Focus Flow, Brain Dump & Task Simplifier

What it does

Focus Flow is a single-file task tool built around a simple idea: overwhelm usually comes from trying to hold everything in your head at once, not from having too much to do. Quick-capture anything into a brain dump, then deliberately pull just a few things into "Today's Focus" — not a long list. Break big tasks into smaller steps, and use the built-in focus timer for short, contained work sessions. No account, no app, no subscription.

Most to-do lists make overwhelm worse, not better — a long, undifferentiated list of everything you should be doing, with no sense of what actually matters right now. Focus Flow works differently: get everything out of your head into a quick brain dump, then pull just a few things into "Today's Focus" — deliberately not a long list, just the handful of things you're actually going to work on.Break

  Clipto MCP▲655

  Hey 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…

  Simple algorithm and color space to generate diverse skin tones▲627

  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…
