Show HN: Open Finance Insurance sandbox (OAuth2, quotes → policies)https://github.com/Rp12/uae-openfinance-test-backendMost “Open Finance” repos stop at account aggregation. But when you try building against insurance APIs, you hit gaps fast: no real quote workflows, no consent flows, and no FAPI-compliant auth. So I built a UAE Open Finance Insurance testing backend.It simulates the full lifecycle: OAuth2 FAPI-style authentication (JWT) Consent creation and authorization Quote generation across 7 insurance types Quote → policy conversion Webhook events and error handling Example flow: create consent → generate quote → accept → issue policy. It’s Dockerized, has Swagger docs, and is designed to mimic how a real TPP would integrate. This is a testing backend, not production infra. Curious what others found hardest when integrating Open Banking / Insurance APIs.

Show HN: Using Telegram as an indexed system for geo-noteshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47789821I was trying to solve a pretty simple problem: how to keep geo-notes organized and actually usable without building a multi-level UI. Instead of building another app, I started wondering if Telegram — with its search and message model — could handle more than it seems at first glance. At some point, I approached the problem from a very simple angle: What if a location could be treated as a tag? Not just a generic label, but something more concrete — essentially latitude and longitude encoded into a hashtag-like format. A representation that can always be turned back into actual coordinates. In practice, a caption might look something like this: `#geom3eaZ76OH4 ` where the links to something like `https://www.google.com/maps?q=11.453792,104.957634` So the tag acts as a compact, searchable identifier, while the link preserves the exact location in a human-friendly way. Once you have a consistent location tag, everything else falls into place quite naturally. Any Telegram-supported conten

Show HN: Count Me In, a metronome that counts numbers for youhttps://labs.tiffzhang.com/count/Hey Hacker News! I recently made me own metronome app for my music practice because I often get lost in rhythm, and I thought it might be helpful to create metronome that counted actual numbers out loud for you to help me learn to count.So, for example, if you subdivide 4/4 into 16th notes, then the metronome would say:1e+a 2e+a 3e+a 4e+aOne thing where this has been especially helpful for me is that I added support for asymmetric rhythm patterns. In pop music, it's common for songs to use a 3-3-2 rhythm pattern with eighth notes. Even though this is usually written out in 4/4, in my app, if you set the rhythm to 8/8 and explicitly define the beat groups as 3+3+2, it will count this for you! This ends up being:1+a 2+a 3+You can see an example of what that looks like here! https://labs.tiffzhang.com/count/?bpm=100&ts=8-8&sub=2&vm=co...What do other people think? I'd love to hear if this helps anyone else with their music practice or if people have thoughts on things they'd like to see f

Show HN: Hormuz Trail - Oregon Trail parody/black-box AI coding exercisehttps://hormuztrail.com/I jokingly told a co-worker Iran might make a good Oregon Trail parody. Then I built it.I wanted to see how far I could go black-boxing the app with AI. I expected a weekend of work, but getting it right took:- Three weekends- ~ $150 in Cursor spend- $50 for asset creation (Layer.ai)Core learnings:- No single model or provider is sufficient at this point. Opus + GPT 5.4 for planning. Cursor Composer for coding. Sonnet for review and more difficult stuff. Gemini 3.1 for UI and UX- I spent probably twice as much in time and tokens as I needed to - setting up a Figma-Claude MCP feedback loop would have saved me a lot of work on UI tweaks and revisions. Knowing what I wanted when I started would (obviously) have helped too.- Layer.ai was worth it for asset generation. I'll bet I could have figured out prompts given enough time, but I was able to just jump in and make the visuals and sprites I wanted for cheap.- It's worth building out skills and commands, even for throwaway projects.- Curs

Ask HN: Non AI Contributor on Project Teamshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47780915Once upon a time, we deployed a project to production and it seemed to have lots of bugs - some involving pagination not working on ui of all things.So many features felt flaky. As the team lead who reviews everyones PR and was also in charge of the deployment and monitoring, it created a lot of work for me because I had to fix every hotbug - a case in point was a pagination not working on some page or other.During some of these fixes, I felt my knowledge of the codebase wasn't as it ought to be especially since I didn't participate as much.Also, there were a lot of code that was so much more complex that I felt it will be if a human had written it - I felt my review was lacking in some capacity as well.For a while I struggled reviewing PRs that turned out to be miniature ai slops. And of course, under pressure of meeting deadlines and other things you end up merging PRs that just worked via click-testing without actually reviewing the code.In the end, I felt the codebased lacked a tea

Show HN: I built an AI music tagger for DJs, fusing metadata, audio DSP, and MLhttps://choon.appBuilt this for myself. I DJ, throw parties in Portland, and my digital library is 10k tracks and unmanageable. Tagging everything was a nonstarter.Project started as a Python script that fed track metadata into ChatGPT. Worked surprisingly well for something so basic. Friends kept asking me to run their libraries through it, and eventually I built a real app around it.The core insight: no single signal is enough. Metadata lookups miss obscure tracks. Audio analysis alone lacks context. LLMs alone hallucinate. So the app combines them:* Metadata cross-referenced against a 200M record Discogs-based DB for known releases * A Mac companion app for managing library / tagging / syncing to Rekordbox * Python DSP that analyzes audio directly (BPM, harmonic content, energy) * A trained ML model for obscure tracks the main databases don't cover * Multiple AI models handling different classification dimensions * Four tag dimensions: genre (50+ sub-genres), region, era, vibe * Syncs to Rekordbox's

Show HN: I built on-device TTS app because I run out of audiobooks on a flighthttps://loudreader.ioI didn't want to upload my own material to a third party cloud service, use mobile data for voice synthesis and kept running out of podcast queue on flights, so I spent a while trying to get Kokoro running on my iPhone.LoudReader is what came out of it - an iOS app that reads essays, articles, and books aloud, fully on-device. No account, no network after install.The model running once reading a sentence was the easy part. Making it not feel like a demo was the rest: streaming synthesis so playback starts before the sentence finishes, porting misaki to swift because I could only find python releases, thermal monitoring and strategy was a tough one as well. Runs well on iPhone 14 Pro(what I have) and newer. Tested on my mom's iPhone 12 Pro and it chokes sometimes, so I ported KittenTTS as a lighter fallback for older devices. The whole project took around 2-3 months on the weekends with claude code and codex.Smooth TTS was the hard part but the app around it grew larger than I expected

Show HN: Financial Web Tools – decision-focused calculatorshttps://financialwebtools.com/I built a set of lightweight financial decision tools (buy vs rent, house hacking, retirement, debt payoff) after trying to model a condo purchase for my girlfriend.Backstory: My girlfriend was looking into buying a condo, and I was trying to convey to her how the costs add up, even compared to renting. I knew from my personal experience with house-hacking in Seattle right out of college that the simple "renting is throwing money down the drain" philosophy can lead you to rush into buying properties without actually understanding the financial implications. I was having a tough time conveying this to her verbally, so I built a "house-hacking calculator" for her using Codex to visually model how investing a down payment and renting compares to buying a condo.Once I finished that initial prototype for her, I realized I had built something more generally useful. A lot of the available financial tools online are either overly complex for decisions like this (require modeling tax brackets,

Show HN: Three backtested quant strategies as Jupyter notebookshttps://mattitude8861.gumroad.com/l/QuantStrategyTemplatesBundleI've spent a few years building quant strategies and most of the work isn't the math — it's the plumbing: getting clean data, structuring the backtest so it doesn't look at the future, generating a readable tearsheet. I packaged three of my working strategies as self-contained notebooks so someone can go from zero to a proper backtest in an afternoon.The three strategies:1. Funding Rate Carry — Goes long assets with consistently negative funding (market paying you to hold) while hedging directional exposure with a small short on a correlated index. Data from Binance public API, no account needed.2. Momentum + Regime — Standard cross-sectional momentum with a regime filter. The regime filter uses a hidden Markov model to identify high/low volatility regimes and sizes positions down during risk-off states. This cuts most of the drawdown that raw momentum has during trend reversals.3. Vol Mean Reversion — Trades the VIX term structure spread (VIX3M/VIX ratio) against realized vol. Core id

Show HN: Tip for users with Samsung Galaxy S7 with broken displayhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47770272In 2016, I decided to spend about $800 (€700) on an upper mid-range phone for that time: the Samsung Galaxy S7. Years later, I replaced the battery with one bought on AliExpress, and it didn’t satisfy me. I also dropped the phone and replaced the screen simply because I was attached to that model—it felt much higher quality to the touch than more modern devices. I wanted it like when I first bought it: pristine. I promised myself I’d use a case and replaced its “Super AMOLED” screen. This replacement didn’t satisfy me either. It was done at an out-of-warranty repair service, and the screen quality wasn’t the same as the original. Moreover, this process caused the battery to move around inside the phone. My son dropped the S7 a second time. That case didn’t live up to its promise. I had backups of the data, but something still left me unsatisfied—I couldn’t go through a proper “mourning” for its sudden, total screen failure. But I decided it was time to move on. A couple of years later,

What other funding models exist? How viable are they?In particular, what if you sold anonymized data about trends/insights into consumer behavior to other businesses? At scale, is it conceivable that such a strategy would be profitable?Under this model, the search results would be incentivized to be as accurate as possible. There would be incentives against influencing rankings to maximize profits (which differs from the classic display ads and the Google Ad Words models) because you would want your understanding of consumer behavior to be as untainted as possible.Thoughts?
