Hey HN!

I just published https://meet.hn, a map to find hackers in your city.

How it works?

Demo of the signup process: https://x.com/meet_hn/status/1834918518904746329

1. Fill the form: username, city+country

2. Copy the text generated in the box below the form, and paste it in your HN description.

3. Click "Add me on the map"

Optionnaly (it's recommended!) you can add links to your socials as well as some tags to showcase your interests.

Why does it exist?

I created this because, despite its harsh reputation on the internet, I love the HN community. I have fewer than a handful of friends who are as curious and eager to think and reflect as the people on HN. Also, the city I currently live in is more focused on industry than on technology and entrepreneurship, which are core to HN.

This led me to want to meet the HN community IRL. After trying `site:news.ycombinator.com/user toulouse` on Google and getting only one result, I decided to create meet.hn.

My first goal with this is to meet at least one HN member in my city: Toulouse, France. If you are ever in the area, hit me up! I'm sirobg at https://meet.hn/city/fr-Toulouse

Additional details:

- meet.hn has a twitter page: https://x.com/meet_hn. If you meet IRL thanks to meet.hn, don't hesitate to tag it with a picture, it would mean the world to me.

- the code is open source: https://github.com/borisghidaglia/meet-hn

- meet.hn integrates with https://at.hn/ from @padolsey (https://padolsey.at.hn/), registered on meet.hn at https://meet.hn/city/cn-Beijing

Finally, many thanks to these people for their help and/or feedbacks! Ordered alphabetically:

Has anyone here solved their “waking up at 3:30am almost every morning for no reason and then falling back asleep in an hour” problem? Thank you in advance.

Is there a code copilot I can run that auto loops failures in unit tests, and after a few failures in a row, tells it to rewrite from scratch?

I know many people in big companies use AI to write unit tests (and I understand that for extreme ranges) but I am looking for using provided "input-output" fairs to develop functions and iterate over test assertion failures.

I use a few current ones but none seem to do this.

I would love even more if there is one I can connect to remotely somehow to insert code (e.g. provide unit test case data) and set it doing tasks. Quite often I am driving home and I think of a good unit test or could finish off some unit test examples before I leave at 5pm and would love the AI to finish that for me for the next day.

What are some good resources about enabling customers to configure B2B SaaS software through BRMS? (Like event-condition-action rules).
