Show HN: Ducklang: Achieving 100x more requests per second than NextJS Duck (https://duck-lang.dev) is a statically typed, compiled programming language that combines the best of Rust, TypeScript and Go, aiming to provide an alternative for full-stack-development while being as familiar as possible

Improvements over Rust: - garbage collection simplifies developing network applications - no lifetimes - built-in concurrency runtime and apis for web development

Improvements over bun/node/typescript: - massive performance gains due to Go's support for parallel execution and native code generation - easier deployment since Duck compiles to a statically linked native executable that doesn't need dependencies - reduced complexity and costs since a single duck deployment massively outscales anything that runs javascript - streamlined toolchain management using duckup (compiler version manager) and dargo (build tool)

Improvements over Go: - a more expresive type system supporting Union types, Duck typing and tighter control over mutability - Server Side Rendering with a jsx-like syntax as well as preact components for frontend development - better error handling based on union types - a rust based reimplementation of tailwind that is directly integrated with the language (but optional to use) - type-safe json apis

Show HN: Control Claude permissions using a cloud-based decision table UI

Show HN: Control Claude permissions using a cloud-based decision table UI We’ve been building visual rule engines (clear interfaces + API endpoints that help map input data to a large number of outcomes) for a while and had the fun idea lately to see what happens when we use our decision table UI with Claude’s PreToolUse hook.<p>The result is a surprisingly useful policy&#x2F;gating layer– these tables let your team:<p>- Write multi-factor, exception-friendly policies (e.g. deny rm -rf &#x2F; when --force; allow cleanup only in node_modules; ask on network calls like curl&#x2F;wget; block kubectl delete or SQL DROP, each with a clear reason)<p>- Roll out policy changes instantly (mid-run, flip a risky operation from allow → ask; the next attempt across devs and agents is gated immediately– no git pull, agent restart, or coordination)<p>- Adopt lightweight governance that is somewhat agent agnostic and survives churn (MCP&#x2F;skills&#x2F;etc)- just add columns&#x2F;rules as new tools and metadata show up<p>- Get a quick central utility to understand which tools are being used, which tools get blocked most often, and why

Show HN: Claude Code Scheduler

Show HN: Claude Code Scheduler I found myself frequently wanting to schedule tasks in Claude Code (both one-time and recurring) so I built a CC plugin to help with that.<p>To install: &#x2F;plugin marketplace add jshchnz&#x2F;claude-code-scheduler &#x2F;plugin install scheduler@claude-code-scheduler<p>Then just tell Claude what you want (some examples):<p>Every Wednesday at 3am find dead code: unused functions, unreachable branches, commented-out code, and unused imports. List by file with line numbers.<p>Schedule a code review every weekday at 9am. Review commits from the last 24 hours, check for bugs, security issues, error handling gaps, and code that needs comments. Summarize with file:line references.
