It's very basic honestly, NextJS on Vercel + Tailwind 4. Wanted to keep it as simple as possible.

Show HN: I built a faster, simpler Letterboxd alternative
I always wanted a more intuitive movie watchlist app so I spent the last couple of weeks building one: https://www.queuebrick.com is a fast and elegantly simple movie (and tv) trac…

I think most of Google's deep research projects were done in the pursuit of pure science, not monetization or productization. In hindsight sure, it looks like they missed an opport…

Google literally invented the boat (transformers) to be fair.

I mean, looking at the state of things right now in the US, I'd have to strongly disagree with you.

I just mean ontologically, it does not surprise nor terrify me that a machine built to simulate human output also simulates the worst of us.

Doesn't seem that surprising or terrifying to me. Humans come equipped with a lot more internal biases (learned in a fairly similar fashion), and they're usually a lot more resista…

The transients were pretty easy to replicate yes. The nuclear testing stuff was pretty inconclusive but they have a much better curated collection of plates that aren't available y…

Awhile ago I built my own ML pipeline to automate scanning these plates, it was very revealing. Beatriz and her team were very helpful. https://arxiv.org/abs/2604.04810

They're there before the tests though, and potentially more frequent around nuclear testing calendar days. The argument has never been "these only showed up after a nuclear test."

Show HN: A small neural net asks if physical law is inevitable for any observer
I built a small neural network (a GRU) that works similarly to how you and I work. It sees short, noisy snapshots one at a time, has a small internal memory that carries forward, a…

It's genuinely a great introduction to LLMs. I built my own awhile ago based off Milton's Paradise Lost: https://www.wvrk.org/works/milton

Nope, they're surprisingly hard to get ahold of. So I've resorted to being extremely noisy online. Temporal accumulation: imagine you're observing a signal through a narrow window …

I've been doing this for about a month. I also have wildly complicated ML pipelines working similarly in parallel. When Karpathy's 'autoresearch' came out I was surprised by how no…

Horizontal space is still a premium regardless of monitor size when designing/building for responsive viewports. Vertical space is almost zero cost in terms of design constraints. …
