I check Hacker News way too much. I love seeing new tools and reading the comments, but I often get lost in the threads for hours.

To fix this, I built this tool. It sends me one email every day with a summary of the top posts and comments. I tried to make it sound like a buddy telling me over the phone.

It is open source and you can host it yourself. I hope it helps you save some time, too. I would love to hear your feedback!

Nice. Why not use a full-text search like self-hosted Typesense?

Full text search would be redundant as arXiv.org already supports it. For semantic search, Typesense has limited collection of embedding models. [^1]

I really like the sticky face menu on the bottom right. Never seen this before. Gave me some inspiration for one of my sites.

I’m using KeePass since decades.

Thx! It works surprisingly well. I have also added a retry button. This comes in handy when the result is not as good as expected.

I’m more than happy to send you the first version. Here is a video of how it works and form to request access: https://twitter.com/gherget/status/1623979080499470338

I think you're up to something here, I really like it. For me personally the automatic reply thing is less important than organising tasks from emails, but I do think it has some value. Good luck with the implementation!

I built this tool to remove the background of a selected object in an image and crop it. Most background removal tools require a brush to manually fix an image for multiple foreground elements. I wanted to make this easier. What do you think about my approach?

“the haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy.” Eurocrats seem similarly haunted by the fear that someone, somewhere — whether it be pharmaceutical companies or Greek public-sector employees — might be getting away with something.

Unfortunately, you can feel that in the EU.

I created an open source investing guide to make investing as easy as possible. My goal was to build a one-page tutorial and it should be fast and nicely readable on a mobile device. HTML, CSS and AMP-based. I added sources and links for further information.
