Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (March 2026)
The problem I kept seeing: freelancers have happy clients but almost no testimonials on their site. Asking is awkward, clients say "sure!" and then never write anything.
SocialProof gives you one shareable link. Client clicks it, fills a short form (name, text, optional photo), you approve it, it embeds anywhere. No login required for the client.
The interesting technical bit: it's entirely on Cloudflare Workers + D1 + Pages. The collection form and embed widget are edge-served globally with no origin server. Been curious whether anyone else is building purely on Cloudflare's stack and what they've run into.
Still pre-revenue (just launched today). If you're a freelancer or run a small agency and have thoughts on how you currently handle testimonials, I'd genuinely love to hear it.
Coffee Roaster Aggregation ETL using fastapi, nextjs, bs4 etc etc. It's been fun, just finished up the oauth for discord that pairs nicely with the info required to make Discord dm notifications function. attempting to charge 6$ for the instant notifications, but doubt many people will be interested. up to 75 roasters and all of them are checked every 10 mins for new products.
Considering reusing the repo as a framework for other industries if this project ever gains any traction. Also was considering adding a goofy rag discord bot to the server just because i love tossing in a rag layer everywhere lately, and feel like i fall a bit short on my filters for stuff like origin/flavor notes and all that junk. Semantic search with solid chunk strategies might create a better solution than if i did get all the filters working as well as possible.
* https://sprout.vision/ - AI generated Go-To-Market Strategy for launching your next venture. I have a Tech background with limited GTM experience, so I experimented with AI to learn about different strategies and decided to turn it into a simple product that will generate a comprehensive plan (500+ pages) to help you launch your next venture. Try it out, would love to hear your feedback, use the HN50 promo code for 50% off your order.
* https://pubdb.com/ - Reviving a 10 year old project, it’s meant to make research publications more accessible to mere mortals with the help of AI. I have lots of ideas I want to try out here but haven’t gotten around to it yet. Currently focused on nailing down the basics with an OCR indexing pipeline and generating AI summaries.
This month I'm focusing on long-pending TODO items: self-benchmarking with Terminal bench (https://www.tbench.ai/), fuzzing the security parsers (it executes shell commands, so the threat model is real), normalizing extended thinking traces across providers, and improving the agent UI/UX and TUI components and harness.
- 2FA, PassKey, and password-based login for folks that hate magic links
- Moved my entire API from GraphQL to REST so I can fully dogfood the API I offer
- Added an audit log as standard on all plans
- Built a terraform provider (https://github.com/OnlineOrNot/terraform-provider-onlineorno...), and a way to download existing config into terraform files
- Started iterating on a CLI (https://github.com/OnlineOrNot/onlineornot)
https://github.com/pmarreck/validate
Written in Zig, it has a C FFI and a CLI for mac/windows/linux.
The purpose of this is to feed into a different project I'm working on that is for-pay.
Right now we are "OpenRouter for Images", with video following this week.
Our north star is creating a broader developer platform for AI media generation that includes observability, with fine-tuned vision models as a judge to monitor production traffic.
We also have a model arena and showdown page that ranks models by task, so you can find the best model for e.g. photorealism: https://lumenfall.ai/leaderboard
Our stack is Rails for the dashboard and Cloudflare Workers (Typescript / Hono) for the engine.
* Telephone handset for my mobile phone with side talk.
* First draft of a book / workbook on Work Flow. Outcrop of the work flow consulting I do, stuff I've learned, and so on.
* Short film script - trying to convince a local actor to play the lead before we lose the rainy season here - otherwise we'll need special effects or just wait until the fall.
* Polishing firmware, OSX, and iOS suite for a wearable neuromodulator unit. Deadline in a week!
* Nmemonic community and app - been poking at this for years and finally had a breakthrough on the UI. My first app to release in the wild, so pretty exciting.
