I made a personal news agent that follows anything you care about
Hi HN! I just launched A01 on the App Store! A01 is a personal news agent that follows exactly what you tell it to, without the algorithmic noise. I built it because I often had to jump between different sites and platforms to stay updated. When topics get really niche, there’s no single platform to rely on, and I’d often get distracted by unrelated content along the way. How A01 works: - Ingests 2,000+ RSS feeds hourly (The Verge, NYT, Nature, IEEE, arXiv, etc.) - Creates embeddings using Voyage - Vector search matches your custom prompts against new content every hour - Delivers only what…

A012025 · a01ai.com · ▲545Hey everyone, I feel like a lot of us have gotten used to social media as our main way to stay informed. It’s where we get our news, trends, opinions, and everything. But honestly, my attention has been wrecked by it. TikTok, X, Instagram... I go in to check one thing and suddenly I’ve lost 90 minutes. So I started wondering what if we could actually control what we see? Like, fully. What if we could own our feed instead of letting the algorithm choose what we scroll through? To play with that idea, I built a small demo app. You just type in what you want to follow, like “recent crypto big…

A01 is a news reader where you define your own algorithm in plain English. For example, you can prompt it with: • "I want to follow recent AI startups and their first funding rounds.” • "I want updates on regulation changes and enforcement actions around stablecoins.” Every few hours, the backend fetches new articles, embeds them, and scores each one against your prompt. Only the most relevant pieces show up. No engagement metrics, trending bait, or “you might also like” filler. I built this because I every time I opened up Twitter or LinkedIn to stay informed on something, but always ended…
I built a tech news aggregator that works the way my brain does2025 · deadstack.net · ▲188An honest to god, non-algorithmic reverse chrono list of tech news that passes my signal-to-noise tests, updated hourly. A lightweight a page design as I've been able to keep; simple, clean, fast. No commercial features or aspirations - this is a passion project, something I've been fooling around with on and off for decades. There's a "Top" view too with an LLM edited front page & summary, and categorized views for a large number of topics - see the Directory. A few more buried features to explore, but the fundamental use case is pop in, scan, exit - fast and concise. Your feedback would be…
One Minute NewsFeb 2026 · oneminutenews.org · ▲171This is a minimalist news digest site that helps readers understand the biggest news happening around the world in one minute. We work on this as a side project. So why are we doing this? Welp, I myself am a clickbait hater. Sometimes I click into a news story on Facebook just to find out the content is nothing as the title suggests. Born from pure hatred, we have created One Minute News to make sure every headline literally says what the content is about. This helps readers save tons of time filtering out unimportant news just by scanning through the honest headlines. So far, here are the…

I built the world's most impractical 1000-pixel display and anyone in the world can draw on it. It draws a single pixel at a time and takes 30-60 minutes to complete a single image. Anyone can participate in the project by voting for the next image to be drawn, and submitting images. https://kilopx.com/

Kitten TTS is an open-source series of tiny and expressive text-to-speech models for on-device applications. We are excited to launch a preview of our smallest model, which is less than 25 MB. This model has 15M parameters. This release supports English text-to-speech applications in eight voices: four male and four female. The model is quantized to int8 + fp16, and it uses onnx for runtime. The model is designed to run literally anywhere eg. raspberry pi, low-end smartphones, wearables, browsers etc. No GPU required! We're releasing this to give early users a sense of the latency and voices…

I was wondering how I can arrange objects along a spherical helix path, and read some articles on it. I ended up learning about parametric equations again, and make this visualization to document what I learned: https://visualrambling.space/moving-objects-in-3d/ feel free to visit and let me know what you think!

For HTML Day 2025 [1], I made a web service that displays the current sky at your approximate location as a CSS gradient. Colours are simulated on-demand using atmospheric absorption and scattering coefficients. Updates every minute, without the use of client-side JavaScript.
