Ask HN: What's your workflow for finding project names with available domains?

Sun, 04/20/2025 - 4:54am

When building side projects, I constantly hit this snag: brainstorm a good name -> check domain availability (ideally .com/ai/io) -> find it's taken -> repeat. This iteration loop is frustrating and slows down the start of a project.

I'm considering building a tool to streamline the process and I am curious to evaluate external interest for something like this.

Is this a common pain point for others here? What's your current workflow for naming projects and checking domain availability, and how often does this issue disrupt you?

Ask HN: Why Y outube is better than Y Combinator

Sun, 04/20/2025 - 4:40am

Creative and technical minds are here too, yet content is repetitive, uneducational, less of fun.

There can't be anything innovative in computer tech, unless someone designs an abstract concept on computer to make other concepts obsolete.

Programming language are not innovation.

Frameworks are not innovation.

Display systems were once an innovation but forgotten.

Monitor is not output device, but also an input device. Invention of pointer.

AI, Neural networks are inverse law of function. That's not innovation.

Voice: we know that already. Why explain so much?

Me: I abstained from using social networks, then from educational networks, then from phone. It changed what I was able to create.

The power and quality of creation is same, but noise can tamper it.

Here is my creation out of an experiment of not feeding information to brain.

It forced brain to create the missing dopamine kick, by creating it's own kick.

Show HN: LLM Shell Tools – AI-powered command line helpers(open source + local)

Sun, 04/20/2025 - 4:04am

Hey HN,

I ve been playing around with LLM integrations for the shell and I have a tiny set of shell tools that use LLMs to improve my CLI experience. I’ve been using it while building and it’s already proving usefu to me.

Right now it includes:

1. Command Not Found Hook Catches “command not found” errors and asks an LLM to suggest what might have gone wrong (e.g. typos, missing tools, etc), works for bash and zsh 2. Git Commit LLM A wrapper for git commit that suggests clearer commit messages based on your staged changes. It’s helped me avoid a bunch of lazy messages like “fix stuff”.

Prereqs: • OpenAI API key • Bash or Zsh • curl and jq

Still minimal and hacky—but I’d love feedback or ideas. Especially curious if others would find this helpful or have feature suggestions.
