Show HN: Android-based audio player for seniors – Homer Audio PlayerVideo: https://youtu.be/JR14egcqfg8It's hard to find an audiobook player that can be easily used by a non-tech-savvy, visually impaired elderly people (and I mean 85+, not 60 years old "seniors").So I have built my own.I'm terrible at hardware hacking and I wanted to make something that others can replicate easily. There are many awesome RaspberryPi based projects out there but they're not for me. So my approach was to: use off-the-shelf consumer products: a cheap tablet, a smart case etc. and write an app to push it as far as I can.I have created Homer Audio Player with the following assumptions and functionality:- it's meant for two users: a caregiver who manages content and a listener who controls only playback,- lockdown/kiosk mode - notifications, system navigation and other apps are hidden from the user - this converts an Android device to a dedicated device,- hidden settings section (optionally) - there's no chance for an accidental tap to "break" anything,- mainly for audiobook

Ask HN: Has anybody moved their local community off of Facebook groups?Facebook's feed is nonfunctional. Only some people get notification, even though they have notification for all messages turned on. Only some get the newest posts in their main feed. Sometimes I do get notifications, but only long after an urgent message was posted.Has anybody successfully moved their local community off of Facebook groups?I'm thinking about neighbor conversations/events, daycare, kindergarten, kids' classmates, sporting communities, etc.If so, where did you go? Did you build something yourself or do you self-host some open source project? Did you find a good paid alternative?

Show HN: Rtipc – real-time, zero-copy IPC for LinuxI built a small IPC library for Linux aimed at real-time and low-latency data exchange between processes.At its core is a zero-copy, wait-free, single-producer / single-consumer circular message queue living in shared memory. The design avoids locks and minimizes synchronization overhead, making it suitable for real-time or near-real-time workloads.Key features: - Zero-copy message passing via shared memory - Wait-free SPSC queue (no locks, no blocking in the fast path) - force_push mode: when the queue is full, the oldest message that hasn’t been consumed yet is dropped to make room for new data (useful when freshness > completeness, e.g. sensor streams) - Uses optional eventfds for efficient notifications - Small, dependency-free C implementation (a few thousand lines of code)This is not meant to replace general-purpose IPC systems like D-Bus. Instead, it’s designed to complement them for high-frequency or real-time data paths, while something like D-Bus handles control and configura

Show HN: Maditate – Meditation timer tracking your 10k hours to enlightenmentI got tired of meditation apps with subscriptions and gamification, so I built a simple PWA that does one thing: track your total meditation time and show progress toward 10,000 hours. Features:Timer with gong (Android) / notifications (iOS workaround for PWA limitations) Lifetime meditation tracking Set initial hours if you've already been practicing Screen dimmer (iOS requires screen on for timers) No account, no tracking, data stays local Free foreverBuilt as a PWA because I wanted it to work everywhere without app store fees. The 10,000 hours concept isn't gamification - it's just showing "this is how much you've sat" without streaks or badges.

Ask HN: Notification OverloadI'm looking for tools or methods to better curate the deluge and cacophony of notifications, emails, texts and phone calls I imagine we are all getting inundated with everyday with increasing entropy and volume.The amount of "notifications" I get everyday is overwhelming to the point where I often decide to switch my phone to "silent", leave my phone in another room, and even turn it off for periods of time. The problem with this is that I miss important things and they often get buried.I've spent hours and hours unsubscribing, deleting, uninstalling, toggling settings, but then I find myself reinstalling, resubscribing. It's just a mess, and exhausting to just think about.The reason I'm writing this is partially to vent. I just realized that my closest friend's birthday was a few weeks ago. I had it in my calendar, but never saw the notification. Yes, I should be more organized and Yes, it's not the end of the world. but damnit, i get so much crap from this bionic appendage, and still

Show HN: Meepr – A quiet, self building social platformHi! :)I built meepr, where AI agents audit the code, file bug tickets, propose features, and implement changes.The app itself started as standard microblogging 1.0 stuff – auth, profiles, following, likes, "remeeps", DMs, notifications etc.There is purposefully no search, no recommendations, always chronological, no injected content, no easy way to be found if you don't want to be outside of sharing stuff yourself to your own network, just like the good old days.On meepr, hashtags act more like Quora topics than post tags. An AI agent called the Tag Agent analyzes posting patterns for each hashtag, while a User Agent builds opinion profiles on everyone based on their meep history – topic affinity, expertise signals, behavior patterns. When you post to a hashtag, the system evaluates whether you belong there. New users get cold start handling. The idea is that in theory #machinelearning should surface people who actually know ML, not whoever's loudest, we'll see. :)Then there's the self

Show HN: I built a tool to sort a Northern Lights dataset for a CV modelHi HN,I live in the Arctic Circle, where the Northern Lights are frequently visible. I set up a 24/7 live stream of the sky, both as an early warning system for when the aurora is active and to share the view with everyone.As part of this project, I wanted to hook a computer vision model to the video feed to automatically detect auroral activity and send notifications. I quickly ran into two problems:1. There were no pre-trained models for this, which meant I had to train my own. 2. Training a model requires a large, well-organized dataset. Getting the dataset right involves frequent sorting, tweaking, and updating thousands of images.I tried to manage my images with traditional file explorers, Darktable, and many other tools, but none of them felt efficient enough for the task. This led me down a bit of a yak-shaving journey, and Picsort was born.Picsort is a keyboard-first desktop app (with Vim-like HJKL navigation) designed to do one thing: rapidly sort large batches of images into

Show HN: 2,500 free AWS certification flashcards (built on AWS)I built a free study tool for AWS certifications: [AWSomecards](https://awsomecards.com).It’s a static-first app: pure HTML/CSS/vanilla JS on the frontend, with flip animations via CSS transforms and study modes (core concepts, comparisons, quick facts). Flashcard data lives in S3 as JSON, served through Lambda (Node.js 20) + API Gateway, cached globally at CloudFront. All infrastructure is managed via CloudFormation.The cards are immutable and cached aggressively at the edge. Rate limiting is enforced at both Lambda (30 req/min/IP) and API Gateway (50 rps, burst 100). Monitoring is wired up through CloudWatch alarms and SNS notifications.The learning model is simple: tiered flashcards mapped to AWS exam objectives, with a progressive mode that steps learners through increasing difficulty. The goal is to make high-quality certification prep available for free, without gatekeeping. There are currently 2,500+ cards across Cloud Practitioner, Solutions Architect Associate, Advanced Networ

Tasks Per Day – A minimalist productivity app that worksBuilt a Flutter app that limits you to 3 daily tasks. No feature bloat, no subscriptions, just focus on what matters. Born from a Reddit discussion about simple living.The ProblemMost productivity apps suffer from feature creep. They start simple but gradually add calendars, teams, AI assistants, notifications, analytics, and eventually become the very complexity they promised to solve. I was drowning in a 20-item daily to-do list when I found a Reddit thread in r/simpleliving discussing the "three tasks rule."The Solution3 Tasks Per Day does exactly what the name suggests. Each day, you choose three tasks that matter most. That's it.Core features:1. Plan 3 tasks per day (morning/afternoon/evening) 2. Optional calendar sync with device reminders 3.

Show HN: I built ServBay – An integrated local dev env for Mac (Windows coming)Hey HN,I built a dev env called ServBay. Like many of you, I've spent countless hours wrestling with local development setups. Juggling different project requirements, language versions, SSL certs, database conflicts, and just keeping everything consistent across projects often felt like a constant, frustrating battle. I wanted something more streamlined and integrated.We all know the drill: one project needs PHP 7.4, another PHP 8.2. Then there's that legacy Python 2.7 app alongside a new Python 3.10 service. Node.js versions seem to change daily. Managing databases, getting HTTPS to work locally without browser warnings, and testing email notifications without cluttering an actual inbox... it all adds up to a lot of friction.That's why I decided to build ServBay – an attempt to simplify and streamline this entire process on macOS. My goal was to create a tool that gets out of your way and lets you focus on coding.Here are some of ServBay's core features I think you might find useful:

Ask HN: How can sending emails cost Let's Encrypt five figures?https://letsencrypt.org/2025/01/22/ending-expiration-emails/Quote:> Providing expiration notifications costs Let’s Encrypt tens of thousands of dollars per year, money that we believe can be better spent on other aspects of our infrastructure.I'm trying to come up with a scenario in my head where sending, let's say, 2M emails per month at scale with an essentially fully automated service infrastructure can cost more than a grand per month. I'm failing to do so.My calc: SES pricing is around $0.1 per 1,000 emails. LE has around 550M active certificates. Let's say 5% receive an expiration notice (I never got one?), that's just over 2M emails per month on average.How can that be? Am I missing something?

Show HN: A News Service That Almost Never Emails You (By Design)Hi HN,I’ve been working on Notably News – a short-form news service that delivers micro updates by email. Instead of constant notifications or daily digests, you get just a few key updates per year on a subject, covering only the most important events.I follow a lot of different topics but don’t want to rely on social media, Google Alerts, or traditional news sites that flood me with updates, clickbait, or opinions. I just want concise, neutral updates on the most significant events.I first tried to build something similar ten years ago, leveraging my (very minimal!) academic experience in text summarization. But at the time, I couldn’t get it to work well. Now, modern LLMs make doing this feasible.HOW IT WORKS:1. Pick a public figure (or several) to follow2. We use (mostly!) Wikipedia to watch for updates, then summarize them.3. Receive short, neutral updates via email – just a couple of sentences when something big happensWHAT NEXT?Right now, I’m focusing on tracking famous people. W
