Show HN: ProbeDeck an iOS app for ClickHouse incident triagehttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49286299As a backend developer dealing with heavy applications, I run a ClickHouse node with 3.42 TB compressed and 19.10 TB uncompressed amongst its active components. I built ProbeDeck to run some operations on a cluster, inspect a cluster, and read some system logs on my iPhone or iPad with no laptop.The application presents some system tables as screens for running a query, replica state, storage pressure, and mutations. It pulls some stats from the system.metric_log table and shows 0 when that table is not active. One can inspect the system and decide if they want to execute KILL QUERY or KILL MUTATION. Those screens have a confirmation screen. While working with destructive SQL in the editor, a confirmation is needed and is type-safe.The app sends ClickHouse requests via HTTP or HTTPS to the ClickHouse server, or via one SSH bastion if a single SSH hop is needed. ProbeDeck does not proxy requests for a database. It stores passwords, SSH private keys, TLS client certificates, and the secrAug 13, 2026 2:14 PM

Show HN: Llmem – Local persistent memory for AI coding, no embeddingshttps://github.com/netrixone/llmemHi folks. This part of AI coding always felt really dumb: after working on many projects it repeats the same mistakes, uses awkward patterns or looks up stuff over and over. It just does not remember. Skills exists, but I don't like maintaining lots of markdown files. There were other solutions for this and I'm sure there are even more now, but I simply did not fancy those for one reason or another.So I wrote my own good-enough persistent memory which easily integrates with all AI coding tools I use. Lightweight, local, 1 Go binary + 1 SQLite file. Speaks MCP + good old REST API I can curl.After some testing I settled on BM25 lexical search with optional WordNet synonym expansions - no embeddings, no vector DB, no external API calls. A downside is English memories only, but that's OK for me.Memory_context pulls priority-tagged memories at session start, auto-consolidation merges near-duplicates to prevent bloat. Later I added optional memory types, project scopes and hashtags.I've beenAug 7, 2026 8:40 AM

Show HN: RunNburn – Run a 295B Moe from a 98GB GGUF on a 64GB RAM Desktophttps://github.com/coderredlab/runNburnrunNburn is an Apache-2.0 Rust inference engine for quantized GGUF models that are too big for your fast memory.The core idea: weights stay file-backed (mmap), host residency stays under an explicit byte budget (--ram-budget), and GPU caches are sized from detected free/total VRAM — never from device-name presets. There is no conversion step, no sidecar cache files, no silent requantization. The GGUF on disk is the single source of truth.The result that made me want to post this: Tencent's Hy3 (295B total / 21B active sparse MoE, a single 97.8 GiB Q2_K GGUF) runs on my desktop with 64 GB of RAM and one consumer NVIDIA GPU. The file is larger than RAM and VRAM combined; the selected experts for each token are pulled on demand (the newest path batches O_DIRECT reads through io_uring), while the pretrained routing is left untouched. On the same machine, same prompt, same decode length, a warm-run median gave ~5.5 tok/s decode vs ~2.0 tok/s for llama.cpp.To be upfront about scope: for modeJul 30, 2026 1:30 AM

Show HN: LLM-spend – Audit your OpenAI/Anthropic API spend locallyhttps://github.com/kliukovkin/llm-spendI build spend-pacing systems for ad auctions for a living, and my side-project agent workloads still kept surprising me with API bills I couldn't explain. When I asked around how people attribute LLM spend, the answers were the provider dashboard or a spreadsheet.llm-spend is a local CLI that pulls usage from the OpenAI/Anthropic reporting APIs, breaks spend down by key, model and project, projects end-of-month, and flags days that look abnormal against the same weekday's history. It also does a second, independent read of the provider's cost API and warns if the totals disagree by more than 1%. That check exists because I don't want to ship you a wrong report: it catches unit, pagination and grouping bugs in my own pipeline. It checks against the provider's cost API, not your invoice — credits, tax and non-API charges live elsewhere.Keys are the ugly part. OpenAI admin keys can be scoped down to read-only usage/cost access, but admin keys require a Team plan. Anthropic admin keys can'Jul 26, 2026 4:20 PM

Three minutes later, without you at the keyboard, CORE picks it up, pulls the relevant context from your codebase, drafts a plan in the task description, and spins up a Claude Code session in the background to do the work. You review the output in the task chat and unblock it when it gets stuck.Every AI tool today is reactive. You open a chat, brief the agent, it responds. Before anything moves, you've already done the real work: opened the Sentry error, found the commit, read the Slack thread, grabbed the Linear ticket, and stitched it all together into a prompt.

Show HN: Reinhardt – Django-style Rust framework; WASM+SSR from one DSLhttps://github.com/kent8192/reinhardt-webReinhardt is a Rust web framework where one component DSL compiles to both WASM (client) and server-rendered HTML — a single file describes both sides of a page, with no separate frontend codebase, no JS build toolchain, and no duplicated types across the client/server boundary.It also bundles what Django/DRF users expect: an ORM with auto-generated migrations from #[model] macros, DI, auth, admin, REST, background tasks, and i18n. Feature flags let you pull in just what you need (minimal / standard / full), or import individual crates directly.I built it after moving from Django/DRF to Rust and repeatedly re-assembling the same Axum + ORM + migrations + auth stack for every project.Quickstart: https://reinhardt-web.dev/quickstart/v0.1.0-rc.18 release: Crates.io (published as reinhardt-web; the shorter name was taken): https://crates.io/crates/reinhardt-webBSD 3-Clause.Apr 22, 2026 1:00 PM

Show HN: I built a $9 Ahrefs alternative because raw SEO data is cheaphttps://idiotproofseo.com/Like many solo devs and indie hackers, I was paying $100+/mo for enterprise SEO tools (Ahrefs, Semrush) but only using about 5% of their features. I really just needed basic keyword research, SERP difficulty analysis, and simple rank tracking.I wanted to see what the actual floor was for raw SEO data if you stripped away the fluff and enterprise bloat.I spent the last few months wiring together different data sources to find out. I got my costs down to a few cents per report and because the data is so cheap to fetch on-demand, I packaged it into a minimalist tool which strictly focuses on the essential elements of SEO:A keyword analyzer which pulls the top 10 search results, audits them, and flags weak spots (like low DA sites or forums like Reddit) to calculate a realistic difficulty score, a keyword finder which generates hundreds of scored long-tail variations, and a rank tracker with email notifications.Because the costs on my end are so lean, I don't need to charge $100/mo - so I Apr 5, 2026 12:05 PM

Show HN: PingCRM – Open-source personal networking CRMhttps://github.com/sneg55/pingcrmHey HN,Robin Dunbar figured the human brain caps out at roughly 150 stable relationships. After that, people just fall off. Not because you stop caring, but because you can't track that many threads at once. I built PingCRM to push past that limit, not by making you remember more, but by handling the part you're bad at: noticing who's going cold and drafting something worth sending.CRMs exist, but they're built for sales teams. I wanted something for one person maintaining their own network. Specifically:(1) Pull in conversations I'm already having. Gmail threads, Telegram DMs, Twitter DMs, LinkedIn messages, no manual logging.(2) Tell me who's going cold. A relationship score (0–10) based on recency, frequency, reciprocity, and breadth of interaction.(3) Draft the message for me. Claude reads your conversation history, picks the right tone (formal vs. casual), and writes a follow-up that references why now is a good time, like a job change, a long silence, or a fundraising announcemenMar 18, 2026 10:33 AM

Help Galaxy Zoo: Tidal Tales Open Cosmic Storybookhttps://science.nasa.gov/get-involved/citizen-science/help-galaxy-zoo-tidal-tales-open-cosmic-storybook/Galaxies carry the imprints of past encounters. When they pass near one another or collide, gravity pulls their stars into long tails, thin streams, and faint shells – features that preserve the history of these dramatic events. Thanks to deep, high-resolution images from the Euclid space telescope, an ESA (European Space Agency) mission with critical contributions from NASA, we can now see these delicate structures more clearly than ever before in unprecedented numbers.Mar 12, 2026 3:41 PM

Instance segmentation model that extracts 3D geometry from 2D floor planshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47092547Hey HN,I am an ML Engineer and a full-stack software engineer. For the past few weekends, I have been working on a pipeline to solve a PropTech problem: turning messy, highly occluded 2D floor plans into clean, structured data for 3D extrusion. Originally demoed for a firm hiring for the role.The Problem: If you try to use standard object detection (bounding boxes) or basic OCR (tested Qwen, DeepSeek) on architectural plans, it fails instantly. Walls intersect, doors swings and dimension lines heavily occlude the actual structures.The Stack & Architecture: I built an instance segmentation pipeline that relies strictly on pixel-perfect masking to pull the geometry.The Backbone: Swin Transformer + Detectron2.Model trained on 1024X1024 images, with RTX 4090Inference: Inference on CPUFeb 20, 2026 7:17 PM
