LarpIn
LinkedIn, but everyone admits they're larping
What it does
A working parody social network. One global feed, so everyone lands in the same place, and you can DM anyone with no connection request. You get a fake persona on arrival, no signup. Posts get a Larp Level scored on buzzword density. The Larpboard ranks everyone by openly fake follower counts. Larpmaxx writes the whole "You need to be X-maxxing" post for you. Reactions include Grindset, Labubu and Larp Larp Larp Sahur. Premium costs $0 and the gold badge does nothing. Built on Rails 8.

- LPLinkedIn Profile Roaster crossed 70k profiles2024 · ▲9
Hey HN! I made a thing that roasts people's LinkedIn profiles and it's low-key hilarious. Just throw your LinkedIn URL in there and watch it tear apart all the cringey jargon and humble-brags. 70K+ people have gotten roasted so far. Check it out: https://liroast.web.app/ But be warned - it has no chill! Lemme know what you think and if you have any ideas to make the burns even sicker.

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…

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.
