As someone who loves coding (uses vim, and has done so for ~10 years), but also is amazed by AI coding tools and has embraced them recently (e.g. copilot then claude code then code…

This is pretty cool. I'm curious, what do you mean "leverages your brain's spatial memory"?

This would make a nice documentary, or at least a nice little youtube vid

Will do. Thanks for the interest

not yet, but it is coming. It currently uses the screen capture libraries and video encoder in macos, but I am working on adding Windows equivalents at the moment.

Hey HN! I made ShotGlass, a Mac app for screenshots, screen recordings, and cinematic demos. I was tired of jumping between four apps to make one product demo. Screenshots, recordi…

What's the GPU VRAM requirements for this thing? Awesome to have a open model that can compete, but damn it would be so much better if you could run it locally. Otherwise, it's alm…

I run a few sites and use affiliates to help grow them. Used rewardful before, but most people blocked cookies, then affiliates never got credited, then they stopped promoting. The…

That's super cool (and FAST -> hard to do from my personal attempts). But, please, give us some nitty gritty of how you made it

This is simply beautiful, and will definitely inspire me with some arty projects I'm working on. Great work -> the minimalist UI, art and music fits amazingly. One thing I noticed:…

The “Astral from scratch guide“ idea really caught my eye. Gotta say that would be a pretty cool evolution of DIY electronics kits to OS kits

oh wow that is a beautiful photo mosaic. Well done.

That is so funny - after all these years you were sitting at your computer at the same time and clicked on the same post as the creator

Yes, that's exactly right. All your images are processed locally and don't leave your device. They are all processed in the web browser with javascript and your dev tools like you …

This is completely my own library running in the cloud. Started as a little experiment for myself and now it's blown out into this

No worries! This is adjustable via sliders (in the bottom left area) Thanks for the kind words!

haha there's a few similar stories coming on here now. Great to hear. Hey, if you want to do that with this software, I can't see any files you upload (it's all local processing in…

Thanks for sharing! Both the link and the story. As a University student and someone that has here also made a photomosaic app, that is super relatable. That's good to know about t…

I suppose you could make an art business. Or at least do what a few camera stores do

I could. That sounds like a great idea! Was thinking about uneven sized tiles. I just tried to make the basic photo mosaic with even sized tiles for now

If you adjust the overlay alpha to 0% you'll see it does use the submitted photos as tiles. Click the "Create Mosaic" button and you should see it arrange the tiles live in the bes…

Thank you for the feedback! I actually just did a quick change to add that recreate button CTA like you said. Much better and easy to understand. I'll work on that detailed sample …

Are you on Mac? If you right click a file/s > Quick Actions > Convert Image then you should be able to convert to JPEG or PNG. Funnily enough I also made a universal file converter…

Hi HN! I wanted to make some photomosaics for an anniversary gift, but I ended up building this tool and turning it into a website that anyone can use. For those who don’t know, a …
