Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (March 2026)
If you operate in the EU and want to avoid heavy fines, this is for you. Once integrated, it allows users to report legal content issues directly to you, which you can then manage via a dedicated dashboard following official EU procedures. Without such a system, users are much more likely to file complaints through official state or EU channels, which can trigger investigations.
Supports only YouTube as the data source, and Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite for processing, but it can easily be tweaked. Runs locally with Docker compose.
The server is a rust binary so you can toss it on any container/computer and connect to it in the app.
My philosophy isn't to replace my other tools I love like emacs, ghostty, etc. But I am taking a stab at "real time code review" and have some crummy magit-like code review built in that I need to revisit.
Today working on adding chat history search (FTS5) and OpenRouter Nano Banana 2 support.
I went through the Software Architecture Patterns for Serverless Systems book, which I think it is fantastic. I learned a lot but I still had a lot of doubts to actually use the ideas in real life. So I started dissecting the companion framework, which is in written in Typescript. I have been going piece by piece and converting to Kotlin which I think it is more expressive (and fun) and it is allowing me to understand how everything fits together.

(Note: Only the macOS version is tested extensively at the moment)
A problem that we had at my last startup was that we got stuck between not wanting to spend too much time on devops, and getting price gouged by Heroku.
We were too big for the deploy to a VPS type options like coolify, but too small to justify hiring a full time Devops.
Eventually a few of us had to just suck it up and learn Kubernetes properly. Was pleasantly surprised how elegant it all was.
I was surprised there wasn’t something that “just worked” and plugged into our Kubernetes cluster, made it user friendly, teams, roles, etc.
I only got to the point of having code and data as \verbatim in \LaTeX. Next step is CWEB.
Here is an example (with C and Rust code in \verbatim)

The ultimate goal is machine and human readable proofs on algorithms.
