What it does
iOS screen time app that actually works, no fluff, no accounts, no data, no paid trials. Short Stops Turns away from daily limits, and instead blocks based on 30 minute windows, this way it targets 'usage density' rather than daily limits. Conditional Blocks AND/OR conditions with location, time of day, day of week and screen time to trigger blocks, or exemptions (allow more scrolling) Comrades Implements a friends feature, that if you relapse will be held accountable by your friends.
Vindica is a screen time blocking app for iPhone. Blocked only when you should be, unblocked when you should be.
This is a tool for people who would like to study or work without distraction. There are a million apps out there that exist to build habits and stop bad ones. The reason Vindica exists is: none of them do the complete job. Opal, Onesec, Socialite are all very very good — don't get us wrong — but you'll download them, and then still find yourself doomscrolling. It's not that they are easy to get out of, that's not the problem. It's that they just don't hit the nail on the head. Blocked only when you should be. Unblocked when you should be.

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

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…
