What it does
A tiny creature, a file shelf and a weather peek, all tucked into your MacBook notch. Free for macOS.
Your MacBook notch is dead space. Notchling puts a small creature in it that holds your files: drag one near and it opens its mouth, keeps it, and gives it back when you drag it out. Or switch to the weather. Right-click to swap. Go on, feed it something. In the app you drag a real file at the notch. The notch is the one part of your screen that is always visible. It may as well hold something you like . Drag a file, a link, a line of text, or a screenshot straight off the floating thumbnail. The mouth opens, it swallows, and it hands everything back whenever you want it. Then right-click a held image and it will chew : to JPEG, to PNG, smaller, or read the words out of a screenshot for…from notchling.zopcloud.zop.dev

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
