Hey HN,

  I built War Monitor (https://war-monitor.com), a platform that tracks conflicts and geopolitical events in real-time.                              
                                                                                                                                                     
  It ingests events from RSS feeds (BBC, Al Jazeera, Reuters) and Telegram OSINT channels, then uses AI (llama-3.3-70b via Groq) to classify each    
  event by category (war, terrorism, cyber, protest, disaster, diplomacy, economic), assign a 1-10 severity score, and generate a summary. Related   
  events are automatically grouped into conflict threads so you can follow how situations evolve.                                                  
                                                                                                                                                     
  Everything is plotted on an interactive 3D globe (Three.js) with real-time updates via WebSockets.                                               
                                                                                                                                                     
  Stack: React, Three.js/R3F for the globe, Fastify, PostgreSQL + PostGIS, Redis, Prisma, Socket.IO, Docker. Monorepo with npm workspaces. AI
  classification runs through an OpenAI-compatible API pointed at Groq.
