Agora MMXXV
True Social Media
What it does
Agora MMXXV is a social media alternative. Designed for long form posting it lacks likes, following, post metrics, biased feeds, and all other performative attributes that prevent true creativity and expanding your world view. Modern day social media is no longer about sharing what you want to share. You share what others want to read. Agora ensures your posts are read without competing with others for space and has constraints designed to prevent endless shallow comments.

While I do find LLMs useful for some tasks, I have been concerned about how centralized the web will be in a world after this hype cycle. Google learned that the best way to print money is to be the one place that everyone goes to before they go somewhere else on the web. Now these companies want to ingest everything on the web so people don't have to leave their sites; being the few points where all content goes to and comes from (this makes for a terrible spider web). Web development has become more accessible and easier for everyone, but it feels like the number of sites people are going…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.
