  • Calculating prices in work hours, not dollars2025 · timeforprice.com · ▲9

    Ever looked at a price tag and thought, How many hours do I need to work for this? Instead of just seeing numbers, what if you could instantly see the cost in terms of your time? That’s why I built Time for Price — a simple browser extension that converts prices into work hours based on your income. Whether you're shopping online or budgeting, it helps you make decisions with time in mind, not just money.

    Hi HN, I built AffordWhere to answer a question I kept running into: “If I earn X, where can I actually afford to live comfortably?” The site lets you compare cities based on income, rent, taxes, and day-to-day costs, and see how far a salary realistically goes in each place. It’s intentionally simple: Focused on affordability rather than averages Designed for relocation and remote-work decisions No account required I’d appreciate feedback on: Whether the affordability framing is useful Missing cost factors you’d expect Data accuracy or methodology concerns Link:…

  • Needle: We Distilled Gemini Tool Calling into a 26M Model▲776

    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…
