Every month the "Who Wants to Be Hired?" and "Who's Hiring?" Threads come through I would think to myself, "there should be a match maker for these two threads".
So I had abacus.ai whip one up. The methodology is pretty simple, data is extracted from posts using an LLM, score matches based on salary, domain experience, remote/onsite, etc., and then eliminate incompatible postings, like 'looking for remote work' and 'onsite only'. The result is two views: jobs-by-user and user-by-jobs.
If you've submitted a post to this month's 'Who Wants to Be Hired?", you can find your matching job listings at https://hnmatchmaker.com/user/:user_name, for example https://hnmatchmaker.com/user/G4Vi

Some observations when looking at the matches pair up right now:
Poke around, let me know what you think!
Ultimately, I hope this is actually helpful to some folks.
I started working on Nori while doing robotics research at Columbia. I was teaching robots through human demonstrations, but getting my hands on affordable hardware was difficult. Most labs have one or two expensive robots, which makes it hard to collect large datasets, run long experiments, or test across several robots.
So I built my own. After seven iterations the latest Nori has:
* 19 degrees of freedom
* Two 7+1 DOF arms with a 1.5 kg payload per arm
* A 55 kg telescoping lift
* A differential wheeled base
* Four 720p, 30 fps RGB cameras
* 2D lidar
* A dual microphone array with full-duplex voice communication
* A 432 Wh battery
* A Raspberry Pi 5 with 4 GB RAM (SLAM and safeties are run on board, heavier ACT and VLAs must be run from a computer via LAN or a server via WAN)
Getting this under $2,000 was the main engineering challenge. Nori has more than 100 moving and structural parts, so costs add up quickly across actuators, bearings, wiring, power delivery, and assembly. Some main choices we made to get the cost low was using high-ratio servos instead of QDD motors, and using a wheel base instead of legs.
We assemble each robot in San Francisco and have designed it to be easy to manufacture and repair (we offer 3D files to print repairs).
Our open SDK includes teleoperation and demonstration tools: https://github.com/Nori-Robotics/nori-sdk-py
We also built a browser-based simulator so you can try it out: https://lab.norirobotics.com/nori/model
We’ve shipped our first robot and are building the next batch. Eventually, we want people without robotics experience to teach Nori tasks and share them with other owners.
Currently the hardware is already capable of basic cleaning tasks, opening drawers, restocking shelves and pouring beers. Here is a video of Nori doing things: https://youtube.com/shorts/VRfVXHfQvD8
We make money by selling the hardware for $1,688, with optional paid software on top. Parts of hardware are open source. More details are in our hardware paper: https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2605.16537
If you work in robotics, what would you build with a robot at this price? What would you change about the hardware?
I’m a co-founder of Quill, a fullstack SDK for adding customer-facing analytics & data features to your app. Backed by YCombinator & top-tier SV-based investors (fundraising not publicly disclosed; happy to share any details when we chat).
Some examples of how customers get value from Quill: • pre-IPO fintech adds custom reporting & data export features to their money movement product. • Series B healthtech is now able to deliver completely custom in-product reports & dashboards to every enterprise customer they onboard. • Series A govtech adds analytics and reporting capabilities within their existing agent/chat product.
Reasons you’d love working with us: • Work with a small, focused, talented team on a highly technical product (by developers for developers). • Funded company in a big market, but still prelaunch with a team size <5 • High level of product ownership with tight feedback loops: the products you build are shipped quickly and get used by real customers immediately. Our latest hire built our entire CLI product from 0 -> 1, and it was used in production by customers the day it shipped.
We are growing the team to keep up with demand for new features that our customers are asking us for, while also preparing for launch. We're looking for someone that will make us better. We’re just getting started, and want you to bring your opinions, expertise, and experience to the table (not just execute on the ideas we already have).

My son spent a lot of time in 5th grade playing with the 2-dimensional PhET gravity/space sims[1]. His STEM class uses it, and he was playing with it at home, and has been looking for more. I found several space sims/playgrounds online, including NASA's Eyes on the Solar System[2], but nothing that seemed to offer a real progression from what he was getting out of the PhET sims, so I built Newton's Orchard over the summer for him.

It features deterministic time scrubbing, all bodies are editable, different preset systems and experiments, missions to complete (complete 3 to unlock the blackhole object type and mission), and a gallery for user submissions.
I would very much appreciate feedback from HN - particularly from the lens of making it engaging and illuminating for students, and anyone that would like to just get a feel for how gravity works. Thank you!

It ships with auto-mode, which makes a good tradeoff between memory usage and speed. I'll be implementing and porting the MTP module for speculative decoding next
