Show HN: Emdash – Slack/Zoom alternative for distributed team collaboration

Hi HN, I’m Phil, one of the co-founders building emdash. Previously, I was an early engineer at Facebook and led Customer Products at Square.

We’ve focused on making chat and video work together so distributed teams can stay aligned without drowning in information. You can try it here: https://emdash.io.

It frustrated us how easily important conversations would happen and then disappear. Slack never quite matched how we worked. Channels wer

‘Everyone wants to be a content creator’: Gen Alpha’s dream job? YouTuber

It used to be that if you asked a classroom of kids what they want to be when they grow up, you’d get answers like “firefighter” and “astronaut.” These days, Gen Alpha dreams of becoming content creators.

A survey of 910 U.S. Gen Alpha kids (ages 12 to 15) by social commerce platform Whop found that nearly a third want to be YouTubers, while one in five aspire to become TikTok creators. Content creation isn’t th

Show HN: I got laid off from Meta and created a minor hit on Steam

I was at FB/Meta from late 2013 to early 2023, mostly working in the compiler/runtime spaces. I got hit in the spring 2023 layoff wave. I immediately started making games in my newfound free time (a lifelong interest, and I even worked in AA(A?) back ca. ~2000), and in October 2023 I stumbled upon the idea of a roguelike pachinko/plinko game inspired by Luck Be A Landlord. Things snowballed quickly, I started talking to publishers, then worked like crazy through all of 2024, almost the harde

ForeverVM: Run AI-generated code in stateful sandboxes that run forever

Hey HN!

We started Jamsocket a few years ago as a way to run ephemeral servers that last for as long as a WebSocket connection. We sandboxed those servers, so with the rise of LLMs we started to see people use them for arbitrary code execution.

In particular, it felt clunky for app developers to have to think about sandboxes
