Tell HN: Twilio support replies with hallucinated features (Score: 150+ in 1 day)
Link: https://readhacker.news/c/6EwcL
I was investigating some bug with our voice system and asked support where I can find some debugging information and event logs.
They told me where I should go in the interface to see that and reassured that they checked logs and this event exist.
It turned out these features and information doesn't exist anywhere in the interface and impossible to retrieve in any way. The support message with hallucinated features is mostly AI written.
CEOs tell us AGI is around the corner but in reality it just unreliable information and AI can't even restock the vending machine.
Show HN: I made a heatmap diff viewer for code reviews (Score: 150+ in 8 hours)

Comments: https://readhacker.news/c/6EzWB
0github.com is a pull request viewer that color-codes every diff line/token by how much human attention it probably needs. Unlike PR-review bots, we try to flag not just by "is it a bug?" but by "is it worth a second look?" (examples: hard-coded secret, weird crypto mode, gnarly logic, ugly code).
To try it, replace github.com with 0github.com in any pull-request URL. Under the hood, we split the PR into individual files, and for each file, we ask an LLM to annotate each line with a data structure that we parse into a colored heatmap.
Examples:
https://0github.com/manaflow-ai/cmux/pull/666
https://0github.com/stack-auth/stack-auth/pull/988
https://0github.com/tinygrad/tinygrad/pull/12995
https://0github.com/simonw/datasette/pull/2548
Notice how all the example links have a 0 prepended before github.com. This navigates you to our custom diff viewer where we handle the same URL path parameters as github.com. Darker yellows indicate that an area might require more investigation. Hover on the highlights to see the LLM's explanation. There's also a slider on the top left to adjust the "should review" threshold.
