What it does

Stop the black screens and GPU driver timeouts caused by mismatched monitor refresh rates. Refresh Sync detects all your displays, finds a common Hz they all support, and syncs them with one click. Restore original settings anytime - even after reboot. Portable EXE, no installation. Built with native Win32 API - zero dependencies, zero bloat. Windows 11.

Running multiple monitors with different refresh rates? Windows 11 sometimes chokes on mixed Hz setups — causing black screens, GPU driver crashes, and stuttering when displays run at mismatched speeds.Refresh Sync detects all your monitors, their current resolutions and refresh rates, and lets you sync them to a common Hz with one click. Original settings are saved automatically — you can restore

    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…

  • Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
