Many of us appreciate tools that save us time or money in our businesses. But there are also projects out there with a bigger mission (improving lives, supporting the planet, and helping those in need, to name a few).
Do you know of any inspiring projects that aim to make the world a better place?
@Apple just announced the new macOS Tahoe 26, which included the "biggest Spotlight update ever." From the outside, it feels like they essentially built Raycast into Spotlight.
Raycast's CEO, @thomaspaulmann reacted in a long-form X post. This quote really struck me:
While Apple catches up to 2019 Raycast, we're already shipping 2025 Raycast.
Hey fellow Chyridians (yeah, we just decided that this is a term now),
after our launch here on product hunt last week, we gained more users than we could have imagined. So first of all, thanks a lot for that!
Along with our users came a lot of feedback and ideas for new features that we should add, one of them being embedded code-blocks and that is what we went for first! We are excited to announce that as of today, you can use the new Source Code block! This block will allow you to paste your code as well as select the programming language to allow for proper syntax highlighting when being rendered in the finished manual.
Pocket is shutting down - by now, we all know that. I wasn t a regular user myself, but I did test the app about a year ago.
From what I m seeing in the comments, long-time users are understandably panicking. There are plenty of alternatives out there, but it seems like people are struggling to find something they can easily switch to.
So I m curious - how did you use Pocket?
And have you found a replacement that actually works for you?
When it comes down to hardware my X feed is filled with two types of designs.
Retro/nostalgic 2000's hardware that was defined by Gameboy translucent purples, Colorful macs, Sony's beautiful eclectic electronics, and embracing colors that pop like pink, purple, and orange.
Sleek, modern, simple designs like the @Humane AI pin, @Limitless, @Friend, or the @omi.
I personally miss the fun days where consumer tech was wacky. Think Tamagotchi, Mini Clips, PSPs, and clear-shelled devices. I do see some like @Burner that have brought back some fun design but I'm curious... what does everyone think? Should we bring back the weird or embrace the sleek, simple, and modern?
The AI landscape keeps shifting fast, and Mistral AI s recent moves remind us that innovation rarely comes from just one giant. It s fascinating to see a new player emerge with fresh approaches to open-weight models and decentralized R&D challenging the idea that AI progress must be owned by a few massive companies.
This raises a bigger question:
Are we heading toward a more collaborative and open AI ecosystem, or will the big players always dominate the narrative?
Mistral s approach hints at a future where competition sparks creativity, but also where transparency and open research might unlock new breakthroughs faster. For builders and researchers alike, this is both exciting and a bit daunting.
