RainSleep

I built RainSleep.net to provide a peaceful, distraction-free sound experience for sleeping, relaxing, or focusing. The site offers a growing library of high-quality ambient soundtracks, including: – Rain (gentle, thunderstorm, flowing water) – Birdsong & forest sounds – Tibetan singing bowls – Rain + soft piano – White noise / pink noise Each track is available in multiple durations (30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 8 hours) and plays directly in-browser with no ads, no signup, no popups — just a clean audio player. Everything is mobile-friendly and optimized for long listening sessions.…

    A rain Pomodoro with brown noise, ASMR, and Middle Eastern music2025 · forgetoolz.com · ▲104

    I built this because most Pomodoro timers felt too sterile. I wanted something that actually pulls you in with rain, brown noise, soft ASMR, and a few Middle Eastern tracks. Added animated backgrounds so it’s not just a blank screen. Runs fully in your browser. No accounts, no tracking, just open it and focus. If you give it a try or have ideas to make it better, I’d love to hear.

    Hey HN, I've been having trouble sleeping lately. Tried various white noise apps but most are either paid or cluttered with ads. So I built my own. https://whitenoiseforsleeping.rest Features: - Mix 6 nature sounds (rain, thunder, fire, wind, stream, birds) - 7 ambient scene backgrounds - Sleep timer with fade-out - Settings auto-saved to localStorage - No signup, no ads, no tracking Tech stack: React + Vite, hosted on Cloudflare Pages. The rain + fire combo works surprisingly well for me - usually fall asleep within 20 minutes now. Would love to hear your feedback or suggestions…

    I might be the only SRE on Earth with his own bowling center. It's a more in-depth gig than you'd think. My family and I bought an abandoned 8-lane bowling center in the rural mid-west. In our small town there weren't many recreation options for families. You've heard of a food desert? This is an R&R desert. It had been abandoned for a good reason. The roof leaks, the electrical system was constantly surging, and my 70-year-old bowling equipment (still) doesn't work perfectly. The system that keeps your score is particularly interesting to me. It's the thing you watch during your game, but…

    Over the past few months, our team has been building more and more slidedecks using web frontend technologies with coding harnesses like Claude Code, but a common complaint is to make even small edits we need to edit the code either manually or via the harness. To avoid this loop, I ended up creating Bento, a single HTML file with everything you need in a slide tool including animations and shared editing. There's no install or cloud login, everything works offline. The default deck is around 560 KB and it doesn't need to fetch anything once you got it. Open it in a browser and then you can…

  • A few days ago I found myself trying out GLM 5.2 and was really positively impressed. The capabilities and security I was getting from this LLM are similar to those I've gotten from models like Claude or GPT, and this really surprised me. But then I thought, "I wonder how it would work on a normal computer like mine," and above all, "I wonder if it would work without going into OOM on a computer like mine." So I started working with the help of agents to test this possibility. I started converting the model to int4, understanding MTP usage, and if possible implementing DSA for long context.…

    Hello! For the last 2 months, I've been building OpenSEO. It's a user friendly UI wrapping the DataForSEO API which has high quality SEO data for keywords, backlinks, AI SEO and competitor research. Instead of paying $100+ per month, you buy DataForSEO credits and pay only for usage. The coolest thing about the project so far has been hearing about what people are building on top of it. People are using coding agents to quickly integrate with Google Search Console, Google Ads and building their own AI SEO and reporting features. Many were already building their own custom solutions around…
