Show HN: I made a tool to generate photomosaics with your pictures 11 by jakemanger | 1 comments on Hacker News. Hi HN! I wanted to make some photomosaics for an anniversary gift, but I ended up building this tool and turning it into a free website that anyone can use. For those who don’t know, a photomosaic is an image made up of many smaller tile images, arranged in a way that forms a larger, recognisable picture. The best part? Everything runs directly in your browser. No files are uploaded, and there’s no sign-up required.

Show HN: Apple Health MCP Server 30 by _neil | 3 comments on Hacker News. Hey HN, This is an MCP server to chat with Apple Health data. I built it because I'm working on (yet another) personal trainer tool that keeps track of my workout goals, etc. and does scheduling for me. Part of that is weekly check-ins. I thought pairing those check-ins with sensor data could be useful, so here we are. It seems there isn't a way to automate access to Apple Health data, so this relies on an iOS app that can quickly/easily export key data to CSV. So the process at the moment is to export the data every Sunday before doing a check-in. More steps than I'd like, but in practice isn't a big lift. Under the hood this is mostly a thin wrapper around duckdb. There's a video of it in action here: https://ift.tt/VPO1Eok

Show HN: DataRamen, a Fast SQL Explorer with Automatic Joins and Data Navigation 12 by oleksandr_dem | 8 comments on Hacker News. I built DataRamen, a local-first SQL explorer that helps you get the data you need fast, without writing repetitive queries every time. You run it locally from the CLI (no cloud version yet), connect your databases, and you're ready to go. The goal is to let you explore and query data like you would in a spreadsheet: intuitive, fast, and without friction. Key features: - Automatic joins & related data navigation: Right-click any row to instantly see related records in other tables (based on foreign keys or references). - Keyboard-driven UI: Hit N to jump to a table, F to filter, and so on, it’s optimized for speed so you can go from question to insight in seconds (this point is still in progress, I find it confortable, but the goal is to make it even better). - Named tabs with saved queries: Keep multiple tabs open with different queries, useful f...

AGI Is Mathematically Impossible (3): Kolmogorov Complexity 24 by ICBTheory | 34 comments on Hacker News. Hi folks. This is the third part in an ongoing theory I’ve been developing over the last few years called the Infinite Choice Barrier (ICB). The core idea is simple: General intelligence—especially AGI—is structurally impossible under certain epistemic conditions. Not morally, not practically. Mathematically. The argument splits across three barriers: 1.Computability (Gödel, Turing, Rice): You can’t decide what your system can’t see. 2.Entropy (Shannon): Beyond a certain point, signal breaks down structurally. 3.Complexity (Kolmogorov, Chaitin): Most real-world problems are fundamentally incompressible. This paper focuses on (3): Kolmogorov Complexity. It argues that most of what humans care about is not just hard to model, but formally unmodellable—because the shortest description of a problem is the problem. In other words: you can’t generalize from what can’t be compressed. ⸻...

Show HN: Typeform was too expensive so I built my own forms 6 by preetsuthar17 | 0 comments on Hacker News. Hey HN, I'm a solopreneur and run a web design agency. I create open-source apps, but I also work as a freelancer and designer. I was accepting any new freelance project via forms on my agency website. I was using Typeform, but as time went by and more people submitted forms, it got more and more expensive. That time, I thought to use Google Form, but it was way too blocky and looked very unprofessional on my agency website. So I thought to build my own forms for my own usage, and it turns out it almost doubled form submissions and inquiry calls. I was happy, so I thought to build it for everyone and make it open-source. I added AI functionalities using Vercel AISDK. I can generate forms almost instantly using AI and also added analytics AI so that users can talk with their forms—more like talk with their analytics data. I hope this product will be as helpful to you as it ...

Show HN: Dev atrophy test – Can you still code without AI? 3 by mrborgen | 1 comments on Hacker News. Hey HN, I'm Per from Scrimba (YC S20), the code-learning platform. There's been a lot of talk lately about whether AI tools are causing skill atrophy amongst developers. We get a front-row seat to this, and we see more and more students struggle with basic concepts, and building apps on their own. This is almost always a consequence of relying too much on ChatGPT and vibe coding tools. So we built a small side project: https://devatrophy.com It's a test of your core web dev knowledge — no handholding, no back rubs, no AI autocomplete. Just you, your brain, and 10 questions. There are three levels (Noobie, Le Chad, Hardcore), and the questions cover HTML, CSS, JavaScript, databases, and Node. You’ll get a score at the end, plus a downloadable certificate for bragging rights (or public shaming). Would love for you to try it and tell us what you think. And would be curious ...

Show HN: OffChess – 100k+ Offline, Ad-Free Chess Puzzles App 37 by avadhesh18 | 9 comments on Hacker News. Hi HN! I'm the developer of rdx, a mildly popular ad-free, privacy and user friendly Reddit client. This time, I made something for a very specific use case: solving chess puzzles with no internet. Why? Well, my Wi-Fi is terrible in the bathroom—and that's where I do some of my best thinking. I tried printing out “mate in X” puzzles to solve offline, but they weren’t fun without interaction. So I built OffChess. OffChess is an iPhone/Android app that contains over 100,000 chess puzzles, fully offline and completely ad-free. You can solve puzzles by category (Mate in 1/2/3/4/5, tactics like pins/forks/skewers, or openings like Sicilian/French, etc). You gain or lose points based on how you perform, so there's a light rating system to keep things engaging. No accounts, no tracking, no monthly subscriptions, no internet required. Just pure, old-school tactical chess tr...

Show HN: I Built a Paul Graham AI Advisor for Founders and Hackers 7 by vednig | 1 comments on Hacker News. Hey, just wanted to share with you guys and app that I built and deployed in a day with Lovable. So, as a founder I always wanted to have an advisor but my budget would always be less, then on the other hand hand I had Paul's essays on Startup Advice, which I never read because I was busy building stuff. Hence, I built this product which comes into a sweet spot of both at the same time being more reasonable and capable than the alternative. ps: it's running on a reasoning model and tbh I've been able to gather pretty good insights from it. Note to PG: If you're seeing this. I'm your big fan. Thanks for doing all the stuff you do.
