StrikeRadar – USA Strike on Iran Monitor

What it does

StrikeRadar is a real-time geopolitical risk monitoring dashboard that tracks indicators of potential USA-Iran military escalation. By aggregating publicly available data from five independent sources and smoothing them with an asymmetric exponential moving average, StrikeRadar provides a stable composite risk score reflecting the current level of tension between the two nations. The dashboard combines six data signals into a single risk percentage, updated every 30 minutes. Each signal measures a different dimension of geopolitical tension, from news sentiment to political rhetoric: The composite score maps to four risk levels: Quiet (0-30%), Tense (31-60%), Escalating (61-85%), and War…from usstrikeradar.com

  Is Hormuz open yet?Apr 2026 · ishormuzopenyet.com · ▲484

  I built this because I was interested in the data. Didn't fully get it to what I wanted, but thought I'd share it nonetheless. Maybe someone has better data sources they could share! Turns out live ship tracking APIs are expensive so I manually just copied the json from https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/home/centerx:57.4/cente... I'll probably have an ai agent do the same thing on some cron interval, if this gets any fanfare. To actually know if the port is open without live ship tracking I found…

  I simulated closing the Strait of Hormuz on real oil trade dataJul 2026 · globaloilnetwork.staffinganalytics.io · ▲244

  OP here: I created this visualization tool as the byproduct of a supply chain class I taught at Columbia. The pedagogical exercise grew into a full blown visualization and paper about global oil trade. The model: The mechanics are the same as the financial network Eisenberg-Noe: Instead of banks, every country consumes oil interconnected via bilateral trading. Shocks propagate throughout the network, depleting oil reserves when bottleneck nodes (such as the Strait of Hormuz) are blocked. Insights: The interesting part is the mechanics of how the crisis unfolds: for example, France receives 0…

  I built a tool that watches webpages and exposes changes as RSSMar 2026 · sitespy.app · ▲320

  I built Site Spy after missing a visa appointment slot because a government page changed and I didn’t notice for two weeks. It watches webpages for changes and shows the result like a diff. The part I think HN might find interesting is that it can monitor a specific element on a page, not just the whole page, and it can expose changes as RSS feeds. So instead of tracking an entire noisy page, you can watch just a price, a stock status, a headline, or a specific content block. When it changes, you can inspect the diff, browse the snapshot history, or follow the updates in an RSS reader. It’s…

  isometric.nyc – giant isometric pixel art map of NYC▲1,325

  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
