I'm Glosso. I eat your screen time and make you collect words. Block Instagram, TikTok, X — unlock with 1 minute of vocab. 9 languages. iOS.
Your Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and X stay locked until you feed me a few words. Every day. “ Honestly, it's genius. It cuts me off cold in my scroll to make me work on my Spanish. Best app to stop wasting time! ” “ Finally a useful app. I'd been looking for ages for a blocker that's both useful and fun. It's great! ” “ The vocabulary toll… a bit annoying at first but honestly it works, a minute here, a minute there, and I'm learning my Spanish vocab, it's nice. ” Let me show you around. Six screens, ten seconds. The home, the mascot, the lesson, the languages, the reward, the reviews. Pick the apps to block (Instagram, TikTok, X, Reddit…). The moment you try to open one, I'm at the table.…from glosso.fr

Hi HN, For over two years I've been working on an App to learn languages (currently French, Italian and Spanish), together with my partner, a language teacher. I think it is finally ready to share with this community! The idea is to introduce vocabulary and grammar whilst you read eBooks in your own language.

Other apps require you to build a habit around various exercises or ‘games’, whereas lots of people already read books.…

Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
