Show HN: AirQL: An Airtable API with OAuth2 access control and permissions https://bit.ly/3Rs4FbR

Show HN: AirQL: An Airtable API with OAuth2 access control and permissions Hey there! At our company, Bit Complete [1], we use Airtable a bunch for managing operations. We really like how easy it is to throw up a form to collect information, or to build automations for offline processing like aggregations. One challenge we kept running into was how to build more complicated interactive apps using the API, while maintaining fine-grained access control to Airtable data. Airtable ties identity to API access control via API keys, which makes it very hard to build apps with realistic access control needs. So we built AirQL! [2] It’s a utility layer between Airtable’s API and custom/internal web applications that supports Google authentication and flexible access control. We’ve found that it makes it practical to build simple, useful internal apps, that still benefit from everything else Airtable has to offer. If this sounds interesting, check out the docs [3], try out the product, and let us know what you think! We’re looking for feedback and to learn if this would be useful to others. If you have questions or suggestions, please get in touch at airql-support@bitcomplete.io.

Show HN: Red Goose – Convert your website to mobile app https://bit.ly/3Co5Ogm

Show HN: Red Goose – Convert your website to mobile app Hi HN! We're Sonica, Marvin, and Satie, and we are building Red Goose (https://bit.ly/3CvR92N). Red Goose is a web app to mobile app conversion engine that produces ready-to-publish apps for the app stores using GitHub repos. There was a discussion on HN a few weeks ago about how a developer shaved off almost half of their native app's code without losing functionality [1]. Our launch today is a direct outcome of that thread and, moreso, in the context of this comment [2] and this one [3]. Paraphrasing the context below: > "Fastmail is the only email/calendar app with a reasonable size (just 20MB)." Followed by: > "… EDIT: just realized the app is a web view. Sigh." As someone who has been into mobile app development since 2010, the comments above read like a punch to the gut. We grew up believing that the native experience was better than the web! It took a while to admit, but the web, it appears, has genuinely caught on. It has matured to a point where the four pillars of web development—HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and WebAssembly—are likely enough for universal distribution. We already host compute-heavy environments for graphic designers [4], video editors [5], and rich document editing [6] on the web. And there is still more capability [7] in the works, if you will. So the question we asked ourselves was: Could the modern web become the "native stack" of mobile app development? With Red Goose, we want developers to be able to do just that. Create web applications that double up as mobile apps for the app stores. But this isn't always easy. Historically, native mobile apps have differed from (outdone?) the mobile web in three broad ways: An app-specific design language, Smooth and fancy screen transitions and, Solving compute-heavy processes that scaled to millions of users. However, at the same time, building and maintaining native mobile apps is super expensive, and it requires hiring separate teams of experienced developers whose sole job is to focus on mobile APIs. Even with the newest alternatives like React Native, Flutter, Cordova, Xamarin, Ionic, or any other similar framework, there is a quantum increase in the amount of boilerplate code. Over time, as many of us have experienced in the industry, the web and native teams grow distant, leading to a less than optimum situation and bloat. Red Goose puts the webview back in the ring. This step alone removes all the duplicated code from the equation. Red Goose then offers an alternate strategy [8], using the webview as the main leverage over your web app. And solve for native experience in the following three ways: First—Intrinsic Design: we have built a new css framework called Toucaan [9] to tackle the gaps between mobile app design and mobile web. It allows the development of "app-like" interfaces using new css standards and the intrinsic qualities of the medium. Second—Screen Transitions and Animations: Not all apps need this, but smooth transitions and performant animations are already possible with the new web APIs. With a strongly cached webpage using a service worker (PWA) and a better understanding of initial containing blocks (ICBs) pertaining to your front end, one can easily take steps to take the experience to the next level. Third—Webassembly: The best thing about webassembly is that the wasm functions return immediately and synchronously. So one can easily offload compute-heavy transactions to a locally installed wasm utility and benefit from performance gains instantly on both web and mobile apps. It appears that many apps wouldn't need to sprinkle webassembly into the mix to reach the level of performance expected of mobile apps, and just caching with a service worker and an app-like layout would do the trick. Red Goose itself uses vanilla javascript and an experimental version of Toucaan for its frontend. Its backend is made with Node.js, Express, and MongoDB and is hosted on AWS within Docker. Our web-to-mobile app conversion pipeline uses NodeGit for app delivery, and the freshly minted mobile apps are written in Swift or Kotlin and shared directly over GitHub. We believe that the opportunity to reduce app development and distribution cost using the newfangled powers of the web is massive—we've already helped a few teams to cut back on their expenses by as much as 80%. At the same time, we're still early and would love to hear what you think about what we're building with Red Goose. We look forward to your comments and experiences, especially if you have been on this path before on your own. Thanks!

Show HN: Restapp.io – SQL Data Modeling Tool in No/Low Code https://bit.ly/3RgKGwE

Show HN: Restapp.io – SQL Data Modeling Tool in No/Low Code Hey all! We've been working on RestApp V1 and this is our first time posting it on HN. It's an No/Low Code data modeling tool that enables you to build & maintain data pipelines with a visual programming interface. We don't store your data but we compute them through Apache Spark for query speed & efficiency. Here's some features: `Connectors: Connect to any source and destinations (DB, DWH and SaaS Applications). We currently support MongoDB, Snowflake, BigQuery, MySQL, MSSQL, SFTP (JSON, txt, csv, excel files supported), Hubspot, Stripe, GDrive (JSON, txt, csv, excel files supported). `Pipeline: Visual Programming Interface where you drag-and-drop SQL, NoSQL & Python functions instead of writing them to create a query and debug it easily. `Automation: You can automate your data pipeline (Job) through a scheduler. `Domain: Think of it like a workspace in which you can share securely your connectors and pipelines to specific users (colleagues, partners, clients...) We've designed this because as a data team member, we were writing a lot of long SQL queries with bad performances and we were getting headaches by debugging them. Now you can build, monitor and debug any kind of data pipelines with just Drag-and-drop built-in SQL functions to save you tremendous amount of time & effort. We're working on this continuously so we're keen to hear any feedback. Feature requests and critique are more than welcome. Try it out for free (30min of computing time offered each month): https://bit.ly/3E3glhW The Getting Started docs are here for anyone who wants to check this out: https://bit.ly/3LRbxOC and https://bit.ly/3fsiQ3c... https://bit.ly/3E3glhW September 28, 2022 at 11:14AM

Show HN: KaithemAutomation, the home automation system for coders and artists https://bit.ly/3RkruxO

Show HN: KaithemAutomation, the home automation system for coders and artists I've talked about this one on Reddit a bit, and I think it's finally about ready to talk about here. I started this project around 2013 for internal use, and GPL licensed it because I have no desire to own my own software business. Kaithem is, for the most part, somewhere between a SCADA and a Home Assistant clone, heavily focused on easy deployment with minimal tinkering. It allows for Python code based if-then events you edit via the web, along with web-editable HTML dashboards, but also includes loadable modules for more point-and-click style editing. One of these is Chandler, a scenes/cues manager that includes a simple visual scripting language inspired by ladder logic. It saves everything you create in Git-friendly plain text files, and is meant to integrate well with a linux system, with convenience features like using the user account username/password to log in. Device drivers created via an extension API, and can also be used in non-kaithem apps, via the iot_devices library. Drivers should be share-able and installable via pip. There's also basic builtin support for IP cameras, including sub-second latency streaming via websockets, and object detect recording. Out-of-the-box device support is pretty limited at the moment, consisting entirely of stuff I've had a use case for personally, but does include YeeLight, RTL433-supported sensors, SainSmart relay boards, and most anything ZigBee2MQTT can handle. In addition, there are tag points and alarms vaguely copied from SCADA systems, modules can make use of the tagpoint object, which is like a variable that hooks into the tag point system, every point gets a management page where you can set alarms, set up logging, which includes the ability to only log the min, max, or average over time, to save space, and override it's value. It uses only external dependencies found in the Debian repos, and does not include any crazy built in custom feature downloader thingy like some similar projects, nor anything that needs compilation. It does not use a database, separate web server, or any other thing that would require you to specifically configure the system in an unusual way, although some features can make use of MQTT, and it does depend on PipeWire being set up if you want to use the built in audio live mixer(You may also be able to use it with manually started JACK). It's 99% stable, used in real installs, and could probably be called v1.0 already, but there are unmaintained experimental features that will probably disappear(Anything that involves a custom nonstandard network protocol is on the chopping block, as per my philosophy of decustomizing technology, as is HTTPS support as that may be better done externally). https://bit.ly/3DZjwr3 September 28, 2022 at 06:11AM

Show HN: Get conversational practice in over 20 languages by talking to an AI https://bit.ly/3rh9pGl

Show HN: Get conversational practice in over 20 languages by talking to an AI Hi everyone, Let me introduce you to Quazel, where we want to enable people to talk their way to fluency. We have all tried various language learning apps and tools, however, one aspect of language learning current services are really bad at is conversational practice. You might get a chat-like interface, but in the end, the conversation partner will only respond with a predefined "if the users say X I say Y". With Quazel that's completely different. In completely dynamic and unscripted conversation you can talk about pretty much anything you want. For example, you can try ordering food at a restaurant and even hold a philosophical discussion with Socrates. Additionally, you can analyze the grammar of your responses or use hints to help you out when you get stuck. We want to change how languages are learned from a grammar-centric approach to a more natural, conversation-focused one. https://bit.ly/3E22bxT September 27, 2022 at 10:18AM

Show HN: A Stable Diffusion desktop frontend with inpainting, img2img and more https://bit.ly/3C19ZOU

Show HN: A Stable Diffusion desktop frontend with inpainting, img2img and more I was frustrated with laggy notebook stable diffusion demos. Plus they usually didn't have all the features I wanted (for example some of them only had inpainting and some only had img2img, so if I wanted both I had to repeatedly copy images between notebooks). So I made this desktop frontend which has much smoother performance than notebook alternatives and integrates image generation, inpainting and img2img into the same workflow. See a video demo here: https://bit.ly/3C50JJJ... Features include: * Can run locally or connect to a google colab server * Ability to erase * Ability to paint custom colors into the image. It is useful both for img2img (you can sketch a rough prototype and reimagine it into something nice) and inpainting (for example, you can paint a pixel red and it forces Stable Diffusion to put something red in there) * Infinite undo/redo * You can import your other images into a scratch pad and paste them into main image after erasing/cropping/scaling it * Increase image size (by padding with transparent empty margins) for outpainting https://bit.ly/3LA8IkZ September 23, 2022 at 09:23AM

Show HN: Venice – open-source Plaid to Postgres in minutes without code https://bit.ly/3xMXMed

Show HN: Venice – open-source Plaid to Postgres in minutes without code Hi HN! Tony & Ali here, we are super excited to introduce Venice - an open source financial data integrations platform. Our MVP is getting financial data from Plaid into your postgres database in under 5 mins. We met while building our own respective fintechs. We noticed how much developer time went into setting up and maintaining the infrastructure rather than actually building the fintech itself. In Tony’s last project Alka for instance, the engineering team spent 30%+ of time building and maintaining the data connectivity and pipeline rather than the core work of accounting. What we wish existed is a Segment / Airtable for fintech, letting you get financial data from wherever they are produced to anywhere they are useful. We think the most basic version is a Plaid to Postgres database connector with a self-service portal where your customers can add / remove / repair and manage their financial connections. This takes less than 5 mins to set up without writing a single line of code. In fact, we went so far as asking non technical people to get set up and they were able to do it just as fast using Vercel, Supabase and Plaid. Today, our product is perfect if you’re just starting out or using it as a hobby, but eventually we hope any sized fintech could use what we’ve built as the project matures and community grows. We wrote it using full stack TypeScript, and paid special attention to composability and extensibility. There is a core connect & sync library with its own cli, a HTTP API (thank you to the amazing folks at trpc + zod), a set of headless React components, theme-able data-connected UI library leveraging tailwindcss, and finally a next.js application that puts it all together. Each layer is built on the one before, so you can start with no code at all while drop down to any layer of abstraction as your need grow. What we are shipping today is a complete, instantly deployable next.js application which you can use either as a standalone portal via redirect, or embed into your application via iframe. The default setup uses Vercel as we expect you to bring your own database and authentication that powers the rest of your application. The repo is licensed under MIT & ELv2, so you are completely free to use it for your own projects and companies while we retain the right to being the only one to release a cloud hosted version in the future. Check us out at https://bit.ly/3LzvZnd . We have a ton of ideas in mind and would love your feedback.

Show HN: Copy link to highlight alternative for Chrome with multiple highlights Hi HN! I made a Chrome extension called Save Link to Highlight. It makes it easy for those who want to share multiple highlights on a page without any hassles. It uses the same built-in technology in Chrome as Copy link to highlight. So, the link you share will highlight text on the page once it's opened in most browsers without 3rd party tools. Ex. https://bit.ly/3R4nf9y It's free! No account or signup needed. Some everyday use cases • Share an article with a friend that also has the parts you found most interesting highlighted. • A teacher can share key points they highlighted for students on a Wikipedia page. https://bit.ly/3QYG3Hv September 22, 2022 at 01:34PM

Show HN: Search for the Best of Anything Bestlist is a search engine that is focused solely on helping users discover the best of anything. All of our results are non-biased, non-paid, and are dynamically generated via our search algorithm. It’s not perfect, but we’re working extremely hard and are determined to make it ubiquitous in the lives of the everyday internet user.

Show HN: Hurl, test APIs with plain text and libcurl https://bit.ly/3Sn1rag

Show HN: Hurl, test APIs with plain text and libcurl Hi, We're happy to release a new version of Hurl [1]. Hurl is a command line tool powered by curl, that runs HTTP requests defined in a simple plain text format: # Get home: GET https://bit.ly/3f6GNNw HTTP/1.1 200 [Captures] csrf_token: xpath "string(//meta[@name='_csrf_token']/@content)" # Do login! POST https://bit.ly/3R0KgKw X-CSRF-TOKEN: HTTP/1.1 302 Hurl can be used to get data like curl, or as an integration testing tool for JSON/XML HTTP apis / HTML content. Requests can be chained, and one can add asserts on response headers, cookies and body. For instance: GET https://bit.ly/3f9uOOX screencapability: low HTTP/1.1 200 [Asserts] jsonpath "$.validated" == true jsonpath "$.userInfo.lastName" == "Herbert" jsonpath "$.hasDevice" == false jsonpath "$.links" count == 12 jsonpath "$.order" matches /^order-\d{8}$/ You can see more samples in the documentation [2]. We've designed Hurl to be easily integrated in CI/CD (GitHub, GitLab), and its text format can be used as a documentation, commited in a repo etc... It's a single binary written in Rust, that is powered by libcurl under the hood, for a fast CLI tool for both devops and developers. In this new version, we've added the following improvements: - verbose output: add more color to Hurl --verbose output, and also added --very-verbose option to output request and response bodies - request options: command-line options such as --location (follow HTTP redirection), --verbose, --insecure etc... can now be applied to a particular request with an [Options] sections - and more, see here for a quick tout of 1.7.0 [3] [1] https://bit.ly/3faL6qM [2] https://bit.ly/3QUk8RG [3] https://bit.ly/3QYUWtd Previous Show HN < https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28758226 > and < https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25655737 > https://bit.ly/3faL6qM September 21, 2022 at 09:43AM

Demo here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=maWR7dDf4SE Although it will be improving, the codebase has a few issues The Good - ability to multitask within krita while generating images - uses a queue so you can queue up multiple images without waiting for your other batches to come back - no need for a webserver (uses sockets to communicate) - clean code - active development (i want to use this tool myself) - uses stablediffusiond and stablediffusion as separate repos, these can be swapped out as desired with some hacking The Bad - currently relies on rabbitmq and doesn't provide another option - plugin only does txt2txt. img2img works but is disabled - must acquire the model manually The ugly - not all of the features work yet. in fact you can only generate an image. - installation is somewhat involved (requires CUDA 11.3, rabbitmq and more) - there is an installation file and instructions but likely need improvement, Krita Stable Diffusion plugin https://bit.ly/3Bpdc9l stablediffusiond (daemon / queue runners) https://bit.ly/3BQvvpA stable diffusion https://bit.ly/3Sfl6sy --- if anyone uses this and runs into problems, just open an issue in the appropriate repo and i'll do my best to help. https://bit.ly/3Bpdc9l September 17, 2022 at 11:43PM

Show HN: Cachegrand – a fast OSS Key-Value store built for modern hardware I am the author of the platform, happy to reply to any question you might have! It scales up really nicely thanks to a year of research and development of the hashtable implemented in cachegrand, on the hardware used for benchmarking, an AMD EPYC 7502P, it was able to reach up to 5mln GET QPS and 4.5mln SET QPS, with batching up to 60mln GET QPS and up to 26MLN SET QPS. cachegrand is fast, it's fully Open Source, it's under a BSD 3-clause license - it can be used easily as standalone platform or incorporated in other ones without any licensing issue - and we are working to expand the Redis functionalities supported and to impelement a tiered storage to cache more data than the available memory. Longer term our goal is to expand the support to different platforms (e.g. memcache, kafka, etc.), add support to webassembly to have user defined functions and server side events, and of course a network bypass (combining XDP and a lockless FreeBSD tcp/ip stack) and a storage bypass. Although it can easily used via docker, here a direct link to the latest release https://bit.ly/3deN3lz....

Show HN: Rentaflop – Render your Blender projects without sacrificing quality https://bit.ly/3RCjvxf

Show HN: Rentaflop – Render your Blender projects without sacrificing quality Hi HN, My name is David Sokol, and I'm the founder of rentaflop (https://bit.ly/3bnmMAv). We're a crowdsourced render farm aimed at making Blender rendering fast and affordable. If you've used Blender, then I'm sure you've experienced the pain of waiting around for your animations to render. You've probably even had to sacrifice the quality of your work to reduce your render times. I've been there too. If you're like me, then you're also disappointed with the alternative solutions: spending thousands of dollars on graphics cards or using prohibitively expensive cloud render farms to get fast render times. Our solution to this dilemma is to leverage low opportunity cost hardware from around the world to allow Blender artists to render their projects quickly, affordably, and without compromising on quality. Since most graphics card owners aren't utilizing their hardware to do valuable work 24/7, we provide them with a way to make money without lifting a finger, while lowering the cost curve for 3D rendering. We're currently doing a public beta. If you'd like to try us, check out our site (https://bit.ly/3bnmMAv) and render your Blender project quickly and affordably! If you're a graphics card owner who wants to help Blender artists while earning money, reach out to support@rentaflop.com and we'll help you get set up. We posted about our private beta on HN a few weeks ago. If you'd like, you can check out the discussion here (https://bit.ly/3zlMhKL). Please leave a comment below, we'd love to hear your thoughts :) September 14, 2022 at 04:34PM

Show HN: ViruSaas – Virus Checks as a Service https://bit.ly/3Lez3Vp

Show HN: ViruSaas – Virus Checks as a Service Hi all, here is a side project I've just launched which might come in handy for certain situations. It's a very simple and free "do one thing and do it well" online service with exactly one feature: you upload a file, and it tells you — based on a ClamAV check — if that file contains a virus or not. I'm not having any ambitious plans with this project, but thanks to very low operational costs, I thought I can as well put it out there and keep it alive — maybe it's even useful for some people every now and then (just today, one of my coworkers forwarded me a fishy-looking email with an attachment, and using virusaas.com turned out to be the least painful way to do this kind of one-off check for a virus). I've also released the source code of the web app under GPLv3 at https://bit.ly/3Lez4Zt , although it's not as polished as it could be (no tests, for example — but see above, no ambitious plans). The main reason to do the project was to follow through with my own tutorial at https://bit.ly/3BH1Oas... , which worked out quite nicely. https://bit.ly/3LezbUT September 14, 2022 at 12:19PM

Show HN: Inko 0.10.0 – build concurrent software with confidence I last did a "Show HN" about Inko in 2018 ( https://bit.ly/3RN8lWa ), but the language has changed drastically since then. For example, the GC is removed and we now use a single ownership model, and Inko's concurrency API is now type-safe (inspired a bit by Pony). I'm hopeful these changes will make Inko a more interesting/compelling language to use compared to the likes of Ruby, Python, and Go (basically any mid/high level language where concurrency is needed). https://bit.ly/3d5pueT September 12, 2022 at 04:16PM

Show HN: Quake VR – Quake (1996) as a first-class PCVR experience https://bit.ly/3B92FPB

Show HN: Quake VR – Quake (1996) as a first-class PCVR experience Hello HN! I am proud to show you Quake VR, a "labor of love" one-man project that I started back in 2020 with the goal of turning Quake -- the timeless classic from 1996 -- into a first-class PCVR experience. --- > What do you mean by "first-class"? There are many mods out there that enable older games to be played in VR, however, not much thought is put into VR-unique mechanics or in making the experience feel seamless. While I do enjoy reliving nostalgic classics in VR (and thank the modders for their efforts), it does feel weird having to use a keyboard+mouse setup for a VR game, or -- even with motion controls -- not being able to physically interact with the game's world, or having a gun glued to one of my hands. With Quake VR, I tried my best to make the game feel like an experienced designed from the ground up for VR. A video is worth a thousand words: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBoI16z8Nxg --- As you can see from the video above, Quake VR provides a plethora of VR-specific features, including: - Virtual in-game hands with finger tracking - Dual-wield weapons or hold a weapon with two hands - Physical melee combat, including throwing weapons and headbutts - Weapon models with ironsights - Collisions between the player's hands and the environment - Holster system with virtual torso For a complete list of features, check out the README: https://bit.ly/3xdOWpg I love VR-unique interactions, and I try to find opportunities to add more. As an example, I recently added "flick reloading" to the SSG -- see it in action here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uV8gbDvNYAM . Here is an older trailer showcasing features like dual-wielding, holsters, and the grappling hook: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_ctxSqs6gA --- Quake VR is written in modern C++ and it's completely free and open-source : https://bit.ly/3Dikm1W . If you have any question about the game or any implementation detail, feel free to ask here on or the official Discord server ( https://bit.ly/3L61bdh ). --- If you have a PCVR headset, I sincerely hope you will check out the game and let me know what you think! The game is available on a "pay what you wish" model here: https://bit.ly/3Lc6B6Q - Make sure you closely follow the installation guide ( https://bit.ly/3Dx7vcn )! Cheers, Vittorio --- FAQ: > Is this project related to the Quake ports available for the Meta Quest? * No, this project is separate from those. It uses a different engine and it was developed by me, Vittorio Romeo, with some very appreciated contributions by community members (https://bit.ly/3xgCeGp). > Why is Quake VR not available on Steam? * I've tried really, *really* hard to release it on Steam as a free community mod. However, that requires permission from the owners of the Quake IP. I have spent countless hours trying to communicate with id Software, Bethesda, Microsoft, never receiving *any* sort of response. I've even tried directly contacting employees, who kindly forwarded my request to the legal team, to no avail: zero answers whatsoever. I have not given up -- if you know someone that can help, please let me know! > Is Quake VR compatible with existing Quake mods or existing Quake servers? * No, Quake VR uses a custom protocol and engine in order to deliver first-class VR features. It is possible to adapt mods to work with Quake VR -- I have done that for the official expansions and some popular mods. > How can I support the Quake VR project? * Quake VR is FOSS, however I am more than happy to accept donations for my efforts. PayPal (https://bit.ly/3L30G3M) works best for me, alternatively consider purchasing "Open Hexagon" (https://bit.ly/3BaSES5), my first commercial game on Steam. https://bit.ly/3xeaVga September 11, 2022 at 05:27AM

Show HN: Invest in Airbnbs Like Stocks Hey HN - I’m Ryan, the co-founder of Arrived. We made it possible to buy shares of vacation rentals, starting from $100. Investors earn the booking income & property appreciation from being an owner, without all of the work typically involved. Airbnb’s can be a killer business. They have helped vacation rental owners generate over $150 Billion in rental income from serving a billion guest arrivals, but less than 0.5% of these guests have been able to participate in the owner side of the Airbnb economy. Arrived is the first company with SEC Qualified offerings to buy shares in individual properties like this. We launched rental home investing last year and have funded $55m in rental homes across the country so far. And we are excited to launch vacation rental investing on our platform this week. Would love any feedback on our vacation rental launch. https://bit.ly/3L01rdU September 9, 2022 at 04:28PM

Show HN: Visualizing Startup Management with Timeline https://bit.ly/3D7lRjm

Show HN: Visualizing Startup Management with Timeline Hi everyone, We are building a web app for startup founders. Like Jira, Notion, or ClickUp, we support task management. However, we think time is more important than the tasks, because startups need to build product fast, and shift focus fast. Therefore, we built one universal timeline to help you easily manage tasks, clients, projects and deadlines, so you can directly compare the important dates from all your departments and find one which matter the most now. We also support task auto scheduling, so when you shift your team to a new direction, you just need to change the priority, and we help you reschedule all the tasks in you team. So you don't need to manually updating the start date or the end date fields in Jira, Notion, or ClickUp. You may have heard of Motion ( https://bit.ly/3Dbiacj ), which also supports task auto scheduling. Unlike it, our app focuses on serving the startup teams and innovation teams. So we also have the goal tracking feature to help startups meet the annual growth goal from every day. We are actively learning, and we want to build something people want. We are looking for any feedback from you. Best, Zhe https://bit.ly/3D62KnS September 8, 2022 at 04:35AM

Show HN: I built an open source job scheduler to help script everything https://bit.ly/3cQjI0w

Show HN: I built an open source job scheduler to help script everything As a software engineer, my reflex has always been to script everything I can. Scripting is easy, but everything around it is tricky: scripts have to run somewhere, they need access to credentials, they need to be monitored. None of it is simple. No-code automation platforms such as Zapier or IFTTT are too restrictive for technical tasks; CI/CD platforms make it easy to script tasks related to a repository, but are limited when trying to do anything else. I wanted the low level control you have when writing scripts while retaining the comfort of a platform managing execution for me. So I built a program for that. Eventline schedules, runs and monitors any script. Jobs can be executed on various runtimes (currently locally, with SSH, in Docker or in Kubernetes), manually or in reaction to various events. You then get observability (script output, history, execution stats…), full control (with the web UI, HTTP API or command line tool) and the ability to share scripts with others. Eventline 1.0 is out. I use it myself, so does a friend and a first client. The roadmap is packed with features which will make Eventline even more useful: global registry for value injection, sub-jobs, scratchpad to share data between jobs, artifacts, ACL (and SSO for Eventline Pro), a lot more connectors, identities and events… I quitted my job in 2020 and created a company, Exograd, hoping to become financially independent. This has been quite a ride, both exhilarating and scary: I made lots of mistakes and learned more in 22 months than in my entire career. I would like to bring enough revenue to be able to live from it, and then work on expanding Eventline and developing new technical products. I currently offer a support contract, a proprietary extension (Eventline Pro) for enterprise use, and cloud hosting to use Eventline without having to host it. Happy to answer any question! https://bit.ly/3qg8mGe September 6, 2022 at 01:09PM

Show HN: I made Scrabble with modified rules https://bit.ly/3TJ3LK6

Show HN: I made Scrabble with modified rules Crapple is my take on "improved" Scrabble rules... obviously that is subjective, I'm not even sure I agree with it. You and your opponent share a rack of letters, and vowels are only obtained by opting to deduct a configurable amount of points from your score to receive a random vowel tile. Additionally, there is an alternate board layout with some new tile multipliers. This is an old project but I never posted it, so I thought what the hey, I am curious to hear what your guys' thoughts are on these rules. It's an old dead project so you can't hurt my feelings. Thanks! You can play it now against the computer in your browser (no signup required, but an account lets you create and play games against other humans). The Android app is the better version only because the AI will run on a seperate thread (in the browser version you might see a hiccup while it runs), and because Unity WebGL doesn't export retina-sized graphics (ie graphics may look less than sharp on your mobile device). (Note: I linked the landing page instead of the direct link to play in case you are on mobile and want to avoid a largish download. Direct link to play in the browser is here: https://bit.ly/3TToprp ) --- Some more details for anyone still reading... It's your basic LAMP stack on AWS, with Laravel for the web framework and Unity (2017) for the client. The dictionary is stored as a DAWG. When you play a word, instead of giving you the dictionary definition, I wanted to do something different like provide a paragraph from a book that the word was used in. You can click the book icon to get some of those, I was scraping books in the public domain but gave up after a while when I was getting diminishing returns for words I lacked paragraphs for (if you try it you will likely see a lot of Moby Dick paragraphs as I never randomized it either). The AI was based on the scrabble AI algorithm (I think it was this, but can't remember now, https://bit.ly/3RifZb5... ). Since Crapple has modified rules, due the possibility of "buying" vowels on your turn, there is set of _potential_ playable words. The Crapple AI ranks each word based on the cost of the vowels needed with their probability of obtaining the needed vowels. The AI is not very intelligent, the difference between the 3 provided computer opponents is just the average word score they will play. If I had worked on this any longer I could have extended this to let them take into account what words/scores they may be setting you up for with their play, and other ideas. Each player's avatar is consistent, but uniquely generated for them. I didn't want to have every using the same boring default avatar, but didn't want the hassles of letting people upload their own, so I went with a version of this idea: https://bit.ly/3THFtAb https://bit.ly/3RivAHE September 3, 2022 at 09:15PM

Show HN: Alumina Programming Language Alumina is a programming language I have been working on for a while. Alumina may be for you if you like the control that C gives you but miss goodies from higher level programming languages. It is mostly for fun and exercise in language design, I don't have any grand aspirations for it. It is however, by this time, a usable general-purpose language. Alumina borrows (zing) heavily from Rust, except for its raison d'être (memory safety). Syntax is a blatant rip-off of Rust, but so is the standard library scope and structure. Alumina bootstrap compiler currently compiles to ugly C, but a self-hosted compiler is early stages that will target LLVM as backend. If that sounds interesting, give it a try.

Show HN: SMS Interface for Stable Diffusion If you text 8145594701, it will send back an image with the prompt you specified. Currently only US numbers can send/receive texts because Twilio. Sorry to the rest of the planet! I think this will likely fall over but I figured this would be a cool little thing to demo. I removed the NSFW filter so be mindful of your prompts! I don't persist numbers and there is no linkages being saved between the original text message and the generated images. September 3, 2022 at 12:22AM

Show HN: I'm building an open-source Amazon https://bit.ly/3cByB77

Show HN: I'm building an open-source Amazon A couple of years ago, I had an interesting idea. What if there was a marketplace where all the underlying tech was open-source? The order management system, the storefront, customer support, etc. The marketplace would simply connect to the seller’s infra instead of locking them in. If, for some reason, the seller is removed from the marketplace, their software stays with them and they can continue accepting orders directly. This model can be used to disrupt any marketplace from AirBNB to UberEats: building tech for home renters and restaurants and later, leveraging that to build a competing marketplace. In 2019, I started building the first piece, Openship, an order management system that lets you source orders and fulfill them from anywhere. Now that that’s in stable release, next up is Openfront (an e-commerce platform for storefronts) and Opensupport (ticketing software for customer support). Together, they provide the staples for any modern business: sales, fulfillment, support. Let me know what you guys think of the idea and if you see any potential pitfalls. https://bit.ly/34ImG0j September 2, 2022 at 02:19PM

Show HN: Wavvy – web-based audio editor (Audacity port) I originally developed a WASM port of wxWidgets for https://bit.ly/3CRuJtb . When it came time to open source wxWidgets-wasm, I decided to port another complex app as a test case, and Audacity seemed like the obvious choice. In the process, I also needed to write a new host API for PortAudio for playback and recording in the browser. https://bit.ly/3ejKm2b https://bit.ly/3CPrkv1 https://bit.ly/3D8ScX9 https://bit.ly/3CMEA3w September 2, 2022 at 10:31AM

Show HN: Pith language. JavaScript with a little bit of Python syntax https://bit.ly/3cDekxV

Show HN: Pith language. JavaScript with a little bit of Python syntax I've been writing a lot of JavaScript and Python lately. I like Python's syntax, so I created a language called Pith that's JS with some Python-like syntax (but without trailing colons). It's not a full compiler. It really just does search-and-replace, but I find it fun and useful in spite of some sharp edges. I use it on my smartphone to write and run short programs. Here's an example using the HN API: max = 6 ids = await getApi('topstories') for id in ids.slice(0, max) getItem(id) async def getItem(id) const d = document.createElement('div') results.appendChild(d) d.style = 'padding-bottom: 1em;' i = await getApi('item/' + id) ? i.title, '|', i.score u = '//news.ycombinator.com/item?id=' d.innerHTML = i.title.link(u + id) async def getApi(path) u = '//hacker-news.firebaseio.com/v0/' return getJson(u + path + '.json') https://bit.ly/3RsdmTH September 1, 2022 at 07:47PM

Show HN: Open-source infra for building embedded data pipelines https://bit.ly/3RoH3VG

Show HN: Open-source infra for building embedded data pipelines Hey HN! We are building *open source infrastructure for deploying customer-facing data pipelines.* Here’s our repo https://bit.ly/3eaqrmp and website https://bit.ly/3KFMhKT . Pipebird is designed to enable companies that generate important data to offer secure data pushes to their customers’ warehouses, directly from their products. Our team was previously building in fintech, where we heard from many of our peers that their customers wanted data pushed directly to their warehouses. Customers wanted to bring data into their source of truth without having to maintain custom built pipelines or introduce security risks by contracting a third-party ETL/ELT provider. After seeing Stripe https://bit.ly/3RaZYUs and customer.io https://bit.ly/3eaqrCV recently invest in building out their own native data sharing products, we realized that many SaaS companies could better support their customers and even generate additional revenue by offering native data pipelines. Our goal with Pipebird is to make creating a reliable data pipeline as simple as pressing a button from a vendor's dashboard. With the current iteration of the product, data can be selected from a number of sources (ex: Postgres, MySQL, CockroachDB, etc.), customers can configure pipelines and optionally apply transformations (like type casting), and data can be periodically synced directly to customers’ warehouses (ex: Snowflake). We’re actively adding sources/destinations and would appreciate any feature requests. Here's a 2 min demo of the product https://bit.ly/3eaqj6p Pipebird is open source (MIT license) so that any developer can use it. Our aim is to not charge individual developers - we make money selling paid plans that include features like multiple projects, user permissions, additional security features, managed infra, support, etc. Give us a whirl: https://bit.ly/3eaqrmp . We’d love your feedback and will be here to answer any questions! https://bit.ly/3eaqrmp September 1, 2022 at 05:57PM

Show HN: OpenBracket, a collaborative code editor for technical interviews Hi everyone! At Fluxon, we found that we were't happy with existing solutions for collaborative coding with engineering candidates in our technical interviews. So we built OpenBracket.net—a simple code editor with no setup or log in needed—just share the link and start coding together. Our first version is now available for anyone to use. We’d love some feedback. Thanks! https://bit.ly/3RprDAO August 31, 2022 at 06:40PM

Show HN: Using GPT-3 to answer annoying interview application questions https://bit.ly/3KQn2pj

Show HN: Using GPT-3 to answer annoying interview application questions Hi folks. My wife has been looking for a job and sometimes in the application forms there are annoying questions like "Why do you want to work here?". At the same time I've been playing around with GPT-3 and have blown away by it's capabilities, so I decided to build a site that can answer these annoying questions for her. Github: https://bit.ly/3TxHpeQ Here's an example of a generated answer: Using this opening for a Senior iOS Engineer at Monzo - https://bit.ly/3Tz7xWE The generated answer question on the application "What attracted you to Monzo?": "What attracted me to Monzo is that it is a bank that is trying to make a difference in the world by making it easier for people to manage their money. Monzo is also very customer focused and puts the customer first in everything they do." https://bit.ly/3KzfCXb September 1, 2022 at 08:30AM
