TunD. Make friends' PCs appear on the same VLAN
Hi HN! A few friends and I tried playing the video game Artemis (the fully cooperative Spaceship Bridge Simulator) together over LAN. For some reason, we couldn't all connect to the same network, so we decided to try using some free tool that would let us join the same virtual LAN without too much configuration (me and one other person were the only technical ones, and we had to explain it to other people who deliberately don't feel like learning technical stuff). The problem was that since we had different platforms (some on Windows, some on Mac, some on GNU/Linux), we couldn't find…

Hi HN! A few friends and I tried playing the video game Artemis (the fully cooperative Spaceship Bridge Simulator) together over LAN. For some reason, we couldn't all connect to the same network, so we decided to try using some free tool that would let us join the same virtual LAN without too much configuration (me and one other person were the only technical ones, and we had to explain it to other people who deliberately don't feel like learning technical stuff). The problem was that since we had different platforms (some on Windows, some on Mac, some on GNU/Linux), we couldn't find common ground, just wasted time. That's where the bet to try rewriting a virtual LAN generator that did more or less the same things came from (with the due/necessary limitations, but that would fulfill our main purpose), and that's how TunD was born: https://danterolle.github.io/tund/ One machine runs as the hub, the others join as clients, and each gets a 10.9.0.x address. It uses UDP, supports basic IPv4 broadcast, and includes a CLI plus an optional Flutter desktop launcher. I would love to get feedback both on using it and on the code itself. It is not perfect, but it works well for my use case, and maybe it will work well for others too.

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:…

I might be the only SRE on Earth with his own bowling center. It's a more in-depth gig than you'd think. My family and I bought an abandoned 8-lane bowling center in the rural mid-west. In our small town there weren't many recreation options for families. You've heard of a food desert? This is an R&R desert. It had been abandoned for a good reason. The roof leaks, the electrical system was constantly surging, and my 70-year-old bowling equipment (still) doesn't work perfectly. The system that keeps your score is particularly interesting to me. It's the thing you watch during your game, but…

Over the past few months, our team has been building more and more slidedecks using web frontend technologies with coding harnesses like Claude Code, but a common complaint is to make even small edits we need to edit the code either manually or via the harness. To avoid this loop, I ended up creating Bento, a single HTML file with everything you need in a slide tool including animations and shared editing. There's no install or cloud login, everything works offline. The default deck is around 560 KB and it doesn't need to fetch anything once you got it. Open it in a browser and then you can…

A few days ago I found myself trying out GLM 5.2 and was really positively impressed. The capabilities and security I was getting from this LLM are similar to those I've gotten from models like Claude or GPT, and this really surprised me. But then I thought, "I wonder how it would work on a normal computer like mine," and above all, "I wonder if it would work without going into OOM on a computer like mine." So I started working with the help of agents to test this possibility. I started converting the model to int4, understanding MTP usage, and if possible implementing DSA for long context.…
