RestifEye
Break reminders that keep you fit
What it does
RestifEye reminds you to rest your eyes and move your body at healthy intervals. Every break shows an animated exercise - eye movements, neck stretches, shoulder rolls, or full-body moves - matched to your intensity setting. It detects when you're in a call and waits. It notices when you've already stepped away and credits you the break. It warns 30 seconds before taking your screen. It tracks your screen time and break patterns locally, with weekly advice. No accounts, no cloud, no telemetry.
A free break reminder for Linux. Waits through meetings, holds through films, and counts the breaks you already took. Guided exercises, an expressive tray icon, no telemetry.
It waits through your meetings. It counts the breaks you already took. Crisp at any size. Themed light and dark. Zero weight in the download. $ chmod +x RestifEye-*.AppImage $ ./RestifEye-*.AppImage AppImage Ubuntu · Debian · Mint DEB $ sudo apt install ./restifeye_*.deb .deb Fedora · RHEL · openSUSE RPM $ sudo dnf install ./RestifEye-*.rpm .rpm On GNOME, the app offers to install the AppIndicator extension in one click. KDE, XFCE, Cinnamon and MATE need nothing. No. No accounts, no telemetry. One optional weekly version check — switchable off. No. Mic, camera, DND or any idle inhibitor defers it. Hard cap: 15 minutes from when the break was due. Hold escape for three seconds. It goes on…from xern-ai.github.io

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.
