- BABizcardz.ai – Custom metal business cards2025 · github.com · ▲26
Bizcardz.ai is a website where you design business cards which are converted to KiCad PCB schematics which can be manufactured (using metals) by companies such as Elecrow and PCBWay The site is free. Elecrow charges about $1 per pcb in quantities of 50 and $0.80 in quantities of 100. I have hacked away at this on and off for about two years so just happy to get it published

I built Duebase AI to solve a problem I kept running into in fintech - analyzing UK company financial health takes forever. The process usually goes: download PDFs from Companies House → manually extract data to spreadsheets → calculate ratios → interpret trends. Takes 3-4 hours per company and requires serious financial expertise. The technical challenge: Companies House filings are messy. Inconsistent formats, complex accounting structures, missing data, and you need to understand UK accounting standards to make sense of it all. My approach: Parse 15M+ UK company records from Companies…

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.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…

Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
