Ask HN: What are you working on? (March 2025)
It's still a work in progres: https://github.com/mx4/gnss-rcv/
Some notes on the UI:
* I found the 50/50 split between video / map a bit annoying, especially on a 13" MacBook
* The volume slider takes up a lot of valuable space, and felt like your normal scrubber to scroll through the video
* Once you confirm a location, the whole UI changes again
* Overall (especially on my smaller screen), there was a lot of scrolling involved to get to buttons
So I built Slate — an AI-powered workspace that supports long-context reasoning (up to 1M tokens), persistent memory, and lets you work with multiple models (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, etc.) in a Notion-like interface.
It’s still early, but live. If anyone here experiments with long-context LLM use cases or AI tooling, I’d love your feedback — and I’m currently giving away credits to try the Gemini models because I’ve got $300 worth that expire in 48 hours. No catch, just want it used and tested.
First time building and launching something on my own — excited but also a bit overwhelmed. Appreciate any thoughts!

The AI is trained on 40,000+ hours of real psychotherapy sessions and provides individualized emotional guidance to help users manage stress, anxiety, and trauma. We partner with public institutions to deliver large-scale support and just launched a B2B program for employers.
Now preparing for EU expansion (starting with Germany), mobile app rollout, and voice interaction in Ukrainian. This is not just a chatbot – it’s scalable mental health infrastructure.

I'm askng because the answer will shed light on the level of privacy "the average consumer" is comfortable with.
We don’t train on user chats directly. Instead, we collaborate with a team of 42 certified psychologists who work with us to curate anonymized case structures, decision trees, and response strategies based on real but depersonalized therapeutic experience.
These professionals help us model how psychological support is provided — without ever using actual user conversations. Our system is trained on synthesized, anonymized session data that reflects best practices, not private logs.
It’s not buried in the T&Cs — we’re very explicit about our commitment to data ethics and user safety. No session data is used for model training, and user interaction is fully confidential and never stored in a way that links it to identities.
Our goal is to make high-quality support available without compromising trust. Let me know if you’d like more technical or ethical detail — happy to share!
Those decision trees sound interesting - are you, essentially, integrating an LLM and an expert system?
We combine the flexibility of an LLM with a structured layer of expert-driven decision trees and psychological frameworks. This hybrid approach lets us preserve nuance and personalization while maintaining safety, boundaries, and clinical integrity.
The decision tree layer is used both to steer responses contextually and to define escalation protocols (e.g., for suicidal ideation, PTSD triggers, or crisis states). It’s informed by standardized practices like CBT, trauma therapy, and psychological first aid, co-developed with our licensed psychologists.
So yes — think of it as an LLM augmented by a domain-specific expert system, designed for real-world psychological use.
Happy to share more if you’re interested in how we’re scaling this across multilingual and cultural contexts)
Also considering working on a traefik plugin + helm chart for sending LLMs that ignore robots.txt to a tarpit like iocaine/nepenthes
The one that's furthest along is a database and (currently extremely crude) webapp for asking interesting data type questions about Lotus setlists. I built a little scraper for Nugs and have all their setlists, I just need to take it further and get some of the queries I want implemented and put some kind of halfway decent interface in front.
I also built a little app that uses your Claude API key to generate "generative art," so you send in a prompt and it sends back some visualization code and renders it. It's fun to mess with but I haven't seen anything come out that's wowed me yet.
Got some other little hackeries going too, a lot of my recent hacking time has gone towards getting the -arr apps and their whole little ecosystem set up on my home server. I got a little N100 machine back in December and have been having tons of fun hosting little docker gewgaws.
