In the maker’s words, at launch
Hi, my name is Nikita Sobolev, I am a CPython core dev, Django Software Foundation member, and maintainer of countless Python / Django opensource tools. Now I am happy to present to you my new project. Docs: https://django-modern-rest.rtfd.io/ Code: https://github.com/wemake-services/django-modern-rest/ Features: - No AI slop, but built for the LLM era. - Blazingly fast. - Supports Django >= 4.2 - Supports `pydantic2`, `msgspec`, `attrs`, `dataclasses`, `TypedDict` as model schemas, but not bound to any of these libraries. - Supports async Django without any `sync_to_async` calls inside, tested to work with free-threading builds. - Fully typed and checked with `mypy`, `pyright`, and `pyrefly` in strict modes. - Supports content negotiation, has default implementations for `json`, `msgpack`, SSE, Json Lines, and more. - Strict schema validation of both requests and responses, including errors. - Supports OpenAPI 3.1 / 3.2 semantic schema generation out of the box. - Supports all your existing `django` primitives and packages, no custom runtimes. - Great testing tools with `schemathesis`, `polyfactory`, `tracecov`, bundled `pytest` plugin, and default Django's testing primitives. - 100% test coverage with 2000+ of carefully designed unit, integration, and property-based tests. - High security standards. - Built by the community for the community, not a single-person project. - Great docs.

Wagtail is a new, open-source Django CMS focused on flexibility and user experience. It was originally built for the Royal College of Art, but now we're able to share it with everyone. See https://github.com/torchbox/wagtail and http://wagtail.io (marketing site) and http://www.rca.ac.uk/ (first big site built on Wagtail) We're really proud of the user interface, and we hope that Wagtail will make it easy for Django developers to build beautiful, modern sites. Feedback very welcome! Tom Dyson, Technical Director at Torchbox (Wagtail developers)
- WOwe open sourced our startup's help desk as django-knowledge.2012 · ▲26
We had a lot of reasons we wanted to build our own help desk, the least of which (and easiest to mention) is that a three seat license to the top tier desk systems are well over $100/mo. Plus they were slowing us down quite a bit. Right now its only dependency is Django, it supports email alert for updates, has bundled style, a permission like public/private/internal status, optional anonymous questions/responses, categories, searching, and a few more I've missed. What I'd like to do is: extend tests, class based views, parse incoming emails as questions & response (this is important 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.

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.
