Show HN: Dispositio – a TUI project planner that stores plans as plain Markdownhttps://systemist.net/tools/dispositioHi all! Wanted to show you guys Dispositio, a project planning TUI that saves projects to simple markdown.I always have a ton of solo projects cooking, and in the past organized and planned them in increasingly complex `ROADMAP.md` files. After working with bubbletea on another project, and after constantly manually calculating its delivery dates for myself (as my bandwidth was quite limited at the time), I realized it would be cool to combine the two!The result is Dispositio, a tool which:- Tracks milestones, set estimated durations, rearrange and modify easily, and see the estimated timeline of the whole thing (measured in weeks for now; can add sprints or other metrics later if people want it) - Lets you set up tasks and subtasks right in it (added because I found it very handy to just keep my todos right here, one per project) - Handles overdue items etc - Helps you know how many days you get on average per milestone task in order to stay on task - Saves to plain markdown so you ca

Ask HN: Has anyone shipped a self-modifying application with LLMs?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49366144In the past the model for software would typically be to ship a fixed application and then if users need some custom functionality, they would need to install a plugin or create their own.For non technical users they would have to find an existing plugin or maybe it doesn't exist so they are stuck.But I can't help but think why wouldn't for example an application just have a prompt box that builds an extension dynamically on the fly (e.g. "make me a UI panel with some buttons that does X")Obviously it would be "use at your own risk" and YMMVHave any companies or applications actually done something like this?I think modifying the real source code would get out of hand but perhaps just generating extensions that have access to a sand boxed set of safer APIs.

Show HN: TurnLeft – a one-button stock car racing game in the browserhttps://turnleft.appThe only control is tapping the screen to turn your car left.I built this mostly with Fable 5 over the course of a few weeks. I had to tweak a fair amount of the graphics to get them where I wanted, but 100% of the code was written by Fable 5.The idea was to make a really simple top-down retro racing game that runs entirely in the browser. You can also save it to your phone as a PWA.I wanted it to be immediately playable with basically no instructions, something you can open, play for a few minutes while killing time, close, and come back to later.Would love to hear what you think.

Show HN: CIYA – Purely Deterministic AIhttps://iiio.app?u=showhnHey HN, Before we roll out our fully deterministic compiled language model (CLM), figured I'd post CIYA's v0.02 for you to try out. At this point CIYA acts as a storage and logic engine for any of your prompting needs, and is available via API/Websocket integration. If your company/project frequently repeats the same prompts, needs to template out those (or any) prompts, or wants to keep your business logic directly on site instead of giving it away to cloud providers, CIYA can do all of that for you.Feel free to pull up the guide using the command R: guide to see the current list of available tools like the ability to run applications, model your own datasets and build your own independent response tables.We've developed a clear path for CLM integration, allowing for a fully compiled language model that can resolve up to 1 million tokens (on-prem) in under 200ms without ever having to access an LLM.Feel free to checkout our landing page to get in touch: https://iiio.co, or run R: cont

Show HN: Pingularity – scheduled Ookla/iperf3 speedtest dashboard, outage alertshttps://pingularity.dev/I wanted something to monitor my speed tests over time, but what's out there (speedtest-tracker, myspeed, netcheck, orb, etc.) doesn't quite have the feature set I was looking for.
