• AMA: I'm Eric Ries (The Lean Startup) & Author of New Bestseller Incorruptible

  «Please shut up and take my money». Jokes aside - can’t wait. Your book The Lean Startup helped me so much. I read it tens of times. It’s one of the reason I got great traction with mine startup https://playcode.io - AI App Builder on our custom cloud. Thank you Eric. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Ask HN: What are tools you have made for yourself since the advent of AI

  I built a complete clone if fly.io infrastructure: VMs, networks, etc. So I have my Vercel on bare metal machines to maintain full-stack apps on https://playcode.io. It took more than a year. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• How's Linear so fast? A technical breakdown

  I completely rebuilt this sync engine + orm with relations, lazy loading etc, using Vue + Pinia in https://playcode.io. Google Linear’s videos, they explained in detail their architecture. Yes, I spent a few months. But it worth it. Every new field, model I need to add, it is so straightforward. I do love frameworks and foundations. They make live easier later by a lot. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• Zerostack – A Unix-inspired coding agent written in pure Rust

  Don’t get me wrong, but 7K LoCs means it is still an early attempt to make a coding agent. It starts easy “ah it can edit and read files!”, but it requires a lot of extra effort to make properly for many edge cases, especially caching, price optimizations, etc. I’ve been implementing custom coding agent in https://playcode.io for 3 years already. Far beyond of 7K LoCs. So when you compare to “shitty slow” Claude... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• I Am Building a Cloud

  - k8s is insane peace of software. A right tool for a big problem. Not for your toys. Yes, it is crazy difficult to setup and manage. Then what? - cloud has bad and slow disk. BS. They have perfectly fast NVME. Something else? That’s it. Why I am so confident? I used to setup and manage kubernetes for 2 years. I have some experience. Do I use it more? Nope. Not a right tool for me. Ansible with some custom Linux... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Show HN: I made a 3D pose maker for artists

  A permanent Clip Studio Paint forever license with quality pen input devices can be a good option. Blender also offers free rigged 3D base models that offer similar functionality too. Render a png of the 3D pose in 4k, and have fun in free Krita. Ymmv with pen-pressure sensitivity features, as some devices are better than others. =3 https://studio.blender.org/characters/ https://krita.org/en/. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Show HN: WebPtoPNG – I built a WebP to PNG tool, everything runs in the browser

  > I built WebPtoPNG after getting frustrated with converters that throttle uploads or phone data Why would you want to do it in a browser anyway? Just run it local. There are many open source image editors and converters to choose from. ImageMagick is one: https://imagemagick.org/ GIMP is another: https://www.gimp.org/ Krita is another: https://krita.org/en/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Blender on iPad Is Finally Happening

  We found running a recent Intel pen tablet is nice for some applications like the full blender plugin ecosystem support, commercial and free offerings. Some treasure: https://github.com/wonderunit/storyboarder/releases https://krita.org/en/ Avoid in commercial use-case: https://github.com/Acly/krita-ai-diffusion Seems ridiculous, but the 2nd paid seat you get works well for portable non-intensive tasks:... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Ask HN: Which "open-source alternatives" have succeeded?

  Fairly well known on HN by now but Krita is also excellent and simple image editor and painting app like Photoshop was 20 years ago https://krita.org/en/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Cancel Adobe if you are a creative under NDA with your clients

  Well, there is Serif's suite: https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/designer/ (There's also a Photo and page layout app) or the open-source stuff: - https://krita.org/en/ - https://inkscape.org/ - https://www.scribus.net/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
