Show HN: Rmp, a Subsonic music player for generating playlists on the flyhttps://github.com/codesoap/rmpWhen listening to music, I often don't play whole albums, but string together songs that capture my current mood. In the past, I've written a tool that records my hearings and generates suggestions from my usual listening patterns[1] and used it with some scripts around mpd. This made my way of listening to music easier and worked decently, but I wished I could also sync and use this with my phone.Recently I've discovered Subsonic, a protocol for music servers and players. It caught my eye, because it supports "scrobbling" (apparently the common term for "recording hearings") and generating similar-song-lists. Pretty much exactly what I had been doing and many music players support this feature to create "instant playlists". With a little bit of hacking[2], it was easy to integrate my existing, collected hearing patterns into a Subsonic server.While I found a decent Subsonic client for my phone, I didn't find a terminal music player that worked for my style of listening. So I wrote rmp

Show HN: linecast – weather, radar, tides and maps in the terminalhttps://terminaltrove.com/linecast/I've been working on linecast, a free and open source collection of six terminal applications: weather, radar, sunshine, moon, tides, and maps.It's as if the Old Farmer's Almanac was built for Minitel.I made it because I'd been using the terminal a lot more over the past couple of years, I'm opinionated about weather forecast IA and design, and I liked the idea of making useful little terminal desk ornaments.The applications use ANSI color and Unicode braille characters rather than graphics. They reflow as the terminal is resized and derive their colors from your current terminal palette, including when the theme changes while they're running. They're mouse friendly where it makes sense.There's no account or required API key. Forecasts and air quality come from Open-Meteo; alerts, tides, and radar use various public sources; Sun and Moon positions are calculated locally; and the maps use OpenStreetMap-derived vector data and public elevation tiles. The code is just the Python stdlib wi

Show HN: Room Acoustic and HRTF Simulatorhttps://nikhil-verma.com/room-signal/I've been fascinated with how sounds bounce around the room and enter your ears, and how you can find out with two sets of microphones on your head whether the audio is coming from front or behind you.So I tried to build a simulator that allows you to play different kinds of audio in different scenarios and it traces their acoustics and bounces around the room and lets you play them on your headphones to feel like how it would feel if you were in that room.Source: https://github.com/NikhilVerma/room-signal

Show HN: Budgethole.com – Close the US federal deficit yourselfhttps://budgethole.comHi HN,I could never quite grasp the large numbers floating around in the articles and discussions about the federal deficit. So I built BudgetHole.com as a personal side project, a web app that lets you play with 150+ policy options and see how they would affect the federal budget.

Venezuela: Two months after the quake, 12,500 people still live in temporary campshttps://www.france24.com/en/venezuela-two-months-after-the-quake-12-500-people-still-live-in-temporary-campsTwo months after two earthquakes struck Venezuela, more than 12,500 people are still living in temporary camps in La Guaira. Many survivors are still struggling to come to terms with the loss of loved ones and their homes. They have been forced to adapt to precarious living conditions, exposed to the elements, with little access to medical care and humanitarian aid. France 24 reporters Herminia Fernández and Julio Uribarris visited three camps housing earthquake survivors.

Ukraine: Zelensky asks for more Patriot interceptors as civilian deaths hit highest level since 2022https://www.france24.com/en/ukraine-zelensky-asks-for-more-patriot-interceptors-as-civilian-deaths-hit-highest-level-since-2022Kryvyi Rih is still digging through the wreckage. The Russian strike on a shopping centre there, in President Zelensky's own hometown, has now claimed at least sixteen lives, with several people still unaccounted for. It has added urgency to the request Zelensky has been making for months: he needs Patriot interceptors as the threat of winter looms. Camille Knight has more.

How Trump's tariffs work to redistribute wealth up the food chainhttps://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/trump-tariffs-redistribute-wealth-up-food-chain-9.7316144?cmp=rssThough nominally aimed at making foreign "cheaters" pay, the U.S. president's tariffs have in fact been a powerful domestic mechanism for taking money from poor and middle-class Americans and giving it to large corporations that have been adept at playing the system — one that's heavily influenced by lobbying and political donations.

Why can AI generate Super Mario but not a wedge ramp for my robot vacuum?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49405520I've been puzzled by something: AI generation can produce an elaborate figurine, a cartoon character, even a convincing Super Mario — yet it can't reliably make a simple wedge ramp so my robot vacuum can climb a step. For context: I bought a Bambu P2S but can't model. I tried the "describe it and get a model" AIs — the output is unusable, you can't adjust it, it's never quite what I meant. I tried having an agent write Python to build geometry directly — it tops out at simple primitives. What finally worked: geometric decomposition. I break a complex part into ordered, grouped steps, describe each as a small spec, and let an agent execute them in Blender (via blender-mcp). That process turned out to abstract into a small engine — the key insight being it converts the 3D spatial reasoning LLMs are bad at, into the structured code they're good at. I wrote it up here: https://github.com/zhuchaokn/spec-3d-model My questions: - Why is "functional part" generation so much weaker than "figuri

Where are people finding GPU capacity?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49403759Is it just me or is GPU capacity surprisingly hard to find right now , even in Spot pools? I’ve been trying to get H100s and the Spot pools I’ve checked are pretty much always full.I ended up trying MI350/MI355s on DigitalOcean Spot and have been running them for about a week without getting interrupted. Curious if anyone else has tried them? How often are you actually getting reclaimed?Also, where are you guys finding capacity these days?
