Ask HN: Universal testing machines OEM software needed?

DrNuke — Thu, 20 Nov 2025 19:58:04 +0000

Is anything resembling the Android (for mobile) and the ROS (for robotics) o.s. still needed for legacy and especially new universal testing machines, the likes you use for tensile, compression and a lot more tests of materials? With new and cheap materials being tentatively produced all the time these days, entry level and mid-tier universal testing machines of any form are popping up weekly but software is just... meh.

If you know the fundamentals, AI agents become horses/cars/rockets and you have the reins.

Wasn't "tiny" the magic AI buzzword just 12-18 months ago?

Both… I think subscribers are generally happy for what they get, and there a number of interesting providers. I also can read about a few providers not being happy. Are you on there in some capacity?

Content providers show mixed feelings and different opinions about this widespread, well-regarded subscription platform. Any balanced insight from HNers? Thanks.

DrNuke — Fri, 07 Jan 2022 14:21:51 +0000

Thanks… and you are right, of course! I’m just wishing to suggest them a path towards something fungible or pivotable at the end of the road, whatever their success as entrepreneurs. At the end of the day, it’s their time and their life.

Ask HN: Marginally viable AI-driven ideas for 2022?

DrNuke — Fri, 07 Jan 2022 11:29:13 +0000

Happy New Year folks, I am with three youngsters asking me for AI-driven ideas making sense in 2022. I am not sure I can help: big corps are all over industrial applications, and the internet bubble is so crowded they have no statistical chance with recommenders and content projects. Therefore, their best shot may be looking into something that would come good in two, three or even ten years from now. To put my hat into this, I am thinking of NLP and small robotics for hospices and nursing homes: low cost, low risk, high reward, prospective jobs if they can’t make it as entrepreneurs. Any different ideas? Thanks!

New comment by DrNuke in "Ask HN: My boss doesn't think I'm doing good work, how to proceed?"

DrNuke — Thu, 06 Jan 2022 23:37:00 +0000

I’m afraid the boss’ boss was talking with the wrong part of your team, in that his criticism really seems made for your boss, not you? That said, you were not treated like a novice at all, being given a fair share of high-level feedback. Take it as a nudge to improve and do better, without thinking too much: it will be your manager’s job to assess your output fairly.
