    Hi HN, We built Shadow, a real-time meeting assistant that listens to your call and surfaces useful prompts while you’re speaking. The idea came from a simple observation: during important conversations (sales calls, founder meetings, interviews) you often realize the best question or insight 5 minutes too late. Shadow tries to solve that by acting like a quiet wingman during the call. What it does right now: • Tracks agenda topics so conversations don’t drift • Suggests follow-up questions based on what’s being said • Surfaces useful facts or angles in real time This is still an early MVP…

    Hi HN, I built a Chrome extension that helps during live interviews. Flow is simple: press Record, capture the interviewer’s question, it gets transcribed, and you get a structured answer in real time. I recently added a screenshot feature because many interview prompts are visual (coding tasks, system design prompts, error output on screen). You can take a screenshot and the AI generates a response based on what’s displayed.

    Coding interviews are broken. They're a gatekeeping ritual that has NOTHING to do with actual software engineering. We're forced to memorize obscure data structures and algorithms we'll never use, while being watched like lab rats through screen-sharing. I got fed up and built Stealth Interview - an undetectable AI assistant that works during technical interviews. It runs silently in the background while you're screen-sharing on Zoom or any other platform. The interviewer sees nothing, but you get the help you need. THIS is the only way you game the system, because the game is rigged. This…

  • Hi everyone, I built PyXL — a hardware processor that executes a custom assembly generated from Python programs, without using a traditional interpreter or virtual machine. It compiles Python -> CPython Bytecode -> Instruction set designed for direct hardware execution. I’m sharing an early benchmark: a GPIO test where PyXL achieves a 480ns round-trip toggle — compared to 14-25 micro seconds on a MicroPython Pyboard - even though PyXL runs at a lower clock (100MHz vs. 168MHz). The design is stack-based, fully pipelined, and preserves Python's dynamic typing without static type restrictions.…
