PeerPause
Ask your friends for screentime
What it does
PeerPause is an iPhone screen time app that blocks distracting apps. Instead of relying on pure willpower to fight phone addiction, PeerPause helps you stay accountable with a Time Buddy.

They can approve or deny your request.

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…
