New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: I wrote an email app that accepts only one sender per inbox

Show HN: I wrote an email app that accepts only one sender per inbox 12 by edpin2000 | 5 comments on Hacker News. Infinite inboxes, including prefixes where you don't have to create inboxes before you use them -- they self create when you add a suffix. Three types of inboxes: - One sender. Locks to the first domain to send email (except gmail, outlook, etc where it locks to an email account for obivous reasons. It bounces everyone else. - Temporary. Lasts for a while (24h, 7days, etc) then bounces. Received messages stay or go as per your choice. - Prefix. The most powerful. Declare a prefix like "service" and then invent any suffix, like "service-netflix" or "service$bank" and it creates a new one-sender inbox locked to whoever wrote first. Bring you own domain. Bring your own AI (MCP server ready). Forwarding. Please help me test it.

New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: Nightwatch – a Mac menu-bar app that tells you when tonight is clear

Show HN: Nightwatch – a Mac menu-bar app that tells you when tonight is clear 8 by delphidolphin | 1 comments on Hacker News. Here in the north of England clear nights are at a premium, and it's never guaranteed that you'll be able to see anything but cloud. That's why I developed Nightwatch, so that I could be notified when one of those precious few nights where I could see into the heavens was available. Finding out whether tonight was worth setting up meant reading forecast charts every evening, usually to learn that it was not. Nightwatch does that reading for me. It sits in the Mac's menu bar and refreshes the forecast every 30 minutes. An hour before sunset it sends one notification, and only if there is an unbroken run of clear sky in astronomical darkness long enough to image in. Otherwise it says nothing: no news means "clouds". I hope this is useful for other hobbyist stargazers too! When I was a child I wanted desperately to be an astronaut or a ...

New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: We built a real-time desktop companion for patient's telehealth visits

Show HN: We built a real-time desktop companion for patient's telehealth visits 6 by nikilr | 2 comments on Hacker News. Hey HN, Some friends and I built an app called Sidekick that joins your telehealth visits in real-time. It explains medical terms and suggests useful questions, including ones you may not have thought to ask. After the visit, it provides a summary including next steps, so you can focus on the conversation instead of taking notes. The idea of Sidekick came from our team's experiences with healthcare. Our founder, Rahul, had stage three cancer at 17. His mom had to manage everything around his care: taking notes through treatment, figuring out what questions to ask, etc. A decade later and he’s now in remission, but still sees a lot of specialists and deals with the same challenges. Another teammate became a caregiver after his dad had a severe stroke. He found himself taking notes, looking up medical terms, and trying to keep track of what was said during e...

New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: Open-source model routing for coding agents at Astra-level performance

Show HN: Open-source model routing for coding agents at Astra-level performance 17 by adchurch | 1 comments on Hacker News. A few months ago we started building a model router for coding agents because we thought we could outperform any single model with an ensemble approach. Recently we’ve achieved that milestone and I want to talk about how we did it. First of all, a quick explanation: the Weave Router ( https://ift.tt/U5fvMyJ ) plugs into any coding agent (e.g. Claude Code or Codex) and intelligently switches between LLMs. So, for example, Astra handles tricky debugging or complex system design tasks, and Deepseek v4 Flash handles simple frontend updates. What we’re announcing today is our new routing model, which we’re calling Weave Router 2.0. We benchmarked 2.0 against GPT-6 Astra on Terminal Bench 4.0 and SWE Atlas. On both benchmarks, the router had equivalent pass rates. On Terminal Bench, the router hit 52% of Astra’s cost, and completed tasks 2.2x faster. On SWE Atlas, th...
