The full story
HN Watercooler turns any Hacker News thread into an audio conversation, with different voices for the people in the debate rather than one narrator reading a summary. The author asked Claude 3.7 to build it as a browser-only app: you give it a thread link and your own ElevenLabs key, which stays in your browser.
