Ask HN: Do we still need code editors, or are Git clients enough?
My workflow has shifted away from the features of code editors toward just the git integration: viewing commits, checking uncommitted changes, seeing what will go into the final PR, and so on. I'm used to JetBrains IDEs, so I still open them mainly for the git integration. I really like being able to view a diff there with the file tree next to it.
For the actual coding, I use Claude Code in my terminal. I know many of you use your IDE's AI integration for this, or the Codex/Claude desktop apps, which are essentially just AI plus git integration with no real editor. So the features IDEs build around writing code don't seem to matter as much anymore, at least for me.
I'm curious whether anyone else feels the same way. If you do, what do you use for git: an IDE, one of the AI desktop apps, or a dedicated git client? If you know of a good git client built for this new workflow, I'd love to hear about it.

Show HN: Radius – A Meetup.com Alternative
Hello HN!
I'm relaunching Radius [1] - far too long after the original Show HN [2] (I'll blame the day job for that).
Radius started out from my frustration with not knowing what was going on around me. The initial plan was to "show all and every type of event" from big to small, but over time I narrowed the focus to communities, groups, events, and helping people connect through them.
The initial Show HN gave me 150+ comments (surprising, looking back, given how terrible the plain Bootstrap UI was...) with a huge amount of useful feedback and feature requests. I've spent the time since then working through that, along with additional requests from groups using Radius, and it finally feels ready for a proper relaunch.
I've also recently added "Activities" [3] - which are lightweight events, independent of groups, intended to help people find others to do things with - for example:
> John is going for a cycle and a coffee in New York at 10am
People can join and vote for a time that works for them.
I've got a bunch of ideas for where to go next with this, including things like open sourcing and federation, but those are for another day!
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
P.S. it's built with Ruby on Rails, for those interested. I highly suspect it would have taken me 2 more years to get to this point without Rails!

Flock Offers Employees Buyouts as Customers Flee
submitted by Powderhorn to technology
102 points | 18 comments
https://www.wired.com/story/flock-is-offering-voluntary-buyouts-to-employees/Flock Safety announced a voluntary employee separation program on Friday, offering a “generous” severance package to those who want to leave amid growing backlash against the surveillance technology company, according to an internal email shared with WIRED.
Applications for Flock’s voluntary severance program opened Friday, and employees have until October 2 to decide whether to leave the company. Flock expects to grant buyouts to the majority of workers who apply, according to the email. People familiar with the program but not authorized to discuss it publicly say they believe that a significant number of the startup’s roughly 1,500 employees may try to depart.
Flock is making the severance offers as it continues to lose customers amid growing frustration across the US about its sprawling network of license plate readers, which have raised concerns about privacy and misuse. In the last month, WIRED has documented officers allegedly abusing Flock to track former romantic partners and colleagues, exposed how widely some agencies share access to the system, shown how little is known about the manufacturing of the devices, and revealed in new detail how much information Flock’s cameras collect based on data from a dismantled Flock device.
