What it does

Utter is a smart dictation app for macOS and iOS that understands intent—not just words. Instead of raw transcription, Utter runs your voice through custom AI prompts to clean up, rewrite, or structure text before inserting it directly at your cursor. • System-wide: works in any app • Custom prompts: emails, Markdown, JSON • Free with BYOK • Privacy-first: no accounts, no data retention • iOS companion: custom keyboard for dictation anywhere, with cross-device sync

    I use dictation a lot for writing, notes, and prompting agents.

A few things it does today: - global dictation with customizable shortcuts - saved modes for…

  • Hey we are Computable. We spent years building trading infrastructure at Jump Trading and Coinbase. From that point of view, compute looks like energy markets before 2000: everything trades through private bilateral leases, there’s no visible price, and nothing can be resold.

Here are three things you can do on it that you can’t do anywhere else: - Buy exactly the weeks you need. Three nodes for the last…

    Community, All the HN belong to you. This is an archive of hacker news that fits in your browser. When I made HN Made of Primes I realized I could probably do this offline sqlite/wasm thing with the whole GBs of archive. The whole dataset. So I tried it, and this is it. Have Hacker News on your device. Go to this repo (https://github.com/DOSAYGO-STUDIO/HackerBook): you can download it. Big Query -> ETL -> npx serve docs - that's it. 20 years of HN arguments and beauty, can be yours forever. So they'll never die. Ever. It's the unkillable static archive of HN and it's…
