Dbg – One CLI debugger for every language (AI-agent ready)
AI agents are great at writing code but blind at runtime. They guess, print, and waste tokens. I built dbg to give them a real debugger experience. Since it is backend based with the few I implemented (still at basic level) it can support 15+ languages with one simple CLI (still some work needed but it is functional as it is): LLDB, Delve, PDB, JDB, node inspect, rdbg, phpdbg, GHCi, etc. Profilers too (perf, pprof, cProfile, Valgrind…) I also added GPU profiling via `gdbg` (CUDA, PyTorch, Triton kernels). It auto-dispatches and shares the same unified interface. (Planning to bring those…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
AI agents are great at writing code but blind at runtime. They guess, print, and waste tokens. I built dbg to give them a real debugger experience. Since it is backend based with the few I implemented (still at basic level) it can support 15+ languages with one simple CLI (still some work needed but it is functional as it is): LLDB, Delve, PDB, JDB, node inspect, rdbg, phpdbg, GHCi, etc. Profilers too (perf, pprof, cProfile, Valgrind…) I also added GPU profiling via `gdbg` (CUDA, PyTorch, Triton kernels). It auto-dispatches and shares the same unified interface. (Planning to bring those advanced concepts back to the main dbg). Works with Claude & Codex (probably works on others but didn't try them) Quick start: ``` curl -sSf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/redknightlois/dbg/main/ins... | sh dbg --init claude (for claude) ``` Then just say: “use dbg to debug the crash in src/foo.rs” Docs: https://redknightlois.github.io/dbg/ GitHub (MIT Licensed): https://github.com/redknightlois/dbg Would love feedback from anyone building agents. What languages or features are you missing most? Ping me at @federicolois on X or open issues.

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…

Built a ~9M param LLM from scratch to understand how they actually work. Vanilla transformer, 60K synthetic conversations, ~130 lines of PyTorch. Trains in 5 min on a free Colab T4. The fish thinks the meaning of life is food. Fork it and swap the personality for your own character.

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
