Hot Hand Basketball

Shot tracker & form analyzer for Apple Watch

What it does

Most basketball apps require manual input or extra hardware. Hot Hand Basketball uses Apple Watch's motion sensors to track your shots automatically — no extra gear needed. Eyes-Free Mode lets you log makes and misses with a wrist swipe, staying focused on the game. After each session, review shooting % by shot type (free throws, 3-pointers, layups) and track progress toward your goals. Built by a solo indie developer for players who want distraction-free shot tracking.

    Hooper – AI-driven stats and highlights for basketball play2024 · hooper.gg · ▲124

    Hey everyone, OP here. Wanted to share a bit more about Hooper — I started building it with a good friend of mine six months ago. We play a lot of pickup together and were arguing about who has a better jump shot and ended up hacking together an app to settle it The way Hooper works is you can record yourself using the app and ideally a tripod (optional). The app will track everyone, whether its a solo practice, a 3v3, or a 5v5. We think there’s a lot of stuff out there for basketball drills but what we really wanted Hooper to be for is actual game play. That means, it can do things like…

    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…
