate on a document in real time.The app is somewhat inspired by LyX. It offers an intuitive, modern editor, but users don’t need to know any LaTeX. Wh
Social media marketing is popular for brands to attract customers. Platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook give opportunities to them to get along with their audience directly. But there are big challenges:Managing many accounts on different platforms is tricky and takes a lot of time. Platforms can suspend accounts for breaking rules, and keeping user data private is a major worry.That’s why antidetect browsers are a must. These tools help marketers avoid account bans, manage multiple pr

Hi Everyone, I’m a solo dev who often got stuck on big, vague goals (“launch a project”, “write a thesis”). Most todo apps just gave me a checklist, but never helped me figure out how to start. So I built OwnPlan: - Enter any big goal - AI instantly breaks it down into actionable steps - Organize with lists, Today view, weekly reports - Minimalist UI, no clutter Built with Flutter, multi-model AI backend with intelligence select algrithom base on the task u enter(Gemini, DeepSeek, OpenAI), and l
Hi everyone!I am working on a tool that iteratively takes psuedocode and breaks it down into more and more detailed steps. Essentially at any point you can alter your app with plain text, then once you're satisfied generate full code for it. This system allows you to iterate on specific sections of your application, refine them with normal language, and make any changes you wish, while never writing actual code. Eventually though, the psuedcode that you've been creating is sufficient f

I just found myself trying to define configuration language for a tool that would then write the given configuration into a configuration file of whatever format I set. So I was configuring configuration to configure configuration... When that thought occurred to me, it made me stop, and think "this is ridiculous".I mean, the problem I want to solve is real. Configuring containerized applications is always annoying. Currently I either end up baking the configuration into the image, or
The world feels on the brink of another big war, has for years now. The 24 hours news cycle is depressing, it feels like there's a new disaster every day. Wars, assassinations, hungry, suffering or dead children, floods, forest fires, famine. Politics has descended into madness seemingly everywhere, the tiny glimmers of hope are few and far between. Nationalism, saber-rattling, glee for the "enemy"'s demise. Dehumanizing caricatures I've only known from world war 2 propa
Dropping ForestThe timer productivity app Forest announced the addition of a subscription plan to what is already a pay to use app. In a letter from their CEO, that spent way too much time praising AI, they announced they’d be adding a subscription plan to the app this year. They can’t even get their newest beta feature Focus Challenges off the ground without regular glitches, but they’re going to ask users to spend more money on an app we already paid to download in the first place. I picked Fo
A few days ago, I went to Disneyland. I had been invited to Anaheim to give a speech about my books, and my wife and I decided to use the opportunity to take our boys on an early summer visit to the supposed happiest place on earth.As long-time listeners of my podcast know, I spent the pandemic years, for reasons I still don’t entirely understand, binge-reading books about Disney (the man, the company, and the theme parks), so I knew, in some sense, what to expect. And yet, the experience still
My theory is GenAI will rapidly increase productivity and the amount that small dev teams can do in a short amount of time (think hobby projects that one day, might turn into something).<p>I've also seen people on HN analyze frequency of posting, optimal posting times, etc. I would love to see the raw number of Shown HN posts plotted over time. Even better if we could annotate release of various models.
I am making a virtual HDMI monitor using Viture Pro XR glasses and an SBC ( currently OrangePi 5 Plus because it has HDMI-in ).What it does is map the frames from the HDMI input onto a virtual display that is controlled by the IMU data from the glasses ( 3DOF only ). I've put AR in quotes in the title because many won't view those display glasses as true AR but by tracking the head movement it comes close.I am trying to build kind of a "low cost" version of a virtual screen t
I’m good at routines and habits, so my baseline productivity is solid, but I often struggle to break down larger, abstract goals into clear, actionable steps. For example, goals like "get a higher-paying job with more interesting coworkers" can feel overwhelming unless I outline specific tasks like researching the job market, learning relevant skills, or setting clear milestones.I’d like to get better at this planning skill, turning broad goals into manageable steps, and am looking for
I built the first Matlab Simulink copilot (for non-engineers matlab/simulink is like the boogeyman)I’m a 2nd-year aero-engineering student at Imperial College London, I enjoy problem solving (did BPhO and got gold and UKMT) I'm a full-stack dev (or atleast trying to be lol) who hacked together Bloxi, an AI copilot that sits on top of Simulink and turns plain-English prompts into working control-system models and can easily debug them in real time. I felt the pain myself this term, watc
