Hacker News

Former investigative reporter turned developer. I built a simple breaking-news monitor because tracking events across platforms is a mess now that Twitter’s unreliable.

Bluesky is the backbone (a fraction of twitter, but still lots of journalists and OSINT folks), plus RSS, Telegram, Reddit, YouTube and Mastodon. Everything is one chronological feed with no algorithm, clear source labels, and lightweight activity detection when a region spikes above baseline (frequency math, not LLMs).

But we do have a (hopefully non-obtrusive) AI-generated recent/post summary.

Been building for a while, figured I'd post in light of today's events. Can't promise it will survive or is good, any feedback appreciated.

Built with Next.js 15 + TypeScript + Tailwind on Vercel. Real coded + supervised vibe coded. Free, no login, signups, ect

I got tired of spending 5 minutes every morning writing standups, so I built this.

Paste your git commits or task list → AI generates a clean Yesterday / Today / Blockers report.

Free, no sign-up required (5 reports/day).

Would love feedback on the output quality and UX.

Hi HN!

I work at a software agency where I constantly have to deal with microservices and projects split across multiple repositories (e.g., Frontend, Backend API, Auth Service). Every morning, I found myself doing the same chore: opening multiple terminal tabs, navigating to different directories, and running `docker-compose up -d` or `npm run dev` one by one.

It was tedious, so I built *mdc (Multi-Docker-Compose)* to solve this exact problem.

*What it does:* `mdc` lets you define all your cross-repository commands in a single YAML file and orchestrates them with a single command: `mdc up`.

*Key features:* * *Parallel & Sequential Execution:* Boot up your entire stack concurrently, or sequentially if you have strict dependencies. * *Background Process Management:* It doesn't just run `docker-compose`. You can daemonize long-running foreground tasks like `npm run dev` (using `background: true` in the YAML) and easily monitor them with `mdc procs`. * *Clean UI:* Color-coded outputs and emojis to instantly see which project is failing or starting. * *Zero Dependencies:* Written in Go, distributed as a single binary. (This was actually my very first Go project!)

You can check it out here: https://github.com/tominaga-h/multi-docker-commander

I'd love to hear your feedback, thoughts on the architecture, or if you've faced similar local-dev nightmares. Happy to answer any questions!

Built an OSS toolkit to normalize mixed-script/mixed-language user text before LLM pipelines. Focus is production use: API mode, Docker deploy path, language-pack interface, and evaluation snapshots. Would appreciate feedback on data strategy, evaluation design, and integration patterns. https://github.com/SudhirGadhvi/open-vernacular-ai-kit
