Show HN: Scripting language inspired by JavaScript and GLSL
I'm working on a scripting-language heavily inspired by Javascript and GLSL.
The idea is to use this for a game engine I'm working on.

Show HN: BingeTheTube: binge YouTube channels from oldest to latest
Briefly, what the app does:<p>1. Points to a reverse playlist(an actual youtube playlist) for a channel.<p>2. Ability to skip to a position in playlist from beginning.<p>3. Request any new channel you would like to have a reverse playlist for !<p>Usage eg:<p>- Using the above you can skip to say 100th video from begining in a channel
(e.g CaseeyNeistat Vlog) and keep watching on youtube app (without going back to bingethetube.com).<p>- Come back next day and resume watching from say video 120 without a lot of scrolling<p>Useful if you like to follow a creators youtube journey or old Vlogs !

Show HN: Pole Clock, a single 24h clock with multiple timezones
Hi HN! I designed this Pole Clock to be a helpful tool for people like myself who often struggle with managing their sense of time.<p>I found that analog clocks are generally easier to read and understand than digital ones, however I find the fact that every day is broken into two 12-hour rotations unintuitive. A single 24-hour rotation makes it easier to grasp where in the day you are, the bottom half representing night and the top half representing day.<p>Additionally, because the clock displays 24 hours, you can add extra hour hands on the clock for other time zones. This is especially useful if you work remotely or have friends and colleagues in different time zones. At a single glance, see where they are in their days and energy levels!<p>I hope you'll give the Pole Clock a try and find that it helps you better understand and manage your sense of time.

Show HN: Distilhn.com – Front-Page Articles Summarized with Machine Learning
Hey HN,
I've built a little website to show news articles with a summary so that I don't have to RTFA if I just want a rough sense of what it covers :) I also share the summaries in an RSS feed for those who'd prefer to use their own reader. Let me know what you think!

Show HN: RSS Brain
I wrote an RSS reader called RSS Brain recently. The motivate is the current RSS readers either don't sort articles by priority, which makes it hard to read posts from HackerNews and Reddit, or sort it with some "smart" algorithm which I don't trust. I also like the Google News feature that can show related story from different source, but the sources are not configurable and the algorithm is not transparent either. So with RSS Brain, I implemented these features:<p>* Recommend related articles from the feeds of your choice. It's backed by ElasticSearch and the algorithm is described on RSS Brain's website.<p>* Option to sort articles by upvotes and time. The algorithm is similar to the old Reddit and you can find it on the website as well.<p>* Save search terms into folders so you can filter the articles.<p>I've been using it for a while and found these features very helpful. So I want to share this on HackerNews. The frontend is written in Flutter so it has cross platform clients, even though the web version don't feel very "web native" because the level of Flutter web support. I guess only time can improve that.<p>I don't have enough hardware to scale it up so it's currently in subscription mode to limit the users. I'm going to open source the code (maybe non-commercial license) once I think it's ready so you can host it by yourself. It's still in early stage and haven't been tested by a lot of people. So any feedback is helpful. Thanks!<p>Update: Added a scroll down hint in the landing page. Thanks for the feedback.
