Show HN: I made a Gemma 4 Mac app that names screenshots with local AI

Sat, 05/30/2026 - 9:40pm

I made my first macOS utility app that ships with a bundled Gemma 4 model, specifically the Gemma E4B one. It made my app DMG have 5.3 GB in size, but I think it is a small size for the power that this free local model can provide.

It runs fine on CPU, but can also run on Apple Silicon GPU, although I did not notice any performance improvements with GPU (tested on a M5 chip).

I think these local lightweight and multimodal models will open multiple possibilities for new software tools where privacy is essential.

Anyone seen a CC- serial prefix on legacy networking hardware?

Sat, 05/30/2026 - 9:01pm

don't want to file a decom report with a gap so I figured I would ask here.

On a contract job clearing out a data center doing routine stuff like taking inventory and audits before we decommission hardware. The issue is there is one node that keeps coming back that isn't in the documentation. ip is in the 46.28.x.x range Its not in the facilities registry though. Ran it through RIPE and ARIN to find nothing.

The latency is what is getting me though. 0.4 round trip every time. Tested from multiple machines including a phone on LTE to get the same response time. That should theoretically mean I am right next to the machine which doesn't make sense across three different connections.

Checked the physical hardware and it's nothing I've ever seen before. Not standard 1U or 2U ports maybe proprietary. serial format is:

CC-[4 digits]-[2 digits]-[6 alphanumeric]

CC prefix doesn't math Cisco, Ibm, Dec, 3com or anything. went back through the facility's historical logs. node appears in their earliest available records, which go back to 1994. facility was built in 1997.

has anyone seen a CC- serial prefix before? or have an explanation for the latency consistency?

Ask HN: Books for someone who is transitioning from FAANG to finance

Sat, 05/30/2026 - 8:57pm

I have been an AI engineer for the last 10 years of my life, and have continued to build small algo-trading systems during my weekends.

I'm getting into finance full time and starting to build a product in the net worth tracking / agentic finance / LLM driven investing space (B2C)

I would love to read up on as many books as I can just to deeply understand the field, the way things run, etc.

Recommendations? Doesn't have to be just books. Would also appreciate any advice.
