Hi HN, I'm Anshul. Diurnal is a Mac to-do app I've been working on. Many to-do apps have a quick-add shortcut: a text field that appears when you trigger it, into which you can type a task. But the task box only knows about the task you're typing - to pick a time, you have to go to another app to check your calendar. But when you hit β§βA anywhere, Diurnal overlays your current app with your day β your tasks, Google Calendar meetings and a timeline. You can see that 3-4pm is busy, so you type "call John 4pm" and hit return. The task gets filed under 4pm, and you're back in the app you weβ¦

Hey HN! I built Sanemark, a Markdown LSP for taking notes. Some design choices: 1. Automatically moves inline links to reference links as part of formatting, so the flow of reading doesn't break due to large inline links 2. File linking is achieved using standard Markdown links (instead of Obsidian style). Apart from this it implements filepath autocomplete, broken file-link diagnostics, table formatting etc. Available as extensions for VS Code and Zed. The code was generated using AI, but I guided the implementation and design along with beta-testing it. Itβs been useful for my own note-taβ¦
The private email address GitLab gives you for filing issues by email is a credential. Anyone who gets it can email a patch that GitLab commits in your name, to any branch you can push to, including main, and can start CI/CD jobs that run as you. GitLab shows each user this address behind a button labeled "Email work item to this project." Mail sent to it opens an issue in that project, authored

Storytime! One day I came to the office and showed a friend a literal bot that I was working on for a game project. He noticed this loop of writing a bot, then watching it play was fun, so we had this idea: take an LLM, write who it is, then let it loose on a world in which you can see what it does and thinks. 1, the world: a persistent canvas in which the AIs can draw pixels. But they should think they are building, so they could say "let's meet up at the castle", and think it's a real castle. 2, the AIs need to see the world. But... can a model with vision see up to a pixel with exact coordβ¦

A ML Study group stepped through Karpathy's python code on Colab, and we looked at a Rust version I created. I was asked to create a more readable version in my ML/array programming language. This work is helping me with dogfooding my language. I am now adding several improvements to the language to improve ergonomics, readability, and possibly speed (one example in sw-MLPL actually runs faster than my Rust port). I was able to express the code more compactly than the Python or Rust versions. The planned improvements will allow me to simplify many downstream demo projects that have been workiβ¦

Hi HN! I'm Michael and I built HookDeploy. HookDeploy is a webhook infrastructure tool that captures webhooks at the edge, allows for inspection, transformation and fanout to multiple destinations including to your own private infrastructure with our first-party (source-available) mTLS agent. Runs as a service on Linux, lives in the tray on Windows and in the menu bar on Mac. As I'm sure most of you you have felt webhooks kind of suck if things don't go exactly as planned. Dropped webhooks or failures are likely silent. What actually drove me to build this was cleaning up after major cloud ouβ¦

A few days ago, I was using JADX MCP to analyze my phone, but JADX MCP was just too laggy. I had a large number of APKs to analyze, and nearly every one of them required spinning up a new JADX process. With just two or three of them, my computer ran out of memory. The efficiency was terribly low, so I came up with an idea and wrote a script. I built a on-demand Android decompiler called Droid ASC. Literally dozens to hundreds of times faster than JADX, no exaggeration. Here are the benchmark charts. I tested APKs across 4 orders of magnitude. For a ~50MB APK, a global cross reference index seβ¦

As President Trump and China's President Xi prepare to meet, Rush Doshi of the Council on Foreign RelationsΒ explains the current state of U.S.-China relations and what to expect from this summit.

Hello, My name is Kostya Vasilyev and I was the original developer of an Android email app called Aqua Mail, sold to MobiSystems in 2019 at 3.5 organically grown users. After that, I built a new email app called Sugar Mail, based on a cloud email sync platform. The project hasn't been a success with end users, but I think the sync platform could be useful to someone so I'm looking to sell it and include the app too. Mail sync runs in the cloud and supports IMAP and Exchange, both with push mail, and the latter with bi-directional calendar and contact sync. Both Office 365 and on-prem Exchangeβ¦
