Show HN: Traceroute Visualizer
This nifty tool plots the traceroute results and shows you the RTT as well as the distance travelled by the packets!<p>Supports MTR, flyingroutes and of course, traceroute.<p>The existing solutions were too limited so I made that.<p>Let me know if you have any feedback

Show HN: ChartDB Agent – Cursor for DB schema design
Last year we launched ChartDB OSS (<a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44972238">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44972238</a>) - an open-source tool that generates ER diagrams from your database (via query/sql/dbml) without needing direct DB access.<p>Now we’re launching the ChartDB Agent.<p>It helps you design databases from scratch or make schema changes with natural language.<p>You can:<p>- Generate schemas by simply describing them in plain English<p>- Brainstorm new tables, columns, and relationships with AI<p>- Iterate visually in a diagram (ERD)<p>- Deterministically export SQL script<p>Try it out here - <a href="https://chartdb.io/ai" rel="nofollow">https://chartdb.io/ai</a> - no signup required.<p>Or sign up and use it on your own database<p>Would love to get your feedback :)

Show HN: Autism Simulator
Hey all, I built this. It’s not trying to capture every autistic experience (that’d be impossible). It’s based on my own lived experience as well as that of friends on the spectrum.<p>I'm trying to give people a feel for what masking, decision fatigue, and burnout can look like day-to-day. That’s hard to explain in words, but easier to show through choices and stats. I'm not trying to "define autism".<p>I’ve gotten good feedback here about resilience, meds, and difficulty tuning. I’ll keep tweaking it. If even a few people walk away thinking, "ah, maybe that’s why my coworker struggles in those situations," then it’s worth it.<p>Appreciate everyone who’s tried it and shared thoughts.

Show HN: Peanut – A Modern Money App
Hi HN!
I’ve been frustrated with traditional payments for a while. Paypal has frozen my funds on two occasions; and in one of them the funds were never recoverable. When I’m not using PayPal, international bank transfers take days and charge me insane amounts.<p>Also, every country usually has their own payment app parallel to the banking system: Portugal, where i currently live, has MB WAY, Brazil has PIX, Argentina has Mercadopago, the US has Cashapp. None of these work with each other.<p>Money still feels like pre-dotcom era tech when it should feel like a whatsapp message: send instant, anywhere, and for free.<p>Me and my team have been building Peanut to make money feel like Whatsapp. Peanut is a payments app, like Cashapp, but it works in any country. On top of that, you do more than only instant Peanut to Peanut payments; Peanut works with Banks, Peanut works with apps like MercadoPago and Pix, and if they have none of that, Peanut also works with crypto.<p>We wanted to build Peanut the right way, and that’s why:<p>- We’re not published on any app store. Peanut is a Progressive Web App (<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_web_app" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_web_app</a>) (of which I sadly see way too few !!). This way we don’t have to bow to the Apple/Google tech cabal and can rely on open standards.
- The core of peanut is decentralized & non-custodial. The only one that has control of the funds is the user; as it should be. Peanut is not like a traditional bank, where fraud, political instability, or a bank-run might pwn you. Your funds are always yours and no one else can touch them.
- Your funds are secured by passkey. This is much harder to crack or extract than a password or pin, and you won’t get pwned if your seed phrase gets leaked. We think it’s a much better approach for consumers.
- Trust is crucial; all the app code is open-source at <a href="https://github.com/peanutprotocol/peanut-ui/tree/peanut-wallet" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/peanutprotocol/peanut-ui/tree/peanut-wall...</a>
- The app is completely free; we only passthrough banking costs. The way we intend to make money is off of merchants in the future. We believe Visa and Mastercard take a way too big of a chunk of payments, and we can be competitive with them.<p>My personal favorite feature that we’ve built: generate a send link, drop it in a chat with the person you’re talking with, and let them receive it in whatever option they want (no questions asked!).<p>We’re still in Beta, so I hope you can forgive any tech hiccups. We’re also rolling out country support on a week-by-week basis; by the end of October we should have full EU, US & LATAM banking coverage. But I wanted to launch Show HN early, because I respect this community a lot and have always loved getting feedback from it (and often giving my own!).<p>Also, let me know your username and I’m happy to send you a few $ to play around with the app.
