    Hi HN, I hacked together Yurl.ai last week—a bare-bones URL shortener in F# / .NET 9 using a simple CQRS + event-sourcing setup. The gimmick: for each new link, it grabs the page text and asks a small language model to suggest a short, readable slug (4–8 chars). I’m curious whether these model-made names beat the usual random hashes. Tech bits: Actors as aggregates SQLite for both event store and read model Source (MIT): https://github.com/OnurGumus/YURL Live demo: https://yurl.ai (free tier—please be gentle) Happy to hear what you think.
