• PiWrite – Kindle Paperwhite to Write

  - Standard Apple Bluetooth Keyboard + Apple Pencil clipped on side[3] Also, I might be old-fashioned, but when I need to type outside -- which is frequent -- I just bring my laptop.

• Show HN: I built a free in-browser Llama 3 chatbot powered by WebGPU

• Show HN: Simple tool built for my manager is now becoming its own startup

  Not the person you’re replying to but CleanShotX [0] is my favorite tool for this. Yes macOS has improved their screenshot annotation tools but they suck compared to CleanShotX. I take way more screenshots now to covey information and it’s invaluable to quickly explain a UI. I make guides for work or my clients with it all the time. I use it to highlight the button they need to click, label “1”, “2”, “3”, for the... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
