Away
Put your phone down. Recover your time
What it does
I built Away: Focus Timer because I realized I was picking up my phone dozens of times a day without any reason. Instead of blocking apps or forcing productivity, Away simply replaces that moment with a quiet timer. Every time you reach for your phone, you pause and ask yourself: “Do I really need this right now?” It’s a small psychological shift that helped me use my phone less - and I hope it helps others too.

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.
