Magic links – Get video and dev logs without installing anything
Hey HN, For a while now, our team has been trying to solve a common problem: getting all the context needed to debug a bug report without the endless back-and-forth. It’s hard to fix what you can't see, and console logs, network requests, and other dev data are usually missing from bug reports. We’ve been working on a new tool called Recording Links. The idea is simple: you send a link to a user or teammate, and when they record their screen to show an issue, the link automatically captures a video of the problem along with all the dev context, like console logs and network requests.

In plain words
Magic Links is a dev tool that captures screen recordings along with console logs and network requests without requiring installation. Developers send a link to users or teammates, who record their screen to demonstrate an issue, and the tool automatically collects the video and technical context together. The product is designed for development teams seeking to reduce back-and-forth communication by obtaining complete, debuggable bug reports in a single submission.

Hey HN, For a while now, our team has been trying to solve a common problem: getting all the context needed to debug a bug report without the endless back-and-forth. It’s hard to fix what you can't see, and console logs, network requests, and other dev data are usually missing from bug reports. We’ve been working on a new tool called Recording Links. The idea is simple: you send a link to a user or teammate, and when they record their screen to show an issue, the link automatically captures a video of the problem along with all the dev context, like console logs and network requests. Our goal is to make it so you can get a complete, debuggable bug report in one go. We think this can save a ton of time that's normally spent on follow-up calls and emails. We’re a small team and would genuinely appreciate your thoughts on this. Is this a problem you face? How would you improve this? Any and all feedback—positive or critical—would be incredibly helpful as we continue to build. PS - you can try it out from here: https://jam.dev/recording-links

I built the world's most impractical 1000-pixel display and anyone in the world can draw on it. It draws a single pixel at a time and takes 30-60 minutes to complete a single image. Anyone can participate in the project by voting for the next image to be drawn, and submitting images. https://kilopx.com/

Kitten TTS is an open-source series of tiny and expressive text-to-speech models for on-device applications. We are excited to launch a preview of our smallest model, which is less than 25 MB. This model has 15M parameters. This release supports English text-to-speech applications in eight voices: four male and four female. The model is quantized to int8 + fp16, and it uses onnx for runtime. The model is designed to run literally anywhere eg. raspberry pi, low-end smartphones, wearables, browsers etc. No GPU required! We're releasing this to give early users a sense of the latency and voices…

I was wondering how I can arrange objects along a spherical helix path, and read some articles on it. I ended up learning about parametric equations again, and make this visualization to document what I learned: https://visualrambling.space/moving-objects-in-3d/ feel free to visit and let me know what you think!

For HTML Day 2025 [1], I made a web service that displays the current sky at your approximate location as a CSS gradient. Colours are simulated on-demand using atmospheric absorption and scattering coefficients. Updates every minute, without the use of client-side JavaScript.
