Show HN: I parsed 10 years of Japanese corporate filings into an API
by dahaleonkar | 2026-03-02 15:44:22+00:00
Hi HN,

Japan is the world's 4th largest stock market, but its financial data is stuck in the 90s. Corporate filings go through EDINET — a government system that stores everything as XBRL in Japanese, with 3 different accounting standards (JP-GAAP,IFRS, US-GAAP), company-specific taxonomies, and no usable API.

I've been working with Japanese XBRL filings for 2 years. I built a parser that normalizes all of it into structured JSON. Axiora now covers 4,125 listed companies with ~10 years of history and 52 financial fields per company-year.

Built for developers:

· REST API with full OpenAPI spec — https://axiora.dev/docs
· Python SDK: pip install axiora
· LangChain integration: pip install langchain-axiora (20 tools)
· MCP server for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, etc.
· llms.txt at axiora.dev/llms.txt

Try it now, no signup: https://axiora.dev/terminal

Roadmap: TDNet integration (real-time timely disclosures from JPX) and stock prices are next. Data licenses are expensive and I'm bootstrapping this solo, so those will come as paid tiers.

Tech: Python/FastAPI on Cloud Run, Supabase (Postgres), lxml for XBRL parsing.

Free tier: 10,000 req/day. I'd love feedback on the API design or what data would be most useful.

My last job had a desktop CNC called Volterra I think. It would squeeze out conductive ink, bake it, drill holes, and lay down and reflow solder paste.

It was expensive and performed terribly.

I think there really isn't any good way to improve on breadboards. Breadboards, in fact, are the improvement. They're called breadboards because we used to literally drill pieces of wood and do wire-wrap construction on the other side.

Breadboards are good enough for the kind of prototyping they're for. Spring loaded contacts are about the best you can get for removable parts. The signal integrity isn't that bad at modest speeds.

In today's world, the next step up from a breadboard is custom PCBs. You can have a set of five shipped from China for the same price as a set of breadboards. There's no real need or reason for anything in between so long as PCB manufacturing is so disgustingly cheap and fast.

How are you managing multiplayer and permissions? I see in the docs that you can add multiple users and that queries are filtered by the requesting user such that the user only sees what they have access to. The docs aren't particularly clear on how this is being accomplished.

Does each user do their own auth and the ingest runs for each user using stored user creds, perhaps deduplicating the data in the index, but storing permissions metadata for query time filtering?

Or is there a single "team" level integration credential that indexes everything in the workspace and separately builds a permissions model based on the ACLs from the source system API?

It's not an incorrect perspective, but I'm a little disappointed by Mike Masnick seemingly endorsing the wink and nod agreement that functionally implements what would otherwise be a facially unlawful warrentless search campaign by virtue of monopoly providers "voluntarily" acting for the government against their own interests and those of their customers.

The only thing that protects the status quo is that the 4a jurisprudence ignores the most of the coercive power of the federal government and its agents. A better position to take is is that the lawfulness of _all_ this tech company scanning has already been destroyed by this lawsuit and not just if it wins: The lawsuit is a demonstration of the consequences for not "voluntarily" scanning. It helps show that the prior scanning wasn't voluntary at all.

> They're basically making fun of people for trying to connect.

I had the same thought. The clueless people turning into their parents are charming and genuine. The life coach guy is kind of a dick.

Reminds me of Apple's "I'm a PC, And I'm a Mac" ads from Apple. I always understood the point they were trying to make, but PC character was so much more likable than the Mac.

I agree with you but the main thing g here, IMO, is the friction with all the alternatives you mention in getting something working.

For example, I've never heard of Automator. I'm familiar with Zapier, I'll have to evaluate the two situations, then I'll find out that might need to find an alternative that runs on Linux and then I'll have to check if....

These are all simple steps but they all use a non-trivial amount of time for the problem their solving

The other thing is the

That's how it actually works in some places (https://www.carwow.co.uk/blog/average-speed-cameras-how-do-t...). You don't need AI because we already know that distance = speed * time. We can calculate to a high degree of certainty - with high school math - that you had to have 1. been speeding or 2. bent space time if you cover the distance between them in too short of time.

Fascism is just a nationalism authoritarianism that is very hierarchical and believe in an "interior enemy" (for MAGA it's the deep state) that is the root cause of all their country isseus, and once it's purged the country can take its rightfull place at the top, and you with it.

I agree that US is not fascist yet, the hierarchy isn't set, and the economy isn't close to an extractive autarky, but philosophically, it's close, don't you think? I mean, ranting against traitors all the time is to me a very, very big point in favor of this being fascism.

I think this is behavior that should be encouraged online. Staying quiet and letting the experts talk to increase the signal to noise ratio is a GOOD thing. OP has hands on experience with something that is at least for now quite niche.

I used to only really speak about node.js topics because that was what I had real fighting experience with, at a scale beyond what most webdevs had ever seen. Those were also my most upvoted posts by far.

how does this happen? did greenepeace just run a bad trial? or lose all public trust?

> Automator (app on a mac that's existed for over a decade)

Two decades! It will be 20 this April.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automator_(macOS)

Though technically it’s deprecated in favour of the clusterfuck of bugs and limitations that is Shortcuts.

But you’re right, OpenClaw seems to be another fad being used mostly by “influencers” and “thought leaders” to show how awesome and productive they are at… Writing blog posts about being productive. It’s the LinkedInification of the web. What matters is the signal that you use the tool, not that it does something truly useful.

It took me a while to realise that you were responding to the article, not a comment here.

You're right in correcting the article, but I'd like to add that for probably around a decade, Erlang had 'sender punishment', which is what 'IsTom' who replied to you is probably talking about.

Ulf Wiger referred to sender_punishment as "a form of backpressure" (Erlang-questions mailing list, January 2011). 'sender punishment' was removed around 2018, in ad72a944c/OTP14667. I haven't read the whole discussion carefully, but it seems to be roughly "it wasn't clear that sender punishment solved more problems than it caused, and now that most machines are multi-core, that balance is tipped even more in favour of not having 'sender punishment'".

This isn't a new thing. Ancient stories like the Iliad or the Odyssey are discreetly historical records of a particular region mixed in with mythological foundations of a particular culture, but framed as the stories of Achilles ("Sing, O goddess, the anger of Achilles son of Peleus, that brought countless ills upon the Achaeans.") and Odysseus ("Speak, memory, of the cunning hero, the wanderer, blown off course time and again after he plundered Troy's sacred heights."). Likewise, ancient fables and parables are moral lessons couched in terms of stories with protagonists whose actions demonstrate the intended lesson, and this sort of thing is universal across every ancient culture for which we have records. Stories stick in the human mind, and they're what humans most prioritize transmitting forward through time.
Show HN: Try Archetype 360 – AI‑powered personality test, 3× deeper than MBTI
by ddesposito | 2026-03-02 15:48:36+00:00
Hi there, are you familiar with MBTI, DiSC, Big Five? Well I'm experimenting with a new kind of personality test, Archetype 360, and I'd love for you to try it for free and tell me what you think.

- 24 traits across 12 opposing pairs -- that's three times more dimensions than MBTI or DiSC, so you get a much more nuanced profile.
- A unique narrative report generated with AI (Claude), written in natural language instead of generic type blurbs.
- Your role, goals, and current challenges are blended into the analysis, so the report feels relevant to your real‑life context, not just abstract traits.

It's an "ephemeral app" so your report only lives in your browser, there's no login, and we don't store your data. Make sure you save the report as a PDF before you close the page.

What I'm looking for is honest feedback on your archetype and report:

- Did it feel accurate and "wow" or just meh?
- Did you learn anything unexpected about yourself?
- What did it miss or not go deep enough on?

I'll use your feedback to refine the prompts and the underlying model. Just comment here or use the feedback form in the app.

If there's enough interest, the next step is to combine Archetype 360 with a variation of Holland Codes / RIASEC (vocational interest areas) to create a full‑power professional orientation report.

What else would you love to see? Ideas welcome!

Best wishes,
Daniel

> You cannot face your accuser when your accuser is a robot

I don't really get this take though. If one contests the ticket, have it go to a manual review where someone looks at the tape and confirms the calibration history of the equipment, and boom now that person can be the official "accuser".

If its the argument that they might not have been the one actually driving the vehicle, just make the laws relate to the registered owner of the vehicle is ultimately responsible for the safe operation of the vehicle. If the owner wants to try and prove it wasn't them, they can deflect that in court and prove it was actually their friend or whoever.

If we had a CCTV of a murder happening we wouldn't just go "well that's just a robot not a real person making the recording, guess we need to toss that video!" I don't understand how we take that kind of position when it comes to moving violations.

Also FWIW the 4th Amendment has nothing about facing your accuser. Its the sixth amendment that talks about "...to be confronted with the witnesses against him".

Still subpar, only real DAW available is Logic Pro, the audio stack behaves differently than macOS, no support for VSTs but has support for the AU format.

A friend who I make music together had an iPad that we tried to add to the setup, in the end after some months we chucked it aside and just got a MacBook for our shared studio instead.

I tried it today for the first time. The onboarding is okay.

I picked Whatsapp but it ended up using my own account! So it's absolutely too dangerous. We are supposed to create a separate account but with which phone number? I only have one.

So I picked Telegram instead, added it to a group chat, but it was a slog to set the authorizations.

In the end I don't trust it to read my mails for security reasons so I uninstalled it!

Apple is doing a marvelous job of destroying the whole “it just works” or “it’s easy to figure out how to ____” thing they had going on. I would get over on an android 10-12 years ago and get exasperated about even trying to send a text message on the damned thing. Which, unfortunately can also now be said about the Apple experience.

Now Apple moves things around and I’m over here going AGGGHHHHHHH WHERE THE FUCK DID THEY MOVE THIS NOW , AAAAAAAAGH THIS IS SO STUPID MY BRAIN HURTS… pardon my French, I really try to avoid cursing on here……so my whole argument for my inertia or staying with Apple for the children or whatever is long gone.

Apple doesn’t care what I think about their battery draining bloated garbage software anymore so I’m quietly quitting and don’t care about them either.

I just finally gave away my MacBook to someone who needed it more than I do .. I fucking loathe Tahoe… as much as I do ios26… but haven’t cut the cord with the iPhone YET.

GrapheneOS seems to be the only contender that will get me to go along with that, Motorola may seal the deal. If they offer a cool device. I had a Nexus 6 (I think) that Motorola made and it was cool, it was just already obsolete when I got my hands on it. I could root it and do whatever I wanted on it, and half the reason I got into iPhone was that I could readily jailbreak those once upon a time. And can’t now.

Motorola had made several of my favorite phones ever before an iPhone existed. We’ll see.

I wish GrapheneOS the best. If their mission is user security and freedom, transparency is necessary. As far as I can tell, there is little public information or indications of trust. Daniel Micay posts on this thread that the names of the directors (Micay, Dmytro Mukhomor, and Khalykbek Yelshibekov) is publicly available, but that is very little information and isn't nearly sufficient to facilitate trust.

Their website grapheneos.org says nothing I can find about who or what is behind it; that is a red flag. I don't think Micay or Mukhomor are even mentioned. Github doesn't seem to say much either (not that end users will know about or look at Github).

I read that Mukhomor is running things, which is something I just learned despite following GrapheneOS - was there an annoucement? Is Mukhomor's bio anywhere? Who the heck is Mukhomor? Users' privacy depends on that person - very few have the time and ability to audit the code, and probably nobody has the ability and time to audit the code thoroughly enough that we don't need to trust Mukhomor, as well as Micay, Yelshibekov, and probably others we don't know about. Why should I trust Mukhomor, Khalykbek, and the unknown others?

Also, Google and Motorola, part of Lenovo which is subject to the Chinese government [0], are not the most encouraging partners. I know all the debate behind it and perhaps there are no good alternatives and I'm glad GrapheneOS is diversifying its hardware, but GrapheneOS should provide openness on why they trust Google and Motorola.

I have reasons to trust Linus Torvalds and other Linux leaders, Theo de Raadt, Mozilla, and many others - not perfect reasons, but some indications. I have reasons to trust Daniel Micay based on history and public activities.

[0] I know Google can be influenced by the US government; it's not the same thing but indeed also an issue, especially with the current administration's embrace of pressuring business and against individual freedom (e.g., Anthropic).

If you want to have a chance at running a large model, it needs to be quantized. The unsloth user on Huggingface manages popular quantizations for many models, Qwen included, and I think he developed dynamic GGUF quantization.

Take Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B for example. It's 72 GB. While unsloth/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B-GGUF has quantizations from 9-38 GB.

No, Nazis kicked out German citizens who they deemed to be Jewish

There are enough "enemies of the people" in the US at the moment that the MAGA leadership doesn't have to go after American citizens.

There's been rhetoric about how some Americans are not "real americans" but America seems a way off 1934 yet, and they're going about it in a different order. History never repeats, but it usually rhymes

There is a great interview that talks about the process and what it is about more generally:
https://youtu.be/HbjWOvxJjms?si=5ta-JOyfFLub2yX_

I think there are similar methods, such as nested todo-lists. But DAGs are exceptionally good for this use case of visualising work (Mikado graphs are DAGs).

A uniform-density memory foam mattress applies the same resistance across the entire sleeping surface — adequate for lighter areas like the calves but insufficient differentiation for heavier zones such as the hips and shoulders, where pressure build-up causes discomfort and restricted circulation during the night. A 7-zone support system divides the mattress into bands that provide varying degrees of resistance corresponding to the different weight loads of each body region — heavier support under the hips and lumbar, lighter contouring under the shoulders and head. The DHS single memory foam mattress uses a precision-engineered 7-zone system within a 5-layer construction including a 2cm cool gel layer and 16cm HD motion isolation foam, measuring 90×190cm with a zip-off washable cover and 3-year warranty.

Its just another example and just a detail in the broader story: We cannot trust any model provider with any tooling or other non model layer on our machines or our servers. No browsers, no cli, no apps no whatever. There may not be alternatives to frontier models yet, but everything else we need to own as true open source trustable layer that works in our interest. This is the battle we can win.

I wish. I got a Dell laptop for work and they've replaced the right Ctrl key with a Copilot key, and (because it's a locked-down work sysyem) the only thing I can remap that to is the Windows menu. And I keep hitting it out of muscle memory, interrupting everything. But at least now it doesn't launch Copilot.

Which I could add is "the only AI approved for use by IT" because they hate us.

>So now all the world’s best and brightest scientists will move to China where they’ll be welcomed in open arms

They'll also get to experience as much or more racism than they would have in America, but likely far more racism. In America you find racism in some (usually rural) areas, and people who are very accepting in others (big cities where most science research is typically done). I'm not sure China is going to be the easiest place to build a life for foreigners.

Wow,, your comment really resonated with me.
There’s a lot of insight in how you framed it.

I’ve actually been thinking about this as primarily a technology problem and, somewhat embarrassingly, I’m building something to try to address it.

When teams talk constantly across chat, calls, and meetings, a lot of the real work gets buried in the noise. Decisions are made. Tasks are implied. Commitments are spoken out loud and then they dissipate.

What we’re building is a system that extracts only the actionable parts from those conversations, turns them into tickets, assigns them automatically, and in some cases even lets AI execute the task directly. Humans do what only humans should do. AI handles what can be automated.

Recording conversations is important but motion is what creates value.
If nothing moves, nothing compounds.

I don’t think adding another storage location solves the problem.
Understanding relationships and triggering execution might.

Would genuinely love your thoughts on whether that’s directionally correct or if I’m still treating a wetware problem as software.

Before this article I'd have thought that Microslop was used to designate small snippets of AI slop, like "Let that sync in" or "And to be honest" and "It's not X, it's Y" and "Deepdive" and "Delve".

But nice to see that MS is Streisanding their way to a nice new nickname!

What were the sloperators of that channel thinking?

In any case, it should be Micro$lop (may not be banned...yet).

Don't run "du -h ~/Library/Messages" then, I've mentioned that many times before and it's crazy to me to think that Apple is just using up 100GB on my machine, just because I enable iMessage syncing and don't want to delete old conversations.

One would think that's a extremely common use case and it will only grow the more years iMessage exists. Just offload them to the cloud, charge me for it if you want but every other free message service that exists has no problem doing that.

They specifically weren't found liable for on the ground activity, so the fact that only six employees were on the ground seems like a bit of a red herring.

> how does this happen? did greenepeace just run a bad trial? or lose all public trust?

Alternative possibility: they were actually guilty. Seems likely. The idea that Greenpeace was intentionally spreading misinformation doesn't require a big leap of faith.

Our ancestors survived natural disasters, plagues, famines. Some bad things will happen but on average we'll be OK. Freaking out doesn't help. You don't need your monthly subscriptions, a car with big payments, a big house with a mortgage, or food delivery. Learn to live healthy and thrifty. And stop doomscrolling and consuming slop.

AI: See it as the biggest opportunity in your career. Time to learn and time to build.

Wars: It's completely out of your control. Ignore unless it's truly coming at your doorstep. In the rare case it is getting closer to you, start planning how to get away. It's sadly normal to have wars around the world.

US admin: midterms this year will sure change things, more drama but less actual changes.

Europe: short to mid term bad economy (specially manufacturing) but not a collapse or anything.

Tech: It turned to crap over 18 years ago when big tech sold their souls to advertising and the stock market. When Google acquired DoubleClick setting the tone for the rest. They were also already in bed with the government in spying people well before that, too. I never bought their "oopsie" when it came out to light.

Now, a much, much worse problem is the long term. Pension crisis and inverted population pyramid will be the reckoning in Europe and Asia. I'd start planning to relocate somewhere better positioned if you are young.

YMMV.

Man, I can't believe it's been that long. I remember buying Photoshop plugins for Automator that did a bunch of resizing/refinements/watermarking.

I'm guessing a lot of that is built in to photoshop now, but I have always been surprised how few people seemed to use it with how much it could do.
