https://tritium.legal Tritium is an IDE for corporate lawyers. Draft Word docs, review PDFs, redline all in a single application. It's written in Rust using a modified version of egui. Immediate mode has some interesting tradeoffs that I'd love to discuss on here. Also the web/desktop dichotomy presents a lot of interesting opportunities and challenges where data governance is concerned. I'd love your thoughts or to…

Now my lawyer will be using vscode too, sweet!

Hopefully it will save you some billable hours :)

I'm still working on Routing24 https://routing24.com - free route optimization and planning app without stops or vehicles limit.

It's been 6 month since our first appearance on Show HN [1], and I'm working with first free users on bugs, improved workflows and UX, geocoding, solver features, future mobile app etc. etc.

We officially crossed the limits of 1500 stops per optimization with some waste collection guys, all still running fully client-side in the browser.

I'm working on https://greatriftsafari.com — a travel planning platform that uses AI + local expertise to help people design and book personalized safaris in Kenya.

Most safari booking sites are either outdated, opaque on pricing, or offer one-size-fits-all tours. We let travelers customize everything — dates, interests (e.g. big cats, birding, photography), travel style, and budget — and generate a full itinerary with lodge picks, activity suggestions, and accurate cost estimates (including seasonal pricing and transportation).

We also partnered with local operators so users can actually book what they see — not just get ideas. The goal is to make safaris more accessible and planning less overwhelming.

Still early, but if you're curious or planning a trip to Africa, I'd love feedback: https://greatriftsafari.com

I recently quit my salary job after 16 years and am consulting in nuclear engineering now. I have a few passion projects that I'm working on (between the somewhat substantial consulting work that came out of the woodwork): - Nuclear Reactor Starter Kit --- an open source set of procedures, processes, templates, and maybe even some IT advice that should help newcomers start companies with nuclear quality assurance pro…

This is really really interesting. Do share any links, or do post about it here on hn.

Have fun!

I've been collecting and digitizing vintage print advertisements and publishing them ( https://adretro.com ). I have tens of thousands of ads in the collection and it would take me many lifetimes to complete, but I've been using AI to extract and catalog the meta data. I can get through about 100 ads/day this way. One of my favorite ads, a computer from 1968 that "answers riddles": https://adretro.com/ads/1968-digi-c…

That’s really cool.

A hybrid between forum and (headless) CMS, with customer support tools built in, so people can build websites that are kinda like posthog.com without having to patch everything together from scratch (and instead focus on their actual product AND not lose their community content in slack/discord/whatever).

Checkout how posthog did it [1], it's an interesting approach. Having something that can support both devs and content folks (non technical) is great. It is easy to get bogged down in building the website and reinventing bunch of wheeels, instead of focusing on the product & content, esp in smaller teams.
