Show HN: Yantra – an LALR(1) parser generator for C++
Yantra is a C++ parser generator: lexer, parser, and AST walker all generated from one tool. It builds the whole AST first, then walks it.Most LALR parser generators (Yacc, Bison, Lemon) run your semantic actions during parsing, as each rule reduces, bottom-up.That means at the time a rule's action runs, you don't yet know what its parent looks like. This pushes a lot of grammars toward hand-built AST classes and a separate walking pass whenever you need to look ahead into siblings or defer a decision until more context is available.On the other hand, Yantra always builds the whole AST first, then walks it top-down in a separate pass, calling your semantic actions as it goes. A parent rule's action can run before its children are visited.A single grammar can define more than one walker. For example, one that emits C++, another that emits Java, from the same parse. The AST and the walker classes are both generated for you.A small example (full version, with compile commands, in the README): start := expr; expr := expr(a) PLUS expr(b) %{ std::cout

Phones don’t have lights
Mark Zuckerberg has a new defense of the Ray-Ban Meta glasses: They're actually doing more to signal they're taking a photo than phones do. He's brought this up in at least two recent interviews, noting that the glasses have a light that comes on to signal when a photo is being taken, while phones do […]
These camera apps give you more control over the iPhone 18 Pro’s aperture
One of the questionable limitations of the iPhone 18 Pro's new main camera with a variable aperture is that you're limited to just four settings in the native iOS' camera app in manual mode: f/1.48, f/1.8, f/2.8, and f/4. Those same limitations are also in place when the app is adjusting the iris itself in […]

Show HN: Koi.rest – watch some fish and regain your balance
Hi there. My name is Paul. I’m a developer, an explorer and I’ve got ADHD. As of the beginning of August, I’m also unemployed.This last part, along with everything else this past year, has caused me a great deal of stress.While our balcony zen garden project is yet to be completed, I had an idea to create a virtual one that everyone can use.It's an idea that, unfortunately, I’ve been postponing for a while now, mostly because I have no fucking idea how to do it as I don’t know JavaScript, and I don't have the capacity to learn it right now.So I let perfect be the enemy of good and, well... just kept the idea to myself.Then I said "fuck it" and used AI to make the thing I really wanted to make.I realized I didn't want "perfect". I wanted "good enough".I tweaked, added, removed, drew, researched, questioned, tested... I just wasn't the one coding it.So now, instead of occupying my brain, it now lives on the internet for others to enjoy.Yes, there’s something noble about making something entirely on your own, but what good is an idea that just sits in my head?So here I am. I made the thing. The weird, little, quiet koi pond.The silly project of passion. The little corner of the internet to let strangers watch fish quietly, together.I hope this pond helps you as much as it helped me.
