What it does

Hi everyone! I built this AI app to improve safety for visually impaired people. It scans the environment in real-time, working perfectly in bright and dark conditions (automatically triggers the flashlight) and guides the user with voice alerts. Since the app is currently in private demo, please watch the video below to see it in action! My Instagram is @jorgewillop linked if you want to chat or collaborate.

  • Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

  • Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
