Has anyone successfully launched anappto connect people based personality types?
Hey everyone! I'm working on a new app called GetPeople, which matches people based on their psychological profile and personality traits to help build deeper and more meaningful connections. It's still in its early stages, and I'm trying to figure out the best ways to improve it and attract users.

I'm curious — has anyone in this community successfully launched something similar or faced challenges with user acquisition or creating engaging content? I’d love to hear about your experiences and any advice you might have on building a community around an app like this.

Any thoughts or tips would be really appreciated!
What an amazing way of showcasing development, each with excerpts and notes highlighting expansion decisions.

Are there other examples of this?

Amazing!
Show HN: Jade – an iMessage blue bubble agent for group chats
I thought it’d be fun to create an agent that lives in iMessage, and most of all that works in group chats on iMessage. I called her Jade

Multiplayer experiences with agents haven’t been really explored as much, and it was interesting to test the boundaries of LLMs with respect to that.

I used durable objects from Cloudflare for the backend, and a MacMini that’s always online to handle the reading and writing to iMessage.

The nice part is that it decides whether to reply in the group chat, a bit like a human would. It doesn’t always reply like you’d expect in a ChatGPT-like setting.
And it can also understand images!

It was a fun project to work on, I may write a detailed technical post about it if there’s interest.

See a demo here: https://x.com/albtaiuti/status/1899445452145373201
I experimented a bit using deep search trees to find better Factorio trajectories (MCTS), which worked somewhat well. Unfortunately, it's very computationally expensive, and probably only makes sense in a training context (i.e gathering trajectories to train a model in a supervised setting).

> I meant the goal of your function needs to be grasped within a reasonable amount of time. This works for every codebase.

It really doesn't though. Here's a function of mine. It's maybe 40 lines of logic, so medium-scale. It's part of an intrusive red/black tree implementation for Zephyr. I'm fairly proud of how it turned out, and think that this code is awfully readable given its constraints.

No human being is going to understand fix_extra_red() without having already read and understood the rest of the file, and coming to it with an understanding of the underlying algorithm. Certainly I can't. I can't even get started on maintaining this code that I originally wrote within a five minute time frame, it's an hour at least every time, just to remind myself how it works:

https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/blob/main/lib/u...

Now maybe this is "bad code", and "good code" could exist for this problem that still meets your requirements. But... if so that's an awfully celestial definition if it's so hard to find.
I recall learning TLA+ around 2015/2016 to solve a hard bug in an OpenStack deployment. I was miffed that I was some 17 years into my career and had only learned about it then. It was so useful!

Since then I've used it for similar purposes as this. I try to share with my team when I do this kind of work. But often folks are highly resistant to it so I use it on my own when I'm working on a hard project.

Spending the time up-front to work out the design is often more cost effective in terms of time and money than iterating in production towards a, "more correct design." Getting it right first sounds hard, and it's challenging, but it's worth it for the kinds of projects where mistakes are costly, difficult to diagnose and to fix.

And I think more software developers are starting to realize this [0] (even if they're using different methods).

> On Saturday, immigration agents showed at the apartment building of Mahmoud Khalil, a leader of last year’s pro-Palestinian protests at Columbia University, and told him his student visa had been revoked and that he was being detained. Khalil is married to an American, and his lawyer, speaking to the agents by phone, informed them that he had a green card, but they said that had been revoked as well. He was taken away, and as of this writing appears to be in a detention facility in Louisiana.

> In a post on Truth Social, Donald Trump made it clear that Khalil was snatched because of his activism. “This is the first arrest of many to come,” wrote Trump. “We know there are more students at Columbia and other Universities across the Country who have engaged in pro-terrorist, anti-Semitic, anti-American activity, and the Trump Administration will not tolerate it.”...

> ...Khalil, who grew up in a Palestinian refugee camp in Syria, hasn’t been charged with any crime. A dossier on him compiled by Canary Mission, a right-wing group that tracks anti-Zionist campus activists, includes no examples of threatening or violent speech, just demands for divestment from Israel. Last year Khalil was suspended from his graduate program for his role in the campus demonstrations, but the suspension was reversed soon after, apparently for lack of evidence, and he completed his degree. The Department of Homeland Security claimed he “led activities aligned to Hamas,” but that’s an impossibly vague, legally meaningless charge.

I believe the owner of Kickass Torrents was either in Ukraine or Poland, can't remember anymore. Didn't save that one. Kim Dotcom was in New Zealand, and the crime he was accused of committing in the United States (when he had never stepped foot in the United States, and also a crime that isn't extraditable under New Zealand law) he barely managed to avoid being shipped off in chains.

That won't save anyone.

I wouldn't recommend relying on the "collapse of American hegemony" to save anyone. But especially not anyone you care about (like maybe yourself).
Amazing resource. Highly recommended for both content and approachability.
I found this example troubling because once all the line noise is added,

first-op second-op third-op

fourth-op fifth-op sixth-op

feels so much more impenetrable than

- first-op

- second-op

- third-op

- fourth-op

- fifth-op

- sixth-op

The point of functional styles isn't purely brevity (as implied by the commentary around this example), it also puts a focus on the clear sequence of operations and helps reduce "operators and operands" beneficially as discussed early in the post. In general I found the post oddly dismissive of these styles, instead of weighing tradeoffs as I would hope.

So then why do millions come to the US to work backbreaking jobs in the agriculture or construction sector risking deportation and receiving no such benefits? It turns out the greatest economic impetus for migration is not available social services but available work of better pay. Same reasons why software engineers flock to the coasts. You see migration into Germany because literally all of south and eastern and the poorer parts of western europe are clamoring for finding work in Germany. And of course also middle easterners and africans, which the right wing media seems to fixate almost exclusively and not the constant flow of slavic people doing the same for the same reasons, probably owing to skin color and religion and the ease of slanting rhetoric along those lines for propaganda purposes for the bigots of the right wing base.

In the past 20 years, I see 2 that could be qualified as offensive, at most.

NATO's command in 2003 in Afghanistan came following an unanimous UN Security Council resolution; Russia even provided support. But yeah, let's count 1 here, given the disaster of the whole thing.

Involvement during the Libya campaign in 2011? under a UN mandate again; Russia didn't veto, abstained, and afterwise criticised how it's been interpreted on the ground. Let's count 1.

That makes 2.

NATO did not join the USA in Iraq.

Kosovo Force is a peacekeeping mission.

Ocean Shield was an anti-piracy mission.

Baltic Air Policing, following the Baltic states joining NATO in 2004, is practically a shared border patrol across these states.

Enhanced Forward Presence, since 2016 is a deterrence in response to Russia actions in 2014 in Crimea.

This is an example LLM project for Pocket Flow, a 100-line LLM framework: https://github.com/The-Pocket/PocketFlow
I fly ~20+ segments a year exclusively on SWA, and Elliot Management is slowly ruining the org for their profits.
To recap and some: The one who’ll create the graphical user interface for LLMs (3D or “4D” and game-like) will be the next billionaire Jobs/Gates (both earned a lot from graphical operation systems) because computers only became popular after the graphical user interface was invented, not many used them when they had just a command line (similar to the current AI chatbots that are just a command line compared to what’s possible with a place AI user interface). While AI agents are a lot like bash scripts of the old, those things don't empower people as much and won't be as popular, as 3D UIs for multimodal LLMs, I call them non-agentic static place AIs, where we are the only agents. I think they are very safe because they make us the agents.

We can have multimodal LLM OS with a GUI and we'll have apps that allow us to explore it in useful ways. We'll even have a "Multiversal Browser" that connects our LLM graphical OSes, we'll be the only agents. Basically we'll eventually be all-poweful, while the static place AI OS will be eventually the static place of all-knowing, the "direct democratic simulated multiverse". I know it's confusing and counterintuitive, so just ask if you have something to ask) I'm much better at answering

(Again kudos to the Jeli crew!)

To not give too much of our roadmap away in a public forum, some of the basic components of overrides, paging groups and the web UI - keep your eyes peeled this year, one of our big focus areas is looking at how not only do we eliminate some of these gaps around on-call management and UI, but also going beyond just filling these table stakes. As you might imagine, PagerDuty scaled pretty aggressively (while also keeping our high reliability standards in place - customer trust is our #1 priority, after all we need to be up when everyone else is down), and we've had to make some investments to unlock our roadmap for this upcoming year.

There are humans over here at PagerDuty who care a lot about folks like yourself and I consider myself lucky to get build products for people who are responsible for ensuring things just "work".
You typically don't represent that information in the type of the object itself but rather as separate information for the type of the values (ie fields). So maybe it's "a list, and also the values are lists" or maybe it's "a list, and also the first value is a string, and the other values are integers"... and maybe it's "a list, and the values are strings, and also it has a field named 'foo' that's an integer for some reason".

You can still have the same information (depending on the actual system), just represented differently - parametric polymorphism is a bit too rigid here because not everything fits neatly into generic schemas.

> the game is about eventually building thousands of the new item.

I disagree that you need significant amount of thinking ahead. At the beginning spaghetti belt is fine, as you have little resources and you don't have the luxury of overbuilding. Once you start getting "bigger" and into more complex designs you can just leave what you already built how it is and build the new stuff somewhere else.

By the time you need to produce thousands of pieces of an item you can probably prepare a blueprint that builds the whole factory in a click.

My approach to factor.io is built on phasesw

1: build ad hoc infrastructure for the specific material that I need, close to the raw resources

2: prepare blueprints for specific resources, so that if I need more of something I can just build an extra factory. I make the blueprints so that I can compose them, like input belts on one side and output belt on the other. such "factories" are almost self contained, as in they get only a subset of materials (plates, plastic and stuff that involves liquids) and produce all the intermediate materials. This leaves some optimizations on the table, but simplify the logistic. Use trains to fetch resources from far.

3: compose the blueprints of the previous step to make "megafactories" with stations included. While at step 2 input and output of the factories are belts, at this step the input/output are train stations for specific material (with proper names, so I can add a new factory and trains will start delivering materials right away)

Of course my approach is not the only possible and probably not even efficient. I play for fun, with no care for the time it takes, as long as the time spent is enjoyable.

I'm not trying to say that more than half of people care, I'm saying that a lot of people care, but it's a situation where "vote with your wallet" would only work if it was a very strong preference, because the competition for good phones is limited and too many features are bundled together. So millions of people have their desire unmet despite the technology being able to meet it with a small size penalty and at negligible dollar cost.

It's not a conspiracy that manufacturers will all make a choice that saves 50 cents if 99.9% of people that care will suck it up for other reasons. But if two phones were offered with everything else equal except battery replacement, half a millimeter, and $1 on price, I'm confident that a very significant fraction of people would pick the replaceable battery option.
