Show HN: A modern Jupyter client for macOShttps://satyrn.app/I love Jupyter – it's how I learned to code back when I was working as a scientist. But I was always frustrated that there wasn't a simple and elegant app that I could use with my Mac. I made do by wrapping JupyterLab in a chrome app, and then more recently switching to VS Code to make use of Copilot. I've always craved a more focused and lighter-weight experience when working in a notebook. That's why I created Satyrn.It starts up really fast (faster time-to-execution than VS Code or JupyterLab), you can launch notebooks right from the Finder, and the design is super minimalist. It's got an OpenAI integration (use your own API key) for multi-cell generation with your notebook as context (I'll add other LLMs soon). And many more useful features like a virtual environment management UI, Black code formatting, and easy image/table copy buttons.Full disclosure: it's built with Electron. I originally wrote it in Swift but couldn't get the editor experience to where I wanted it. Now it suppJul 7, 2024 5:59 PM

Ask HN: What book bit, stung and shook you deeply?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40878040Someone here quoted Kafka [1] on what types of books to read:Books that “bite and sting”. That “wake us up with a blow to the head”. And which “affect us like a disaster, that hurts us deeply, like the death of someone we loved more than ourselves”.Ever read a book like that? Which was it? How did it affect you? What did reading it do to you?[1] Brief an Oskar Pollak, 27. Januar 1904. , https://homepage.univie.ac.at/werner.haas/1904/br04-003.htm.English (ChatGPT): "I believe one should only read those books which bite and sting. If the book we are reading does not wake us up with a blow to the head, then why read the book? To make us happy, as you write? My God, we would be just as happy if we had no books, and those books that make us happy, we could write ourselves if necessary.

Show HN: Quick Calories – Efficient Weight Loss for Software Engineershttps://calories.joeldare.comI faced a sudden career twist recently and I used it as motivation to revisit and improve Quick Calories, an app that helps software engineers quickly track their daily calorie intake.The original idea was born out of my own struggle to find a dieting app that fit my style - something that allowed me to quickly log calories without tedious manual entry. And now, I'm excited to share Quick Calories with HN!What is Quick Calories?- A minimalist app that makes calorie tracking lightning fast.- It keeps a running calorie total and automatically resets daily. Just track your intake and move on with your life.- The math-friendly input lets you perform arithmetic operations on calorie counts, making it easier to log complex meals or snacks.As someone who spends hours staring at screens, I know how hard it is to prioritize health when work-life balance feels like an oxymoron. Quick Calories can be an indispensable tool for a busy software engineer.I'd love to see more software engineers using Jul 3, 2024 7:02 PM

Show HN: Eidos – Offline alternative to Notionhttps://github.com/mayneyao/eidosI'm a big fan of Notion, having used it for 7 years. When I first met Notion, it was just a block document editor, and it didn't excite me until it released the Database. Later, I learned about Airtable, and a bunch of similar products, all of them are SaaS, with such powerful tables but poor performance. Why isn't there a personal offline version table? Most of the time, I don't need to collaborate with others. What I really want is a personalized, offline version of Notion with better performance and more flexibility. So that I can have full control over my data.Notion, like most SaaS products, is not open-source, so I can't customize it to my heart's content. I can only wait and vote for new features, but I can code, and I don't want to wait. I really like the concepts of FOSS, solid, and local-first. SaaS could die. Long may the SQLite. So, I built Eidos based on sqlite for managing my personal data throughout my lifetime in one place. Eidos is a long-term project for me. It looks Jun 21, 2024 6:30 AM
