ElixirFeed
Hi HN, I’m building ElixirFeed, a small web app that helps people follow health and longevity research without having to read full scientific papers. The app: - pulls in new articles from PubMed - filters for topics like longevity, lifestyle, diet, exercise, and metabolic health - uses an LLM to generate short, plain-language summaries, actionable takeaways, translations - labels study types (RCT, review, preclinical) - adds simple, editorial-style visual explanations - lets users vote and discuss papers The goal is not to give medical advice, but to make it easier to understand what the…
ElixirFeed launched on January 8, 2026 with 7 votes, #1,609 of 14,584 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches. The site was not reachable when checked in September 2026.
What it does
ElixirFeed turns complex health and longevity research into clear, readable summaries. It scans new PubMed studies, uses AI to explain them in plain language, adds visual context, labels evidence strength, supports translations, and sends a weekly digest. No hype or medical advice — just help understanding what the science says.

I mapped 8.5M research papers into an interactive atlasJul 2026 · tomesphere.com · ▲85When I read papers, I have to jump between multiple tabs to find the dataset, code, videos, peer reviews, and so on. I tried to fix this with this project. It started as a project just for papers on arXiv, but after its initial success on Twitter (got like 1.9k views: the most I have gotten for a post), I have now expanded it to include other openly available papers from PubMed Central, bioRxiv, medRxiv, and eLife. These papers have been linked with their genes, proteins, diseases, drugs, clinical trials, 3D protein structures, code, and cited and similar papers. This project now has four…

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
