I've always loved to draw but it is sometimes hard to find the time during the day to do it. I was on the phone with a friend a few weeks ago and we both said we wanted to draw more. So I made this little app to help us draw something, anything, once a day. Two other friends joined our group since then but have yet to show up. My friend and I have been pretty good at keeping at it though, my best run so far is 34 days of drawing. I've created a few open teams if you wanted to give it a try with other people from HN.

I built an app that shows a Pomodoro timer and Lofi Music channels under your Mac's notch, for quick and easy access. The timer slips away as part of the notch so you just see the countdown, and pops up on hover when you need it. My motivation for building this was to help me set dedicated focus times during my day. I find Lofi music from the Lofi Girl channel especially useful to get my brain focused. Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49845750 Points: 1 # Comments: 0

As the UN warns traditional safeguards are ‘unravelling’, Donald Trump says he will encourage, not restrain, the AI race When the Australian prime minister, Anthony Albanese, sat down for an interview in the heart of Silicon Valley at the weekend he had known for two days that his was the first government known to have been attacked by a rogue AI agent.
