What it does

Supported Source helps maintainers sell commercial licenses to the companies that depend on their projects. You deserve to make money selling your project to companies. Supported Source gives you the legal, billing, and procurement help to make you successful. No, it's Supported Source. Commercial users buy a license, while hobbyists still use it freely. Your source code is still available on GitHub or GitLab. Open in spirit, sustainable in practice. No, you bump the version number and update your LICENSE file so it sends users to Supported Source for commercial licensing. Your code, branding, and community stay where they are. No setup fees, no monthly minimum. It's just a small percentage…from supso.org

    Recently several AI labs have published experiments where they tried to get AI coding agents to complete large software projects. - Cursor attempted to make a browser from scratch: https://cursor.com/blog/scaling-agents - Anthropic attempted to make a C Compiler: https://www.anthropic.com/engineering/building-c-compiler I have been wondering if there are software packages that can be easily reproduced by taking the available test suites and tasking agents to work on projects until the existing test suites pass. After playing with this concept by having…

    I just published an open-source protein and ligand viewer. Goal: fast and easy-to-use. Long-term: It's a platform for docking and molecular dynamics. The basic functionality for viewing and inspecting work. I'm currently working on Coot-like electron-density viewing. I'm gradually splitting it into standalone libs, published to crates.io. Some are up already, others are integrated, and will be split off when sufficiently mature and decoupled. Uses parallel execution when able, through thread pools (Rayon), CPU SIMD and Cuda. The default control scheme is non-standard, unless you play video…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
