What it does

CarChat is a live dealership inventory marketplace at carchat.io. Shoppers and AI assistants search cars that are actually on a lot right now, then contact the selling dealer. Listings come from each dealership's own website and refresh daily. Free for buyers.

Search live dealership inventory in plain English. Real cars, live prices, and a dealer who gets back to you in minutes. Free for buyers, no account needed.

Where should we look? We'll only show cars from dealerships near you. CarChat searches live lots near you the way you would ask a friend. Real cars, live prices, and a dealer who gets back to you in minutes. Live inventory from trusted dealerships, refreshed daily. Free for buyers, no account needed. Type it like you would say it: "reliable SUV under $25k" or "2022 Audi with low miles". We turn it into a real search and show you how we understood it. Every listing is live inventory from the dealership's own lot, with the dealer's advertised price. No bait listings, no lead-selling middlemen. Ask about a car and your question goes straight to the selling dealership. Most respond within…from carchat.io

  • 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…

  • I made OwnTime to balance between competing priorities in my life. The idea is based on two main influences: the concept of "roles" from "The 5 Choices" (2015), and my repeated failure to effectively implement time blocking due to the necessary flexibility in my role. The app allows you to define time budgets, which are not much more than a few mutually exclusive countdown timers. The UX is essentially that of a chess clock for an arbitrary number of players with configurable time. The whole point of the app is to kick you out of the running role/priority when its time is up.
