What it does

Stenox is smart voice dictation for macOS. Dictate anywhere—any app, any browser, any text field. Run smart transcription locally with Whisper and MLX, use popular cloud providers with your own API keys, or try Stenox Cloud. Speech is automatically cleaned up—filler words removed, formatting applied. Add custom vocabulary for names and jargon. Create profiles that auto-switch based on your active app. Your data stays private,on-device, or per the api key's privacy policy.

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
