OpenCLI - https://github.com/bcdxn/opencli A document specification for defining command line interfaces. It's really just a fun side project to get more familiar with Go. The goal is to be able to generate boilerplate code in a few languages/frameworks and to generate documentation in a couple formats.

#283My middle school aged kids was able to escape with free proxy, vpn, tor etc in the past which forced me to figure out a way to lock it down totally when it's absolutely needed.

#285A 3D game to help students in grades 5-8 learn Arithmentic, Fractions, Geometry, and Algebra.
50% or more of middle school students experience math anxiety, and it's no wonder that so many people grow up believing, "I'm not a math person." Math can be incredibly fun and beautiful if approached and experienced the right way. Mathbreakers is a vibrant, interactive world where all game mechanics are built on intrinsic mathematical properties, so simply by playing the game, a foundation of understanding of those concepts is built.
We're doing early prototype testing now with a planned launch in September 2025. The game engine is PlayCanvas (engine-only) and the platform is WebGL (Mac/PC/ChromeOS).

#286The idea is simple: instead of blasting you with every keyword mention like F5bot, Replyhub filters for posts where people show real buying intent. These are posts where they ask for recommendations, compare products, or look for solutions.
It also suggests context-aware replies and helps collect leads from people who show real interest.
If you want to reach niche communities where people are actively discussing products, it might be useful.
Would love to hear feedback or questions from folks here.

#287It's not exactly version 2.0, it's built entirely from scratch and instead of only hacker news, it can also be used for similar forum sites like Lobste.rs, Tildes, Lemmy etc. In fact, it's built in a way such that more website support can be easily added on the fly.
I had restarted this 3 times in the last 2 years. But the current code is finally coming together to be released to the public.
Currently, I already have the reader part working. So one can read posts, comments, expand collapse comments, read articles etc. I don't have the writer part working yet (voting, favoriting, commenting). I am debating whether I should just release the reader part first and then continue working on the writer part and release it as part of update. Thoughts?

#288rather than manually write prompts for llms (which is like hand coding byte code for cpus), declare a structure and instructions and let the system do prompt writing for you.
it also exposes an optimizer which can do sophisticated prompt learning for tasks.

#289I'm currently beating around the bush on building a GitHub clone minus react, copilot, etc. There's no reason I should have my browser tabs crash when I view a pull request involving more than 100 files. The page should already have been generated on the server before I requested it. The information is available. All that remains are excuses and wasted CPU cycles.
