I switched to using my own domain for important emails some 10 years ago, after a friend got his Google Account taken over while on a month long hike without internet. When he got back his account had been banned because they used it for click fraud, no way to contact Google to get it reinstated, he lost access to his GMail, with it all email history since 2004, logins to accounts tied to it, etc.

I don't want ever to go through this nightmare.

Show HN: Beno.one Our Journey to Automating Reddit Engagement with AI
Hi hi,

We started just like many small businesses — lots of projects but no budget for big ads. We needed a way to find customers for our unknown products.
Then we noticed people on Reddit talking about problems our product could solve. We started replying manually, got some good responses, but it took forever.

That's when Beno was born to use AI to find the right conversations on Reddit and engage automatically.

First Results
Within a month of using Beno, we reached more people, got more interest, and saved a lot of time. For example, one of our products reached 700,000 people in a week — all automated.

What Beno Does
1. It tracks and analyzes Reddit discussions in real-time.
2. It posts relevant comments, mimicking human interaction.
3. We use our own accounts to post replies, so you don't need to create or manage new ones.
4. Users can use Beno just to find relevant discussions and suggested by us replies, then post them with your own accounts if you prefer.
5. Users give us your product name, link, and a comprehensive description on our website. We handle the rest.

Our Tech Stack
Beno is built using Svelte for the frontend, Pocketbase for the backend, and Python for our AI processes. We have a complicated LLM pipeline using ChatGPT and Groq. Notably, we do not use Langchain, and I recommend you don't either :)

We are still adding new features, like better analytics and more integrations. This is my first serious project, so I would love to hear your feedback!

Check out Beno at beno.one and let me know what you think!

Note: all comments are posted by our team manually. We’ve optimized the process of finding and crafting these replies, ensuring we stay within platform guidelines and deliver effective results.

> ‘Correct'? In what sense? 'Correctness' and halting have little to do with each other.

Confident ignorance isn’t a good look. To help you out, here you go from the wiki[1]:

Within the latter notion, partial correctness, requiring that if an answer is returned it will be correct, is distinguished from total correctness, which additionally requires that an answer is eventually returned, i.e. the algorithm terminates.

To be fair to your time and mine—I stopped reading your reply there based on the principle that nonsense follows nonsense, so you needn’t elaborate further.

That's why I only mentioned a different condition which hopefully doesn't lead to bad sportsmanship.
> Yes, it is. There's a limit to how efficient you can go though

This is why reducing energy use needs to be in addition to everything else: solar, nuclear, wind, batteries, the works. Some of the R&D won't work out as planned; some solutions will only work in specific situations. That's okay, as long as we don't have all our eggs in one basket.

I have a rule of thumb that software works progressively worse the further you are away from the Bay Area - both geographically and culturally. For example, we use roundabouts (traffic circles) everywhere here in Australia and google maps still gives pretty terrible directions when driving on them. I was shocked the first time I drove on the 101 just how good the spoken directions are - but it makes sense given the actual Google maps engineers drive that road. If the directions were bad there, they would get fixed.

I shudder to think how many bugs must show up for people who use right-to-left languages or use non-ascii charsets - especially before Unicode & emoji were popular. I’m ashamed to admit I don’t even know how to test if my software works properly in languages like Arabic.

Of course software made in the Bay Area assumes the whole planet uses pacific time. I’m sorry to throw shade, but that’s entirely in character for the area.
I know that many on HN can't imagine it, but a lot of us work for less than that for any number of reasons:

* We're already making a top 5% income for our area and have more than enough for our needs and even an early retirement.

* We get non-monetary benefits from our job like WFH and/or flexible scheduling.

* We're working on projects that excite us and make us happy to go to work and that matters more than total comp.

Money aside, I'd rather see Ladybird hire 6 developers who are seriously passionate and live all across the world than see them hire 6 Bay Area developers who think they're better because they ask for more comp. That the passionate and global developers are cheaper is just a nice bonus.
thats nice! in my first comment I did say that both are good for performance. I just find the idea of performance being irrelevant to be...ridiculous.
There are many Google Docs alternatives, including some great open source options such as HedgeDoc and Outline.

What is missing a great Excel or Sheets alternative. I wanted to break my business out of the Google Workspace ecosystem earlier this year, but the lack of a good spreadsheets alternative was one of the main things holding me back.
When you know the underlying consumer is an AI model, you can do a lot more to make the input data useful.
> China censors politics. The West censors intellectual property.

The West also teaches its citizens to use language in very interesting ways. Someone unfamiliar with our customs might interpret your phrase to mean that the West doesn't censor politics.

In my opinion subverting the base means of communication is by far the most clever and powerful of the three techniques.
This is one of the reasons I'm always singing the praises of Kanban over Scrum. Scrum encourages busy work on too many things. Kanban encourages ruthless focus on a few things that need to be done next, and what is blocking it. Scrum encourages "agile cosplay" with folks taking on things they shouldn't be doing now to make the right (imaginary) story point total for the sprint (which of course gets gamed as points get estimated to fit). Kanban encourages teaming up to get the hard stuff out of the way now.

I have led a team in a transition from an over-done scrum to minimal Kanban process and talked to many others who did the same, from small startups to AAA game companies, and they all loved it. I've never heard one dev say they thought it was more productive to have scrum. As far as I can see, Scrum makes middle managers, "scrum masters" and people who don't care how much work actually gets done happy. Kanban actually helps development go faster.

If anyone's interested, Microsoft press has a great light book on. The WIP limits are a key part.
I find the diff tool, merge tool, blame, and fit history tooling in IntelliJ to be best in class.

At the top level of any sport, the expense comes from the coaching, exercise science, travel and other support over the course of years. That's true whether the game is cycling, or football. A $20,000 bike is peanuts in comparison to this cost. Unless you are at the top 0.001 percent of cyclists, better/more training has a much bigger impact than gear. $1,000 gets you a competitive road bike that you can win your local races with. Even cheaper if you buy used.

> From what I read about China, they're constantly scouting primary schools for Olympic talent, so you can come from any background and reach the top in a sport that would be limited to wealthier people in other countries.

This is what wealthy countries do as well. Most wealthy nations have programs to identify and develop top-level athletes. An obvious example being the very lucrative scholarships offered at American universities.
There are many thousands of DOS programs still in active use today -- and not just by hobbyists or for educational purposes, in active commercial use, if you require economically productive criteria to consider something practical: Many industrial control systems still used every day operate through DOS applications written in the 1980s.

Spending a lot of time and money on a complete rewrite upgrade to make these control systems to use some other OS 'just because' would serve no practical purpose. They work fine on DOS. It would be expensive and risky to change that.

At the same time, MS-DOS has been unmaintained for decades. FreeDOS is almost entirely compatible with MS-DOS applications, and is still actively maintained with bugfixes and so on.

FreeDOS sounds like a very practical option indeed.

Hi HN! I'm the creator of OpenGPA, an open-source General Purpose Agent platform.

Key features:
- Self-hostable ChatGPT-like agent
- Extensible with custom Actions for enterprise data/APIs
- Built in Java/Spring for easy enterprise integration

I built this to explore agentic AI development and its potential in enterprise software. Looking for feedback, use cases, and contributors.

What challenges do you see in integrating AI agents into enterprise systems? What features would be most valuable to you?
And this isn't just a matter of AI: You see all kinds of companies trying to provide value adds on top of cloud: "We will annotate DNA for you as a service!" When all they do is dockerize the same tools their customers use, and serve as small shims for the least sophisticated customers. The moment said customer grows, they understand they can replace the vendor with less than a week of work.

The people making shovels make the money by having strong profit margins, becoming a default vendor, and having a moat. Good luck doing that in AI!

And my favorite counter example of selling tools is precisely docker: They built tech used everywhere... yet how much value they captured? It's tge same story all over dev tool space.

This is good news considering that it's amazing that in 2024 we still don't have any decent alternative to the Google Docs suite that is not Microsoft.

In our small company we tried a self hosted Nextcloud instance and we ended up moving away from that after years of pain. Now we are in HedgeDoc, that is neither ideal because of its lack of central way to manage files collectively, etc. So, I guess good news.

> Those 15-minute delays are annoying

The 15 minute delays are annoying, the trains that do not arrive at all, however are travel ending. Bonus points: the DB was encouraged to cut train travel short or skip rail stations to make up for lost time because at least until recently the official statistics did not cover trains that did not arrive at all. That on top of the dozens of punctual ghost trains I seem to miss while praying for an actuall train to arrive at a train station under cunstruction that can't handle half the advertised train traffic.

> the situation is better than it's said to be

It is better in parts of Germany, there is a CCC talk from a few years ago that ends with a "free upgrade" slide, if your train had to travel through any of the listed stations you where basically guaranteed a travel delay of at least one hour.
The only thing I can see doing that is cheap fusion power, and that doesn’t seem like something that AI can help much with, at least not the uses I’ve seen it put to. It doesn’t seem great at those types of problems, at least LLM doesn’t seem to be.
Money can help in any sport, but talent and physical attributes trumps all. At least with cycling, people can cycle almost anywhere. Sports like golf are hard to break into if someone doesn't have money because rounds and practice almost always have ongoing costs.

> What must the observer get from it

The compulsion to raise and seek answers for questions like this has a lot to do with it.

Over the last couple centuries, increasingly much of the world has been inducted into a culture that looks at life from the perspective of an individual, looks at that individual's life through the lens of economy and benefit, and invites the individual to approach that life as some engineer seeking optimization.

For many, this way of seeing the world as economic individuals is even projected onto the people of elsewhere and elsewhen, taking for granted that they must have been doing the same thing whether they knew it or not.

A different perspective sees ritual and tradition as the blood and flesh of a community or legacy, and sees the community and legacy that lives for hundreds or thousands of years as the far more important thing than the individual that arrives and leaves over the pittance of just a few decades.

For a community, carrying forward a ritual is like breathing, and an individual who fully understands themselves as a fleeting little lung cell in this long-lasting community implicitly fulfills their role of perpetuating the community's life by practicing the ritual.

But what's interesting is that asking questions framed like yours is itself a kind of ritual, perpetuating a different (and much more recently birthed) community, and there are countless other rituals of "modernity" that we implicitly peform. These rituals are so natural to us that we barely even recognize them as something outside of us... the same, most likely, your great-grandparents with theirs.
How about just change it to flag football? That would prioritize speed.
I have a few bins for all my tools, including the cables; each bin is labeled. For some cables, I have a small closet where I can hang them. It's still very space-efficient and easy to retrieve since they are hung. I made a small railing where I can just add the cable, and the connector part will be used to hold it.
The similarity between the EoG and Genesis flood stories can probably be laid to the fact that the first major human societies were built around flood plains of rivers in regions that have otherwise stable climates. When your society spends centuries in that situation, floods are the single most important natural event that happens to you. If would be shocking if they didn't feature prominently in your stories.
Yeah. I can think of one ritual that's probably even older: burying the dead.

However what interesting about this tradition is the degree of specificity that was preserved with this ritual (e.g. stick of same type of wood, coated with fat, put in a small fire to break), none of which has any real practical purpose.

> Modern German itself has many weirdly used English words without any immigrants to bring them in the first place.

This is correct. Case in point: Beamer.

> A few food names do not qualify as "influenced the dialect" for me.

For you. That doesn’t change the fact that the term has widespread use all over the national territory.

> Mapudungun did influence the Chilean dialect

If you want to stress the point, I’d additionally argue that a larger amount of indigenous-derived terms (including several words for vegetables) came from the Quechua. Although, according to your own set of criteria, a few food names would not qualify.

I don't think dissolving this difference necessarily results in Smalltalk-like problems. Any kind of principled dissolution of this boundary must ensure the soundness of the static type system, otherwise they're not really static types, so the dynamic part should not violate type guarantees. It could look something like "Type Systems as Macros":

Sure, nightmare scenarios can happen, but how often do they, really? There are many successful FOSS projects who have teams of volunteers taking care of infrastructure in this way for years, if not decades, and how many bad situations have we had overall?

Simply put, this approach is proven to work. We can always "butwhatif?" ourselves into a corner and get paralyzed because of that, but it's senseless.

Turns out procrastination is good
I arrived 1 hour late to an online meeting once in which I was scheduled to give a talk. The root cause was this: I (in Australia) was subscribed to the event calendar. The event was actually a reoccurring event at the same time every month in UTC time. But day or so before the event happened, daylight savings changed in LA - which for some reason was the time zone the calendar was set to. As a result, the meeting in my local Australian time drifted by an hour. Unfortunately, only some people used the online calendar. So many people (including the organisers) showed up on time.

Time zones are a curse on humanity.

I've been inadvertently working on this topic and I'd like to share some findings.

* Do not confuse bots with DDoS. While bot traffic may end up overwhelming your server, your DDoS SaaS will not stop that traffic unless you have some kind of bot protection enabled, for example the product described in post.

* A lot of bots announce themselves via user agents, some don't.

* If you're running an ecom shop with a lot of product pages, expect a large portion of traffic to be bots and scrapers. In our case it was upto 50%, which was surprising.

* Some bots accept cookies and these skew your product analytics.

* We enabled automatic bot protection and a of lot our third party integrations ended up being marked as bots and their traffic was blocked. We eventually turned that off.

* (EDIT) Any sophisticated self implemented bot protection isn't worth the effort for most companies out there. But I have to admit, it's very exciting to think about all the ways to block bots.

What's our current status? We've enabled monitoring to keep a look out for DDoS attempts but we're taking the hit on bot traffic. The data on our the website isn't really private info, except maybe pricing, and we're really unsure how to think about the new AI bots scraping this information. ChatGPT already gives a summary of what our company does. We don't know if that's a good thing or not. Would be happy to hear anyone's thoughts on how to think about this topic.
Russians genuinely do not care about Eastern Europeans. Last time I've checked, the only Eastern Europeans living in Crimea were Russians, with some Crimean Tatars and Russian-speaking Ukrainians. Ditto for the "new territories" including the Donbass.

Actually, same for Kiev (add some Jewish minority in Odessa and Dnepropetrovsk). So you do not have anything to do with it.

The rest of advise is unwanted. It looks like Russia is not going to collapse in any of the modes you have described, and it's going to hold whatever lands it is holding, and that is how it's going to be.
