nonis··on Show HN: Lofi Cities – Pixel-art city nights with browser-generated lofi
I had a similar idea yesterday - https://www.lofiwizard.com/ - I mainly wanted to have Opus 5.5 generate random browser scenes to see what it could do. I love how your pixel cities came out! I tried to do similar music via code but it never sounded right so I had Google's Lyria 3 model make the music instead.

As of recently, you can spend credits within the app and purchase audiobooks.
nonis··on Show HN: Find3 – An indoor positioning system for smartphones and laptops
Unfortunately no. Last I worked on it it was pretty heavily integrated with their mobile maps application (https://code.facebook.com/posts/504406169737284/instrumentin...) and there wasn't any plan on open sourcing.

Yeah, BLE beacons aren't particularly accurate for an IPS. I worked on this problem a few years ago at FB, for the purposes of helping employees find themselves + meeting rooms on a mobile app. We really only needed 2-3 meter accuracy, so people could figure out approximately where they are. BLE signals are crazy noisy, so you need to tack on a lot of filtering (kalman filter, etc) and it really helps if you have multiple data sources (wifi signals, gyroscope, RF, etc). We could also kinda cheat by adding a track to the center of each hallway on the map, then magnet users towards the track.
