Ask HN: When will you be concerned on layoffs?

In recent weeks, I have noticed a lot of tech companies announcing layoffs due to AI. As this continues, when will you be concerned?Microsoft laying off 10% of their workforce, 15%, 20%, 30%? Google laying off 10%, 15%, 20%, or more?HN readers like to use the cope of "it's just pandemic over-hiring" — when do you think that explanation will no longer hold?When will you say: "Now it has nothing to do with Covid-era over-hiring; the industry has fundamentally changed."If t

Rethinking Shared Governance

These systems can shield leaders from accountability. The Trump administration’s funding freezes, Title VI enforcement actions and direct pressure on Harvard University and other elite institutions have forced a question that university leaders have long avoided: Who, exactly, is in charge?

Show HN: JDS – a Copilot skill suite for structuring AI coding behavior

A few months ago I stumbled on obra's superpowers repository https://github.com/obra/superpowers. I really liked the approach and idea that you enforce discipline for your agent through a skill-based workflow. Even though coding agents (copilot included) have become a lot better at natively handling complex tasks, they still wander off and lose track of things. I really liked how superpowers fixed this and how it enabled long-running sessions without the agent losing its

Show HN: Redhook's Revenge II

A favorite game of mine as a kid was an old DOS game called Redhook's Revenge released all the way back in 1993. It was an interactive naval board game where you roll dice, move ships, conquer ports Risk-style, and answer maritime trivia. My sister and I spent hours playing it until we'd basically memorized every question.About 10 years ago, I reverse engineered the game's packed binary asset format to inject new general knowledge trivia questions, being careful not to shift any m

Have LLMs made anyone's life substantially better?

I can't help but come to the conclusion that almost everyone's life has gotten worse as a result of AI.I'm a software engineer working for a huge company. We have access to AI tools, which is cool, and it saves me time in the sense that it is quicker to write code. Yet, despite writing code taking time, I never thought that it was a tedious usage of time. As a developer, the times that I got to actually sit down and start banging out code were some of the most fun times I've

Show HN: PandoCast: open-source Pandora player to solve an annoyance I had

I created PandoCast for Windows, for 2 reasons. 1) I was annoyed just enough at intermittent audio hiccups when casting Pandora.com to my soundbar through Chrome tab casting. 2) My professional career has been a marketer and I feel pigeon-holed in a vertical that while I enjoy, it's not what I want to be doing now. I have always been a fiddler, and learned coding and engineering concepts in parallel to my career. I'm looking for a home that values people who have walked different paths

Show HN: Event catalog from code in 2 commands

Hey HN, I&#x27;m Charlie.<p>I built Emit after going from producing events in an event driven environment to consuming data I didn&#x27;t create in an analytics role and guessing more often than I&#x27;d like to admit. The code is the only thing that actually tells you what events mean (e.g. a negative bill_amount on purchase_completed = refund), so Emit reads it and writes the catalog from it. Open source.

Show HN: Easy Locality Domain Lookup

A nice article about setting up personal locality domains was posted yesterday (https:&#x2F;&#x2F;fredchan.org&#x2F;blog&#x2F;locality-domains-guide&#x2F;). However, I and many other people found it challenging to look up their locality domain and associated contact information.I did my best to use some automation to grab all of the locality domains and contact info from associated SOA records and put it all in a more easily searchable website. Hope this helps anyone who was stuck like me!https:

Ask HN: Why do LLMs use em dashes so often?

Why is it that all of the LLMs by default use em dashes more than any other punctuation? Is it the versatility of em dashes? But even then how did LLMs decide that em dashes were the versatile punctuation marks. I have been reading aldaily for the last 11-12 years and I have not seen em dashes used that frequently. LLMs insert em dash in almost every long response.

Ask HN: How do you defend against supply chain attacks today?

Seems like software supply chain attacks have been increasing in speed, scope, and complexity of late. Especially in NPM and PyPi packages.<p>How are people defending against this increased threat? Relying on dependency scanners seems way too slow now. Automagically updating to the latest &amp; greatest is likely to include the latest &amp; greatest malware. Auditing every version of every dependency in use is going to be a costly affair.

Los transformistas en época de Pandemia, Covid-19.

Tras el cierre de los locales nocturnos, actores transformistas quedaron fuera de los escenarios. Sin la posibilidad de poder realizar sus espectáculos, parte de ellos se reinventó y buscó a su público a través de las redes sociales e internet. Transmisiones vía Instagram y rifas son algunas de las principales iniciativas que algunos de ellos han tomado para sortear la crisis del COVID-19. Durante mayo una "Teledragtón", organizada por un grupo de artistas de ese rubro, dejó entrever la necesida
