Show HN: I made a software that simplifies horizontal scaling and makes it EASY

Sat, 04/12/2025 - 7:12am

Quantum Grid is an open-source software I started that allows you to synchronize your computer's computational power, even if the devices are overseas.

Imagine you and your friends want to train an AI, but you live far away from each other. Quantum Grid solves that problem by allowing you to receive data from a server and process it in parallel with the other devices. The processed data is then returned back to the server.

It's the first software that allows you to do parallel processing from a non-relational database (MongoDB currently!)

The tech stack I used was: •Programming Languages: TypeScript •Frameworks: Express.js, Electron and Next.js •Databases: MongoDB, SQLite and JSON files •Libraries: React, ShadCN, TailwindCSS and Mongoose •IDE: Visual Studio Code and Cursor

Rant: Don't add a 'feature' flair with a karma barrier to your subreddit

Sat, 04/12/2025 - 6:38am

Reddit's karma requirements create a catch-22 for casual users trying to contribute meaningful feedback. I recently tried to suggest a feature in r/ClaudeAI, only to have my post automatically removed due to insufficient karma.

This is a superbly frustrating experience:

1. You find a tool you actually like enough to suggest improvements 2. You spend to write up a feature request 3. Your post gets instantly deleted because you don't participate in that specific community 4. You're left without a clear alternative path to provide feedback

For subs about built around products, this makes zero sense and is counterproductive. The people who run into issues or have ideas to make things better are EXACTLY who they should want to hear from.
