MessageDrop

Location-based messages without the noise

What it does

MessageDrop is a location-first social app: place messages on a map, follow places instead of people, and discover what matters nearby. No profiling, no engagement-driven algorithm, no doomscrolling. Public messages get equal visibility, data stays local whenever possible, and private communication is end-to-end encrypted.

    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…
