Trip Mate
Hey HN, I built Trip Mate after discovering that rental companies often offer extremely cheap (sometimes even free) one-way camper van trips when they need their vehicles relocated. These deals were scattered across multiple rental platforms, making it tough to find them efficiently. The most interesting technical challenge was creating robust scrapers for multiple rental platforms, each with its unique data structures and quirks. I solved this by developing a flexible scraping framework in Python combined with PocketBase for storing and serving the data in real-time. The frontend uses…

Tinder-style trip planning – Trip planning for the brainrot era2025 · outbound-one.vercel.app · ▲9Hey there, I've been working on a project that helps you plan a trip by swiping through attractions like tinder.

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.…
