Pulse HR

What it does

We wanted to build something for the people: instead of numbers about the business, collect info about the sentiment. How you feel and how you perform have other dimensions rather than only productivity and earnings. Join our beta and mocked version of this new way of seeing a company. Right now we are not focused on implementation, rather on feedback collection and feature selection: we give you access to an instant demo of the product without a "contact sales" wall.

Your best work is buried in a Slack thread from March. Pulse HR makes it impossible to miss — three lines a day in Status Log, a kudos that sticks, a growth trail you carry into your next conversation. Open-source workspace for the IC. Self-host in 90 seconds. The demo is the sales call.

Pulse HR pulls it out. Open-source workspace for the IC — three lines in Status Log, a kudos that sticks, a growth trail that doesn't live in someone else's spreadsheet. Self-host in 90 seconds with `docker compose up`, or pay us to host. The demo is the sales call. Pulse HR is currently a frontend-only mock. We deliberately ship it before the backend so the people who use HR software every day can shape what we build first. Click around, break things, then tell us what's missing — feedback is the only piece that talks to a real backend, and that's the piece we want to hear from you on. Every employee, project, document and request lives in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server. No…from pulsehr.it

  Talanoa▲346

  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…

  Homebrew 6.0.0▲1,481

  Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

  Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
