Hi HN! I wrote a small program to browse folders in the terminal. The main inspiration was type-ahead search in GUI file managers. There exist several programs that are similar (see the listing in the README), but none of them do it quite the way I like, and often they have a very complex UI and a ton of features. I tried to make something that is obvious how to use and gets out of your way. (I also wanted an excuse to learn Rust.) Let me know what you think!

Tera.fm▲6I got tired of doom-scrolling and skimming headlines that all blur together, so I built a small site that turns today’s tech and startup news into a calm, continuous radio-style stream. No playlists. No jumping tabs. You just press play and listen. It updates throughout the day and feels more like tuning into a station than consuming feeds. Curious if this kind of “news radio for the internet” makes sense or if it’s just me
