LaunchDeck
LaunchDeck - Launchpad Alternative for macOS 26
What it does
LaunchDeck is a native Launchpad alternative for macOS that makes opening, browsing, and organizing apps faster and cleaner. Designed for macOS 26 with a modern Liquid Glass look and support for macOS 14+, it gives you instant access to all apps and folders in a smooth, minimal interface. Use full-screen mode for a familiar Launchpad feel, or Compact Mode for a smaller menu-like launcher that stays out of the way.

- AOAn open source Launchpad for macOS 26Sep 2025 · github.com · ▲51
An open sourced version of Launchpad that I enhanced, you can import from old system Launchpad (just one click), and most of things look same. There are also a lot of functions, like adjust / display / hide icon size and title, localize icons, game controller support, i18n, voice over, etc. Still updating, open an issue if there are any problems. Hope this could help if someone updated to MacOS26 and not happy with new Launchpad :) Thank you.

Hey we are Computable. We spent years building trading infrastructure at Jump Trading and Coinbase.

The same H100 rents at a 2x spread depending on who’s asking, and once you sign a 24-month lease, it can never change hands. So we built a market for GPU nodes, sold by the calendar week. Here are three things you can do on it that you can’t do anywhere else: - Buy exactly the weeks you need. Three nodes for the last…

Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
