Show HN: MyraOS – My 32-bit operating system in C and ASM (Hack Club project) 3 by dvirbt | 0 comments Hi HN, I’m Dvir, a young developer. Last year, I got rejected after a job interview because I lacked some CPU knowledge. After that, I decided to deepen my understanding in the low level world and learn how things work under the hood. I decided to try and create an OS in C and ASM as a way to broaden my knowledge in this area. This took me on the most interesting ride, where I’ve learned about OS theory and low level programming on a whole new level. I’ve spent hours upon hours, blood and tears, reading different OS theory blogs, learning low level concepts, debugging, testing and working on this project. I started by reading University books and online blogs, while also watching videos. Some sources that helped me out were OSDev Wiki ( https://wiki.osdev.org/Expanded_Main_Page ), OSTEP ( https://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~remzi/OSTEP ), open-source repositories like MellOS and LemonOS (more...

Show HN: Git for LLMs – a context management interface 7 by jborland | 2 comments Hi HN, we’re Jamie and Matti, co-founders of Twigg. During our master’s we continually found the same pain points cropping up when using LLMs. The linear nature of typical LLMs interfaces - like ChatGPT and Claude - made it really easy to get lost without any easy way to visualise or navigate your project. Worst of all, none of them are well suited for long term projects. We found ourselves spending days using the same chat, only for it to eventually break. Transferring context from one chat to another is also cumbersome. We decided to build something more intuitive to the ways humans think. We started with two simple ideas. Enabling chat branching for exploring tangents, and an interactive tree diagram to allow for easy visualisation and navigation of your project. Twigg has developed into an interface for context management - like “Git for LLMs”. We believe the input to a model - or the context - is fu...

Show HN: EloqDoc: MongoDB-compatible doc DB with object storage as first citizen 11 by iamlintaoz | 11 comments We're excited to share EloqDoc, a new open source document database built on top of Data Substrate. EloqDoc is designed around the principle of treating object storage (like S3) as a first-class citizen for durability and cost efficiency. If you love the flexibility of MongoDB's document model but are struggling with scaling, cost, and consistency due to its coupled architecture, EloqDoc is for you. It’s built to solve MongoDB's inherent infrastructure challenges while remaining fully compatible with existing MongoDB clients and drivers. Key Features: 1. Object Storage as First Citizen: Uses object storage for primary durability, leveraging local NVMe caching to achieve both lower cost and higher performance than using block-level storage (e.g. EBS). 2. Decoupled Compute & Storage: Scale your compute/QPS independently of your storage capacity, or vice-versa, ...

Show HN: We packaged an MCP server inside Chromium 10 by felarof | 7 comments Hey HN, we just shipped a browser with an inbuilt MCP server! We're a YC startup (S24) building BrowserOS — an open‑source Chromium fork. We're a privacy‑first alternative to the new wave of AI browsers like Dia, Perplexity Comet. Since launching ~3 months ago, the #1 request has been to expose our browser as an MCP server. -- Google beat us to launch with chrome-devtools-mcp (solid product btw), which lets you build/debug web apps by connecting Chrome to coding assistants. But we wanted to take this a step further: we packaged the MCP server directly into our browser binary. That gives three advantages: 1. MCP server setup is super simple — no npx install, no starting Chrome with CDP flags, you just download the BrowserOS binary. 2. with our browser's inbuilt MCP server, AI agents can interact using your logged‑in sessions (unlike chrome-devtools-mcp which starts a fresh headless instance each t...

Show HN: I built a simple ambient sound app with no ads or subscriptions 12 by alpaca121 | 3 comments I’ve always liked having background noise while working or falling asleep, but I got frustrated that most “white noise” or ambient sound apps are either paywalled, stuffed with ads, or try to upsell subscriptions for basic features. So I made Ambi, a small iOS app with a clean interface and a set of freely available ambient sounds — rain, waves, wind, birds, that sort of thing. You can mix them, adjust volume levels, and just let it play all night or while you work. Everything works offline and there are no hidden catches. It’s something I built for myself first, but I figured others might find it useful too. Feedback, bugs, and suggestions are all welcome. https://apps.apple.com/app/ambi-white-noise-sleep-sounds/id6... on Hacker News.

Show HN: I built a local-first podcast app 22 by aegrumet | 5 comments I worked on early podcast software in 2004 (iPodder/Juice) and have been a heavy podcast consumer ever since. I wanted a podcast app that respects your privacy and embraces the open web—and to explore what's possible in the browser. The result is wherever.audio, which you can try right now at the link above. How it works: It's a progressive web app that stores all your subscriptions and data locally in your browser using IndexedDB. Add it to your home screen and it feels native. Works offline with downloaded episodes. No central server storing your data—just some Cloudflare/AWS helpers to smooth out browser limitations. What makes it different: - True local-first: Your data stays on your device - Custom feeds: Add any RSS feed, not just what's in a directory - On-device search: Search across all feeds and episodes, including your custom ones - Podcasting 2.0 support: Chapters, transcripts, funding tags,...

Show HN: ut – Rust based CLI utilities for devs and IT 28 by ksdme9 | 8 comments Hey HN, I find myself reaching for tools like it-tools.tech or other random sites every now and then during development or debugging. So, I built a toolkit with a sane and simple CLI interface for most of those tools. For the curious and lazy, at the moment, ut has tools for, - Encoding: base64 (encode, decode), url (encode, decode) - Hashing: md5, sha1, sha224, sha256, sha384, sha512 - Data Generation: uuid (v1, v3, v4, v5), token, lorem, random - Text Processing: case (lower, upper, camel, title, constant, header, sentence, snake), pretty-print, diff - Development Tools: calc, json (builder), regex, datetime - Web & Network: http (status), serve, qr - Color & Design: color (convert) - Reference: unicode For full disclosure, parts of the toolkit were built with Claude Code (I wanted to use this as an opportunity to play with it more). Feel free to open feature requests and/or contribute. on Hack...

Show HN: Run – a CLI universal code runner I built while learning Rust 5 by esubaalew | 0 comments Hi HN — I’m learning Rust and decided to build a universal CLI for running code in many languages. The tool, Run, aims to be a single, minimal dependency utility for: running one-off snippets (from CLI flags), running files, reading and executing piped stdin, and providing language-specific REPLs that you can switch between interactively. I designed it to support both interpreted languages (Python, JS, Ruby, etc.) and compiled languages (Rust, Go, C/C++). It detects languages from flags or file extensions, can compile temporary files for compiled languages, and exposes a unified REPL experience with commands like :help, :lang, and :quit. Install: cargo install run-kit (or use the platform downloads on GitHub). Source & releases: https://github.com/Esubaalew/run I used Rust while following the official learning resources and used AI to speed up development, so I expect there are bugs ...
