Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (June 2025)

really great, would make for a great tower defense style game as well. Start with few resources and learn what each capability can do. Defend against more complex/advanced threats over time.

Is the equipment efficiency meant to capture e.g. using a $1M missile to shoot down a $1k uav/rocket

Repo: https://github.com/arajnoha/phodo ultra minimalist web todo app (php+html+css). stores everthing in single JSON, has a day view, allows you only to mark as done, delete and add. list days back and forth + jump to today. When task is added while listing days, its added to that listed day. PHP and CSS are both below 100 LOC.

Im working on simplyfing the code further. I tried really all of the "productivity" stuff to stay organised. Got angry multiple times, went to pen and paper, was OK, but i felt i just need a slight glimps of tech to make it more functional. Something little more than plaintext file, but not much.

A HN Reader PWA demo with my own framework rEFui

It started as a demo only but it looks slick so I added standalone PWA to it to be installable as a desktop app. Now browsing HN feels even better!

I'm working on LLM translation research for my tool that teaches you a language while you browse by translating sentences at your level into the language you're learning (https://nuenki.app)

I've had some breakthroughs with LLM translation, and I can now translate (slowly, unfortunately) at a far far higher quality than Opus, and well above DeepL. So I'm considering offering that as an API, though I don't know how much people actually care about translation quality.

DeepL's customers clearly don't care - their website is all about enterprise features, and they appear to get plenty of business despite their core product being mediocre.

Would people here be interested in that?
