Launch
A place for your scripts
What it does
Launch is a Mac application that runs built-in and custom JavaScript files. Your scripts live in ~/Launch (or another folder if you prefer) and you can connect to any Git backend to sync them. You can `cd` to change the active directory and some scripts will run in that directory (e.g. to copy or delete certain files) while others run anywhere (e.g. to open an app). You can think of it as a launcher with some shell functionality, or an extensible command line with quick launch and autocomplete.
Launch is a script runner that puts automation at your fingertips. With a global keyboard shortcut, you can execute scripts that run commands or automate repetitive tasks anywhere on your computer. It's always available, fast, and completely customizable to your workflow. Press ⌥ + Space (or define your own shortcut) from anywhere to instantly show the launcher. Use the built-in scripts, modify them, or create your own. Scripts are just JavaScript which can run on any machine. Sync your script collection across devices via Git. Share scripts with your team or keep them backed up privately. Built with 100% native macOS interface elements. Smooth animations, proper keyboard navigation, and…from staunchapps.com

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.
