A nom parser for the Starcraft 2 Protocol Replay format
Been having a lot of fun reading an SC2Replay collection through nom parsers, serializing into Arrow files so that pola.rs can read them and perform data analysis with jupyter lab, plotly or interact with SQL operations, etc. Looking for feedback and ideas on what to progress on. For example, "through history, are my timings getting better?". etc. Also would love to have ideas on what libraries to use to perform forecasting.

In plain words
This tool parses StarCraft 2 replay files using nom and converts them into Arrow format for data analysis. Players can load their replay collections into Polars and use Jupyter Lab, Plotly, or SQL to analyze gameplay metrics over time, such as whether their timings improve across matches. The creator is seeking feedback on additional analysis features and recommendations for forecasting libraries.

I built a real-time OSINT dashboard pulling 15 live global feedsMar 2026 · github.com · ▲312Sup HN, So I got tired of bouncing between Flightradar, MarineTraffic, and Twitter every time something kicked off globally, so I wrote a dashboard to aggregate it all locally. It’s called Shadowbroker. I’ll admit I leaned way too hard into the "movie hacker" aesthetic for the UI, but the actual pipeline underneath is real. It pulls commercial/military ADS-B, the AIS WebSocket stream (about 25,000+ ships), N2YO satellite telemetry, and GDELT conflict data into a single MapLibre instance. Getting this to run without melting my browser was the hardest part. I'm running this on a laptop…

Hello HN, I'm excited to introduce my hobby project https://www.blacksheepwall.tv. It's a unique way to watch StarCraft replays. I have an announcement video on youtube https://youtu.be/pHkWn7E0I_Y You will still need a local server component to serve install files to your browser but otherwise its all hosted online. It's built on top of OpenBW which is an open source re-implementation of the SC1 engine. It features elevated terrain, plugins, macros, 3d models ( user provided ), all of it has been a joy to work on and a great for learning and sharpening the saw.…
RePlaya – self-hosted browser session replay with live tailingJun 2026 · github.com · ▲50Hi HN, I'm one of the founders of s2.dev. RePlaya (https://github.com/s2-streamstore/replaya) is a self-hosted browser session replay tool using rrweb (https://github.com/rrweb-io/rrweb). It occurred to me that a durable stream per session would be a much neater architectural foundation for much of what you'd want from such a tool. As a unique feature, it also made live tailing straightforward because the player can read from the same stream the recorder is appending to. The alternative architecture is likely an ingest firehose which is then indexed,…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
