What it does
I created Due or Die after struggling with apps that reward you for completing tasks on time, as that wasn't my struggle. My gap was needing a penalty for being lazy, for NOT doing my stuff on time. Plus I wanted some personality to this, do not only give penalties, but to hurl insults, add friction, generally be annoying when I'm not on top of business.

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS. Completely paywalled after you do a bunch of setup. Apparently being productive costs money. Thanks for giving Due or Die a try! There’s a 7-day free trial so you can experience the full accountability system before deciding if it’s worth it for you. We know a subscription isn’t for everyone, but for people who want their phone to actually hold them brutally accountable, that’s exactly what Due or Die is built for. If there is something you feel should be included without subscribing, or something about the paywall that didn’t feel right, I’d genuinely love to hear what it was so I can make improvements to the app.…from apps.apple.com

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

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…
