Show HN: World Amazing Framework: Like Django for Civilization Any initial thoughts? This framework is meant to be a tool for construction, so if you want to play around with it for creating potential specific implementations, you can drop the contents of the website, the GitHub README, and the entire overview.md into an AI chat, and that should be enough to use the framework, at least conceptually. Would y'all want me to pre-prime a chat in Google AI Studio with the full context of the plan and some basic direction for discourse? I can share a link to a ready-to-go environment. The core documentation should answer most mechanical questions. And if you feed the docs into an AI chat, you can ask it any question you may have, or to simply ask it to explain something in different ways, or hypothesize solutions to any world issue, either systemic or regional. Gemini Pro 2.5 can take the full doc in one prompt, and its ability to co-create ideas is remarkable. I've been using it mostly through the AI Studio interface. Much of the overview is as much my work as it is a synthesis of my collaboration with Gemini Pro 2.5, ChatGPT-4o, and some early contributions from GPT-4 about a year ago. Before LLMs, I was building out pamphlet-style pages on a website (that are up at whomanatee.org, which is the base wrapper implementation of the framework), and I was planning to use them as talking points. I was anticipating that much of the deep thinking would have to happen in slow, public discourse. With LLMs, I've been able to stress-test these ideas from every possible angle, using any past event or theory to see if the framework could withstand scrutiny. At one point, a model argued that Adam Smith would have rejected this idea as fantasy. So I worked with it to develop an economic plan that "synthetic Adam" praised. It's incredible that we now have the ability to get synthesized thoughts from almost any perspective. You could ask it, "What would Barack Obama think of this plan? And using the framework, what would be your response to any hesitations he may have?" And it responds with incredible analysis, synthesis, and feedback. https://bit.ly/3VLR8Au October 4, 2025 at 11:14PM

Show HN: Magic-markers – control a smart bulb with crayola markers i made this for my niece for her 3rd birthday. it was inspired by this reel: https://bit.ly/4mPvnL0... . the main difference (i believe) is that this is entirely self-contained and does not require integrating with a smart home system. the bulb connects directly to a wifi network on the nanoc6, and the nanoc6 posts commands directly to the tasmota command endpoint on the smart bulb. this was a lot of fun to build :) https://bit.ly/4nsMNhI September 30, 2025 at 01:03PM

Show HN: Neural Emotion Matrix for NPCs https://bit.ly/4n7FUlb

Show HN: Neural Emotion Matrix for NPCs Hey! I built this system to humanize NPCs by giving them emotions using Rust and ML. The system provides emotion coordinates (based on Russell's circumplex model) from text input or actions, with persistent emotional memory per entity. Think NPCs that remember how they feel about specific players or events. I pre-trained a DistilBERT model on ~1k video game dialogues (Skyrim, Cyberpunk, etc.) and plan to extract and evaluate 100k+ dialogues soon. However studio/team can manually add dialogues to enrich their own dataset. The matrix doesn't generate dialogue, it only analyzes content. When you pass text or an action, it returns emotion coordinates on the valence (pleasant/unpleasant) and arousal(energetic/calm) scale. For example: - [0.00, 0.00] = neutral - [0.29, 0.80] = excited - [-0.50, -0.30] = sad/tired I made a quick visualizer here to help understand https://bit.ly/3WnQZmU The system helps select which dialogue/action to play based on emotional state: - Player says something bad to NPC → system detects negative valence → game picks from "angry dialogue pool" - NPC remembers past positive interactions → system returns positive valence → friendlier responses available So, the devs still write the dialogues or choose the next actions, but the matrix helps manage NPC emotional states and memory dynamically. Here's the project structure to better understand how it works: - src/config: Helper utilities for NPC configuration setup - src/module: The core engine with emotion prediction, memory storage, and entity management - src/api: FFI layer with pub extern "C" to bridge our modules with C/C++ game engines and modding tools (Unity, Unreal, etc.) To implement it, just call `build.sh`, it will create DLL files that you can use to call the matrix functions directly in C++/C/C#. I'd love feedback on code quality and overall architecture. Feel free to be honest about the good, the bad, and the ugly. PRs welcome if you want to contribute! https://bit.ly/48OIRmR September 29, 2025 at 02:05PM

Show HN: BetterBrain – Dementia prevention, covered by insurance https://bit.ly/4gSyznT

Show HN: BetterBrain – Dementia prevention, covered by insurance Hey all! I’ve been building BetterBrain for the past few months, which is the first dementia prevention program entirely covered by insurance. BetterBrain combines expert clinicians, comprehensive testing and state of the art AI - and for many insurance plans is $0. Research shows that dementia can be detected up to 20 years in advance. Despite this, many people at risk of dementia overlook regular brain health assessments. Many members of our founding team have family members affected by neurodegenerative disease. We’re also hiring aggressively if anyone is interested in changing the future of treating neurodegenerative disease. Would love to talk to anyone interested https://bit.ly/4h36biX https://bit.ly/4h36biX October 3, 2025 at 03:03AM

Show HN: Uber for Flights https://bit.ly/4pScw4P

Show HN: Uber for Flights My friend and I built BookMyFlight to finally modernize flight search + booking. Why we built this: - Personalization. I fly the same route every month, and there’s no platform that knows my preferences so that I can open it, find and book my flight, and close it within a minute. - Booking is slow. I hate seeing a long clunky airline form each time I need to book. I want booking a flight to feel more like booking an Uber. How it works: 1. Optionally make an account and save your traveler preferences. Personally, I've specified my routine route as SFO to CLE and that I only want red-eye direct flights for this route. 2. Search for flights using chat or the search panel. Chat feels especially time-saving when you have preferences saved (e.g. I just say “search my routine trip"). 3. Once you find the flight you want, use the one-click book feature which books your flight directly with the airline. The first time you book a flight, you’ll have to fill out your traveler info, but you won't see that form after that. Notes: - Your booking is directly with the airline (this means when something goes wrong, you get direct support from the airline—not a third-party) - You can add your rewards numbers for each airline to keep earning points/status The ultimate goal is to create the best possible experience that every traveler wants, but that OTAs and airlines don’t care to create. Also very receptive to hearing pain points from frequent flyers; we think this space is really outdated and could use some innovation. Try it out and let us know what you think :) https://bit.ly/4pJjclE October 2, 2025 at 08:59PM

Show HN: AI that trades speed for reliability in site generation https://bit.ly/3KKGUhg

Show HN: AI that trades speed for reliability in site generation I run a small agency and we’ve been building client websites for years. The work is hands-on, repetitive, and time consuming. We tried platforms like Replit and Lovable, but the output didn’t hold up for production use. Things were missing, editing was limited, and reliability was an issue. Out of that frustration we built Zylo, an AI platform that generates production-ready web apps. It is not instant like Lovable (our builds take roughly 15 minutes on average depending on complexity) but we focused on completeness and reliability instead of speed. What Zylo does Generates full stack Next.js projects including frontend, backend, and database setup Built-in domain management so you can bring your own or purchase directly inside Zylo E-commerce system that feels like a lightweight Shopify with product management and categories Stripe integration through API connection for payments How it works under the hood You interact with an AI chatbot that coordinates several agents following the same processes we used manually when building sites Agents generate code, proofread, and check for missing assets or design issues Any build, runtime, or TypeScript errors are automatically caught and repaired before deployment A final agent handles production deployment and gets the project hosted and ready for a domain connection Editing We put a lot of effort into the editing side. There is a live Monaco editor that renders the site. You can click directly on any component, section, or entire page and pass that as context back to the agents for regeneration. This was something we found lacking in other tools and wanted to solve. What’s next We are currently working on a visual workflow builder. Think of something similar to GoHighLevel’s UI, but instead of manually wiring things, the AI fills in the code and functionality behind the scenes. The idea is to let people map out flows visually and have them actually run in production. We would love feedback from the HN crowd. The big trade-off we made is slower build times in exchange for more complete and reliable projects. Do you think that trade-off makes sense, or would speed always win out for you? https://bit.ly/4o0LEOp September 29, 2025 at 10:03PM

Show HN: Reddit browser for MCP clients – works with any AI assistant https://bit.ly/3KiKvDk

Show HN: Reddit browser for MCP clients – works with any AI assistant Built this to give AI assistants native Reddit access. No more copy-pasting links. You can ask things like "what's the sentiment on TypeScript vs JavaScript in r/webdev" or "analyze the top posts about GPT-5 today" and get instant analysis. Technical: TypeScript, 3-tier rate limiting (anonymous works fine for most), LRU cache under 50MB. Works with any MCP client, not just Claude. Someone used it to track reactions to H-1B changes across different country subreddits in real-time - that was pretty cool to see. Open to feature requests and contributions welcome! Would love to hear how you might use this or any Reddit API patterns you've found useful. https://bit.ly/46D3rUB September 29, 2025 at 06:22AM

Show HN: Free developer-first OneNote alternative https://bit.ly/4nXFT40

Show HN: Free developer-first OneNote alternative Hey Everyone, been working on a note-taking app called janta (Just Another Note Taking App) the past few months. You can try it out at app.janta.dev (you will be redirected to app.janta.dev/canvas/temporary, which is the locally-stored whiteboard you can access) I felt limited with OneNote, Excalidraw, and other infinite-canvas style apps, so I built an alternative. You have access to code-editors, Desmos graphs, and rich text editors (SlateJS). This is because the canvas is designed in a way that allows web components to exist on the same layer as pen-strokes, so you can annotate code, circle points-of-inflection, and programmatically generate graphs using matplotlib.pyplot! This is a beta release, and feedback would be awesome! https://bit.ly/4nXFTB2 September 29, 2025 at 03:04AM

Show HN: Automatically set real iOS alarms for calendar events https://bit.ly/46ZhwNA

Show HN: Automatically set real iOS alarms for calendar events I kept missing appointments and meetings because calendar notifications are too easy to ignore. Alarms, on the other hand, always break through silent mode/DND and force you to acknowledge them — but setting them manually every day was another chore. With iOS 26’s new AlarmKit, I built Beacon: it automatically syncs with your Apple Calendar and converts important events into real iOS alarms. You can define simple rules (like “only events with ‘Interview’ in the title” or “meetings with 3+ attendees”), and Beacon sets the alarms for you — no extra work required. Would love feedback! https://apple.co/3IIHiwe September 29, 2025 at 02:11AM
