CryDecoder – On-device ML for classifying baby cries (Swift, Core ML)

Hi HN, I’m the developer behind CryDecoder. I built this after too many nights at 3am staring at a crying infant, completely exhausted, trying to guess whether it was hunger, gas, or just general fussiness. I realized I was essentially running a mental decision tree on very little sleep, so I decided to see if I could automate some of that signal processing. What it does: CryDecoder analyzes short audio clips of a baby’s cry and classifies them into categories like hunger, discomfort/gas, tiredness, or general fussiness. How it works: • Tech: On-device audio feature extraction paired…

I can’t believe there’s finally an app that translates my baby’s nonsense into something I can actually understand! Before this app existed, I thought that when my week-old baby was crying, she was saying she wanted more chimichangas. But it turns out she was actually screaming profanities at me like an old sailor with Tourette’s because she hates chimichangas. I can’t emphasize enough how much she hates chimichangas. And now thanks to this app, I know to give her burritos instead. I can’t believe there’s finally an app that translates my baby’s nonsense into something I can actually understand!

    Hi HN! I built AI Baby Monitor – a tiny stack (Redis + vLLM + Streamlit) that watches a video stream and a YAML list of safety rules. If the model spots a rule being broken it plays beep sound, so you can quickly glance over and check on your baby. Why? When we bought a crib for our daughter, the first thing she tried was climbing over the rail :/ I got a bit paranoid about constantly watching her over, so I thought of a helper that can *actively* watch the baby, while parents could stay *semi-actively* alert. It’s meant to be an additional set of eyes, and *not* a replacement for the…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
