TVGuard

What it does

Parental controls barely exist on Android TV — and those that do want an account that uploads your kid's viewing history. TVGuard is local-first. The phone talks straight to the TV over your Wi-Fi: no account, no signup, usage data never leaves your network. Remote access is optional, encrypted, and off by default. Install the TV agent, pair from your phone, then set per-app PIN locks, daily limits and bedtime hours. It also PIN-protects the TV's own Settings so it can't be undone.

  Simple algorithm and color space to generate diverse skin tones▲627

  Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…

  I trained a 125M model to autocomplete piano on-device▲598

  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.
