Ask HN: Should I start a software foundation (goal: help emergency services)?

I've been on a business trip this week, and sitting on the plane, I was randomly browsing NYT and read this article which really REALLY pissed me off: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/12/14/us/fire-department-software-private-equity.html?unlocked_article_code=1.8k8.yzeR.NwSK3PTQeXQj&smid=nytcore-android-shareTLDR: Private equity is buying up all these software vendors, and preying upon vulnerable fire departments; one rural department with a total budget o

Ask HN: Resources to get better at outbound sales?

Hi!I run a small custom software company in Michigan.I want to get better at outbound sales beyond just cold emailing or messaging people through LinkedIn.We’re about to start publishing case studies and doing some outreach, so I want to take some time to study outbound sales and improve my skills.Any recommended courses, books, or frameworks for B2B outbound sales, consultative selling, or building effective outreach pipelines?Thanks!

Ask HN: My mother was scammed out of all her savings. What should I do?

Today is the worst day of my life. We live in a country near Cambodia, and as you know, it is kind of a dream land for scammers. Today, it happened to my family.My mother received a call from a scammer. They told her she needed to process some tax issue and prove that her bank account had enough money. In just a few minutes, they tricked her and manipulated her into entering banking OTP codes. All of her savings are now gone.What makes this more dramatic is that last year I architected and helpe

Show HN: Vigil – A clean build watcher for Zig (inspired by Bacon for Rust)

I have been exploring Zig and wanted a project that let me practice concepts from Data Oriented Design, TigerStyle (links in the readme for context on those) and simplified approaches to manual memory management that have intrigued me the last couple of years. I wanted something wildly different to Clojure (my beloved daily driver) and Zig has been a fantastic tool to explore these concepts. I'm a big fan of Bacon (check it out if you use Rust) and wanted to have a similar tool for my Zig p

Ask HN: What Self-Hosted Observability Tools do You Use?

I’ve been doing a bunch of my own testing and evals, but I was wondering what other people use and rely upon, and thought it wouldn’t hurt to ask:- is there a simple, cross-scenario tool that you can use for VM/container/app metrics that isn’t a cobbled together wrapper around Grafana?I find myself needing CPU/RAM/IO counters from VMs, similar from LXC/Docker, and NewRelic-like APM counters and traces from my apps.I have been playing with various OpenTelemetry tools, and

Firefox restart and tabs = Google says I'm a robot

Yesterday I let Firefox update. After it restarted and opened my tabs, some of which were on Google, Google decided I was a robot and made me go through captchas. If Google wants people off their platform, this is a great start toward that goal!

Show HN: LLMKit – Compare LLMs side-by-side with real-time streaming

Hi HN!I built LLMKit after getting frustrated with choosing the right LLM for different projects. Instead of guessing or relying on benchmarks that don't match real use cases, I wanted to see actual performance with my own prompts.What it does: • Compare up to 5 models simultaneously (GPT-4, Claude, Gemini, etc.) • Real-time streaming comparison - watch models race to respond • Custom scoring weights based on your priorities (speed vs cost vs quality) • System prompt support for production-

AI Applications that need engineering and expertise?

I'm seeing a lot of AI projects being picked up and run by people without any AI or CS knowledge, or even any technical background. They "stick it into the LLM and it works"...Maybe these will crash and burn, but can folks identify the characteristics of an AI project that mean that it needs an expert running it and some smart engineers doing it?

Show HN: Logchef – Open-source schema-agnostic log viewer for ClickHouse

Hey HN, I'm Karan. I built Logchef because we moved our log workloads to ClickHouse at Zerodha and found the ecosystem lacking for actual log exploration.Tools like Metabase and Grafana are great for dashboards, but log exploration is a different workflow.The Grafana ClickHouse plugin requires manual column configuration for logs, has no field sidebar, and its ad-hoc filters are slow on large tables. Grafana's RBAC is Enterprise-only, and even then it's datasource-level and not at

Show HN: Zynk, Cross-platform, private file transfer that works

Merry Christmas! Your file transfer gift from Santa is here.I built Zynk because I was tired of file transfer being a "solved problem" that still sucked.AirDrop? kinda Apple-only. Cloud drives? Size limits? Waiting for uploads? WeTransfer? caps caps caps. Browser uploads? No folders supported? One network hiccup and you start over.What Zynk does: Transfers files between any devices/OS on your local network, also without Internet connectivity, P2P + E2EE Transfers files bet

New Moroxico 021: Doors, Part Three

I depart for India in just a few days, so it only seemed fitting that I make this reel about Art of Old India (AOI Home) before heading out! 🤗 Even though neither “India” or “Africa” made it into my super clever mash up of “Morocco” and “Mexico,” 😂 anyone who visits the home I call New Moroxico will tell you that the Indian and African influences are undeniable, if not a bit heavy handed.
