AstroGrid

What it does

AstroGrid turns your browser into a spaceship. Fly from Earth's surface to the edge of the observable universe, all in real 3D. • 119K real stars (HYG catalog) with accurate B-V colors • NASA JPL orbital mechanics for the Solar System, in real time • 14K deep-sky objects, black holes with gravitational lensing, pulsars, supernovae, and gravitational-wave events • Runs entirely client-side. No install, no signup. Built for the curious students, educators, and space nerds.

  Eigendrum - Draw any shape and hear what it sounds like as a drum▲243

  Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…

  I built a tiny LLM to demystify how language models work▲915

  Built a ~9M param LLM from scratch to understand how they actually work. Vanilla transformer, 60K synthetic conversations, ~130 lines of PyTorch. Trains in 5 min on a free Colab T4. The fish thinks the meaning of life is food. Fork it and swap the personality for your own character.

  I built a frontpage for personal blogs▲783

  With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https:&#x2F;&#x2F;text.blogosphere.app&#x2F; Non-minimal: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blogosphere.app&#x2F; If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
