Show HN: BioLight – Passive entropy engine: raw randomness and 0 post-processing

Hacker News - Mon, 04/21/2025 - 1:24pm

BioLight is a new kind of entropy engine. It passively accumulates entropy over time, from volatile raw inputs, filtering only the statistically elite samples. No hashing, no whitening, no compression (still 7.9+ Shannon entropy). Entropy is stored and exported in raw form, transparently. Designed to run indefinitely, grows stronger and purer over time, and be verifiable by anyone. Released under the Ladaxia_Public_License. Open to all feedback: scientific and practical.

Show HN: Light like the Terminal – Meet GTK LLM Chat Front End

Hacker News - Mon, 04/21/2025 - 12:36pm

Author here. I wanted to keep my conversation with #Gemini about code handy while discussing something creative with #ChatGPT and using #DeepSeek in another window. I think it's a waste to have Electron apps and so wanted to chat with LLMs on my own terms. When I discovered the llm CLI tool I really wanted to have convenient and pretty looking access to my conversations, and so I wrote gtk-llm-chat - a plugin for llm that provides an applet and a simple window to interact with LLM models.

Make sure you've configure llm first (https://llm.datasette.io/en/stable/)

I'd love to get feedback, PRs and who knows, perhaps a coffee! https://buymeacoffee.com/icarito

Ask HN: Anyone using LLMs as coach or therapist?

Hacker News - Mon, 04/21/2025 - 12:32pm

Is anyone else using LLMs as a coach or therapist. I'm currently exploring local LLMs as a way to enhance my journaling practice with a coach or therapist. Would love to get some inspiration and ideas on how others are doing this and which tools you use?
