What it does
Hunting for APIs, writing scripts, worrying about permission. It's a part‑time job. Cloud models are powerful but risky; local models are safe but weak. * You can ask it to handle far more, the examples above are just the start. On a message, notification, or trigger, the AI acts proactively. PlugClaw runs a secure, privacy hardened Android system ( PlugOS ) with an AI agent that uses apps like a person – opening browsers, filling forms, sending messages. PlugClaw comes preloaded with dozens of frontier and confidential AI models. Choose the best model for the task, or bring your own API key (BYOK). PlugClaw keeps getting better.

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…
