Fractalysis is a free Mandelbrot viewer that runs in your browser. It zooms far deeper than double precision allows, using perturbation and arbitrary-precision arithmetic. I originally started this project 10 years ago, frustrated with existing limited or difficult to use viewers. I just finished porting this to web for everyone to enjoy directly :) There are still features I would like to add, like creating animations, automatic zooming and advanced user settings.

Hi HN, I’m RC. When I worked at ThoughtWorks, we were pretty religious about pair programming: one person driving, another reviewing, both working through the same problem. Most of us have already paired with an agent in our own coding sessions. Some of us have even tried putting agents in both seats: one implementing, the other reviewing. I really like Claude Code’s cross-session messaging. I wanted that same experience between Claude, Codex, and OpenCode. The existing setups meant installing a new app or plugins that just don't work reliably. I wanted something local that stayed out of…

I hope others find it useful as well. There are many ways you can set up Ledge: I keep my production notes local, and use Ledge server to manage my dev environments on a per-project basis. I can then access Ledge on my phone over Tailscale whenever I need to check on something remotely. Ledge only needs SSH for remote access, so yo…
