I built an accountability companion that lives in your texts
Problem: You have a million things going on and stuff slips. Passport renewal, car registration, kid's doc appt, why you started going to the gym in the first place. You text yourself reminders on the go or dump it in your notes app and never look again. Solution: Faro. Text it what you need to do, and every morning it texts you the list of what's still open. Why it works: 1. It texts you every morning. Not a one-time notification, not a note you never open. Stays top of mind. 2. Done with something? Just tell it. No editing notes, no re-texting yourself a new list. 3. Zero friction. No…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Problem: You have a million things going on and stuff slips. Passport renewal, car registration, kid's doc appt, why you started going to the gym in the first place. You text yourself reminders on the go or dump it in your notes app and never look again. Solution: Faro. Text it what you need to do, and every morning it texts you the list of what's still open. Why it works: 1. It texts you every morning. Not a one-time notification, not a note you never open. Stays top of mind. 2. Done with something? Just tell it. No editing notes, no re-texting yourself a new list. 3. Zero friction. No calendar menus, no alarm settings. You remember something on the go, you text it, done. 4. Reminds with context! One user prepping a conference talk doesn't just get nagged, Faro reminds her who's in that room waiting to get value from it. Try it today (or just text it lmao, that's the whole onboarding): "hey faro" to +1 (646) 879-0459 or check out: https://www.justtextfaro.com/

Hey HN! I built justtextfaro.com, a stupidly simple and extremely proactive text message based companion to stop those small tasks from slipping through the cracks. Just text Faro and it will make sure you wont forget it. The problem: The friction. Alarms/Calendars have fussy menus and are cumbersome. You’ll write something in your notes app and never check it again. When you are done with a task you have disable all said alarms/remove calendar events/update your notes app. The solution: Faro is frictionless. 3 key features: 1. Get a text every morning of what you have in…

I might be the only SRE on Earth with his own bowling center. It's a more in-depth gig than you'd think. My family and I bought an abandoned 8-lane bowling center in the rural mid-west. In our small town there weren't many recreation options for families. You've heard of a food desert? This is an R&R desert. It had been abandoned for a good reason. The roof leaks, the electrical system was constantly surging, and my 70-year-old bowling equipment (still) doesn't work perfectly. The system that keeps your score is particularly interesting to me. It's the thing you watch during your game, but…

Over the past few months, our team has been building more and more slidedecks using web frontend technologies with coding harnesses like Claude Code, but a common complaint is to make even small edits we need to edit the code either manually or via the harness. To avoid this loop, I ended up creating Bento, a single HTML file with everything you need in a slide tool including animations and shared editing. There's no install or cloud login, everything works offline. The default deck is around 560 KB and it doesn't need to fetch anything once you got it. Open it in a browser and then you can…

A few days ago I found myself trying out GLM 5.2 and was really positively impressed. The capabilities and security I was getting from this LLM are similar to those I've gotten from models like Claude or GPT, and this really surprised me. But then I thought, "I wonder how it would work on a normal computer like mine," and above all, "I wonder if it would work without going into OOM on a computer like mine." So I started working with the help of agents to test this possibility. I started converting the model to int4, understanding MTP usage, and if possible implementing DSA for long context.…
