Wasn't that excited since Caesar III.

What did you do, OP? I have a side project to launch, ain't nobody no time for that! :D

I was hypnotized for 10 minutes. This is amazing. The .technology tld is hilarious. Reminds me of technologia memes

Congrats on the launch, that looks really cool!

I had an idea to build a restricted zones for a phone. For example, I can't take my phone to bed, so I wanted to create a esp32 based project that beeps when the phone is too close to some areas. I made it based on BLE, but iphone masks MAC addresses, so it was impossible to track particular devices. No I realize, I could actually do it with WIFI signal straight. How I didn't think about it. Will try again today :D

And it's a first time Bill Gates had a thought that he would better be dead by now.

Not gonna lie, the pricing is super attractive! :) I'd love to see an API, so I can also run automations using this tool on my mac.

Sorry for the dumb question, but is it safe? does it exposes ports on demand or just all of them at once?

I wish Claude would just build a lovable-like experience into their desktop app so the codebase will sit on your local computer with easy transition to cloud code.

My main blocker with self hosting always been the security aspect. I never know if I'm doing enough to make sure nobody access my secrets and db, having that course/checklist would be great!

Show HN: I've built a prototype for a physical e-ink todo list with voice input

cassettelabs — Tue, 14 Oct 2025 19:22:28 +0000

It's just a concept, but i'm sure it's possible to build something like that with esp32 and eink display. It uses fully local speech to text, for real device i'd use a server based transcription.

it works only on desktop, unfortunately didn't have much patience to make it responsive on mobile

cassettelabs — Tue, 14 Oct 2025 14:28:44 +0000

Maybe it's a new name of the game now, creating new frameworks that are more optimized for agents to use rather then humans. Tailwind for example - definitely a goto tool for all vibe coding tools.

Being able to branch from my db and merge after testing was a killer feature for me in PlanetScale. Great to see this functionality as an open source project.
