What it does
A compiled identity kernel — a Rust/WASM binary that answers questions about one person, in a terminal. - keshavashiya/monad
▶ Live console: keshavashiya.github.io/monad — or run it in your own terminal: MONAD is a compiled identity kernel: a single Rust core that AI agents can interview , that runs anywhere from one binary, and that remembers its visitors on their own machine — never on a server . It is compiled, not served. There is no database, no required backend — only a kernel and its embedded vault. The browser page is not "a website with a terminal theme." It is one adapter over the kernel — the same core also runs on the CLI ( npx keshavashiya ), in wasmtime , and as an MCP server an AI agent can connect to. One core, many protocols — the same local-first, memory-first philosophy behind brain , docify ,…from github.com

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
