Show HN: Figment – An AI that I made my friends talk to for 2 weeks
For the past 3 weeks, I've been hacking on a personal AI that you can text.
It's curious about you & proactively figures out ways to help you, while still feeling like a friend.
Its personality & proactivity is probably what I've spent the most time working on for this project, testing out a bunch of different models and prompts etc. It has more work to be done for sure, but I kinda like how it's come to be so far!
It has its own 24/7 computer and browser (still working on improving its use of them!), with its own curiosities & proactivity.
For ex, it might decide to surf the web on its own every once in a while, and if it comes across anything that it feels might be interesting to you, it'll text you it.
In the past 2 weeks of my friends using it, I've noticed this particular personal ai setup/harness produce a ton of emergent magical moments that I thought were pretty cool.
For ex, my roommate @aadilpickle signed up 2 weeks ago, told it about sfpursuit.org and his sfalexandria.com project during the onboarding, and then didn't use it much, but after like 3 days, it proactively surfed through these sites, did deeper research into his past work, and texted him asking about his `hamburger phone at flippin burger` project that he once worked on with some friends, which was really cool. he felt that to be really magical and he's been using it since then (mostly for reminders etc). :)
This project is in a very rough/early state, but i'd definitely really love some feedback! :)
I also created a Discord community for this: https://discord.gg/8dGBGg6rXu

Show HN: Free and OSS way to extend client-facing functionality of Linear
Hi HN, I've been working on building this tool for myself and my software dev shop so I can easily share project specific + interactive views with my clients.
Have been slowly adding/improving the platform over the last 9 months and while I'm sure there are still some gaps, it's at a point where it would be nice to share with the community.
As per the domain, the intention for this is to always be 100% free with MIT license.
Current plan is to try and polish the UI to the level of Linear + try and replicate the sync engine experience (as close as possible noting that Linear API is the main bottleneck).
Any feedback is welcome either on here or as an issue :)
