Technical interviews are hard, so we built a voice agent for practice
Hey HN! I’m Andrew, and I built Code Coach with my good friends, Akshay and Chetan. Code Coach is an AI-powered interview coach that you talk to. It plugs right into Leetcode and turns any problem into a mock interview – it grills you the same way a real interviewer would and provides in-depth feedback on where you can improve. I built Code Coach to solve some of my own problems when practicing for technical interviews. I knew I had to practice communicating my reasoning while coding, but found it intimidating to schedule mock interviews with friends. More often than not, I ended up talking…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Hey HN! I’m Andrew, and I built Code Coach with my good friends, Akshay and Chetan. Code Coach is an AI-powered interview coach that you talk to. It plugs right into Leetcode and turns any problem into a mock interview – it grills you the same way a real interviewer would and provides in-depth feedback on where you can improve. I built Code Coach to solve some of my own problems when practicing for technical interviews. I knew I had to practice communicating my reasoning while coding, but found it intimidating to schedule mock interviews with friends. More often than not, I ended up talking to a wall to replicate a more ‘real’ interview environment! Code Coach allows me to simulate unlimited mock interviews and master more challenging problems with live guidance. Here’s the link - https://www.trycodecoach.com (try out our demo!). With latency, transcription, and speech synthesis improving in the Voice AI space, the timing is ripe for more personalized, live coaching products. Thanks for the support, excited to hear your feedback!

You can use it live during your interview or practice mocks interviews. It can also solve Leetcode and IQ questions on the go. Making online and telephone interviews easy peasy.

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.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
