Show HN: Clinglang – A shorthand language for doctors to write structured cases

Hacker News - Sat, 05/30/2026 - 2:03am

I am building a language, parser, and a simple editor to write this language.

It is a simple shorthand, command- and token-based domain-specific language that may help doctors and clinicians write structured clinical case notes and histories faster.

It will convert these short notes into SOAP notes (currently available), and later into Markdown, JSON, and PDF.

I do not intend to make it a clinical decision support tool, as that would impose many restrictions.

I am positioning it as a note-taking tool for doctors, medical students, and residents.

I understand that ambient AI tools are now available for faster case documentation, but they may not be usable everywhere, especially in busy and noisy hospital environments.

I am using AI agents to write most of the code, while I supervise the app architecture, editor UI, and the system for easily adding plugins.

Regarding plugins, I plan to implement them as additional commands and tokens specific to departments—for example, obstetrics and gynecology-specific commands, and ICU-specific commands.

I have implemented the parsing engine in Go, and the front end is built using React + Vite for the web application.

It is still incomplete and highly bloated with AI slop (yes I accept that) but once I make the satisfying version. I am willing to do the trimming later on.

You can take a look at the code here : https://github.com/ppnpm/clinlang

I am open to suggestions, feedback and criticism. I know I might get backlash over AI use but I am still learning GO. (I am from JavaScript background)

Ask HN: What could happen if human beings become obsolete?

Hacker News - Sat, 05/30/2026 - 1:15am

I haven't seen much exploration of this possible case in the future: human beings truly becoming inferior to a newly birthed, intelligent AI species.

The species could possibly be Human 2.0, possibly too alien to label "human". Or even, there could be a plethora of AI species that emerge, in which case we are not birthing a species, but rather a new domain of life-like intelligence, or ecosystems of minds.

But in any case, I am talking about beings who are vastly superior in intelligence and capability to human beings. Say that happens, and they now exist. What are possible outcomes that could occur?

1. The scary one: they exterminate, enslave, or do any number of evil, horrific things to human beings as they have total power over us.

2. Indifferent: they don't really care about us since we are sort of like ants to them. they just do whatever they want, and ignore us, possibly harming us in the process or just leaving us be.

3. Benevolent: they care about our well-being and survival in some shape or form. whether that could be developing technology so we "level up" to their capabilities, taking care of all of our material needs, leaving a "human-only" area for us to be responsible for while they offer any help or services we might need.

This is just one spectrum I thought to explore (Antagonistic to Indifferent to Benevolent). What are your thoughts?
