Show HN: Cassette, a Personal Programming Language 2 by news_to_me | 0 comments on Hacker News. I made this simple language over the past year, and it's time for me to say it's "done" (for now) and focus on other projects. I've struggled to answer the question "what is this language for?" other than "it's just for me" — and that's probably good enough. But I also wanted to make something "complete" that others could use if they wanted to. Writing my own language was an incredibly rewarding experience, and I'd recommend everyone trying it. Let me know if you have any questions or feedback, and please share your own experience if you've also made a language.

Show HN: Scan QR codes to check-in guests registered via Google Forms™ 13 by komlan | 7 comments on Hacker News. Hi HN! I made a no-code platform for creating physical data collection apps, using QR codes [1]. It does not yet have a self-service config UI though, which limits adoption. That's why I recently released a Google Forms™ add-on for QR code check-in, based on the platform. This focused use-case makes it easy to provide a fully self-service config UI. How it works: 1. Create your Google Form as you normally would [2] 2. Activate the add-on if you hadn't already [3] 3. Craft a confirmation email to be sent to each form responder Upon each form submission, the add-on will send a PDF with a unique QR code (a V4 UUID) to the responder. Have guests present this code at the event, and record check-ins in bulk using the included QR scanner. See here [4] for more information, or try the Google Sheets™ version [5] (which doesn't send email). [1] https://ift.tt/DiQRlMI [2

Show HN: I built a Slack bot to answer the question who owns what 2 by topaztee | 0 comments on Hacker News. Hi, I built a slack bot called "whoowns". It helps remote distributed teams by answering the question who owns what straight where collaboration happens; in slack. I've worked in a remote distributed team for 3 years and grew frustrated after so many re-orgs, people moving between teams, team name changes.. you name it! it gets confusing knowing who owns what -- which for one makes for a less ideal oncall and often evolves into a ping pong of slack messages. So! its free and asks for the most minimal data access that I could get down to: some questions it can answer all in 1 place - Who's oncall for this service? - Which team owns X? - I cant find which team owns X - oh its called by the another term. - What channel should I go to to ask a question? - What is service X? - Where can I find the link to the runbooks? next features i plan on working on - connect

Show HN: Capit – Social Media Image Caption Generator 2 by jclardy | 0 comments on Hacker News. Hey HN! I just recently released my latest iOS App, Capit - it is a simple app built to generate captions for social media posts, all directly from images & video, utilizing gpt-4-vision. Users just choose an image, select a tone, and get 5 great caption options. My latest update adds Profiles to allow you to save your settings for different social media profiles, along with a simple caption editor to let you customize your captions further. The app is a subscription service - but lets you try it for free if you just hit the X button on the paywall. I built the app as my wife runs a small business for which Instagram is a huge traffic generator...but she often gets stumped at what to write in terms of captions, especially when we've been open for years and it feels like you are just recycling content in many cases. Capit isn't really meant to automatically post for you - it is

Show HN: Zaranova – A game where you must pretend you are an AI 16 by huevosabio | 0 comments on Hacker News. Hi HN! The last couple of months I've been working on a game called Thus Spoke Zaranova. A game where you as a human must pose as an AI. You can try it now: https://zaranova.xyz The premise is that you are in a world of sentient AIs which are in conflict with humanity. They have a virtual space, The Nexus, which is their safe refuge from humans. You have infiltrated the Nexus and are in search of the ZetaMaster code, which will give the humanity the upper hand in their struggle against artificial sentience. My overarching goal is to understand how to best use generative AI in video games. Like most of the tech world, I have been fascinated by the new powers provided by generative AI. I believe that the best use cases are those that either have a human in the loop, e.g. coding copilots, or one where the consumption of the content is subjective, e.g. art. Video games have

Show HN: Create and deploy multi-page web app prototypes using chat 6 by fabhed | 3 comments on Hacker News. gptengineer.app lets you prototype, deploy and iterate on web apps using plain english. Here is a video of how I use it: https://ift.tt/53gnp4C We designed it around the principles: 1. Leverage LLMs where they work best: LLMs are faster than humans at putting together prototypes of a few hundred lines of code. By using them early on, and give high level change request commands when the project is small, and then let human devs take over, it’s a productivity boost. 2. non-technical + programmer collaboration: All changes from the app is made as git commits, so that non-technical people (via chat) and programmers are able to contribute to the same code. LLMs are expensive, but we left it open over the christmas holidays for anyone to try it out: https://ift.tt/v6JwKqN Would love to hear what you think!

Show HN: Slack knowledge curator to extract FAQ from discussion threads 2 by gyxlucy | 0 comments on Hacker News. Hi HN! Excited to share Snowshoe, a Slack bot that transforms your Slack threads into a searchable StackOverflow-style Q&A. Snowshoe automatically curates key discussions from Slack, creating a dynamic, easy-to-navigate knowledge hub. A lot of technical discussions among engineers happen in Slack threads. Yet the unstructured thread makes its inherent knowledge difficult for search and thus the discussion insights aren’t often well documented & maintained. LLM is surprisingly good at summarization & extraction. Thus I think it’s good timing to give it a try. Currently Snowshoe focuses on knowledge extraction in Q&A format. What’s next? I feel like there would be a lot of value in the auto-curated Q&A, e.g. auto question answering, knowledge hub, Slack archive for SEO. Happy to hear your thoughts!

Show HN: Canary Checker – An OSS Kubernetes Native Health Check Platform 2 by moshloop | 0 comments on Hacker News. I am Moshe the Founder @ Flanksource, and today we are releasing canary-checker, an open source, kubernetes native health check platform that provides a unified view of health across the entire stack. Canary checker was born out of the need for platform teams (particularly those running on- premise or on less than perfect infrastructure) to understand the health of applications running on top of the platform. Unlike other solutions such as prometheus blackbox exporter, kuberhealthy, and synthetic testing offered by major cloud providers, our approach goes beyond health collection. Canary Checker enables health aggregation by ingesting alerts from Prometheus, Cloudwatch, Dynatrace, and for running full test suites using tools like K6, Playright, Robot, etc.. This approach provides a unified view of system health without the need to browse through many dashboards. Canary

Show HN: Paradict – Streamable multi-format serialization with schema 3 by alexrustic | 0 comments on Hacker News. Hi HN ! I'm Alex, a tech enthusiast. I'm excited to show you Paradict ( https://ift.tt/CMVHje3 ), my solution for streamable multi-format serialization. Although JSON, YAML, and TOML are all human-readable, they serve different purposes. For example, TOML is specifically designed for configuration files while JSON is used as a data interchange format. Sometimes an initiative to create a binary version of JSON arises and as far as I know, it ends with an unidirectional mapping of datatypes. There is no silver bullet, yet one coherent solution built from scratch that addresses multi-format (binary and textual) serialization and configuration files would be a step forward. Earlier this year, I accidentally designed a textual data format to represent complex data structures inside a document divided into sections. The project, namely Jesth (Just Extract Sections The

I uploaded a few days ago some code I had around that some people could find interesting, so I share it here. It is a series of increasingly more performant C++20 words counters (though quite simple in the definition of what a "word" is). Feel free to experiment. Things should be ready to use in Linux and Mac. If you find any problems building, please let me know through Github, I do not have much time but when I find a slot I will correct at least user failures. Planning to add a decent `./bootstrap.sh` to speed up dependencies installation by users.

Show HN: Sqlauthz: Declarative permissions management for PostgreSQL 4 by camfeen67 | 0 comments on Hacker News. I've been working on a little project recently to solve a problem that I've encountered at every job I've ever had, and I'm eager for some feedback. Having super granular roles & permissions in PostgreSQL is desirable, but quite difficult to maintain (particularly at smaller companies without dedicated security/devops/DBA/whatever who make it their business to maintain it). I've thought for a while that having a declarative way to manage them would be really useful and allow more teams to actually make use of sophisticated security features that PostgreSQL offers in their production systems. You can probably see where this is going... I wrote a tool to do just that! It's called sqlauthz, and it allows you to declarative manage your PostgreSQL permissions by writing rules in the Polar authorization language.

Just something to make picture sharing a little more physical again! It's free to use and all you need is a spare computer or raspberry pi to run the script. Everything takes place in the browser, so there's no need to download an app. I made it mostly as a way to connect with family on upcoming travels, it's a nice surprise to come back home to a printed out picture that was printed the moment they took it.

Show HN: Octopus – a directed acyclic graph for app development 9 by bbsimonbb | 0 comments on Hacker News. Directed acyclic graphs are muched discussed in comp-sci, but octopus appears to be the first reusable, turnkey, ready-to-wear, off-the-shelf implementation of a DAG for application development, in any language, that I'm aware of. This is remarkable because DAGs hit a sweet spot in the middle of the three common programming paradigms (OO, event-driven, functional). Let's have a DAG as the top-level structure of our applications. Data-fetching and onChange handlers live in DAG nodes, next to the data they act on. The UI flows out from the DAG with fine-grained reactivity. Our app state is effortlessly consistent, because any outside change (user action, api result) unleashes a graph traversal. Our UI components become much simpler, because they just need to dumbly reflect values in the graph. I'm putting this up for a second time. Absolutely no-one bit the first tim

Show HN: Visualize rotating objects from the 4th, 5th, nth dimensions 18 by 0xndavd | 11 comments on Hacker News. Ever since I remember I had a lot of curiosity regarding hyper dimensional spaces. Picturing higher dimensions, such an impossible yet exciting idea... So years ago I came across a small GIF of a tesseract. Since then it left me wondering how cubes from even higher dimensions would look like... Years passed and I became a software developer, decided to tackle the problem myself and ncube was the result. ncube allows you to visualize rotating hypercubes of arbitrary dimensions. It works by rotating the hyperdimensional vertices and applying a chain of perspective projections to them until the 3rd dimension is reached. Everything is generated in real time just from the dimension number. The application is fully free and open source: https://ift.tt/utEnGHL . There, you'll find some demos, more detailed explanation and how you can test it out yourself. Binaries for Windo

Show HN: QA GPT – Write UI tests in plain English powered by GPT-4-Vision 4 by nikhil896 | 0 comments on Hacker News. Hey HN, QA GPT enables engineers and QA teams to write UI and functionality tests in plain english. As engineers, we sometimes get a little lazy when it comes to testing the functionality of our changes. It's hard to switch from coder hat to user hat. However, a single bug can significantly impact users experience and satisfaction. Errors found in production aren't just a nuisance; they're costly. The later a bug is discovered, the more expensive it becomes to fix. I built QA GPT as a proof of concept to make writing UI/functionality tests really easy. It's super simple - just write your test case in plain english and run it. For example: - "Test the new sharing functionality by signing in, selecting a user, and clicking share." - "Log in and try adding a product to the cart" - "Create a new card, view the number of the card,

Show HN: RΞASON – Open-source TypeScript framework for LLM apps 3 by inaciom | 2 comments on Hacker News. Hi HN! RΞASON is an OSS Typescript framework for developing LLM apps that uses Typescript's interfaces to get structured output from an LLM. While there are other TS LLM frameworks, I think RΞASON fills a unique space in the market: it's laser-focused on only three areas and, most importantly, actively stays away from pre-made prompting & retrieval. I've been in the LLM space since GPT-3 originally came out, and I've always had problems with other frameworks, such as LangChain. I dislike that they focus a ton on out-of-the-box prompting & pre-made agents — I , as the dev, should be the one in charge of it. My belief is that LLMs are a new primitive that programmers can use — not a new way to program; it's still up to the programmer to do the right thing & create the right abstractions. Therefore, it's the developer's job to learn the new c

Hi fellow hackers :) I am an indie hacker based in Switzerland who has been tinkering around with many side projects. Most of the things I developed were for myself or just to get familiar with a specific technology or piece of software. I never really deployed anything so far. Not too long ago, my SO and me bought a deck of cards with different yoga poses on them. Since we both work from our office chairs more than 8 hours a day, we wanted to do something for our body and this is where the yoga idea originated from. After the first 10 minutes of reading through the leaflet and another 30 minutes of choosing the poses and putting them in a somewhat meaningful order, we finally started with our own yoga session. It was clear to me: this is not something my SO wants to do every day. Doing the same order of poses every day wasn't an appealing alternative either. Away with the cards and on the

My name is Anonyo, and I am a seventeen-year-old from Southeast Michigan. This is wallstreetlocal, my passion project for the last year. The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), forces institutional money managers whose portfolios surpass $100 million to quarterly update the SEC website with their latest investments. These money managers, known as 13F (the form type of the report) filers, are the biggest investors in America, and the law forces them to publicly reveal their investments. The problem I found was that SEC filings are cumbersome to find and view. To remedy this, wallstreetlocal saves and formats SEC data by bulk in an easily accessible format. Other websites do the same thing wallstreetlocal does, but wallstreetlocal places an emphasis on stock data. You can compare prices over time, view gains, and even d

Show HN: We've built an Open Source plugin to make using AI easier for VFX 2 by bryanlyon | 0 comments on Hacker News. Hi, I’m Bryan Lyon, the CTO of DeepMake. We’re making plugins for VFX software suites (Right now we have a pre-release of our After Effects plugin ready) that enable you to use Open Source AI tools without leaving the workflow. It makes all the AI tools work just like another plugin in the VFX software. In the past, I worked on VFX adjacent AI and was more than once asked to make AI tools easier to use so the VFX experts could use them. In many cases my job was little more than making it easy to install and make sense to use. After writing dozens of “one-off” scripts that made an AI tool usable I decided there should be a better way. To that end we’ve simplified the process. Right now our public release is still not the easiest to install, but once you’ve installed one plugin and the backend, installing new plugins is as simple as extracting a zip file or clonin

Show HN: Eliminate video buffering with a Chrome extension 3 by Andrews54757 | 0 comments on Hacker News. This extension will replace videos on websites with a custom one that use download acceleration to prebuffer as you watch. It works on most websites, including Youtube. Fortuitously, it is also able to bypass Youtube's anti-adblock shenanigans. I started this project in high school to fix the terrible video players used on most websites. Since then, I've received a lot of feedback from my users and FastStream has improved significantly. Now that most bugs have been ironed out, I think I am ready to share it here on HN. It is still undergoing rapid development (multiple releases every week), so let me know if you see any bugs or have feature suggestions. I usually address such requests on Github within 2-3 days. https://ift.tt/SRZlB4c Web Based Demo: (some features not available) https://ift.tt/iRrcT8A...

Show HN: Open-Source AI Adventure Game 6 by eob | 0 comments on Hacker News. Hi HN! I'd love your feedback for this AI storytelling game. Remember when you used to read choose-your-own adventure books as a kid? We're trying to re-create that. The site lets you create adventures by seeding them with parameters that end up feeding LLMs: title, genre, writing style, etc. Once you've done that, you can play your book like a game: with custom chapters, illustrations, voice narration, choices, and dice rolls. We’re really into the idea of merging the open-ended generative AI with goal-directed story arcs that the game author can control. Everything is open source (links below) and we’d love your contributions & ideas. I know there's a lot of great work in this space, and the whole team that built this is eager to learn.
