Show HN: Twixt – transform one word into another in four moves https://bit.ly/4o59vhf

Show HN: Twixt – transform one word into another in four moves I made this game while working on a different project about teaching English spelling. I was reading about homophones and got struck by how much a homophone can transform the shape of a word, so I started experimenting with little games built on that. I added a few more transforms, anagrams, verb/tense changes, but the answers kept coming out too obvious. I couldn't distort the word enough to make it interesting. The breakthrough was compound pairs. Jumping from one word to another through their compound (sea → horse, via seahorse) really obscures the path and that's when it suddenly got fun and unpredictable. I've been sharing it with friends. I'm in the UK so mostly UK testers, fair warning that a couple of the homophones may lean British. They've been playing daily and seem hooked, so it felt worth posting here. It's one puzzle a day mainly so I actually have time to hand pick puzzles that have a satisfying path. Today's puzzle is on the easy side but they can get really tricky. The name is from 'betwixt', the whole game is about moving between two words. I did clock afterwards that there's a 60s board game with the same name, but they're pretty different things. https://bit.ly/4nRbEgm May 21, 2026 at 01:29PM

Show HN: A platform to find people to jam on side projects with https://bit.ly/43wlQBf

Show HN: A platform to find people to jam on side projects with I have always found it funny how challenging it can be to find people to jam on side projects with. There are literally entire sub-Reddits where people post looking for someone to work on a project with. That is super inefficient. There are also newsletters for this (also pretty inefficient). Let's Jam is my attempt to solve this. This is NOT a cofounder matching platform. The idea is to connect people with ideas and skills so they can jam on them together. If they end up becoming cofounders, cool, but that is up to them. This is also NOT a place for freelancers to hunt job opportunities. Again, the platform is for people who have an idea or a skill and want to work on something together. How it works: > You either a) find a project and request to jam on it with that person, b) post a project and wait for someone to request to jam on it with you, c) claim an idea and wait for someone to request to jam on it with you. > Once someone requests to jam with you, you'll get an email, and you can vet them via LinkedIn or their past work. If you think they'll be a good fit then accept their request and they'll reach out to you. > That's it. Simple. Any feedback is greatly appreciated! https://bit.ly/4uo98As May 24, 2026 at 01:28AM

Show HN: Open-source private home security camera system (end-to-end encryption) Hey everyone, I'm back with some exciting updates. I previously introduced an open source private home security camera in 2024, which uses OpenMLS for end-to-end encryption. It was called Privastead then and it's now renamed to Secluso. John Kaczman found my project from here and has been working on it with me over the last year and half. We've made a lot of improvements to the software, which we would like to share with you: - You can now set this up on your Raspberry Pi in less than 5 minutes with no technical expertise using our easy-to-use GUI deploy tool. We've put together a comprehensive build-your-own guide that walks you through the required steps (you can find a link at the top of the repository README). - We use a customized, minimal OS based on the Yocto project for the camera. - Every part of our stack except for the iOS app has reproducible builds. This includes our Android app, camera/server binaries, deploy tool, and the aforementioned OS. - We've re-designed our mobile app, which is now on the iOS App Store and Google Play store. - We now support UnifiedPush for more privacy-preserving push notifications. Looking forward to seeing what you all think! https://bit.ly/4tKxUJT May 22, 2026 at 10:51PM

Show HN: Spec-Driven Development Workflow for Claude Code Spec Driven Development approach allows to squeeze more from coding agents thanks to few strong concepts: - decomposition across two dimensions. first you generate specs in multiple steps (requirements, code analysis, design), than you split task into multiple subtasks and implement them one by one - you clear context between every step - after spec generation and after subtask implementation. this helps keep cost low and context clear and focused which boost performance - specs written to disk help with information persistency - delivering specs layer by layer help to catch early when agent got you wrong Repo with claude plugin for spec driven development: https://bit.ly/4wEHSPX May 22, 2026 at 04:17AM

Show HN: Free Fonts – a collection of 400+ original, open-source typefaces https://bit.ly/4eVUv2x

Show HN: Free Fonts – a collection of 400+ original, open-source typefaces Hi HN! For the past few months I've been working up to this launch of Free Fonts - it's a collection of completely free, open source, and original fonts that can be used for any project, including commercial ones. The collection has over 400 fonts in a variety of novel styles, from simple sans serifs to decorative handwritten and blackletter fonts. It will also continue to be updated and grow over time. Designers and developers today have essentially two options when it comes to choosing and creating fonts. Either use a Google Font, which can be limited in terms of unique and novel selections, or pay a significant amount of money for font licenses from a few large players in the space like Monotype. The problem today is that it can be difficult to find a novel, unique font for an affordable price. Our hope is that this collection can be a starting point for solving this problem. What makes this project different is that every font in the collection was generated completely by AI, and is a novel set of letterforms. This is what makes it possible for me to launch the project with confidence that these fonts can be freely used in any type of project. The AI workflow behind this project is also accessible on the same site. Our model was trained on a variety of images across the internet and then runs a full pipeline to transform a consistent set of letters into a single downloadable TTF font file. It can be prompted from a text prompt, or a sample image that contains an image of some text. Font licensing is a complex world, and I deeply believe that it is ripe for a change. My hope is that this launch can spark a new conversation on the future of typography and how it can be freely and easily used by designers and developers over time. Hope that you enjoy, and would love your feedback about the project and also the fonts themselves. Eric https://bit.ly/4v71Uks May 22, 2026 at 12:57AM

Show HN: I made a tactical map-based WWII submarine simulator (public beta) https://bit.ly/4wMuppi

Show HN: I made a tactical map-based WWII submarine simulator (public beta) I've seen quite a few simming discussions on HN, so thought some of you might like this - I've created a map-centered, tactical submarine simulator and it's been a blast to make. I grew up playing Silent Service II on Atari ST with my dad, then got into Silent Hunter IV in the 2000s, and most recently have been loving the more recent UBoat. In each case, the part I always enjoy the most is the plotting and charting aspect - essentially beating uncertain estimates with geometry. So I decided to see how far I could get making my own sim that focused nearly entirely on that aspect. You listen on the hydrophone, estimate course and speed, identify ships through the periscope to get the mast height, use a working stadimeter for range estimates, and then try to build a good enough firing solution before getting discovered and hunted by any escorts. Things I'm particularly proud of are the working stadimeter, the dynamic music (Holst Mars stings when your torpedo is nearing a ship), and pretty intelligent destroyer logic. I've found great reference materials online and have modeled several of the gauges directly after actual submarine instruments. Tech-wise it’s a Vite/TypeScript app which enables me to offer the whole free version of the app as a browser version. The Steam page is here => https://bit.ly/3RnOge7 The landing page is here => https://bit.ly/4wGEPGR I plan on releasing a full version soonish, including a WWII campaign with progression, patrol zones, and much more on Steam (PC, Mac, Linux/Steam Deck), App Store (iPhone, iPad, Mac), and Play Store (Android).

Show HN: I reverse engineered Apple's video wallpapers https://bit.ly/4v0cMjQ

Show HN: I reverse engineered Apple's video wallpapers Ever since Apple introduced their video wallpapers I wanted to be able to put custom videos there. I decided to reverse engineer and see what I can do. I built Phosphene to sell it, but the existing competitors were polished enough that the time it would have taken to catch up wasn't going to pay off. So I'm open-sourcing it. WallpaperExtensionKit.framework is what powers macOS wallpapers. It controls what’s shows in the Settings app. It took a lot of trial and error to replicate the behavior, but the result is that your custom wallpapers appear alongside everything else. I wanted to have an “add” button there too, but I couldn’t find a way to do so, so there’s a companion app that will put your video where it needs to be. Unlike Apple's Aerials, the video keeps playing on the desktop (not just the lock screen). The renderer drives AVSampleBufferDisplayLayer directly with PTS-offset gapless looping, and pauses or downshifts based on thermal state, battery level, brightness, and window occlusion. It’s free and works well. https://bit.ly/4uYuDHQ May 21, 2026 at 12:54AM

Show HN: How to Kill the Dead Internet https://bit.ly/4uk2jQx

Show HN: How to Kill the Dead Internet Ok, so maybe "how to revive the internet" would be more accurate, but if you're reading this, I got your attention, right? Here's why I want you to read on: I built a free extension, D-slop, to disincentivize anyone from posting AI writing, and eventually images and video as well, on the internet. For writing, it checks known vocab and punctuation tells, as well as subtler tells related to cadence, and assigns it a score subject to an adjustable threshold. If the text fails, users have the option to flag offending text, hide it, or block the page entirely (with the option to see anyway). For media, it's admittedly fairly weak, as it relies on C2PA metadata which is stripped from all of the social media sites where it would be most helpful. (Anyone else have chronically online boomer parents continually gobbling up slop like it's real information?) I have a D-slop+ version in the works that should be able to handle the media itself, but it's going to have to make API calls to have real teeth, which means I can't offer it for free. If this extension validates the concept, I'm happy to build it for y'all. Yes, I vibe-coded it, but an ancillary bonus to the project accrued when it inspired me to cook dinner listening to Metallica's "Fight Fire with Fire," which in turn brought my 5 y/o running into the kitchen with every musical instrument in the house for an impromptu karaoke speed metal session. It's MIT license open-source, full brief at https://bit.ly/49RROvm ; This forum is full of people smarter than me, so I'm open to suggestions. https://bit.ly/4uRn71v May 18, 2026 at 02:35AM

I rebuilt it from scratch in Go as a single binary that can run either as a CGI program or as a normal HTTP server. I know CGI is generally considered legacy technology now, but I still rely on it for shared hosting. In this version, I added Markdown support, a responsive default theme, Open Graph image generation, and static output generation. It is still in beta, but the repository includes a Docker image published on GHCR, documentation, and a local quick start. I'd appreciate feedback from anyone interested in small self-hosted publishing tools, especially if you still care about shared hosting or CGI-style deployment. https://bit.ly/4dzexgV May 17, 2026 at 04:47AM

Show HN: HYPD – AI co-pilot for marketers running Google Ads https://bit.ly/4tASBrQ

Show HN: HYPD – AI co-pilot for marketers running Google Ads We've been building HYPD for the last 1 year together with a small team in Berlin. It's an AI co-pilot (chatbot) for PPC freelancers and agencies. It connects to a Google Ads account, then runs audits, performs data analysis from natural language ("why did CAC jump last Tuesday"), generates ad copy grounded in account history and context, and exports reports and datasets. Thesis behind it: just like programming is "solved" but engineering is not, ad-ops and media buying will be solved, but account strategy and human creativity remain the leverage. Background: I founded PubNative (acquired by Verve Group), was Co-CEO at Verve Group, and for the last year we've been "taming" LLMs when working with structured and unstructured data. So far we got more than 200+ agencies and freelancers onboarded. Hard parts so far: (1) data accuracy, (2) understanding the gaps in LLM knowledge of the Google Ads API, (3) adding enough context to make answers fit what professional marketers expect. Free trial + free tier on the site. Happy to enable demo accounts for anyone who wants to test it without connecting their account. https://bit.ly/4eOAQlb May 13, 2026 at 10:09AM

Show HN: NodeDB – High Perfomance Multi-Model Database https://bit.ly/4d5meMY

Show HN: NodeDB – High Perfomance Multi-Model Database Hey HN, I've been working on a multi-model database called NodeDB. Originally, i've found out the idea of SurrealDB quite good. However, it doesn't have some graph and vector features that I need. And since it is just a KV wrapper, instead of purpose-built engine, the performance will never be close to the specialized databases (like Neo4j, Pinecone, Clickhouse, etc). And i've asked myself, what if, there is a database that have the same idea, but built differently? Instead of just treating it as KV database, we build specialized engines for the data. Besides that, I want it to be able to support my IOT/edge project, where i need offline sync capabilities (Currentyl still in progress). Will it work? I put it into test. I've been experimenting and researching for a year, creating multiple versions, and then I created NodeDB. Disclaimer: It is still in public beta (as of May 2026), but it really excites me if I can make this db work. And I use AI as assistant for coding and planning. It is nearly impossible to do as a solo developer without any AI assistance. Would love feedback from HN: - Are there specific features or improvements that would make it more useful? If you're interested in experimenting or contributing, the repo is here: GitHub Repo: https://bit.ly/4nlpE1s Looking forward to your thoughts! https://bit.ly/4nlpE1s May 12, 2026 at 12:21AM

Show HN: adamsreview – better multi-agent PR reviews for Claude Code https://bit.ly/4dBFSjG

Show HN: adamsreview – better multi-agent PR reviews for Claude Code I built adamsreview, a Claude Code plugin that runs deeper, multi-stage PR reviews using parallel sub-agents, validation passes, persistent JSON state, and optional ensemble review via Codex CLI and PR bot comments. On my own PRs, it has been catching dramatically more real bugs than Claude’s built-in /review, /ultrareview, CodeRabbit, Greptile, and Codex’s built-in review, while producing fewer false positives. adamsreview is six Claude Code slash commands packaged as a plugin: review, codex-review, add, promote, walkthrough, and fix. I modeled it after the built-in /review command and extended it meaningfully. You can clear context between review stages because state is stored in JSON artifacts on disk, with built-in scripts for keeping it updated. The walkthrough command uses Claude’s AskUserQuestion feature to walk you through uncertain findings or items needing human review one by one. Then, the fix command dispatches per-fix-group agents and re-reviews the work with Opus, reverting any regressions before committing survivors. It runs against your regular Claude Code subscription (Max plan recommended), unlike /ultrareview, which charges against your Extra Usage pool. I would love feedback from Claude Code users, pro devs, and anyone with strong opinions about AI code reviews.

It's my JavaScript runtime, built from scratch over many hours of work. Much effort has gone into keeping the binary size small, around 9MB at the moment (6.5 MB with -Os). On my M4 Pro, the hono coldstart bench (examples/npm/hono/bench-coldstart.js) lands around 5ms, about 2.4x faster than bun, and 5.8x faster than node. To keep things small, the engine ("Ant Silver") is hand-written, not a wrapper around V8/JSC/SpiderMonkey. The JIT is still a work in progress but it uses a fork of MIR as the backend. Ant currently targets the WinterTC Minimum Common API, while also passing 100% the javascript-zoo compat-table tests, and is sitting around 64% on test262. Why did I build Ant? Well, I wanted a runtime small enough to ship with CLI's and small Docker containers without having to drag along 50 to 100mb of just runtime. Ant in its current state is performant enough in some cases to compete with v8, but mostly in specific shapes. Background on how it got here: https://bit.ly/4djc7Tv Online demo shell/container: https://bit.ly/4nmoiUe If anyone has questions about Ant, such as the engine, im happy to answer any of them! Feedback is also appreciated, if you run your own code and hit some edge case. https://bit.ly/3Rvp84Y May 9, 2026 at 03:31AM

Show HN: Armorer – A secure local control plane for AI agents https://bit.ly/4f3W7Hu

Show HN: Armorer – A secure local control plane for AI agents Hey HN, I built Armorer because I was tired of two things: 1. The absolute "dependency hell" of setting up new AI agents (Codex, OpenClaw, etc.). 2. The security risk of giving powerful local agents broad access to my host machine. Armorer is a secure local control plane that manages the lifecycle of your agents. It uses Docker for true process isolation and provides a unified UI/CLI for monitoring and job tracking. One feature I’m particularly excited about: you can point an existing coding agent at the Armorer repo, and it will autonomously install and configure the entire stack for you securely. Source: https://bit.ly/4cZsdTv Website: https://bit.ly/3ONr08A I’d love to hear your thoughts on the architecture and how you're handling agent security locally. May 8, 2026 at 01:38AM

Show HN: Dreamwork – a job search site I made after Indeed fired my pregnant wif https://bit.ly/4tVTzjf

Show HN: Dreamwork – a job search site I made after Indeed fired my pregnant wif Hey, I’m Colin and I have a fun story for you. My 7 month pregnant wife was laid off from Indeed (she was a PM there) back in December. This pissed me off quite a bit, as she was supposed to get 6 months leave and instead got fired. So I spent the last five months working part time to build Dreamwork, a platform aiming to make the job search experience actually better with AI (not just mass application spam). I started with just a telegram bot doing scraping, then advanced to Google Embeddings 2.0 for vectorizing the jobs, built out a tight 6 axis scorecard for both the user and each job. Then I actually got to use my English degree (lol) to optimize the prompt for custom per-job resumes and cover letters to make them not sound like - again - shitty AI. Most AI cover letters have a kind of consistently dead quality. They use all the keywords and somehow communicate nothing. I absolutely hate that, so I’ve been fairly obsessive about making the output feel more like a decent human draft: specific but restrained, and not stuffed with keywords. It is now useful enough that I think strangers can try it and find serious value. What it does today: - indexes ~100k curated tech jobs - tries to avoid stale/duplicate aggregator garbage - uses semantic matching instead of only keyword search - generates an “application pack” for each job: tailored resume, cover letter, and answers to common/custom questions - lets the user edit everything before applying - helps keep track of saved jobs and generated materials Auto apply is the part I’m conflicted about. I do t think blindly spraying applications is good for the candidates (chance of hiring is already low, even with hard work and customization), recruiters (they’re swamped), or the world (we don’t need more slop). I’ll build auto apply out in some format, but I want to be thoughtful about it. I also built out a whole research section to map out layoffs and hiring trends. This will start to be super useful in a month or two. Anyways - it’s all free to use right now. Built originally out of spite, now becoming a real product. I’d love to get feedback on what elements would truly make this the career companion you’re looking for. Not - resume spray and pray platform, but something that will actually help you navigate this insane hiring economy we’re in.

Show HN: I indexed 8,643 BSides talks across 227 chapters and 6 continents https://bit.ly/4tQWbyL

Show HN: I indexed 8,643 BSides talks across 227 chapters and 6 continents Hi HN, I'm Roland, and for the past few weeks, I've been building AllBSides — a directory of every BSides conference talk uploaded to YouTube. As of today, 8,643 talks from 5,927 speakers across 227 chapters in 68 countries. Combined runtime is 280 days. The transcripts come to about 60 million words. The archive came together in stages: 1. Manually map every BSides chapter's YouTube channel 2. Pull every video and transcript from Supabase 3. Run each transcript through Haiku for tag extraction (tools, topics, difficulty, team, talk style, research method, and much more) 4. Run results through Sonnet for categorization and dedup 5. Final pass goes through Opus for verification 6. Do a manual verification - at one time, the pipeline showed over 16k AI suggestions for manual verification. Today, most are resolved. Total LLM cost so far: about €200. The whole pipeline is rebuildable from scratch. Each talk gets its own page with embedded video, full transcript, speakers, tags, and "related talks." Each tool/framework/protocol/standard mentioned across the corpus gets its own page (3,968 distinct technologies tracked). Some interesting facts I gathered while building it: -(A) The site is currently 94% bot traffic. Of that, about 80,000 hits/month are AI training crawlers (ClaudeBot, GPTBot, meta-externalagent). Within 7 days of the talks archive going live, all major AI labs had ingested the entire corpus. The discovery cascade was startling to watch in real time. -(B) The taxonomy work was the hardest part. Distinguishing "tools" from "frameworks" from "protocols" from "concepts" sounds easy until you have 5,000 ambiguous extracted entities. The 3-tier LLM pipeline helped a lot — Haiku alone was too noisy, Opus alone was too expensive. -(C) Top tools mentioned: Wireshark (343), PowerShell (342), Metasploit (332), Burp Suite (322), GitHub (296), VirusTotal (273), Docker (253), Splunk (251), Nmap (247), MITRE ATT&CK (237). The list reflects what BSides talks actually discuss, not what vendors curate. -(D) May is the peak BSides month — 29 events, 17% of all events with dates. -(E) The top 1% of talks (86 videos by view count) account for 51% of all viewership. The other 99% are deeply niche, often the only video record of a specific technique. The stack is intentionally lean: Go, SQLite, vanilla JavaScript, BunnyCDN. Static rendering at build time. No frameworks, no client-side state. The site costs about €50/month to run. The data behind this post and much more can be found in the site footer, under the link "stats". Happy to answer questions about the data pipeline, the taxonomy decisions, or what the AI crawler patterns looked like as the archive went live. Feedback on what to build next is genuinely welcome — I'm a solo dev figuring this out as I go. — Roland (parkado) https://bit.ly/4tPx930 May 4, 2026 at 11:10PM

Show HN: Kula – a family health platform that makes sense of your data https://bit.ly/4tQmIfS

Show HN: Kula – a family health platform that makes sense of your data My parents are in India, I'm in the US. Their health system was continuous WhatsApp photos of lab reports, vague updates over the phone, and me finding out about doctor visits weeks later. So I built Kula. Upload lab reports (photo, PDF, WhatsApp forward) and it have them parsed and track trends. Connect a wearable and track daily health signals as well as your baselines. Everything goes into one record you can search and review over time. There's a chat layer where you can ask questions in plain language like, "what's my dad's cholesterol trend showing", and get a sourced answer from your own data. Primarily built it for my family. My parents told me they'd use it even without me, just to have their records organized before doctor visits. That truly changed how I think about it. Looking for feedback on this platform. Would you use this? What are your thoughts? What's missing? https://bit.ly/4cP9HNA May 4, 2026 at 05:40AM

Show HN: Use an Android Phone as an HTTP Proxy https://bit.ly/4upfSNZ

Show HN: Use an Android Phone as an HTTP Proxy I created a simple project to allow you to use a phone as a web proxy. This is not a proxy for the phone, its a way to proxy web traffic from elsewhere via the phone. One practical use case is accessing geo-restricted content. If you have a trusted contact in the country with an Android phone, this can serve as a simple alternative to a commercial VPN. To set it up you need to run a proxy server which can run as a docker container. You then need to install the app on the Android phone which will connect to the server. Finally you configure a browser to use the proxy server as the HTTP/HTTPS proxy.
