Launch HN: Omnara (YC S25) – Run Claude Code and Codex from anywhere
Hey y’all, Kartik, Ishaan, and Christian from Omnara (https://www.omnara.com/) here. We’re building a web and mobile agentic IDE for Claude Code and Codex that lets you run and interact with coding agents from anywhere. Omnara lets you run Claude Code and Codex sessions on your own machine, and exposes those sessions through a web and […]
Shut Up: Comment Blocker
Huh? Comments are awful. Shut Up hides them by default, sparing your sanity and preventing you from getting sucked into a world of hurt. ”Comments Section”, a Chainsawsuit comic by Kris Straub For the sites where discussions can be more constructive – like GitHub, Dropbox, or Stack Overflow – you can show comments by default. […]
Gemini 3 Deep Think

Major European payment processor can’t send email to Google Workspace users
TL;DR: Viva.com, one of Europe’s largest payment processors, sends verification emails without a Message-ID header — a recommendation of RFC 5322 since 2008. Google Workspace rejects them outright. Their support team’s response to my detailed bug report: ”your account has a verified email, so there’s no problem.” A few days ago, I tried to create […]

Improving 15 LLMs at Coding in One Afternoon. Only the Harness Changed
In fact only the edit tool changed. That’s it. 0x0: The Wrong Question The conversation right now is almost entirely about which model is best at coding, GPT-5.3 or Opus. Gemini vs whatever dropped this week. This framing is increasingly misleading because it treats the model as the only variable that matters, when in reality […]
Rolling your own serverless OCR in 40 lines of code
A few months ago, I wanted to make my copy of Gelman’s Bayesian Data Analysis searchable for use in a statistics-focused agent. There are some pretty sophisticated OCR tools out there but they tend to have usage limits or get expensive when you’re processing thousands of pages. DeepSeek recently released an open OCR model that […]
The ”Crown of Nobles” Noble Gas Tube Display
In my day job I work with ion thrusters for spacecraft, which are essentially electric-powered rockets that fling Xenon gas out at super high speeds to provide thrust and allow satellites to change their orbit. Xenon is a rare element way up on the periodic table, and it’s great for in-space propulsion because it’s fairly […]
