Show HN: Nring.info – An overview of Nürburgring info that we were missing
2 by donkeyd | 0 comments on Hacker News.
When we wanted to visit the Nurburgring, my friend and I searched for a good source with all information about it in one spot. Things like the best spots to view cars driving the Nordschleife track, where to rent cars or book taxi laps and other info. Turns out there didn't seem to be one clear and up-to-date source for all of this information. Many web sites were either dated, unclear os sometimes down right wrong. So we created the website we were missing and are launching it today: http://nring.info Currently it contains an overview of all available ring taxis and rental companies, all the different corners, their locations and descriptions and some interesting or useful POIs all on a mobile friendly interactive map[0]. It is still a work in progress and we will be adding things like walking routes to great vantage points and more thorough explanations of the (financial) risks of driving the ring. One thing we were also missing was a way to view the track status online, since the official site doesn't seem to provide this. The only way to know whether the track is closed is to view a large sign near the entrance, which is very inconvenient when you're watching on the other side of the track and cars suddenly stop coming. There are Whatsapp groups that provide this info, but they're hard to find for a regular visitor. So we also solved this issue, by providing near real-time track status[1] info using OpenCV on their public webcam feed. The site was built using Strapi CMS and 11ty with the dynamic parts implemented through Netlify Cloud functions, Firebase and PHP. 0: https://ift.tt/Ux5T1q6 1: https://ift.tt/LRAw9cp

New Show Hacker News story: Show HN: Natural language Twitter search using Codex

Show HN: Natural language Twitter search using Codex 3 by andyk | 0 comments on Hacker News. We built a structured search engine for Twitter called Bird SQL, available at https://ift.tt/7BU0hHb . Our search interface uses OpenAI Codex to translate natural language to SQL. Our backend then verifies the SQL, executes it, and displays the results on the web app. This makes large structured datasets like a scrape of Twitter easy for anyone to explore. As background, while working on text-to-SQL as a general problem, we came to believe one of its most powerful applications is as a search tool because: - SQL is hard to write by hand and prone to errors - It allows you to iterate quickly if you’re exploring a new dataset - A lot of contextual information that you’d normally have to internalize (e.g. your data’s schema) can be automatically generated and offloaded to the language model Using large language models (LLMs) like Codex to write the SQL for you means you don’t have to worry about

New Show Hacker News story: Show HN: Movis – A Video Editing Library in Python

Show HN: Movis – A Video Editing Library in Python 2 by rezoolab | 0 comments on Hacker News. Originally, this library was created due to my motivation to make videos in Python. Of course, I considered other Python libraries, but I decided to create a new library for video editing because I needed the following features and also for study purposes: - The existence of composition. Especially, the ability to perform advanced video editing by inserting compositions within compositions. - The ability to add animations based on keyframes. - Effects like chroma key and drop shadow. - A caching mechanism to render the same frame quickly. - Various blending modes. These features, despite being standard in proprietary video editing software, were not present in previous Python libraries. Currently, I am using this library to automatically generate videos from raw materials. I would be grateful for any comments, thoughts, or requests.
