New ask Hacker News story: Auto-exist – Flow-state induction via raw mouse input (a biohacking experiment)

Auto-exist – Flow-state induction via raw mouse input (a biohacking experiment) 2 by rejabusafint | 0 comments on Hacker News. I spent a lot of time analyzing motor execution, hand tension, and focus degradation during continuous mouse work and gaming. I realized that conscious micro-adjustments cause fatigue and pull you out of focus. To solve this, I developed a technique called "auto-exist" to minimize conscious intervention during mouse usage. I built Intend System to test whether pointer movement could become completely subconscious right from the start. It worked—the core click task is driven by the subconscious from the very beginning, making the movement feel mostly automated. The best part is that you feel the game is being auto-played by the app, effortlessly locking you into a deep flow-state. (For those unfamiliar: Flow-state is a mental zone of peak focus where overthinking stops, reactions become effortless reflexes, and complex actions no longer drain your m...

Ask HN: How do people self host email and maintain deliverability? 3 by smithbob | 3 comments on Hacker News. I wanted to self host my email and decided to rent a VPS. I made sure the ipv4 address was on no blacklist. My domain uses a good TLD with a long domain history. I set up SPF, DKIM, DMARC, reverse IP DNS, etc. I sent 3 emails to my personal outlook/hotmail accounts, all of which went to spam. 1 day later, my IP was banned. Outlook support said they cannot discuss the reason for the ban and will not unban it so I'm out of luck. I know I can just pay a provider $5/month and get email, but there is something about having full control over your own email. Is there anything much I can do?

Ask HN: What router will remain secure during the vulnpocalypse? 4 by nonfunctional | 2 comments on Hacker News. Hi, Curious about what kind of router I should get to be safe with all the vulnerabilities being discovered. I'm thinking something running OpenWRT makes sense, since that's open source and likely to receive updates quickly going forward. Does anyone have any recommendations?

New ask Hacker News story: Tell HN: Claude CLI doesn't exit anymore, not even with CTRL-C

Tell HN: Claude CLI doesn't exit anymore, not even with CTRL-C 5 by cromka | 0 comments on Hacker News. So I found myself surprised today that exiting the CLI with CTRL-C does not, in fact, close Claude CLI. What it does is it closes the agent's terminal interface, but it leaves a background process active, even if you didn't work on anything at all. Try it yourself: run claude, exit to main conversations list, close it immediately with CTRL-C or /exit, then `ps ax|grep claude`. Apparently it's not a bug, it's a "feature", introduced earlier this year. You need to disable Agent View (https://ift.tt/S2sCdQn, disableAgentView in settings.json) to stop that behavior. But then you lose the ability to open the list all your chats in main view, effectively crippling it. This is yet another frustrating anti-pattern they introduce and it personally upsets me that 5 decades of established paradigms (CTRL-C is CTRL-C!) continue to be thrown out of the window ju...

Ask HN: Should HN add a "Show AI" prefix for AI-related or AI-assisted projects? 2 by wslh | 4 comments on Hacker News. Would a “Show AI” prefix help people find projects built with or assisted by AI? Or would it add noise? Curious what others think.

Biggest pet peeve of FPGA toolchains 2 by vWijdaan | 0 comments on Hacker News. I’m interested - what’s everyone’s most hated features of AMD/Intel FPGA toolchains? I was having a discussion with my colleagues, for us it’s the overcrowded UI. So many cluttered buttons and features, half of which we never use… We were debating about what the most hated features would be in the wider FPGA community. Tell me your thoughts!

Ask HN: How does your help desk verify someone before resetting MFA? 3 by ovudus | 0 comments on Hacker News. Seeing more breaches start with a convincing call to the help desk. Curious what actually works for remote staff and contractors, where nobody can vouch for the caller.
