wizenheimer··on Palmier-Pro: macOS video editor built for AI
Ran into Palmier on X and had to try it with Claude. I have to admit, my first impressions were pretty good. The one thing I found myself wishing for was a way to describe stuff better. Sometimes I know exactly what effect I’m looking at in a video, but I have no idea what it’s called, which makes it hard to recreate. Maybe a library for visual effects with prompt examples woudl have made it easier :)
wizenheimer··on Show HN: cuTile Rust: Safe, data-race-free GPU kernels in Rust
Looks interesting. For someone already comfortable with Triton, what's the strongest argument for choosing cuTile Rust instead?

Is the main differentiator the ownership-based safety model, tighter integration with Rust ecosystems, or idk are there workloads where the Tile IR pipeline has advantages beyond language ergonomics?

wizenheimer··on Ask HN: What are tools you have made for yourself since the advent of AI?
Ahh, got it. I didn't realize HN did that. Thanks for letting me know! That probably explains it :)

I shipped a QA harness for Claude Code. Instead of clicking through flows by hand, it reads your code diffs, identifies the affected UI flows, and tests them in real browser

Plus after each run you get screen recordings with console logs, network requests, HARs, and Playwright traces so you can inspect exactly what the agent did :)

P.S. I attempted to do a Show HN but got flagged for some reason

wizenheimer··on Show HN: TinkerBird – A Chrome-native vector database
This is helpful, thanks mate. Appreciate it.

Appreciate the feedback, mate

> I don't understand the "Chrome" part at all

It uses, relies and depends on Chrome exposed primitive such IndexedDB. Hence the term chrome native.

Honestly, didn't give much thought to it. Just rolled with it :D

Imagine this. You stumbled across this insane search technique, which knows what you want. It doesn't care if you know the exact keywords or not, it just gets what you're after. We call it Vector Search / Semantic Search. Cool stuff right? You don't have to be a keyword wizard to get your stuff. But there's a problem.

Unlike it's keyword search counterpart it expensive. Order of magnitude expensive. All because you need to maintain a vector search index and keep it available server side.

Enter Tinkerbird. This little library takes the heavy lifting and pushes it client side. Stream your embeddings, front it via CDN or cache it on client. Now you get benefits of vector index without the costs of maintaining one.

Thanks, mate. Skill issue :D

Thanks, mate. Incase, you feel like playing around. https://tinkerboard.vercel.app/

Thanks, mate. I guess the README is dated. Here's a sample app built around tinkerbird. Make it yours :D

That's right, it should. If it supports indexeddb, it supports tinkerbird. Ref: https://caniuse.com/indexeddb

PS: Pretty early nonetheless, hacked it together during last Christmas. Gotta make it usable.

PPS: I guess the README is dated. Built out a sample app for Tinkerbird. Feel free to take a look: https://github.com/wizenheimer/tinkerboard
