Fleek – Own Your $Home
Fleek is an all-in-one management system for everything you need to be productive on your computer. Functionally, Fleek is a user-friendly wrapper around Nix and Nix Home Manager. It aims to provide users with a simple way to add packages, add shell aliases, and manage the shell's PATH. It was born from the question "What if we had the power of Nix and the simplicity of HomeBrew?" We built Fleek because we love Nix and Home Manager, but wanted an easier way to get started. Fleek intentionally hides the complexity of Nix, offering commands like "fleek add neovim" to add a package to your…
In plain words
Fleek is a management system that simplifies computer setup and configuration by wrapping Nix and Home Manager with an easy-to-use interface. It lets users add packages, create shell aliases, and manage system paths through simple commands like "fleek add neovim" instead of dealing with Nix's complexity directly. Designed for developers and power users who want Nix's power without the steep learning curve, Fleek makes it straightforward to configure a computer, apply changes iteratively, and share configurations across multiple machines.

Fleek intentionally hides the complexity of Nix, offering commands like "fleek add neovim" to add a package to your system. You can use Fleek iteratively to make changes to your $HOME config and apply them. You can also use Fleek as a one-off generator to create a lightly-opinionated Home Manager flake that you can modify as you like. Fleek is easy to share between computers, giving you an uncomplicated way to get the exact same configuration on Linux, Mac & WSL.

Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…

Hi HN, Today we’re launching GPT-4 answers on Phind.com, a developer-focused search engine that uses generative AI to browse the web and answer technical questions, complete with code examples and detailed explanations. Unlike vanilla GPT-4, Phind feeds in relevant websites and technical documentation, reducing the model’s hallucination and keeping it up-to-date. To use it, simply enable the “Expert” toggle before doing a search. GPT-4 is making a night-and-day difference in terms of answer quality. For a question like “How can I RLHF a LLaMa model”, Phind in Expert mode delivers a…
