Show HN: Phone Link for macOS – Use Your Android Phone on macOS

English isn’t my first language, sorry for grammar mistakes.I usually use Windows and Android, and these two platforms can be linked via Microsoft's "Link to Windows", or "Phone Link" program. So, you can easily use some features such as notifications, messages, screen mirroring, and clipboard synchronization on Windows from your Android phone.Recently, I changed my personal computer to macOS from Windows, and it made me need a similar program. I developed this program to run on macOS while still using the "Link to Windows" app on Android phone.It supports most features of the Windows client (notifications, messages, photos, mirroring, file transfer, etc.), except calling.The license is MIT. This project is an unofficial client unrelated to Microsoft and has no affiliation with them. Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50389540 Points: 1 # Comments: 0

Show HN: Umbel – Remote-control agent CLIs over tmux

Been using this in all my sessions the last months. Opus 5.5 (over MCP) spawns Deepseek flash agents - and codex for audits etc. Very curious to hear what the HN crowd thinks/makes of it. Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50383189 Points: 1 # Comments: 0

A Closer Look at Phonon TTS. Launching High-Quality On-Device Speech That Tops the Benchmarks.

Phonon, a small text-to-speech model that runs entirely on the user's device without requiring internet access, has been released with support for English, French, German, Spanish, and Portuguese. Built on the Pocket TTS lineage using flow matching, Phonon achieves high-quality audio in compact sizes (65 MB and 75 MB), with the 31m version licensed under Apache 2.0 for commercial use. It excels in intelligibility and speed, ranking first in German and Spanish on Hugging Face's Open TTS Leaderboard and leading in CPU streaming benchmarks. The model supports voice cloning, custom voices via Gradium Studio, and integrates with Hugging Face Transformers. It is available in multiple formats and backends, including WebAssembly, GPU, and NPU, enabling deployment across phones, laptops, single-board computers, and browsers. Over 200,000 downloads were recorded in its first two weeks, with active developer adoption through tools like ExecuTorch, Micdrop, and Spaces. Future developments include support for additional languages, smaller models, and custom vocabulary fine-tuning.

The llama.cpp release b12116 introduces support for the drama-3 text-to-speech model, includes cleanup improvements, and ensures the drama3 helper stops at the codebook tower limit. This update provides binaries for multiple platforms including macOS, Linux, Windows, Android, and iOS, with support for various backends such as CUDA, Vulkan, ROCm, OpenVINO, and SYCL. Some builds remain disabled or require additional setup.

The update enhances OpenCL performance for decode operations by optimizing workgroup usage for q4_K gate up and GLU, and adds support for Flash Attention (FA) in various configurations including GQA 2, 6, and 16 with different head sizes, improving efficiency on specific hardware setups.

llama.cpp releases

b12121

A fix was implemented in llama.cpp to correct the calculation of on-device sequence state copy sizes for quantized key-value (KV) caches, ensuring accurate copying of data blocks and preventing crashes or incorrect state restoration. The update adjusts the element count computation using proper block size handling and removes redundant code elements.

b12122

The update introduces optimizations for CUDA by fusing NVFP4 gate/up operations and GLU within MMQ, honoring requested precision in fused gate/up MMQ, sharing scale checks for NVFP4, skipping unused FP4 kernels, testing with W4A8 configurations without scales and with batching, and adding checks for gate_scale before loading fused NVFP4 gate scale.

llama.cpp releases

b12123

The update introduces DSV4_HC_PRE and DSV4_HC_POST support for OpenCL, along with improvements to dsv4_hc_post functionality, enhancing performance and compatibility across various platforms including macOS, Linux, Windows, Android, and embedded systems.

llama.cpp releases

b12124

The release includes support for non-contiguous sigmoid operations in OpenCL, enhancing compatibility and performance across various hardware platforms. This update is part of a broader set of improvements and new binary distributions for multiple operating systems and backends, including macOS, Linux, Windows, Android, and openEuler, with support for CUDA, Vulkan, ROCm, OpenVINO, SYCL, and other accelerators.

The fix addresses intermittent CI failures in TOPK_MOE tests caused by near ties in logits, particularly with uniform random inputs and narrow-range gating functions like sqrt_softplus. The solution involves redrawing logits until group selection and top-k decisions have a relative margin of 1e-4 in double precision, and constructing logits by inverting the gating function using a grid-based approach to ensure consistent expert selection across backends.
