New ask Hacker News story: Claude Code limits are starting to feel like a psychological trick

Claude Code limits are starting to feel like a psychological trick 2 by trinsic2 | 3 comments on Hacker News. I signed up for the Claude Code Pro Subscription about a month ago. and I have been really careful about my limits because I burned through them pretty easily about two weeks ago, but this week Im already at 10% and have been barley using it.. Since there is no transparency around the metric for these limits they could easily change the metric and it wouldn't be easy to measure it. I'm thinking about canceling my sub because there is no clear way for me to understand this metric but wanted to see what others thought about this.

Ask HN: How do you handle marketing as a solo technical founder? 4 by lazarkap | 1 comments on Hacker News. I've shipped multiple products over the past few years. Every single one followed the same pattern: build, post, get 12 likes from friends, a bit of organic traction, then nothing. Back to coding a new thing. I know I need marketing help but giving equity to someone I met online feels like a huge risk. At the same time hiring a paid marketer when you have zero revenue feels just as scary. And I'm not dancing on TikTok, that's for sure. Have any of you actually taken on a marketing co-founder? What made you say yes to that person specifically? Was it their track record, the way they pitched, a trial period first?

Zooming UIs in 2026: Prezi, impress.js, and why I built something different 5 by tinchox6 | 0 comments on Hacker News. There are essentially two established ways to use zooming in web interfaces today. They serve different purposes and make different tradeoffs. I built a third one, so I'll try to be fair about what each does well and where it falls short. * Prezi Prezi pioneered the zooming canvas for presentations and remains the market leader in that space. It recently added AI-powered generation and text editing tools. It's a polished product with real traction. But Prezi is a closed platform, not a library. You can't use its zoom engine in your own app. Pricing starts at $15/month for meaningful features, and exporting to PowerPoint flattens all zoom effects into static slides. A recurring complaint from users is that the zooming and panning transitions cause motion sickness. And fundamentally, Prezi uses zoom as a storytelling device between pre-arranged frames. It...

Ask HN: LLM-Based Spam Filter 3 by michidk | 0 comments on Hacker News. Is there a spam filter software out there that connect via IMAP to inboxes and uses LLMs to classify them? I currently use MailWasher Prot but their spam classification is really not that great.

New ask Hacker News story: Ask HN: I don't get why Anthropic is limiting usage

Ask HN: I don't get why Anthropic is limiting usage 2 by ud0 | 4 comments on Hacker News. I’m trying to understand the rationale behind Anthropic limiting certain types of third-party usage, e.g., OpenClaw From a naive perspective, more usage should mean more revenue since customers pay per token. So why restrict it? If a third party is generating heavy usage, isn’t that ultimately beneficial for revenue and growth? What other factors are they considering that are not immediately obvious? If I sold shoes, I'd be happy to sell more regardless of how many resellers are down the chain.
