The score comes from our model.

• Show HN: Cooja-NG – IoT network emulator running real firmware in the browser · score 8.0

  Cooja-NG is a clean-room C re-implementation of the Cooja/MSPSim IoT network emulator, supporting multiple architectures (MSP430, ARM Cortex-M, RISC-V) with cycle-accurate simulation and browser-based visualization via WebAssembly. It passes the full Contiki-NG test suite and offers deterministic, high-speed headless CI testing for embedded wireless networks, making it a practical replacement for the Java-based Cooja.

• Show HN: Chrome Relay – background tabs in your real Chrome for coding agents · score 7.8

  Chrome Relay lets coding agents control your everyday Chrome browser through background tabs, using your real logins without interrupting your workflow. It combines a Go relay service, a Chrome extension, and optional 1Password integration to enable secure, audited browser automation for AI agents. The project stands out for its focus on safety (approvals, audit trails) and efficiency (one-command goals).

• Show HN: Armite - a local Azure emulator with a real identity plane and RBAC · score 7.5

  Armite is a local Azure emulator that focuses on providing a realistic identity and RBAC plane, allowing developers to test authorization logic offline. It mints and verifies tokens, evaluates role assignments on both management and data planes, and supports services like Key Vault and Storage with proper RBAC enforcement. This fills a gap in local Azure development by making authorization failures reproducible on a laptop or in CI.

• Show HN: Drama 3 (35B TTS) speaking Turkish at 2.7x real time on one 16GB GPU · score 7.3

  This project adapts Fish Audio Drama 3, a 35B parameter text-to-speech model, to speak Turkish on a single 16 GB GPU. It achieves 2.7x real-time performance through expert distillation, hot-expert caching, disk streaming, and CUDA graph optimizations, with detailed benchmarks and an emotion intensity control via activation steering.
