Vlatua: Scouts & Adventurers Map

What it does

Last year, a wildfire came within 2 km of my home. I stayed sleepless up all night, ready to get everyone out the second it reached us. Every app I tried was hours behind.. the best was 3hrs late. So I emailed dozens of satellite companies, got commercial access and built Vlatua. Drop a circle anywhere on the map, your house, mother's home, your kids' school and it wakes you the moment fire crosses in (~10 min). Plus layers for quakes, live flights, sharks, aurora, icebergs, planets, meteors.

  I built a real-time OSINT dashboard pulling 15 live global feedsMar 2026 · github.com · ▲312

  Sup HN, So I got tired of bouncing between Flightradar, MarineTraffic, and Twitter every time something kicked off globally, so I wrote a dashboard to aggregate it all locally. It’s called Shadowbroker. I’ll admit I leaned way too hard into the "movie hacker" aesthetic for the UI, but the actual pipeline underneath is real. It pulls commercial/military ADS-B, the AIS WebSocket stream (about 25,000+ ships), N2YO satellite telemetry, and GDELT conflict data into a single MapLibre instance. Getting this to run without melting my browser was the hardest part. I'm running this on a laptop…

  Near-realtime cloud maps for weather visualisation, 3D models and more2023 · github.com · ▲68

  This is a service I've built to provide equirectangular cloud maps of the whole Earth, updated every 3 hours, for free. It's based on infrared and visible light data from EUMETSAT, processed to enhance the clouds and try to reduce the impact of surface temperatures on the final image. I built it because it's surprisingly hard to find these kinds of images in a format that's useful to developers and hobbyists. I was building a 3D ISS tracker and wanted to include live clouds but couldn't find anything good, so I got sidetracked, and here we are.

  Needle: We Distilled Gemini Tool Calling into a 26M Model▲776

  Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
