I'm a self-taught developer and researcher who left school at 16, and I've spent some time exploring a first-principles approach to system design for various frontier problems. In this case it's AI that challenges the 'bigger is better' transformer paradigm.

Lingo is the first piece of that research, a high-performance linguistic database designed to run on-device.

The full technical overview and manifesto is here: https://medium.com/@robm.antunes/bcd1e9752af6

The paper has been archived on Zenodo with a DOI: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17196613

The code is open-source and can be found at https://github.com/RobAntunes/lingodb, it's currently broken and feature incomplete but I'm working on it - just wanted to start getting some feedback.

All benchmarks are reproducible from the repo and can also be found in the various texts.

As an independent without academic affiliation, I'd be incredibly grateful for your feedback! I'm here to answer any questions.

Cheers!17:T572,Hi HN,

We are building a GUI-based API generator for PostgreSQL that turns your database into a production-ready REST API in minutes.

Why we built it:

Every project starts with Postgres, but getting an API layer in front of it means writing boilerplate or learning GraphQL.

Hasura, Supabase, PostgREST are great — but many devs (including us) just want simple, reliable REST APIs which work with existing databases.

We want
