I don't have to tell the Hacker News crowd how junked up the web has become.

During my 45 min commute to work I listen to podcasts. Over the last year, like most here, I have been focusing on AI and agentic engineering. The podcasts that I enjoyed the most profiled research papers. In April I started playing round with generating a semi-automated pipeline with python and Claude to generate a private podcast that does a deep dive into AI research papers. I think it is really cool. It fetches p…
I consume the same way. RSS in Apple Podcasts. Such a great way to spend time in the car since it’s so personally curated.
I made it because doing one of the mainstream Markdown renderers + Katex (LaTeX) + Prism.js (syntax highlight) adds 300kb of gzipped JS to the frontend projects, so with this you can have it all for just 10kb. It also works well with streaming/does stable partial rendering.
It supports features usually reserved for LLM chatbots, but also for normal everyday Markdown, so feel free to use it or give feedback!
- Reenvision technologies: simple software. Local first - no added complexity. Infinite scale without having to add 100 front-end UI frameworks: simple Python, CSS, and JS with SQLite. The design is absolutely breathtaking and beautiful and it is built people first (let's worry about scale later).
- Simple LLM: an LLM which doesn't need a GPU to function. It uses Hebbian learning with extreme compression and attempts to achieve 'reasoning ability' through using a in-built Prolog interpreter. It very much resembles a human being in it's 'thinking mode' so far but still far from perfect.
- Simple-Education: local first software for parents looking to provide home-schooling for their children. It makes learning easy and fun and uses best practices to maximise your child's chance of success.
- About a dozen other projects which I've started but I need help on. If you want to team up -- I will give you equal equity in my start-ups. I cannot offer you a salary though I'm not at the point yet where I can do that: but I will give you equal equity in anything that you want to work on together with me. I have over 100 different million dollar ideas that will make us wealthy if you want to join my team, so PM me if you're interested.
https://banksia.bio - I think private personal genome sequencing is an underserved market. I'm trying to start a "Mullvad VPN"-esque service where I as a provider do not need your personal information to perform the sequencing. Very much a WIP at the moment :) --- https://github.com/hill/lazyslurm - a terminal ui for SLURM jobs (like lazygit but for slurm!) --- https://github.com/hill/pg_tamagotchi - a tamagotchi tha…
I think the main reason is that the West has quite limited access to pro-level teachers (similar to how chess is like in Asia, just the other way round). Most pro-level Go teachers in Asia do not speak/read any foreign languages (e.g. English), so I want to remove the language barrier and make high level of Go teaching more accessible to the Western world (so that the Go population there will increase). Several European users used it and the feedback was good (and recurring purchases). The translation part is working quite well (Go-specific domain translation), and I hope it will help more foreign Go enthusiasts improve their game.
