Dear Americans, please don’t take this the wrong way - I love the US, have friends there, and treasure memories I made there.<p>However, it seems plausible that the US is turning into a rogue, authoritarian, Russia-like state increasingly more friendly towards Russia and hostile towards Europe. I am a European who grew up in a country still occupied by Russia. I am increasingly more worried about building my projects on American platforms, using an American operating system, etc.<p>What if the US actually attacks Greenland or finds another way to be openly hostile to Europe? I am not saying it will happen. All I am saying is that it seems prudent to prepare. How would you do it?<p>It is currently impossible to unhook myself from the US, but I would like to minimize exposure.<p>I can’t do anything about things like building an alternative to VISA&#x2F;MasterCard (except wait for the digital Euro), so I will focus on things I can actually do and ignore things like my government buying F-35s and possibly giving my health data to Palantir.<p>* Mobile phone - there are no real European alternatives; it’s just Apple vs Google. Samsung or HTC with Android seems like a less bad option.<p>* Operating system - I have been using Linux for ages, getting rid of Windows seems relatively easy.<p>* Social networks - I grew to hate them before the current US admin, never used TikTok or Instagram, and I mostly stopped using Facebook and Twitter around the time Musk bought Twitter.<p>* Stripe for payments - this will be hard, but I am experimenting with our local payment processor, and so far it seems surprisingly doable, but it is not a battle-tested solution like Stripe.<p>* Clerk authentication - doable, but a lot of work and worrying<p>* AWS - I had a surprisingly bad experience with AWS and switched to a local provider with a lot less functionality (that I mostly do not need) and a lot better support<p>* GitHub, Cloudflare... dear God, how could we Europeans allow ourselves to be that dependent on anyone? Everything I touch is American.<p>* Gmail - this will be hard (two decades of emails). Any advice?<p>* Anything AI-related - fuuu, I am lost here.<p>What am I missing&#x2F;forgetting? What do&#x2F;would you do in my place?<p>I really hope you will take this as a brainstorming exercise and not an attack on America. I really do love the US and hope its democracy turns out to be more resilient than it currently seems.<p>EDIT: Please kindly keep responses practical. Let’s not turn this into a political discussion. You might approach it as a “what if” exercise, even if you think what the current US admin is doing is great, Europeans deserve what they get, etc.

Hi HN,<p>I’ve been working on Flowscape, a 2D canvas engine focused on building interactive editors and visual tools. It provides low-level control over scenes, nodes, and interactions without enforcing a specific UI or workflow.<p>The goal is to give developers a flexible foundation for custom editors, diagrams, and canvas-based interfaces. I’d love feedback on the API design, architecture, and real-world use cases.<p>Demo: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;flowscape-ui.github.io&#x2F;core-sdk&#x2F;?path=&#x2F;story&#x2F;interactive-playground--interactive-playground" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;flowscape-ui.github.io&#x2F;core-sdk&#x2F;?path=&#x2F;story&#x2F;interac...</a> GitHub: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Flowscape-UI&#x2F;core-sdk" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Flowscape-UI&#x2F;core-sdk</a>

We&#x27;re releasing the next-gen Ralph Wiggum architecture - agent clusters with independent validator agents with clear rejection mandates. As long as the code is not feature-complete and production-grade, it will not be approved. The result is AI without any need for babysittng.

Hey,<p>Problem: Interface between front and back never match at first try !<p>Setup: 4 agents in parallel: front, back, infra and debug<p>Process: Vibespec the initial need and let&#x27;s the agents work on their domain. I asked to created the interface document before starting but even though I does not worked as expected.. I am spending around 30 minutes to make it match !<p>How you guys are solving this issue ?

I&#x27;ve create a small daily word puzzle based on real UK headlines from the day before. The letters are scrambled and you rebuild the original headline.

As a non technial developer I don&#x27;t know how to test the functionalities of my platform. I always ask cursor to just check if everything works well or not. But Cursor is not God, it is not built for testing. So If i&#x27;m facing this issue then definitely others might also be facing this issue. So I&#x27;m currently working on Rihario with my co-founders to help others like me from UX bugs hell.<p>You paste your URL &gt; a virtual browser opens up along with execution logs &gt; A headless browser runs your site and tests almost everything when it comes UI&#x2F;UX &gt; Generates a report on what has passed the test (standard expections of a product) and what had failed &gt; Generates a prompt to help you resolve those exact errors
