New best story on Hacker News: Warranty Void If Regenerated

Warranty Void If Regenerated 488 by Stwerner | 297 comments on Hacker News. As an experiment I started asking Claude to explain things to me with a fiction story and it ended up being really good, so I started seeing how far I could take it and what it would take to polish it enough to share publicly. Over the last couple months, I've been building world bibles, writing and visual style guides, and other documents for this project… think the fiction equivalent of all the markdown files we use for agentic development now. After that, this was about two weeks of additional polish work to cut out a lot of fluff and a lot of the LLM-isms. Happy to answer any questions about the process too if that would be interesting to anybody.

New best story on Hacker News: Ask HN: Please restrict new accounts from posting

Ask HN: Please restrict new accounts from posting 355 by Oras | 267 comments on Hacker News. I don’t know if I’m the only one, but I see lots of clearly AI generated posts recently in HN and mostly coming from new accounts (green), it is more noticeable in the Show HN section. I wish the team can either restrict new accounts from posting or at least offer a default filtering where I can only see posts from accounts with certain criteria. I don’t want to see HN becoming twitter, which is full of bots and noise, as this would be a really sad day.
