CaratShares
Own and trade fractions of vaulted, certified gemstones
What it does
Coloured gemstones are a $50B asset class with no public market — no continuous price, no fractional access. CaratShares fixes that: vaulted, lab-certified stones (GIA, SSEF, Gübelin, AGL) are tokenised into carat-level facets and traded 24/7 on an on-chain order book settled on Base. Sworn appraisers record NAV on-chain, holders govern custody and sales, and the physical stone is ultimately redeemable. Live demo — every mechanism working end to end.

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.
