Show HN: A botless meeting recorder and summarizer that runs in the browser
I built a browser app for recording calls and turning them into transcripts/summaries without inviting a meeting bot.The current version is BYOK: you provide an OpenAI API key, stored locally in your browser. Recordings/projects stay in browser storage; selected audio/transcript text is sent to OpenAI only when you run transcription/summary.I am testing whether the wedge is real: no bot in the meeting, no SaaS workspace for recordings, summaries/exports afterward.I would
Show HN: Interactive first-principles climate physics simulation with explainer
A 3D visualizer of earth's climate in the browser. Introduces physics step by step so you can watch each process unfold as a piece of the overall climate. I built this over 6 months, almost entirely with AI, mostly Opus 4.6 in Claude Code. SF weather made no sense to me (Barely any seasons? September is the warmest month?) and I wanted to understand it better myself. This is a polished version of the app I'd want for myself, adding physics layer by layer to isolate the impact of each p
Show HN: AI-Mirror - Analytics engine for modern web applications.
I built AIMirror because I got tired of analytics tools showing me what users did, but never why they struggled.AIMirror is a lightweight UI/UX analysis toolkit for web apps that detects frustration, hesitation, dead clicks, rage clicks, and confusing user flows in real time — then explains what’s likely going wrong so you can actually fix the experience for the users instead of guessing.I am a creative technologist with a design degree majoring in digital design, with a heavy programming b
Show HN: Generate free golf yardage books from OpenStreetMap data
Hey HN, I'm sharing a tool I made to create yardage books for golf courses.I'd originally written a Python tool a few years ago that pulled data from OpenStreetMap, auto-calculated relevant distances, and then created imagery for a yardage book. If you want to see the original, it's here: https://github.com/npilk/hacker-yardageBut Python was a pretty big technical barrier for most casual golfers. Then recently I realized most of the same functionality could be
Tell HN: The Threat to US Citizen's ID / Voting Is Private Services
THE REAL RISK AROUND VOTER ID NOW COMES FROM PRIVATE ENTERPRISEThis post has been condensed due to character limitations on HN posts.[...]What's happening is that private entities are curating the databases and operating automated adjudication services which the government contracts to utilize. "But it's little things, administrative things." Yeah maybe, but look where they are in the kill chain. During approximately the week surrounding 15-May-2026 I was denied the "pri
Show HN: A timeline of recent open source CVE intensity and volume
I was curious what it would look like if I plotted the intensity and volume of software supply chain CVEs over time, given what seemed like a flood of compromises lately.It looked exactly as I expected, and I expect it to get worse before it gets better.Yes, an LLM was used but because I wanted the simplest possible architecture, I steered away from using any back end at all. Instead it's just GitHub pages with a static json document as the source of data, updated daily by a GitHub action w
