I built a dream interpreter in JavaScript, no AI, no server, just logic
I built a browser-only dream interpreter that maps symbols to meaning using a custom keyword engine. No AI, no tracking, no backend it’s all deterministic logic, built with vanilla JavaScript. The idea was to see if emotional and symbolic interpretations could still feel personal without using machine learning. Dreams are parsed against a map of 300+ symbolic meanings. Everything runs locally in your browser and saves via localStorage. You can revisit old dreams, reflect on interpretations, or just explore what the system sees in your subconscious. Happy to answer questions, would love…
In plain words
This browser-based dream interpreter uses rule-based logic to analyze dream descriptions against a database of over 300 symbolic meanings. Built with vanilla JavaScript, it runs entirely offline without AI, servers, or tracking, storing interpretations locally in your browser. Users can enter dreams and receive symbolic interpretations based on keyword matching, then revisit and reflect on past entries. The tool is designed for anyone interested in exploring dream symbolism through deterministic logic rather than machine learning.

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…

Today marks ten years, 3653 consecutive days, of running at least one mile every day under the USRSA rules [1]. To celebrate, I built an interactive dashboard that turns a decade of GPX files into charts you can explore. Running has truly changed my life: I've made lifelong friends, explored beautiful places, and more importantly invested into my own health and fitness, which I'm starting to see the positive benefits as I get older. The stack is pretty simple: a NextJS app, with a Postgres database to keep all my running data, and all the stats are pre-computed and cached in Redis, so I…

Made this website as an exercise in vibe-coding and GCP. It was posted about a few times around the internet, on sites like Morning Brew (https://www.morningbrew.com/issues/business-buzzkill), MetaFilter (https://www.metafilter.com/209703/Draw-A-Fish), boingboing.net, etc. I think it's cute! I built a basic CNN trained against penises and swastikas, and then anything that doesn't hit the 63% confidence score gets sent to a mod queue, a vibe-coded fish-tinder…
