Hacker News Reader

Having read some of what this project had to do to fit 3DS, if you think “the only thing learned was how to use LLMs” then I don’t know what to say to you other than...are you sure about that?

msephtonon Who assigned Cut, Copy, Paste, and Undo to X, C, V, and Z?

Maybe it doesn't, but it's interesting history that a decision made can withstand the tests of time as much as this.

msephtonon Initial Opinion of Amiga

USENET in 1986. Amazing.

msephtonon Nordwand Mono – A monospace font for coders and adventurers

I’m not sure I’ll use this (I’m an MD IO Trial user) but I will say that finding a font you can read without thinking is one of the greatest productivity boosts as a developer.

msephtonon A faster Bluetooth Over-The-Air update for the ESP32: from minutes to seconds

Another day, another groundrun ESP32 post

msephtonon What ArtCraft's Vibe-Coded Apps Say About Adobe

Did you try the downloads?

msephtonon 15-year search for a band that charted once and vanished

DiscMaster can also search within archives by filename or content of the file! So if you knew the name of a theme that might have been another route.

msephtonon A browser-native classic Visual Basic VB6 IDE

Super cool! Brings back so many memories. I wrote some very popular apps in VB back in the Windows 9x era: hot corners, screen savers, notes app, and many more.

msephtonon ESP-SDR Firmware Turns ESP32 into a 2.4/5 GHz Software-Defined Radio (SDR)

This has been posted once a day for the last 5 days. I only know because my reader has saved search capability with ESP32 as a keyword.

msephtonon Hole Punch: Sling your spaceship around gravitational fields

Tap the black hole and it gives you ability to add and remove.

msephtonon ADHD, autism or complex trauma? [pdf]

I recommend seeing a specialist for a proper diagnosis. It'll be worth it.

msephtonon Apple Pass Designer

When I worked at Apple a dozen years ago I pushed hard for this to be built. We were using our own slap dash solution, but we wanted something everybody could use.

Better late than never!

msephtonon Show HN: Ito – streaming neural TTS for the ESP32-S3 (4.9 MB, no NPU, no cloud)

Curious why it's not been tested on hardware?

msephtonon ModRetro + Codex

So the ModRetro × OpenAI collab only requires a free plugin for you to develop GBC games in the Codex the app

But play-testing on a real Chromatic requires a firmware update and API key that came in the box with the DevDay devices

https://support.modretro.com/en_us/chromatic-devday-edition-...

I just tried it and prompted a GBC version of YOYOZO, my GOTY game. Wild times.

msephtonon RSS Feeds for Last.fm

Cool!

I'm wondering why my recommended tracks are different between the two feed formats? Same uid as here.

Also, my JSON feed doesn't seem to validate and is not served with the proper MIME type.

msephtonon ESP32 can stream I/Q up to 80MSPS 10bit from 2GHz/5GHz by tapping Wifi/BT stage

> turn supported chips into low-cost software-defined radio receivers for the 2.4 GHz band

msephtonon Novelist accused of using AI to write book removed from French prize list

Sad to see such unfounded claims tarnishing the work of this author. Surely it should be innocent until proven guilty. These text analysers all say different things about a piece of text, yet here the result of one has taken away this guy’s prize and perhaps career. There’s a legal case for defamation, surely?

msephtonon NOTE4 – a $55 ESP32 S3 e-ink task display with open API's

Which of these images is a photo of a real physical device? It seems to me that they are all a mix of renders and ai images (the ones where the speaker holes are not evenly spaced, and with nonsense text on nearby keyboards). I don't necessarily mind, but such images don't sell the device. I want to see a real one being used.

Also: I can buy it on AliExpress right now so I don't see the point of a waitlist.

msephtonon Ask HN: Who's still keeping a DOS machine up because the business depends on it?

Made my day.
