I am a UX designer. I visit and read HN for my news. You guys discuss it all - and in detail. I live in Marietta, Georgia.

The value I get from Hacker News is the aggregation of interesting web content, good discussion, and learning about new apps.

donclark··on What Meta got right with Muse
I haven't seen any ads yet but I am running nextdns. Can you share a screenshot
donclark··on Guitar tuner that uses phone accelerometer
Can an accelerometer determine when a car is having issues? Can it do the same for a human user's body?
donclark··on WebUSB Extension for Firefox
I've used Firefox successfully twice. I have nextdns on my router, not sure if that helped.
donclark··on Show HN: Tasker – An open-source desktop agent for browser and OS automation
I tried to create a workflow and it does not seem to record specific tasks. It did not record me going to a specific website, clicking on an area of text, copying of text. How can I get this to work? How do I teach or correct it? THx
donclark··on An LED panel that shows the aviation around you
That is a great live service. Thank you for sharing. We live near an airport/military and often hear loud or low flying aircraft and wonder exactly what it was. My question is if there is a log for my area that I could search by approximate date/time to try to identify the aircraft.
donclark··on An LED panel that shows the aviation around you
Very cool project. I would like a text message or a log that I could go to with timestamps and aircraft details along with the date. Is there such a service or app?
donclark··on Ask HN: How can you search your personal data?
I was referring to the username and password for these accounts being held local and not on an external server that is providing the service. I would think it would need to be open source so that we could trust it.
donclark··on Ask HN: How can you search your personal data?
I too have wondered when an option like this would become available! I am surprised that there is not a tool that will do this. *Ideally being a local solution.
donclark··on Why Fei-Fei Li and Yann LeCun are both betting on "world models"
How soon is now? In other words, when will the general public have access to an assistant or a coach with selected world models?
donclark··on Automating our home video imports
What is the value for meaning for keeping home photos or videos? Does anyone provide meta tags, detailed information or narration? How is the photo or video meaningful unless you add your detailed memories to it for others to understand?
donclark··on Non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation and exercise capacity in healthy volunteers
Which unit do you recommend? I see a wide variation of pricing and options on Amazon. *and thank you
donclark··on Delta moves to eliminate set prices, use AI to set your personal ticket price
Maybe we should start showing up at gates with the price we paid for our ticket on our chest with how/where/when we bought the ticket. Maybe a QR code with details? Links to share this data to figure out how to game the system? Cat n mouse it is!
donclark··on Show HN: EchoStream – A Local AI Agent That Lives on Your iPhone
This is the feature that I am interested in

- Memory search that connects new info with what you’ve seen before

donclark··on Show HN: A web browser agent in your Chrome side panel
Looks great. Any plans for this to work in Firefox?
donclark··on Show HN: Real-Time Gaussian Splatting
Holodeck coming soon?
donclark··on ChatGPT can accurately estimate Body Fat Percentage from photos
Can AI estimate psychological profile based on a photo of the face (face structure)?
donclark··on The Uncanny Mirror: AI, Self-Doubt, and the Limits of Reflection
Great observation. I also have had the same feeling. Upon reading your experience, it jogged my memory to the 1998 film SPHERE.

Are humans mature enough to handle the secrets of the universe? Or are we but an infant species, whose fears and phobias prevent us from embracing the big picture?

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120184/

*My apologies for being cheesy by mentioning that movie, but I do agree - that maybe AI is exposing who we are as a person.

donclark··on Show HN: I lost 15% to Congress' lag, so I built a trade-sniping tool
Does this also provide an idea of when to sell? Could it also provide an estimate of profit (percentage)?
donclark··on Running DeepSeek R1 on Your Own (cheap) Hardware – The fast and easy way
I like this. However, I did not find any minimum specs or speed. Maybe I missed? Can some point me in the right direction please?
donclark··on Google Pixel 4a's old firmware is gone, trapping users on buggy battery update
After the update from Google, my 4a did not seem to hold a charge like it did before. I read the reviews/risks and thought that my easiest options were to either roll-back the OS update, or finally give GrapheneOS a try.
donclark··on Google Pixel 4a's old firmware is gone, trapping users on buggy battery update
I resolved this problem on my Pixel 4a by installing graphene OS. YMMV.
donclark··on Hackers Claim Breach of Location Data Giant, Threaten to Leak Data
I would like to hear more details about your adventure. Do you have a blog post or similar that you can share?
donclark··on Show HN: Amurex – A cursor like copilot for meetings but also open source
I'm a noob. Is it possible to run this outside of a browser, like an exe or?

It does not appear that they sell those devices in the US?

I did find them on ebay:

donclark··on Huly
Looks nice.

TLDR: Huly, an open-source platform, serves as an all-in-one replacement of Linear, Jira, Slack, and Notion.
