Hey HN! I'm working on a VSCode fork to work and develop on iOS apps. I'm curious if anyone out here has any experience with building a VSCode fork and has any tips that they'd like to share.

Any and all help is appreciated!

hi hn!

I've worked at some social companies in the past (IG and Snap) and I'm curious as to what the next big social media platform might look like.

It seems to me that social media has already gone through several phases:

- Text-based platforms like early forums and blogs.

- Image-centric networks like Instagram and Snapchat.

- Video-focused apps like TikTok and YouTube (Shorts).

- Community-driven spaces like Reddit and Discord.

Each iteration brought its own unique spin on connecting people and fostering communities. I'm curious as to what the hn community thinks what the next form of interaction would be, or what form of interaction do they feel is missing in their life?

I personally feel that we're missing a form of "authentic sharing". There's a couple of platforms / apps that are trying to solve this problem (IG Stories, BeReal, Poparazzi - before it shut down). People want to connect with others in an authentic, un-filtered, un-staged way and I don't think there's a platform that encourages / enforces that.

But I'm also interested in what you guys think!

I see competitors building similar products on HN, and I see that they're more ahead of me. Sometimes I find it really hard to stay motivated and build

Recently a bill was signed in CA that allowed for alternative license plates subject to DMV and CHP (California Highway Patrol) approval.

I was wondering how I could work with the DMV and CHP to start developing alternative license plates.
