Is this AWS RI/SP simulation engine interesting / valuable?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49374412TLDR; This AWS RI/SP tool we built might have unique features that are important especially for companies running large, high-variability workloads with high coverage targets. We want feedback on how true that is and whether we should open this up to others, possibly even for free or as OSS.Setup: We're a small cloud cost consultancy, but not a tools vendor. We do build a lot of internal tooling for our own use. We serve companies spending 7- to 9-figures (USD) annually.One of the internal tools we built over the past several years is a simulation engine for RIs/SPs that can do a number of things, some of which we believe might be one-of-a-kind in the space today and could be valuable to others.1.) Visualize the entire commitment savings/discount curve for any commitment type (any RI, any SP, of any flavor), showing the exact savings achieved and the marginal discount rate at every level of commitment. This unlocks what we feel is the best purchasing strategy: "buy SP dollars or RI uni

Show HN: I trained a 125M model to autocomplete piano on-devicehttps://simedw.com/2026/08/20/midi-autocomplete/I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15).The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device.The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

Show HN: Mail client optimized for self-hosted email across multiple domainshttps://mainly.crnst8.com/As someone with a clean IP range and ADHD, I manage my inbox by splitting across a variety of accounts for a variety of domains. I’ve never really found a client that scratches all my itches, so I spent some time making one and it’s now become my daily driver.It’s optimised to be visually simple and highly configurable for things like colour, folders/subfolders, sorting and tweaking the search query function to better match what you search for often. There’s also some little nice-to-haves like a purpose-built PWA, bulk domain onboarding, MCP and dark mode.It’s fully self-hostable, open source and free of any AI bloat/VC fodder. Not trying to sell anything but rather make something un-shitified and simple to use, would love some feedback if you’ve given it a try! :~)

Show HN: Lutefish Stream (Play Music over Internet)https://lutefish.com/Hey all, Disclaimer: I work on embedded software for Lutefish.tldr: If you have good internet and you live within 500 miles of somebody (and ISPs are feeling benevolent that day) you can play music together over the internet (for real tho).I know you've probably seen "make music over the internet but for real this time" presented from a handful of places over the years. We designed a PCB from scratch to tightly couple the audio and networking layers as close as we possibly could, and we are able to get latency numbers as low as 28ms using custom protocol (which allows for seemingly real-time performance with bandmates over the internet).Before you ask, no, it is not an audio interface also (we're working on it). Think of it more like, "point-to-point sound cards with a lot of control over your mix".Don't really know how to do self promotion, but we have devices for sale for $250 usually (rando $200 flash sales sometimes) and there's a $10 / month subscription (2 months free w/ purchase

2026-27 Premier League Bold Predictionshttps://sports.yahoo.com/articles/2026-27-premier-league-bold-003254891.htmlThe BOLD PREDICTIONS post is one of my favorite posts of the year. It’s so freeing to unleash the inner lovechild of Gary Neville and Stephen A. Smith to go absolutely nuts with the most out-of-pocket predictions. Okay, so maybe not that crazy.

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
