What it does

Discover opportunities to improve performance, reduce time to resolution, and lower infrastructure costs through Polar Signals Cloud.

Polar Signals Cloud is an always-on, zero-instrumentation continuous profiling for CPU, GPU, and Memory that helps improve performance, understand incidents, and lower infrastructure costs.

LLMs are great at writing code, but blind to how it runs in production. Give your agent line-level execution context. Traditional CUDA profilers are built for debugging, not live systems. Polar Signals enables production-safe GPU profiling with minimal overhead. Learn more Safe to run continuously in production with minimal performance impact. Per-kernel timing, CPU stack traces, and CUDA Graph support. No filesystem writes. No network overhead. Powered by CUPTI and eBPF. Using Natural Language tools like Claude Code, Cursor, or other LLMs enhances performance analysis. MCP lets Claude Code, Cursor, and other LLMs access real profiling data without manual chart review. AI connects…from polarsignals.com

    This is a service I've built to provide equirectangular cloud maps of the whole Earth, updated every 3 hours, for free. It's based on infrared and visible light data from EUMETSAT, processed to enhance the clouds and try to reduce the impact of surface temperatures on the final image. I built it because it's surprisingly hard to find these kinds of images in a format that's useful to developers and hobbyists. I was building a 3D ISS tracker and wanted to include live clouds but couldn't find anything good, so I got sidetracked, and here we are.

    Hey folks, I’m Hassan, one of the co-founders of Infracost (https://www.infracost.io). Infracost helps engineers see and reduce the cloud cost of each infrastructure change before they merge their code. The way Infracost works is we gather pricing data from Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud. What we call a ‘Pricing Service’, which now holds around 9 million live price points (!!). Then we map these prices to infrastructure code. Once the mapping is done, it enables us to show the cost impact of a code change before it is merged, directly in GitHub, GitLab etc.…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
