Parameter Maximizer

Scores your life mathematically. Shows what to improve first

What it does

Parameter Maximizer builds a mathematical model of your entire life, then calculates what to work on next. Input real metrics, personality frameworks, and identity factors. The scoring engine infers where you actually stand across every parameter. A coefficient matrix models thousands of relationships, so when one thing improves, the system shows you exactly what else moved, so you know the smallest effort for the biggest return.

    We made an open-source personalization engine2022 · github.com · ▲284

    Hey, HN! You probably know that the ordering of products on Amazon, posts in FB, and search results in Google is personalized for each visitor, as it directly affects conversion, click rate and engagement. But not everyone can afford to hire an army of PhDs to squeeze every penny out of the ranking, and not everyone agrees on the current (im)balance between privacy and profits. So we built Metarank, an open-source and privacy-focused personalization engine. It can rerank in real-time any type of content, using only the data you allow, and optimize metrics you define. We made a lot of…

    Unlearning Comparator, a visual tool to compare machine unlearning2025 · gnueaj.github.io · ▲40

    I built Unlearning Comparator, a visual analytics toolkit to help researchers and developers compare how different machine unlearning methods work. It provides a unified workflow to test for accuracy, efficiency, and privacy. You can check out the live demo linked in the post, and the source code is on GitHub: https://github.com/gnueaj/Machine-Unlearning-Comparator Our accompanying paper is currently under review at IEEE TVCG. Happy to answer any questions and would love to hear your feedback!

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

  • Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…

    With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
