It seems pointless to me to stir up conflict or engage in unnecessary arguments; I have simply expressed my personal view—namely, that I value the utility of artificial intelligence, which I sometimes use to kickstart new projects (projects that can certainly be supplemented with different types of input in the future). I believe this is an innovative, open-minded, and forward-looking approach. If you disagree, you are free to hold your opinion, but I do not share it.

For what it's worth: the feedback in this thread found three real bugs that were fixed, tested and shipped within 24 hours — that's the part of the discussion I care about.

Fair point — I removed that line just now. I'm a solo dev and I use AI for the docs; sometimes it sounds like an ad and I don't catch it. The benchmarks are real though, I ran them all myself. Try the software and tell me if something is wrong.

Yes, I use AI to help me build and write docs — solo dev, I'd be stupid not to. The benchmarks are real though: free Oracle ARM box, my laptop, a cheap VPS. I ran them all myself, including the ones that went badly (they're in the README too).

Show HN: TargetBridge – Use an Intel iMac as a Thunderbolt Display Apple Macs

targetbridge — Sat, 11 Jul 2026 14:03:34 +0000

I built TargetBridge, a free and open-source alternative for using an Intel iMac as a display from an Apple Silicon Mac over Thunderbolt.

It creates a virtual display on the sender and streams it to a receiver app on the iMac. It supports mirror mode, extended desktop, multiple receivers, audio, input relay, and hardware-free receiver smoke tests.

It is a software solution, not Apple Target Display Mode, so it requires a real Thunderbolt connection and macOS Big Sur or newer on the receiver.

New comment by targetbridge in "Show HN: Epiq – Distributed Git based issue tracker TUI"

I know of a few projects that have used Git as a database to parse ETF flow data after extracting it and saving it in JSON or CSV format.

As a web developer, the local web server UI idea sounds like the natural next step. Since you're already using Ink/React for the TUI, the component model should map well to a browser-based UI. The git-as-database approach is elegant — curious to see how it evolves.
