Launch HN: Hebbian Robotics (YC S26) – Build scalable robotics data pipelines

Hi HN, we’re Brandon and Kingston, the founders of Hebbian Robotics. We built HFlow (https://github.com/Hebbian-Robotics/hflow), an SDK that turns multimodal recordings from robots and human operators into standardized, quality-checked episodes and queryable dataset manifests. A recording can contain synchronized video, joint states, actions, timestamps, and metadata, and HFlow processes those streams together.Here’s a demo of HFlow in action: https://www.youtube.co

Show HN: Decispher – persistent engineering context and memory for coding agents

Hello HN,I'm Ali, building Decispher.The problem we're working on is that coding agents repeatedly rediscover context that already exists inside an engineering organization.A developer working on a feature can combine information from previous PRs, Jira tickets, Slack discussions, ownership boundaries, architectural decisions and their own experience. Coding agents usually start with a prompt and a repository, then spend tokens searching for that same context—or miss it entirely.Decisp

Ask HN: A translation pipeline that doesn't chew up long HTML pages

My site has 1000+ HTML pages. Most of the content is AI-drafted and poured into templates, so pages tend to be long and full of repeated structural markup instead of hand-written one-offs.Feed a long HTML page straight to an LLM for translation and it doesn't just mistranslate. It silently drops content. Whole sections vanish, paragraphs get summarized instead of translated, and the longer the page, the worse it gets. You get back something that looks like a translation but is missing half

Show HN: Corporate Mind Games – logic puzzles with a sarcastic corporate theme

I have always enjoyed building and playing puzzles. I am a regular user of NYT Games and LinkedIn Games. I thought it would be fun to create some corporate-themed puzzles as a silly alternative to LinkedIn Games.So, I built Corporate Mind Games. The games are intended to be a little bit sassy and sarcastic, but I hope they are enjoyable and challenging.I was planning to post this on HN last week. However, many years ago, I made a game called Don't Wordle, which unexpectedly appeared on the

Show HN: Darwin-VM – run the latest iOS and macOS in QEMU

For the past few months, I've been building support for running the latest SPTM-based versions of iOS and macOS into qemu. The idea is to create a lightweight barebones environment for playing around with / debugging XNU and low-level Darwin internals, kind of like a tiny busybox Linux system except running Darwin, and using an emulated Apple Silicon CPU (custom instructions/ privilege levels and all).With darwin-vm, you can directly boot the system using just an iOS/ macOS k

Show HN: Sesame - a local-first, open-source password manager

I have been working on Sesame, an open-source password manager that keeps your vault local by default. You don&#x27;t need an account to create or use a vault, and the hosted service never receives the vault itself. It&#x27;s still early software and the independent security review isn&#x27;t finished yet, so I am mainly interested in feedback, testing, and people looking through the code.<p>(Linux support is yet to be released on v0.1.2, but currently is in the works.)
