Interactive map of the Odyssey with tap-to-gloss Homeric Greek
Built an interactive atlas of Odysseus's voyage. See where the stops fall in today's world, with etymological and knowledge nuggets. 17 stops from Troy to Ithaca. Every stop has Homer's actual Greek (Perseus TEI), Murray's 1919 translation, and every single Greek word is tappable for a translation. Press N and the ancient chart swaps to today's satellite view: these are real places (e.g. Scylla refers to a town called Scilla in Calabria). Stack: SvelteKit static + MapLibre, no backend, all public-domain texts and art with a full colophon. Please leave corrections and feedback!

What it does
Sail Odysseus
The war is won, the city burned. Twelve ships point west toward a home ten years away. “Tell me, O Muse, of the man of many devices, who wandered full many ways after he had sacked the sacred citadel of Troy. Many were the men whose cities he saw and whose mind he learned, aye, and many the woes he suffered in his heart upon the sea, seeking to win his own life and the return of hisfrom georgemasto.com

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

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.
