m4rkuskk··on Fable 5.2 one-shotted my nephew's dream game
Reminds me a bit of Little Fighter 2.
m4rkuskk··on Claude Opus 5.5 Can Draw Permit-Level Architectural Drawings
I worked almost 15 years in commercial concrete. My day to day tools were Revit and Bluebeam. As a little fun project I built a replica of them and they work surprisingly well. I was able to detail some of my previous jobs in an hour which took me weeks before. It is truly crazy the time we are living in.
m4rkuskk··on Ask HN: CAD for wood working with LLM support?
I'm a developer and a previous commercial concrete superintendent. I built a 3d model designer similar to Autodesk Revit as well as a pdf editor similar to Bluebeam. You can connect MCP to it to build full buildings based of drawings.

Article reads just like my 'AI generated' slob blog posts for better SEO.
m4rkuskk··on Launch HN: Unlayer (YC W22) – Add email and document builders to your app
I had to close the page after 5 seconds, seeing the AI slop.
m4rkuskk··on We made Grok 4.5, GPT-5.5, and Claude build the same apps
That will be in the Part 2 article.
m4rkuskk··on Salesforce to Acquire Fin (formerly Intercom) for $3.6B
I wonder how long it will take for Attio to change their Chat bot away from Fin and remove any mentioning of them
m4rkuskk··on Salesforce to Acquire Fin (formerly Intercom) for $3.6B
Yikes, I dont think there is anything special about Fin. They claim they have their own model but it appears they are just using OpenAi and Claude as well which is hidden in their docs.
m4rkuskk··on Digital Sovereignty Becomes an Imperative as the US Reads Dutch Emails
I was trying to read the article, but those animations kept distracting me.
m4rkuskk··on GitHub Authentication issues related to API requests
I thought I was hacked this morning... Nope just Github being github...
m4rkuskk··on How we index images for RAG
Its an ad for their product. There is nothing special about this approach and probably done the same way by everyone else.
m4rkuskk··on DeepSeek reasonix, DeepSeek native coding agent with high caching and low cost
Claude design AI slob.
m4rkuskk··on Mike: open-source legal AI
No way they got that many stars in that little time. buy.fans must run a special right now.
m4rkuskk··on AI should elevate your thinking, not replace it
Before AI I would spend multiple days mapping out my database tables and queries while now I ask AI to propose multiple different approaches and I pick the best one. But then on the other hand I’m working on 10 features at the same time and have to carefully look through them. But I can see that I’m totally dependent on the AI now. Creating a full plan by yourself feels like a waste of time, since you know the AI can create the same or better plan in a split second. So when Claude is down, I end up not being productive at all.
m4rkuskk··on Workspace Agents in ChatGPT
OpenAI and Anthropic are killing startups and mature companies left and right. They will always have the cost advantage.
m4rkuskk··on Who Killed the Florida Orange?
From the store bought orange juices, I think the Trader joes one is the closest to tasting like fresh-squeezed.
m4rkuskk··on Show HN: A tiny macOS app that clears app caches and NPM/Docker/Xcode junk
Can you include .next and .turbo folders. Mine were 300gb large.
m4rkuskk··on Kimi K2.6: Advancing open-source coding
I have been testing it in my app all morning, and the results line up with 4.6 Sonnet. This is just a "vibe" feeling with no real testing. I'm glad we have some real competition to the "frontier" models.
m4rkuskk··on Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (April 2026)
https://auxx.ai Yet another "AI CRM" Started over a year ago working on it part time. Its coming together. https://auxx.ai
m4rkuskk··on AI for American-produced cement and concrete
What do you mean by "onsite testing"? Wouldn't this be part of the pre-submittal process?
m4rkuskk··on AI for American-produced cement and concrete
This may work on a small scale, not in most commercial use cases. A typical deck pour (400cy) will pour at 70-80cy/hr. you got 9-10cy/truck. Meaning you have 7 to 8 minutes to back in the truck, empty it into the hopper and leave. You barely have time to add water to the mix. Most high-volume concrete plants are "dry-batch", which means all the ingredients get dumped into the drum and the concrete will get mixed while driving to the project site. Also, changing mixes on the fly will not "fly". No one is going to authorize the adjustment, because what happens when the mix doesn't meet specs... It will need to get chipped out.
m4rkuskk··on AI for American-produced cement and concrete
They are standardized for a given mix. A mix design that is based on a trial badge is submitted to the SEOR prior to pouring anything. The mix design shows the ratios ingredients (cementitious materials, find and coarse aggregates, water, air, admixtures). But Concrete is still a non-homogeneous material with lots of variations. Take for instance aggregates, if it rained the last two weeks, the moisture content will be higher but it may only be a layer on that pile. Same goes for gradation (particle size of the rock). Sometimes you get a batch with smaller rock. There are a 100 things that can go wrong to get bad mud.

But yeah, there are concrete plants that cut corners and try to save on cement (the most expensive part of the mix), which depending on the project may bite them in the ass when they have to pay to fixing it.

m4rkuskk··on The Berlin Startup Scene According to Mattermark Data
I think the author forgot to mention 6wunderkinder, the creators of wunderlist.
m4rkuskk··on The Rise of the Mile-High Building

m4rkuskk··on High-school teen builds one-man submarine for $2,000
It's linear. The surrounding pressure increases by the following: P=γ*h P=pressure (lb/ft^2) h=height (ft) γ=density (lb/ft^3) water = 62.4lb/ft^3 So if he goes down 33ft, the pressure @33ft will be: Total pressure: 62.4x33 = 2059psf (1atm ≈ 2116.21psf)
m4rkuskk··on Show HN: Learn English with movies and TV Shows
I learned English by watching Friends as well. However the thick german accent stayed. It's funny to see how many people in this post have learned english by watching Friends.
m4rkuskk··on Show HN: Subvim – Vim customized to be like SublimeText
Pressing Ctrl-K,D to skip an entry is quite cumbersome, especially if you missed an entry and there is no way of undoing the last selection.
m4rkuskk··on Zip Bomb
In case safari crashes and you won't be able to open it, sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari did it for me.
