Show HN: Sigmajp – Integrated Japanese Reader

I always recommend yomitan and Anki to other intermediate Japanese learners, and if they try it they love it, but they only try it if I set it up for them.I combined an epub reader with a Japanese text parser and dictionary so that tap-to-lookup a word works with no setup. Then I added flash card creation and spaced repetition reviews. And a built-in 'explain' button that asks an LLM to translate and explain the grammar for a sentence. You can also ask follow-up questions after that.I know it's all stuff that exists already, but I hope putting it together will make it more accessible to people, because this is really the method that got me to pass N2 without grinding practice tests. Happy to hear any feedback, and if you want to test out an app build just lmk! Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50361289 Points: 1 # Comments: 0

Show HN: Rendering 3D Models in the Terminal

This is something that I've been making for a little under a year now. It has support for the new stuff like Kitty Graphics Protocol and Sixel, but still has fallbacks for terminals that don't support those. Also has textures, animations, wireframe, keyboard and mouse controls, and neovim support.https://github.com/Murat65536/dcat https://github.com/Murat65536/dcat.nvim Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50361230 Points: 2 # Comments: 0

Former Joonko CEO Pleads Guilty to Securities Fraud: False Customer and Revenue Statements Result in Personal Liability for the Founder

Joonko’s former CEO, Ilit Raz, pleaded guilty in October 2026 to federal securities fraud for misrepresenting to investors about the company’s customers, revenue, and AI capabilities, thereby fraudulently securing approximately $27 million in funding. He faces up to 20 years in prison. This case underscores that falsifying key business metrics can result in personal legal liability, and that directors and officers (D&O) insurance provides limited coverage in instances of established fraud.

Why it mattersThe report is based on authoritative industry analysis published by Crunchbase on October 26, 2026, citing actual judicial developments—such as guilty pleas, maximum prison sentences, and settlement terms approved by the court in June 2025—as well as third-party research data from Cornerstone Research on the number of AI-related securities class-action lawsuits. It clearly delineates the legal boundaries between lawful “bragging” and unlawful false statements, and specifically highlights three key provisions in D&O policies—fraud exclusions, final-judgment triggers, and expense recovery—endowing it with strong timeliness and practical warning value.

This year’s 1024 may be the last Programmer’s Day.

Author | Wildcard Editor | Jingyu All day today, people on X have been discussing: “Happy 1024 Programmer’s Day—could this be the last one?” Coincidentally, the date fell on a Saturday. On Weibo, the trending topic was “This year’s Programmer’s Day comes with a day off,” accompanied by a caption noting that AI tools are taking over repetitive coding tasks, allowing programmers to finally enjoy a holiday without being interrupted by urgent requests. For the fifth consecutive year, Shadowstone has awarded golden keycaps to outstanding programmers; this year, they added an extra “F5” key, symbolizing continuous updates and iterations. At the award ceremony, a young colleague joked, “This year’s golden keycaps should really go to AI.” One organization’s holiday post put it even more bluntly: “For this year’s Programmer’s Day, we’ve expanded our hiring—anyone who can direct AI to do things counts as a programmer too.” Meanwhile, on Xiaohongshu, some programmers posted under the hashtag “The Ancient Era of Programming,” sorting through their old books: “Illustrated HTTP” was selling for three yuan per copy, while algorithm textbooks went for ten yuan each. Another post titled, “Programmers’ Books—Even Duoyu Won’t Take Them,” revealed that among the few copies eventually sold, the most expensive was none other than “The Mythical Man-Month.” A holiday has been given a day off, its recruitment pool expanded, and even its “bible” is now discounted on secondhand marketplaces. Holidays don’t usually die because they’re canceled—they perish when no one needs them anymore to affirm who they are. To understand this, we first need to trace the origins of this particular holiday. 01 From Coders’ Secret Code to Everyone’s Celebration 1024 was never an official holiday. Its distant cousin is Russia’s Programmer’s Day, established in 2009 as “Day 256.” When it reached China, the date became unstable due to leap years, so it was replaced with the more memorable figure of 2 to the power of 10. Around 2015, October 24 gradually became the de facto “Programmer’s Day.” This was once a secret code known only within the developer community. Growing up alongside it came an entire set of self-deprecating nicknames. Around 2006, “IT Migrant Workers” began circulating online; from 2009 to 2012, “coder” spread rapidly, followed by terms like “code slave” and “code livestock.” The premise of such self-mockery was a threshold: only those earning significantly more than their peers and performing work others couldn’t comprehend could afford to call themselves migrant workers. In 2021, China’s Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security included software professionals in its statistical category of “New‑Generation Migrant Workers,” prompting programmers to flood social media with posts like “Coders Really Have Become Farmers”—a tone marked more by amusement than anger. Then, this secret code stepped out of its niche. In 2020, CSDN

AI Graveyard: A Continuously Updated List of Failed AI Projects and Startups

TechCrunch reported on October 25, 2026, reviewing several AI projects from 2023 to 2026 that failed to meet expectations, including startups and products such as Relay, Character.ai, Sora, and Humane AI Pin, as well as failed attempts or major adjustments by major companies like OpenAI, Apple, and Microsoft.

Why it mattersThis report provides an industry‑wide, phenomenon‑driven overview, with broad coverage and a clear timeline (including specific shutdown or delay dates), and cites S&P Global Market Intelligence data to substantiate the high attrition rate—42%—of enterprise‑level AI projects. It combines detailed case studies with structural analysis, making it a highly valuable reference.
