The Gentle Singularity
We are past the event horizon; the takeoff has started. Humanity is close to building digital superintelligence, and at least so far it’s much less weird than it seems like it should be.

The librarian immediately attempts to sell you a vuvuzela
Imagine entering the biggest library in the world. You peer down an incredibly long aisle with wooden bookshelves brimming with books. You can see multiple such corridors, all lit with a comfortable warm light. There’s a rich smell of old paper. You can hear…

Show HN: A “Course” as an MCP Server (Score: 150+ in 14 hours)

Comments: https://readhacker.news/c/6vVxu
We wanted to build a course for new Mastra devs to get started quickly. However, we knew videos would go out of date and be more difficult to maintain.
We decided to launch our "course" as an MCP server. This way your coding agent actually teaches the course content to you and can help you write the code. We think this is a really interactive way to learn.
Using an editor with MCP support (such as Cursor, Windsurf, or VSCode), your code agent will call the appropriate MCP tools which will return context for the agent. This context tries to instruct the agent that it should be teaching you the content, not just doing the work for you.
The course is still pretty experimental and some models work better than others. Code is available in the Mastra Github repo in the mcp-docs-server package (https://github.com/mastra-ai/mastra/tree/main/packages/mcp-d...)

Hi HN,
In the past ~8 months, I have been working on a side project that helps me plan my travels. While most months saw no or little progress, in the past ~3 months I have been adding tons of features to support my next big trip later this year.
I've written in my blog on the feature set [1] but in short they are:
- Timetable view of activities, accommodations, and day plans
- List view and map view of them
- Commenting on them
- Expense tracker
- Sharing and collaboration with friends
The source code is also available on GitHub [2]
This is an example of a view-only trip: [3]
So far, I think I'm satisfied with the features and is progressing really well in my travel planning.
Let me know what you think! Thanks!

RomM is a self-hosted app that allows you to manage your retro game files (ROMs) and play them in the browser.
Think of it as Plex or Jellyfin for your ROM library: it automatically fetches metadata, artwork, and game information from online metadata sources to transform your folders into a browsable collection.
You can play games directly in the browser for consoles like the N64, Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS, and PlayStation 1, using the integrated web emulator (https://emulatorjs.org/). Members of the community have released integrations for Playnite (Windows), muOS (Anbernic handhelds) and Decky Loader (Steam Deck), with many more in the works.
The team has been working on RomM for just over two years now, and we're incredibly proud of what we've built so far. There's no company behind the project, just a bunch of friends building something together that we've wanted for a long time. And of course, the code is open-source and AGPLv3 licensed.
Check out the (kinda slow) demo running on an ultra-cheap VPS: https://demo.romm.app/
