Ask HN: How do you deal with people who trust LLMs?
A lot of people use LLMs as the source of their objective truth. They have a question that would be very well answered with a search leading to a reputable source, but instead they ask some LLM chat bot and just blindly trust whatever it says.
How do you deal with that? Do you try to tell them about hallucinations and that LLMs have no concept of true or false? Or do you just let them be? What do you do when they do that in a conversation with you or encounter LLMs being used as a source for something that affects you?

Show HN: Han – A Korean programming language written in Rust
A few weeks ago I saw a post about someone converting an entire C++ codebase to Rust using AI in under two weeks.
That inspired me — if AI can rewrite a whole language stack that fast, I wanted to try building a programming language from scratch with AI assistance.
I've also been noticing growing global interest in Korean language and culture, and I wondered: what would a programming language look like if every keyword was in Hangul (the Korean writing system)?
Han is the result. It's a statically-typed language written in Rust with a full compiler pipeline (lexer → parser → AST → interpreter + LLVM IR codegen).
It supports arrays, structs with impl blocks, closures, pattern matching, try/catch, file I/O, module imports, a REPL, and a basic LSP server.
This is a side project, not a "you should use this instead of Python" pitch.
Feedback on language design, compiler architecture, or the Korean keyword choices is very welcome.

Show HN: Zap Code – AI code generator that teaches kids real HTML/CSS/JS
Zap Code generates working HTML/CSS/JS from plain English descriptions, designed for kids ages 8-16.
The core loop: kid types "make a space shooter game", AI generates the code, live preview renders it immediately. Three interaction modes - visual-only tweaks, read-only code view with annotations, and full code editing with AI autocomplete.
Technical details: Next.js frontend, Node.js backend, Monaco editor simplified for younger users, sandboxed iframe for preview execution (no external API calls from generated code). Progressive complexity engine uses a skill model to decide when to surface more advanced features.
Main thing that was focused on was the gap between block-based coding (Scratch, etc.) and actual programming. Block tools are great for ages 6-10 but the transition to real code is rough. This tries to smooth that curve by letting kids interact with real output first, then gradually exposing the code behind it.
Limitations: AI-generated code isn't always clean or idiomatic. Content is filtered for age-appropriateness but its not perfect. Collaboration features are still basic. The complexity engine needs more data to tune well.
Free tier, 3 projects. Pro at $9.99/mo.

Show HN: Vanilla JavaScript refinery simulator built to explain job to my kids
Hi HN,
I’m a chemical engineer and I manage logistics at a refinery down in Texas. Whenever I try to explain downstream operations to people outside the industry (including my kids), I usually get blank stares. I wanted to build something that visualizes the concepts and chemistry of a plant without completely dumbing down the science, so I put together this 5-minute browser game.Here's a low-key runthrough: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=is-moBz6upU
. I pushed to get through a full product pathway to show the V-804 replay.I am not a software developer by trade, so I relied heavily on LLMs (Claude, Copilot, Gemini) to help write the code. What started as a simple concept turned into a 9,000-line single-page app built with vanilla HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I used Matter.js for the 2D physics minigames.A few technical takeaways from building this as a non-dev:
* Managing the LLM workflow: Once the script.js file got large, letting the models output full file rewrites was a disaster (truncations, hallucinations, invisible curly-quote replacements that broke the JS). I started forcing them to act like patch files, strictly outputting "Find this exact block" and "Replace with this exact block." This was the only way to maintain improvements without breaking existing logic.* Mapping physics to CSS: I wanted the minigames to visually sit inside circular CSS containers (border-radius: 50%). Matter.js doesn't natively care about your CSS. Getting the rigid body physics to respect a dynamic, responsive DOM boundary across different screen sizes required running an elliptical boundary equation (dx * dx) / (rx * rx) + (dy * dy) / (ry * ry) > 1 on every single frame. Maybe this was overkill to try to handle the resizing between phones and PCs.* Mobile browser events: Forcing iOS Safari to ignore its default behaviors (double-tap zoom, swipe-to-scroll) while still allowing the user to tap and drag Matter.js objects required a ridiculous amount of custom event listener management and CSS (touch-action: manipulation; user-select: none;). I also learned that these actions very easily kill the mouse scroll making it very frustrating for PC users. I am hoping I hit a good middle ground.* State management: Since I didn't use React or any frameworks, I had to rely on a global state object. Because the game jumps between different phases/minigames, I ran into massive memory leaks from old setInterval loops and Matter.js bodies stacking up. I had to build strict teardown functions to wipe the slate clean on every map transition.The game walks through electrostatic desalting, fractional distillation, hydrotreating, catalytic cracking, and gasoline blending (hitting specific Octane and RVP specs).It’s completely free, runs client-side, and has zero ads or sign-ups. I'd appreciate any feedback on the mechanics, or let me know if you manage to break the physics engine. Happy to answer any questions about the chemical engineering side of things as well.For some reason the URL box is not getting recognized, maybe someone can help me feel less dumb there too.

Launch HN: Sentrial (YC W26) – Catch AI Agent Failures Before Your Users Do
Hey HN! We're Neel and Anay, and we’re building Sentrial (https://sentrial.com
.
When agents fail, choose wrong tools, or blow cost budgets, there's no way to know why - usually just logs and guesswork. As agents move from demos to production with real SLAs and real users, this is not sustainable.Neel and I lived this, building agents at SenseHQ and Accenture where we found that debugging agents was often harder than actually building them. Agents are untrustworthy in prod because there’s no good infrastructure to verify what they’re actually doing.In practice this looks like: - A support agent that began misclassifying refund requests as product questions, which meant customers never reached the refund flow. - A document drafting agent that would occasionally hallucinate missing sections when parsing long specs, producing confident but incorrect outputs. There’s no stack trace or 500 error and you only figure this out when a customer is angry.We both realized teams were flying blind in production, and that agent native monitoring was going to be foundational infrastructure for every serious AI product. We started Sentrial as a verification layer designed to take care of this.How it works: You wrap your client with our SDK in only a couple of lines. From there, we detect drift for you: - Wrong tool invocations - Misunderstood intents - Hallucinations - Quality regressions over time. You see it on our platform before a customer files a ticket.There’s a quick mcp set up, just give claude code: claude mcp add --transport http Sentrial https://www.sentrial.com/docs/mcp
We have a free tier (14 days, no credit card required). We’d love any feedback from anyone running agents whether they be for personal use or within a professional setting.We’ll be around in the comments!

Ask HN: Have top AI research institutions just given up on the idea of safety?
I understand there's a difference between the stated values and actual values of individuals and organizations, and so I want to ask this in the most pragmatic and consequentialist way.I know that labs, institutions, and so on have safety teams. I know the folks doing that work are serious and earnest about that work. But at this point are these institutions merely pandering to the notion of safety with some token level of investment? In the way that a Casino might fund programs to address gambling addiction.I'm an outsider and can only guess. Insider insight would be very appreciated.

Show HN: Script Snap – Extract code from videos
Hi HN, I'm lmw-lab, the builder behind Script Snap.The Backstory:
I built this out of pure frustration. A while ago, I was trying to figure out a specific configuration for a project, and the only good resource I could find was a 25-minute YouTube video. I had to scrub through endless "smash the like button" intros and sponsor reads just to find a single 5-line JSON payload.I realized I didn't want an "AI summary" of the video; I just wanted the raw code hidden inside it.What's different:
There are dozens of "YouTube to Text" summarizers out there. Script Snap is different because it is explicitly designed as a technical extraction engine.It doesn't give you bullet points about how the YouTuber feels. It scans the transcript and on-screen visuals to extract specifically:Code snippetsTerminal commandsAPI payloads (JSON/YAML)Security warnings (like flagging sketchy npm installs)It strips out the "vibe" and outputs raw, formatted Markdown that you can copy straight into your IDE.Full disclosure on the launch: Our payment processor (Stripe) flagged us on day one (banks seem to hate AI tools), so I've pivoted to a manual "Concierge Alpha" for onboarding. The extraction engine is fully operational, just doing things the hard way for now.I'd love to hear your thoughts or harsh feedback on the extraction quality!

Show HN: Scanned 1927-1945 Daily USFS Work Diary
My great-grandfather Reuben P. Box was a US Forest Ranger in Northern California, and I've got his daily work diary from 1927-1945, through the depression, WWII, Conservation Corps, and lots of forest fires. I've scanned the entire thing, had Claude help with transcription, indexing, and web site building, and put the whole thing here:https://forestrydiary.com/
This is one of those projects I've sat on for years, but with Claude and Mistral helping with the handwriting recognition, and even helping me write a custom scanning app that would auto scan each page and put it into a database as I assembled everything.As far as I know, this is the only US Forestry Diary that has been fully scanned in and published. I understand that there are other diaries in some collections, but none have been scanned in. I hope this helps somebody. Please let me know if it does.This is the sort of project Claude and AI can help with - A personal project that sits on the shelf forever, but now a reasonable project that can be published in my spare time. I'm not trying to earn money on this, but just improving our knowledge and history just a little bit.

Launch HN: Omnara (YC S25) – Run Claude Code and Codex from Anywhere
Hey y’all, Kartik, Ishaan, and Christian from Omnara (https://www.omnara.com/
We started using Claude Code early last year and quickly ran into a pattern: agents could work for long stretches on their own, but progress would stall whenever they needed follow-up input. If that happened while we were away from our desks, everything just paused. We looked at remote agent solutions like Codex Web and Devin, which were the main options at the time, but they ran in remote VMs, and we wanted our coding agent to run in our own environment. Our first attempt at solving this was a lightweight wrapper that streamed messages from the Claude Code CLI to a mobile app, but that approach ended up being fragile and hard to maintain.As the Claude Agent SDK matured, it gave us enough control to rewrite Omnara from scratch and run the agent loop directly. We chose to build a GUI across web and mobile instead of a TUI or CLI, because we think GUIs are generally more ergonomic for working with agents and code, especially on mobile. We still preserve the main strength of CLIs and TUIs: running anywhere, including on headless machines.Omnara keeps that property by running a small headless daemon on the user’s machine (or a remote VM) that hosts the agent loop. The daemon maintains an authenticated, outbound WebSocket connection to our server, which relays messages between the agent running on the user’s machine and any connected web or mobile clients. Because the daemon only makes outbound connections, there’s no need for exposed ports, SSH access, or tunneling on the user’s machine.In our first version of Omnara, users liked that agent sessions ran in their own environment, but they still depended on the machine staying online. Some users ran Omnara on a remote machine that stayed up, which worked well for them, though most still did most of their work on laptops. In the current version, Omnara can continue an agent session in a hosted remote sandbox when your local machine goes offline.The conversation state of an agent is already persisted on our server, and you can optionally enable cloud syncing for the working code. When syncing is enabled, Omnara creates git commits at each turn in the conversation and pushes them to our server, so execution can resume from the same state regardless of whether it continues locally or in the cloud. If you continue working in a remote sandbox, you can later pull any changes back into your local environment when you return to your machine. Environment parity in the sandbox isn’t perfect yet, but in practice, missing dependencies are usually easy to resolve by asking the agent to install them.Another thing we learned from using the initial version of Omnara is that mobile is fine for quick interactions, but not great for extended back-and-forth. Users asked for a hands-free way to keep agents moving while walking, driving, or doing something else, which led us to add a voice agent. Coming from more traditional software engineering backgrounds, we honestly thought coding by talking to a voice agent would be gimmicky and added it mostly as a fallback.What surprised us is how useful the voice agent ended up being in practice. When working with coding agents, being redundant and overly explicit usually helps, and people naturally give more detail when speaking than when typing. Going back and forth with the agent as the conversation unfolds tends to produce a much more solid plan than trying to one-shot it with a prompt (this could technically also be done over text, but talking and iterating over voice feels easier and more natural). It’s also just fun. Talking through an idea with an agent while out on a walk is a lot more enjoyable than staring at a terminal screen.To try it out, open your terminal and download Omnara with curl -fsSL https://omnara.com/install/install.sh | bash
then run omnara inside any git repository. This starts a headless Claude Code or Codex session in that repo, which immediately appears in the Omnara web and mobile apps. From there, you can continue that session or start new ones remotely (with or without worktrees) and switch between the web and mobile clients without interrupting the agent.Omnara is free for 10 agent sessions per month, then $20/month for unlimited sessions. When agents run in your own environment, you can use your existing Claude or Codex subscription, so there’s no need to pay us for additional tokens. If you use Claude Code or Codex, we’d love to hear your feedback on Omnara!
