Hey all

I'm working on this new app platform that's Ads and algorithm free. Looking for feedback and review to see if it's going in the right direction. I'm using it daily but trying to figure out how to make it something useful for others and sustainable as products like Kagi.

Hi HN,

I’m researching how early-stage AI and health-tech startups think about protecting their innovations.

Traditional patents are expensive, slow and often misaligned with how fast AI products evolve. I’m curious:

Are founders filing patents early? Are you relying on trade secrets? Publishing defensively? Not worrying about IP at all? Waiting until revenue?

We’re collecting responses through a short 60-second survey to better understand real-world behavior:

If you’d rather just comment here, that’s equally helpful.

I’m happy to share aggregated insights back with the community.

Thanks, Shaheen

Hi! We open-sourced mt_audio, a stream-based audio module for Flutter that wraps just_audio + audio_service behind a single facade.

We built this because in multiple production apps (podcast/radio/audiobook-like flows) we kept re-implementing the same glue: background playback, notifications, queue handling, stream/state wiring, and integration edge cases. The goal is a small dependency that gives a consistent API and reduces app-level complexity (no required external state management).

Key features:

background playback + system notifications

queue management (playlist-first workflows)

Android Auto & Apple CarPlay support behind the same facade

example app + ready UI widgets (Now Playing / controls)

Feedback welcome — especially on API shape, missing edge cases, and docs/examples.

The article provides an overview of 'awesome on-chain agents', which are decentralized software agents that operate on blockchain platforms. It covers various categories of on-chain agents, including decentralized finance (DeFi) agents, cross-chain agents, and governance agents, highlighting their diverse functionalities and use cases.

GrowthClaw is an open source workflow pack and skill that connects to OpenClaw and provides it with a structured marketing runtime.

It adds an explicit operating layer around the agent by modeling product context, generating strategy versions, producing prioritized tasks, enforcing approval gates, executing work, and evaluating outcomes through controlled state transitions. Workflows are declared in YAML and all entities such as tasks, artifacts, evaluations, and strategy revisions are persisted in SQLite, making the system inspectable and replayable.

Each agent role follows a defined rubric, and execution results feed into a scheduled strategy evolution loop that reassesses context and prior performance before proposing new work. Nothing runs without approval, but iteration continues autonomously based on observed outcomes and stored state.

The goal is to explore whether growth can be delegated to an agent operating inside a constrained feedback system, where adaptation emerges from measurable results and decisions are governed by explicit rules rather than informal adjustments.

The article discusses how Democrats are planning to focus on artificial intelligence and data centers in their 2028 platform, aiming to address concerns about the impact of emerging technologies on jobs and the economy.

The article discusses a modular music controller called Synth, which allows users to create music by assembling different modules like building blocks. The controller aims to make music production more accessible and intuitive for both beginners and experienced musicians.

When I wanted to decode JWT or format the JSON that I got from the system, I searched for those tools in Google. I'd choose one from the top results and use it. But every time, I felt like this was wrong. What if they intercepted my JWT? What if they saved my JSON? Those files sometimes could have personal information or even worse, actual access to the system.

My laziness won over my guilt every time, but not anymore. AI can generate those tools easily. I just built one for myself (took a couple of hours to perfect it). You can use mine, build from mine, or you can even generate your own from scratch. Those web utilities out there are security risks. Don't use them. They will be dead soon.

One of the most popular pieces of advice in tech is, before you build a product and release it to the public, talk to people.

What do they mean exactly?

I think this advice is one of those things people repeat because at the surface level it makes sense. You have a solution for a problem, so find those who have the problem. But when you think about it, it does not make any sense. It is more like it sounds like "I got a small loan of one million dollars from my father." Technically correct, but what is left out is actually what defeats any merit the statement might ever have.

In my life, I have never said "I wish there was a place I could go, or someone I could talk to so that I am sold to." The adblock industry is a testament to my experience. People hate ads so much that advertisers were forced to create programming useful enough that ads would merely be a side effect.

So what exactly do people mean by "talk to people"? At bare minimum, the statement must be qualified first. Talk to your network. If you do not have one, do something else.
