Show HN: Haserupt – A new way to reduce your phone usagehttps://www.haserupt.com

Instead of daily limits or scheduled focus sessions, Haserupt asks what you’re opening an app for before you open it. It then gives you just enough time to complete that task. Once the timer expires, the app stays unavailable for a short cool-off period. If you genuinely need more time right away, you can explain why and request an extension. For instance, when you open Instagram, you can choose one amongst "Check DMs (1 min)", "Watch reels (5 mins)", "Long convo (15 min)" and use the app for that much time. After that, Instagram will be locked behind a cooloff. After the cooloff ends, you…

tldr: clone of Apple Notes, but every note is a local Markdown file. Hi, I used a summer of unemployment to actually finalize a hobby project, a literal clone of Apple's Notes, with open access to the filesystem, meaning each note is just a markdown file. Then implemented renderers for Excalidraw, Latex, AsciiMath, mermaid diagrams, PlantUML, Graphviz, Vega Lite, mhchem and footnotes (a feature i need a lot in texts). It can also show notes in vertical lists, like swimlanes, I call it "JIRA view" ;) Free for now (might monetize later if successful, with $19 one-time payment, NOT subscription)…

Hi all. I'm Tarwin. I've been working on TinyJS for about 6 weeks now. I was sick of installing 500mb Electron apps for every little utility.

So I built this on top of txikijs, a tools that includes QuickJS and SQLite already. TinyJS does what it says it does. Small apps that can do almost anything. 100% JS. As part of building a tool like this I also built a lot of example apps, to test and understand required functionality on all three systems. The…

The methodology is pretty simple, data is extracted from posts using an LLM, score matches based on salary, domain experience, remote/onsite, etc., and then eliminate incompatible postings, like 'looking for remote work' and 'onsite only'. The result is two views: jobs-by-user and user-by-jobs. If you've submitted a post to this month's 'Who Wants to Be Hired?", you can find your matching job listi…
