What it does

Paper is a realistic digital notebook made only for writing. No folders. No productivity systems. No infinite pages. You buy a notebook, give it a name, and start writing. Flip pages. Hear the sound. Feel the limit. It has 200 pages. When you fill them, that notebook is done. You can keep it, and start a new one. Paper exists to create a feeling — the feeling of sitting down and writing things out.

isometric.nyc – giant isometric pixel art map of NYC▲1,325
Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
