Show HN: Lumical – scan any meeting invite into your calendar in seconds https://bit.ly/4i9ni3g

Show HN: Lumical – scan any meeting invite into your calendar in seconds I built an iOS app that lets you point your phone at a paper invite or screenshot, review the parsed details, and drop the event straight into your calendar, so you can capture meetings in seconds instead of typing. https://bit.ly/4a1qV9f November 19, 2025 at 07:55AM

Show HN: Kk – A tiny Bash CLI that makes kubectl faster https://bit.ly/4o2QLNC

Show HN: Kk – A tiny Bash CLI that makes kubectl faster I built "kk", a small Bash wrapper around kubectl that makes common Kubernetes workflows faster. It's not a plugin or a compiled binary. It's just a single script you can drop into ~/bin. The goal is to reduce repetitive kubectl patterns without replacing kubectl itself. Some things it helps with: - pod selection by substring (auto-fzf if available) - multi-pod logs with prefixing and grep support - quick exec into pods - checking the actual images running in pods - restarting deployments with pattern matching - port-forwarding with pod auto-selection - quick describe/top/events - context switching shortcuts Examples: kk pods api kk sh api kk logs api -f -g ERROR kk images api kk restart api kk pf api 8080:80 kk desc api kk top api kk events kk ctx kk deploys Installation: curl -o ~/bin/kk https://bit.ly/4o1TaI8 chmod +x ~/bin/kk Repo: https://bit.ly/48ims0F Happy to hear feedback, suggestions, or ideas for small helpers to improve the kubectl experience. https://bit.ly/48ims0F November 19, 2025 at 07:22AM

Show HN: Browser-based interactive 3D Three-Body problem simulator https://bit.ly/4o3MeKL

Show HN: Browser-based interactive 3D Three-Body problem simulator Features include: - Several preset periodic orbits: the classic Figure-8, plus newly discovered 3D solutions from Li and Liao's recent database of 10,000+ orbits (https://bit.ly/3X4Af4K) - Full 3D camera controls (rotate/pan/zoom) with body-following mode - Force and velocity vector visualization - Timeline scrubbing to explore the full orbital period The 3D presets are particularly interesting. Try "O₂(1.2)" or "Piano O₆(0.6)" from the Load Presets menu to see configurations where bodies weave in and out of the orbital plane. Most browser simulators I've seen have been 2D. Built with Three.js. Open to suggestions for additional presets or features! https://bit.ly/48mDOJJ November 18, 2025 at 04:00PM

Show HN: Strawk – I implemented Rob Pike's forgotten Awk https://bit.ly/4pnad8Z

Show HN: Strawk – I implemented Rob Pike's forgotten Awk Rob Pike wrote a paper, Structural Regular Expressions ( https://bit.ly/4nYg7fD ), that criticized the Unix toolset for being excessively line oriented. Tools like awk and grep assume a regular record structure usually denoted by newlines. Unix pipes just stream the file from one command to another, and imposing the newline structure limits the power of the Unix shell. In the paper, Mr. Pike proposed an awk of the future that used structural regular expressions to parse input instead of line by line processing. As far as I know, it was never implemented. So I implemented it. I attempted to imitate AWK and it's standard library as much as possible, but some things are different because I used Golang under the hood.

Show HN: Discussion of ICT Model – Linking Information, Consciousness and Time https://bit.ly/3XxEEx5

Show HN: Discussion of ICT Model – Linking Information, Consciousness and Time Hi HN, I’ve been working on a conceptual framework that tries to formalize the relationship between: – informational states, – their minimal temporal stability (I_fixed), – the rate of informational change (dI/dT), – and the emergence of time, processes, and consciousness-like dynamics. This is not a final theory, and it’s not metaphysics. It’s an attempt to define a minimal, falsifiable vocabulary for describing how stable patterns persist and evolve in time. Core ideas: – I_fixed = any pattern that remains sufficiently stable across time to allow interaction/measurement. – dI/dT = the rate at which such patterns change. Time is defined as a relational metric of informational change (dI/dT), but the arrow of time does not arise from within the system — it emerges from an external temporal level, a basic temporal background. The model stays strictly physicalist: it doesn’t require spatial localization of information and doesn’t assume any “Platonic realm.” It simply reformulates what it means for a process to persist long enough to be part of reality. Why I’m posting here I’m looking for rigorous critique from physicists, computer scientists, mathematicians, and anyone interested in foundational models. If you see flaws, ambiguities, or missing connections — I’d really appreciate honest feedback. A full preprint (with equations, phenomenology, and testable criteria) and discussion is here: https://bit.ly/49pemED DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.17584782 Thanks in advance to anyone willing to take a look. https://bit.ly/49pemED November 18, 2025 at 03:25AM

Show HN: Parqeye – A CLI tool to visualize and inspect Parquet files https://bit.ly/4pfa5rM

Show HN: Parqeye – A CLI tool to visualize and inspect Parquet files I built a Rust-based CLI/terminal UI for inspecting Parquet files—data, metadata, and row-group-level structure—right from the terminal. If someone sent me a Parquet file, I used to open DuckDB or Polars just to see what was inside. Now I can do it with one command.

Show HN: Hirelens – AI Resume Analyzer for ESL and Global Job Seekers https://bit.ly/49nUOAl

Show HN: Hirelens – AI Resume Analyzer for ESL and Global Job Seekers I built Hirelens ( https://bit.ly/3LNcJGQ ) after seeing many ESL and international job seekers struggle with resumes that don’t match job descriptions or parse cleanly in ATS systems, even when they have strong experience. What it does: Extracts skills/experience from a resume Compares it to a target job description Flags unclear or “non-native” phrasing Suggests clearer rewrites Identifies ATS parsing issues Deletes files after processing (no storage) Tech: Next.js + FastAPI, lightweight CV parsing → embeddings → scoring logic, LLM-based suggestions, no data retention. I’d love feedback on: parsing edge cases rewriting clarity what features matter most for job seekers or hiring managers Try it here: https://bit.ly/3LNcJGQ https://bit.ly/47LgYLO November 17, 2025 at 12:37AM

Show HN: SelenAI – Terminal AI pair-programmer with sandboxed Lua tools https://bit.ly/49Fxq1B

Show HN: SelenAI – Terminal AI pair-programmer with sandboxed Lua tools I’ve been building a terminal-first AI pair-programmer that tries to make every tool call transparent and auditable. It’s a Rust app with a Ratatui UI split into three panes (chat, tool activity, input). The agent loop streams LLM output, queues write-capable Lua scripts for manual approval, and records every run as JSONL logs under .selenai/logs. Key bits: Single tool, real guardrails – the LLM only gets a sandboxed Lua VM with explicit helpers (rust.read_file, rust.list_dir, rust.http_request, gated rust.write_file, etc.). Writes stay disabled unless you opt in and then approve each script via /tool run. Transparent workflow – the chat pane shows the conversation, tool pane shows every invocation + result, and streaming keeps everything responsive. CTRL shortcuts for scrolling, clearing logs, copy mode, etc., so it feels like a normal TUI app. Pluggable LLMs – there’s a stub client for offline hacking and an OpenAI streaming client behind a trait. Adding more providers should just be another module under src/llm/. Session history – every exit writes a timestamped log directory with full transcript, tool log, and metadata about whether Lua writes were allowed. Makes demoing, debugging, and sharing repros way easier. Lua ergonomics – plain io.* APIs and a tiny require("rust") module, so the model can write idiomatic scripts without shelling out. There’s even a /lua command if you want to run a snippet manually. Repo (MIT): https://bit.ly/47YwPp7 Would love feedback on: Other providers or local models you’d like to see behind the LLM trait. Additional sandbox helpers that feel safe but unlock useful workflows. Ideas for replaying those saved sessions (web viewer? CLI diff?). If you try it, cargo run, type, and you’ll see the ASCII banner + chat panes. Hit me with issues or PRs—there’s a CONTRIBUTING.md in the works and plenty of roadmap items (log viewer, theming, Lua helper packs) if you’re interested. https://bit.ly/47YwPp7 November 16, 2025 at 12:58AM

Show HN: TranscribeAndSplit – AI that transcribes audio and splits it by meaning https://bit.ly/3K3UWe1

Show HN: TranscribeAndSplit – AI that transcribes audio and splits it by meaning Hi HN, I built a small tool to solve a recurring pain when editing podcasts: scrubbing back and forth just to find where a sentence or idea actually ends. How it works: - Upload an audio file (MP3/WAV/M4A) - AI transcribes the audio and suggests cut points at sentence or paragraph boundaries - Automatically split and export segments, or adjust them manually if needed Website: https://bit.ly/4nYxMDD This came out of my own frustration with editing long recordings and manually hunting for the right cut points. I wanted something that actually understands the content before splitting it. I’d love feedback — especially on edge cases like interviews, lectures, or multi-speaker audio. What features would make this more useful? November 14, 2025 at 05:37AM
