Pocket Listen

Reading is hard. Listen to articles instead.

In plain words

Pocket Listen is an audio app that converts articles into spoken word content for iOS, iPad, and Android devices. It allows users to listen to articles instead of reading them, making content consumption more accessible during commutes or multitasking. The app integrates with Pocket's reading list functionality, letting users build a queue of articles to hear narrated aloud. It's designed for people who prefer audio consumption or have limited time for traditional reading.

  • Eigendrum - Draw any shape and hear what it sounds like as a drum▲243

    Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…
