Slack + Discourse + StackOverflow = EffectiveDiscussions
Hi, I've combined features from Slack (chat software), Discourse (forum software) and StackOverflow (question-answers) into a single piece of software, EffectiveDiscussions. EffectiveDiscussions solves some problems here at HN that annoy me, and you too I would think: 1) When you return to a topic, how do you find the comments added while you were away? 2) It's hard to find the parent comment, if it's far away. Then, once you've found it, it's hard to find the comment you were reading before, somewhere far away downwards. 3) Downvote because disagree or not? Solutions & demo:…

I'm Seth, creator of discourse.fm, a browser-based tool/platform to create live audio chat rooms. I just launched an extension of the site - https://hackernews.discourse.fm/ - which pulls stories in real-time from the HN site using the public API, and enables anyone to join a live audio discussion about the story (think Clubhouse rooms autogenerated for HN stories). Once you enter a room, you can grab the link generated for a room and paste it back to the comments on the HN story to invite more participants. hackernews.discourse.fm is both a full-fledged product and a…

Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…
