• Show HN: Binance futures order book history from 3 nodes, with a public gap log · score 5.7

  CandleFeed provides historical Binance USD-M futures order book (L2) and tick trade data by merging WebSocket captures from three independent nodes with strict chain-continuity checks. It publishes a public gap log documenting any missing data, offering transparency that is rare in market data services. This is useful for backtesting and research where data integrity is critical.

• Show HN: Markov Chains for Programmers – free book (2nd ed.) with C code · score 5.3

  This project is a free book, 'Markov Chains for Programmers,' accompanied by C code, MATLAB scripts, and PRISM models for hands-on learning of Markov chains. It offers a practical, code-centric approach to performance evaluation and probabilistic modeling, making theoretical concepts accessible to programmers.

• Show HN: A coloring book where your drawings come alive and walks into a world · score 5.3

  Live Coloring Book is a web-based interactive experience where users color drawings that then come alive and move within a shared world alongside others' creations. The concept blends creativity with animation in a novel way, though the technical depth and documentation are limited based on the provided information.

• Show HN: This hotel is hella AI-ready. Book directly from AI without MCPs · score 4.3

  This project appears to be a demo or product by Cadent Studio that enables AI agents to read a hotel's live pricing and availability and generate booking links directly from the open web, without using MCPs or connectors. It's interesting as a proof-of-concept for agentic web interactions in the travel booking space, but the submission lacks substantive technical detail or documentation.
