Show HN: My local climbing gym from photogrammetryhttps://kmcheung12.github.io/climb-preview/tour/ae43c6e5Commented on yesterday's Ask HN: What are you working on? (August 2026), thought I might as well submit a Show HN.If you see climbing world cup/championship, there is this 3D modelling thing [1]. I want that for my weekly bouldering.I scanned my local climbing gym into 3D mesh using iphone. Built a simple editor to trim, merge, move/rotate meshes. You can interact with the mesh, view routes, view climb, etc. So this is unlike many gaussian splatting projects where the main use is for viewing. I built a pipeline in updating climbing walls. Climbing routes are manually annotated. Climbing videos are registered against the 3D mesh. Based on one input video, body positions resolved into 3D/4D space. you can view the body landmarks from different angle.COLMAP, OpenMVS, fastapi, svelte, database is just local json files. A read only build is exported so I can host on github pageIf you climb, or know someone who climbs, would love to hear your feedback. Do you usually record your climbs? If IAug 10, 2026 9:39 PM

Show HN: Fun Web page 3D visualization of laundry room statushttps://www.aisloperator.com/brickoven-estates-laundry-room/By default, this shows simulated data. It can show real data, but we don't want to hug-of-death the laundry company IoT.Click on a machine, to see how the apartment building attendant responds to people leaving their laundry for hours in high-contention machines.This was a collaboration with Claude Code. Sometimes Claude wasted time frustratingly, sometimes Claude saved lots of time. The end product is good enough, the Easter eggs were fun, and it was completed in less time than I could've done it myself.Aug 10, 2026 9:07 PM

Ask HN: Why are websites and apps still running legacy code?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49248463Now that apps can easily be re-implemented with AI, what is keeping businesses from rebuilding them ? I tried buying tickets with Fandango, and their site is 15+ years old. The ticketing and checkout experience is buggy & leaking tons of money .I understand Fandango the businesses has many software dependencies & surfaces: web app, mobile, some data feeds, APIs -- lots of custom spaghetti code. I'm not trivializing their business.Still, the cost to rebuild and deploy is much lower than what they are losing. The rebuild cost would recoup in a couple months.What's keeping businesses from rebuilding & fixing their apps?Aug 10, 2026 7:24 PM

Show HN: Django-Style Queries for SQLAlchemyhttps://github.com/ViAchKoN/sqlalchemy-query-managerHey!Wanted to share the project I've worked on for more than a year. The core was done last summer but since then I couldn't find time to implement all the functionality I had in mind. But a few months ago, I made myself sit down and plan the introduction of the remaining things.And with the release of 0.7.0 I can say that 85 percent is done and I'm ready to share it.I wrote a Python package which serves as a layer on top of SQLAlchemy and allows you to write Django-style queries. The idea came from work where we had an additional helper file which had methods for select, filters and other simple queries. When we didn't use those helper methods we wrote queries using the SQLAlchemy syntax which took a lot of time and code space. Especially the fact that you need to specify a model in filtering.In the end I decided to move all those helper methods to a package thereby we can just import them from one place. Django style format was selected because, personally, I found it easy to read anAug 10, 2026 6:03 PM

Launch HN: Stoa Markets (YC S26) – A Marketplace for GPUs and AI Servershttps://www.stoaexchange.comHi HN, we’re Eren, Berat and Kaan. We’re building Stoa (https://www.stoaexchange.com), a marketplace for new and used GPUs and AI servers.GPUs are the collateral in the data center buildout. Today, financing terms mostly depend on the offtaker, meaning the company that has committed to use the compute.If that company is a hyperscaler, the financing can look investment grade. If it’s a smaller cloud or startup, terms get expensive fast, even with the same hardware as collateral.The lender’s problem is pretty reasonable. If the borrower defaults and we need to sell these servers, what can we actually get for them? There isn’t a good answer today.We started brokering GPU deals to understand why. It was much more manual than we expected. The hardware is still traded through phone calls, forwarded spreadsheets and long email threads.One week, a seller quoted us $200k for a server node and another quoted $240k for what looked like the same thing. Neither was necessarily wrong. They had diffeAug 10, 2026 4:35 PM

Show HN: Bio Tools – install drug design tools easilyhttps://github.com/David-OConnor/bio_toolsI made a CLI program, Rust and Python lib that makes it easy to install and run bio / drug design tools. (structure prediction, sequence prediction, property prediction etc).You install it with `pip install bio_tools_app`, then run commands like `bio_tools install alphafold3` or `bio_tools run proteinmpnn --version` etc.This smooths over the complexities of installing these tools, which often depend on [mutually exclusive] python environments in a mix of PyPi-capable and Conda. I use it as a shared library between a python web app and a rust standalone GUI program. (Molchanica)Aug 10, 2026 3:55 PM
