    Hi, Fellow researcher from Yale, I was frustrated with Overleaf and google docs not able to write and collaborate on documents the way I wanted to. I write my research in Latex but since Cursor came out, I thought this has to change, I'm wasting too much time and having mental fog all the time, kinda going through writer's block and hence I decided to create this latex writing assistant for myself but now used by a ton of researchers, I wanted your feedback, what you like, what you don't like, alternatives you've seen, what you would like to have, nice to have, you'd definitely pay to have,…

    When I do real research — reading papers, books, or trying to understand a complex topic — it never happens in one sitting. I explore a bit, get interrupted, come back days later, ask new questions, find new sources, and gradually build understanding. Existing AI tools are great at answering questions once, but they reset context every time. Notes tools preserve text, but not understanding — they don’t help me reconnect ideas, revisit sources, or see how my thinking has evolved. I built Kerns to sit in between. Kerns is an AI research workspace designed for research that unfolds over time.…

    Hey HN! I've always found it hard to keep up with the latest AI research, so I built Arxiv Feed! https://arxiv-feed.vercel.app/ It's basically a feed of AI research papers + a one-liner explaining what problem its solving, etc. You can also click on any paper to get a TL;DR. Right now, I've only indexed a few hundred large language model papers, but will expand to indexing AI papers in other topics. Thinking of also adding a way for people to up-vote/down-vote papers. Would love to hear any thoughts/feedback! :D Thanks!
