Show HN: I created a language called AntiLang – breaking all the conventions 8 by SirusCodes | 2 comments on Hacker News. AntiLang is an interpreted programming language written in Go. The basic idea of this is to keep all the logical parts of a language same, but reverse the structure of it. The idea for this project came when I was having a long midnight conversation with my friend and thought of writing such a weird language. The initial draft was far worse than the current implementation; we thought of reversing the brackets and the language would be read from bottom to top. I'm happy that I dropped that idea Technical details: As the interpreter is written in Golang, I compiled it to WASM, and the whole interpreter is running in the browser. For the editor, I'm using Monaco, the same library that powers the text editor in VSCode. I learnt how to build it while reading "Write an Interpreter in Go" by Thorsten Ball. The project is opensourced - https://ift.tt/hD...

Ask HN: Small Ideas vs. Big Ideas? 13 by amukbils | 12 comments on Hacker News. I've been thinking about this one for a while, does it make sense to work on small ideas? Something like a utility a PDF converter or a small game and attempt to make it into an asset generating $10K - $30K in MRR? Or is it better to aim for building something as big as you can? My thinking around that is it's pretty much the same effort to build something small or something big (especially since you have to start small to go big). Might as well go for the big ideas. But curious if others have different views (or similar for that matter)?

Show HN: Sort lines semantically using llm-sort 8 by vagozino | 2 comments on Hacker News. This is a small plugin I made for Simon Willison's llm utility. You can do things like: cat names.txt | llm sort -q "Which one of these names is best for a pet seagull?" cat books.txt | llm sort -q "Which book is more related to basic vs. advanced CS topics?" I see a lot of potential marrying LLMs with classic UNIX interfaces.
