Idle9
A dev environment your AI never has to rebuild.
What it does
Idle9 gives your AI coding tools a real Linux workspace that stays alive between sessions. Your files, dependencies and running services persist across Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and any MCP app.
Idle9 gives your AI a real Linux computer that remembers what it installed last week. Tools, caches, repos and running services survive between sessions. Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP app in about thirty seconds.
It keeps what it installed last week — the tools, the caches, the repos, the half-finished branch — and it is still there tomorrow. : the line spacing here is set by line-height, and literal newlines between block children would add a second, uncontrollable source of it. --> ● connected everything as you left it $ which ruff && ls ~/notes /usr/local/bin/ruff ← installed nine days ago architecture.md todo.md ·· you close your laptop ·· ◼ sleeps · the whole disk is kept ·· next week, from ChatGPT ·· ● waking… back in 4s — nothing to reinstall One computer, two apps, a week apart — and not a single npm install in between.

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…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
