Ask HN: What are you working on? (October 2024)

You can either choose a book from the catalogue (currently just public domain books, but I’d like to expand that out into paid books) or upload your own epub, create a reading group and invite others. Reading progress, highlights, comments and discussions are synced across the group in real-time.

Beyond reading groups, I’ve found it useful for sharing and reading books in my work teams and also for things like sharing the latest position of my daughter’s bedtime story between myself and my wife.

Please do check it out - it’s still very much a work in progress (for example I haven’t finished the landing page copy) but I’d love to hear what you think.

I’ve fixed the handling of global environment, to the point where I’m able to compile a program that prints out the result of multiplying two numbers [0]. Sounds trivial, but seeing as the compiler has no dependencies and targets bare metal, there’s quite a lot of moving parts under the hood. I’m excited!

Right now I’m adding rudimentary support for strings. My goal is to get it to compile itself, but that’s still a far future. Extrapolating from the current development pace, maybe I’ll get it done in 2050? :)

Linode does not have any way to identify cross regional latency. So created this. In process of adding new regions now.

All runs locally, the finetune is a plaigemma-3b (from mix-448). Acc/F1/prec/recall are all within 99.99%, including on llm-generated spam.
