This was a great team. Sad to see they had to shut down.

Hey HN, I’m one of the authors of Sirji, an open-source AI software development agent (implemented as a VS Code extension).

I’ve been collating feedback from our early users and this post is about all that’s (currently) broken.

While most of these issues are unique to Sirji, a few are also common to other AI agents.

Some are easy fixes while a few others might be quite hard to get right.

Hi HN! OP here.

Backstory: I work remotely and one thing I miss is the brainstorming sessions. That’s what got me to build drunk startups, a new team-building activity by Thursday.

In this activity, your team breaks out into smaller groups and ideates over absurd prompts like delivering pizza to International Space Station. You put your best ideas onto the whiteboard and later pitch those to the entire team.

Let me know your feedback/suggestions.

OP here. I launched Thursday on PH yesterday (Thursday) and shared our metrics publicly. These include unique visitors (by the time of the day), browser, OS, and countries. I also added conversion data.

Thursday is a simple web app with no sign-up, so our conversion metrics will differ from most other products. So yes, your mileage will vary. But I believe the traffic could be a good indicator of what to expect from a PH launch. Now, that too might vary by the day of the week.

I'm getting the traffic data from Amplitude, and the conversion-related data from our database.
