New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: A memory database that forgets, consolidates, and detects contradiction

Show HN: A memory database that forgets, consolidates, and detects contradiction 9 by pranabsarkar | 2 comments on Hacker News. Vector databases store memories. They don't manage them. After 10k memories, recall quality degrades because there's no consolidation, no forgetting, no conflict resolution. Your AI agent just gets noisier. YantrikDB is a cognitive memory engine — embed it, run it as a server, or connect via MCP. It thinks about what it stores: consolidation collapses duplicate memories, contradiction detection flags incompatible facts, temporal decay with configurable half-life lets unimportant memories fade like human memory does. Single Rust binary. HTTP + binary wire protocol. 2-voter + 1-witness HA cluster via Docker Compose or Kubernetes. Chaos-tested failover, runtime deadlock detection (parking_lot), per-tenant quotas, Prometheus metrics. Ran a 42-task hardening sprint last week — 1178 core tests, cargo-fuzz targets, CRDT property tests, 5 ops runbooks. Live...

New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: GovAuctions lets you browse government auctions at once

Show HN: GovAuctions lets you browse government auctions at once 24 by player_piano | 14 comments on Hacker News. I've long been into finding deals on government auction sites (seizures, surplus sales etc.) - right now for example San Diego DHS is selling 26 tons of lead shot, with bidding starting at $1,000 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It has historically been extremely tedious though: scanning dozens of janky sites which have interminable page loading times; back buttons take you all the way back to the homepage etc. The site I built - GovAuctions - lets you search every government surplus auction at once. You can filter by location, category, and price, save items to a watchlist, and get alerts when new auctions match what you're looking for. Let me know what you think, if you have any suggestions, and if you find any deals in your area!
