Discussion: Seedance-style AI video generation workflows
I recently came across a site called Seedance 2: https://seedance2.tech/
It seems to be exploring a different angle of AI video generation, focusing more on rhythm, motion, and visual continuity rather than long-form cinematic storytelling.
I’m curious what people here think about this direction in general: - Does a rhythm- or motion-focused approach to AI video feel genuinely useful? - How does this compare to current AI video tools in terms of control and expectations? - If you were to use an AI video generator, what kind of control would actually matter to you?
Not affiliated, just interested in discussing where AI video generation workflows might be heading.

Subtle thermal factors I didn't expect when testing high-power LEDs
I’ve been experimenting with high-power LEDs in open, non-commercial setups to better understand real-world thermal behavior outside finished products.
What stood out was how strongly non-electrical details affected stability: – mounting pressure – interface materials – real airflow paths versus assumed ones
Electrically everything stayed within ratings, but long-term thermal behavior varied more than expected.
For those who’ve worked with power-dense hardware: what thermal assumptions turned out to be wrong in practice?

Show HN: CPL – A categorical programming language that runs in the browser
CPL is a programming language based on category theory, originally designed by Tatsuya Hagino in his 1987 PhD thesis at the University of Edinburgh. It has no built-in data types — products, coproducts, natural numbers, and even exponentials (function space) are all defined by the user using F,G-dialgebras.
In this release, CPL now runs in your browser via WebAssembly with no installation required. I've also added tutorials in both English and Japanese.

Show HN: Tiles – yet another Emacs package for note-taking
In TILES, each note (or tile, if you will) is a single plaintext paragraph stored in its own .org file, organized through tags and bold keywords. TILES tries to keep it simple: there is no note title (to reduce friction when creating a note, and honestly a note title is not something I find very useful anyway), there are no dependencies (except for Emacs, version 27.1 at least), no links between notes, no backlinks, no graphs, and no database; every note is a paragraph in its own plaintext file.
Other notable features are: - a dashboard offering a quick glance and a preview of your notes; - note stitching (borrowed from Howm) and the possibility to get note content by using Dynamic Blocks in Org Mode (borrowed from Denote); - tags are mandatory and used for hierarchy; - keywords are optional and automatically extracted from bolded content inside the notes; - search is performed exclusively on tags and/or keywords; - subnotes (or undertiles, if you will), a kind of meta-content (or private content) inside a note, which is a paragraph prefixed with '&&' hidden everywhere except in expanded view in the dashboard and, of course, in the note editing buffer (it's not exported trough Dynamic Blocks actions, nor through stitching); - color coding in the dashboard, depending on the note's age.
