Show HN: World Time TUI

realaleris149 — Sat, 21 Mar 2026 10:17:09 +0000

I work with people from multiple time zones and is hard to tell immediately what hour will be appropriate for a meeting or an online chat sync. I was using some web apps but lately they are full of ads.

I thought a quick to use terminal app would help so I've built this. Maybe it can help others too.

I've tinkered a bit with the colors, still not entirely happy with the readability. I am struggling with what seem to be conflicting goals: distinctive non-working hours, better contrast and very compact.

From an agent perspective is very well documented but from a human perspective is not very clear - how you would use it?

I think this is also a kind of tagging.

I always had problems understanding algorithms from such descriptions. Even from pseudocode I find it difficult to understand. What I usually do is search for an implementation, even in a language I am not familiar with is still better. When you have code you can run it, test it, debug it - not so much with descriptions and pseudocode.

Not op, but I think "doesn't play nicely" means does not work so you have to do it in other ways. This has been my experience as well, albeit it was couple of years ago.

As LLM benchmarks go, this is not a bad take at all. One interesting point about this approach is that is self balancing, so when more powerful models come up, there is no need to change it.

Still can't get past "Gleam doesn't have loops". I did try to stick with it as the doc suggests, but I guess is a steep transition for me. I like everything else about the language.

The number of people is irrelevant. What is relevant is what each one did. If they did something illegal that is punished with prison time, they go to prison.

I used https://github.com/jetify-com/typeid for generating api keys for a project. They are nice because you can use prefixes for different type of keys and know immediately what they represent. No dashes also makes them easier to copy paste.

New comment by realaleris149 in "A web app to read Latin texts with inline translations"

realaleris149 — Sun, 29 Dec 2024 15:12:20 +0000

After finishing DuoLingo’s Latin course, I wanted to read some Latin texts, but I didn't find easy enough texts and going back and forth to a dictionary was cumbersome.

So I created this app for reading basic Latin texts. The idea of the app is to have a Latin text with translation of each word under the paragraph line, which makes it easy to grasp the meaning but also focuses on reading the original Latin text.

It only has one book, if I finish it I might add others.

I used OpenAI to do the translation which looks pretty good for me, with the caveat that... well... I do not know Latin. This approach will not probably work for more complex texts.

This mode of reading works for me, not sure if is of interest to anyone else.

The app source is on GitHub if you are interested:
