Iran War Clock is a timeline and tracker of all the official predicted end dates of the war by the current administration.

I was inspired by the cost tracker that was posted the other day. Those numbers are great, but I believe people need some direct insight into what the government is doing and saying. In today’s information environment, it’s challenging to figure out what is valid or current or even just real. This is doubly true when it’s convenient for powerful actors to muddy the waters. This is my attempt to help inform the public about what is actually being said, by whom, and when.

Hopefully the war ends soon, but as we know from the Global War on Terror, mission creep is real and tempting especially when you start a conflict without a clear goal in mind.

With Iran War Clock we’ll at least have a record of each time that happens.

Would love any thoughts/suggestions on how to make this more useful!

Business owners get hundreds of cold messages daily. Yours gets ignored. The approach that actually works: find people already talking about the pain your product solves. Not cold outreach. Not ads. Just being in the right place when someone is already frustrated. Search Reddit, HN, Twitter for people complaining about the exact problem you solve. Slide into that conversation naturally. That's a warm lead who already wants a solution. The best distribution hack isn't marketing. It's being in the right place when someone is already in pain. What's the most effective way you've found your first users?

Something interesting happens in many B2B companies.

Marketing teams generate thousands of leads every month. Dashboards look great, reports look impressive, and campaigns appear successful.

But when sales teams start reaching out, the story often changes. Emails bounce, many contacts never respond, and some people were never serious prospects in the first place.

The result is a huge list of contacts but very few real conversations.

This made me start looking deeper into how companies approach lead generation today. Many tools focus heavily on collecting data, but they don’t necessarily help teams identify the right prospects or decision-makers.

Some tools are designed for prospect discovery, some focus on email verification, and others automate outreach or capture leads from websites. When these pieces aren’t connected properly, businesses end up with volume instead of quality.

I found this breakdown of different lead generation tools and how businesses actually use them across prospecting, verification, and outreach. It explains how these tools fit into the overall lead generation workflow.

Curious to hear how others here approach this problem. Do you focus more on volume of leads, or quality of prospects when building a pipeline?

I was the weakest at maths and still get nightmares about it. After years of trying, shipping, and playing, I realised that rather than turning each concept into a module, it's much better to provide a place where students can apply their learning and see the outcome.

With this, I present Owster Labs. This is a game-based learning module where you go through missions and find solutions. Unlike normal games, this is a very watered-down version of CFD. You have a UAV to work on: understand the situation, prepare your UAV to fly below mountains and evade enemy aircraft. Do your calculations, find the best path, and learn the art of trade-offs and how maths is used in real life.

The system will play the outcome based on your solution and provide feedback. The whole mechanism is focused on making it look great and less fearful for kids.

Kindly try it on your PC and let me know what you think.

Hi HN — I built Gemini Exporter, a Chrome extension for exporting Gemini conversations.

I made it because I wanted a simpler way to save useful Gemini outputs outside the browser for writing, documentation, and reuse later.

You can try it here:

- Chrome extension: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/gemini-exporter-save-gemi/lgipeakgdkcgnkdljeagconfbfeolidj

- Website: https://backrun.co/gemini-exporter

I’d especially love feedback on which export formats are actually useful and where the workflow still feels rough in real use.

Thanks for taking a look.
