Hi HN, I’m Berat. I built TabRush, a simple ad marketplace inspired by the One Million Dollar Homepage concept. How it works: One Safari tab is the main spotlight for the latest sponsor Side tabs show previous sponsors Each new booking increases the next spot’s value I built this for indie makers and early-stage startups that want a lightweight way to get visibility without running complex ad campaigns. This is also my first time shipping with a vibe-coding workflow, and I built it in public. I’

I use Claude and Codex heavily for coding, and I kept burning through my quota halfway through the week. When I looked at my logs, most of my prompts were things like "summarize this," "reformat this JSON," or "write a docstring." Stuff that any small model handles fine. So I built NadirClaw. It's a Python proxy that sits between your app and your LLM providers. It classifies each prompt in about 10ms and routes simple ones to Gemini Flash, Ollama, or whatever cheap/local model you want. Only th

I created a free, open-source browser game inspired by Factorio. You place "Input" machines that produce streams of bytes. You use conveyor belts to feed those bytes through other machines which produce transformations, and then to "Output" machines which produce audio or visual effects. The game uses v86 to run a real Linux VM in the browser. I use the 9p filesystem to enable IPC via FIFO pipes, so shell commands can stream data continuously rather than just running once. Features: - 30+ machin

Solid is an early experiment in gamifying daily work for professionals without childish UI, avatars, or a gamer aesthetic. This page includes an interactive demo that simulates the core workflow: choosing priorities, staying in flow, and closing the day with intention. There’s no downloadable app yet. The goal of this demo is purely to validate whether this approach resonates before building the full product. Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47054686 Points: 1 # Comments: 1

Apple currently sells MacBooks equipped with its own M-series processors in a wide range of sizes and price points, all of which run the company’s newest operating system, macOS 26. Purchasing a new MacBook can be complicated if you’re trying to figure out what specs you need, but finding a deal on a relatively speedy model is surprisingly easy, especially since Apple increased the starting RAM on several models in late 2024 and hasn’t stopped. These days, it’s not uncommon to see various MacB

It's a Discord-inspired chat app that runs entirely on the Cloudflare ecosystem: Workers for the API and serving the React frontend. Durable Objects to manage WebSocket connections and state (each chat room is a DO). D1 (SQLite) for message persistence and history. R2 for file uploads. I wanted to see if I could build a fully functional, real-time chat platform without managing a single container or VPS. It supports voice/video calls via WebRTC (mesh topology), file sharing, and even push notifi
