What it does

I’m a solo developer who built MenuBarMonitor for Apple Silicon because Activity Monitor felt too limited. My app shows detailed CPU (P/E cores), GPU, RAM, and temperature stats in the menu bar. It includes real memory pressure, thermal state, optional process affinity, and a widget. It’s lightweight, private, needs no root, runs on macOS 13+ Website: MenuBarMonitor.com

    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…
