What it does
PhDino Calc 95 is a free, browser-based toolkit of structural, mechanical, electrical, and geotechnical calculators, paired with a wiki and step-by-step project guides. It's built for students and hobbyists tackling medium-complexity problems — not a replacement for professional engineering tools, but a learning-first companion for understanding *why* the numbers come out the way they do, with live diagrams alongside every calculation.
92 free engineering calculators across 12 fields — each with a live diagram, a plain-English guide, and step-by-step project guides. No sign-up; runs in your browser.
PhDino is a free collection of 92 engineering calculators across 12 fields: structural, mechanical, electrical, and geotechnical engineering, plus civil and construction materials, chemistry, solar and renewable energy, manufacturing and machining, aerospace, physiology, motorsport, and digital logic. The calculators run entirely in your browser — no account, nothing to install, and what you type is never sent to a server. A few calculators to start with: Beam Deflection , Ohm's Law , Column Buckling , Concrete Volume , Solar Array Sizing , BMI Calculator . Or browse all 92 by field below. Every calculator does three things at once: it computes results in real time as you type (no…from phdino.com

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…
