Show HN: Directly query 100M+ raw records of cleaned, refreshed financial data https://bit.ly/3QUqXTX

Show HN: Directly query 100M+ raw records of cleaned, refreshed financial data There are a lot of APIs that provide access to these types of data, but there were not any (as far as we're aware of) tools & services that provide access to query the raw data directly for analytical purposes. We get the data across different sources and clean, schematize them in a PostgreSQL databases so folks can query/analyze the data directly. We have ~100 tables of data across stocks, ETFs, economic indicators, US/international census data and plan to keep adding more. More information on the tables are available at https://bit.ly/3CACweG Access to all of the data is free, and we plan to (in the future) find ways to cover our costs by charging for folks who want to run their queries faster (e.g. by running their queries on separate compute clusters) or by providing custom integration to fit their data needs. Please take a look, and would please share any feedback with us here! https://bit.ly/3ASiWtd August 28, 2022 at 02:21AM

Show HN: Make Any CLI into a GUI in Acme https://bit.ly/3cugWOj

Show HN: Make Any CLI into a GUI in Acme Hey HN. I've become enamored with the Acme editor. It's fascinating because it turns the Vim paradigm on its head: instead of maximizing your use of the keyboard, maximize your use of the mouse. I think this helps optimize for information management, as opposed to text manipulation. I realized a lot of the CLIs I use have the same structure, and with a small program I could convert them into GUIs inside Acme and make them much easier to use. Let me know what you think. https://bit.ly/3AlgLg8 August 27, 2022 at 08:15PM

Show HN: A Minimal PHP Wiki https://bit.ly/3AqfoNm

Show HN: A Minimal PHP Wiki First, I'm by no mean a programmer. Second, I am reading HN for years, just registered to make this public and see if it can be useful for someone. I have nothing to gain monetary. A while ago, I decided that no blogging system was simple enough and I looked for a small wiki to use as a CMS/blog. Found WikWiki on C2.com and I mixed it with some basic Markdown syntax, a minimal template and added password protection. The result is a single php file, no database and no dependencies. Code is a mess, not modulable, probably wrong in so many ways, but it can probably used by some as personal notepad, wiki, CMS, blog, etc. Any comments appreciated. https://bit.ly/3AT2Yzc August 26, 2022 at 10:16PM

Show HN: Browse Hacker News on your Kindle via browser for free https://bit.ly/3dXOJ2T

Show HN: Browse Hacker News on your Kindle via browser for free tl;dr: Go to kindlehnbeta.pythonanywhere.com on your Kindle’s browser. I wrote a wrapper over hackernews that allows me to browse it on my Kindle. Simply visit kindlehnbeta.pythonanywhere.com on your Kindle’s browser. You’ll be able to view top stories, the comments within them and even the article content that the stories link to. The articles are parsed by a library that makes its best attempt to extract the main content. I only own a Kindle Oasis (10th Generation) and thus have only tested this on it. I’d imagine it looks fine on other Kindles, but you’ll have to tell me. Link to screenshots: https://bit.ly/3CRMSav Really, I made this for myself as a quick solution for a personal need. But it seems like there are a few of you out there that would enjoy this as well. So I am making this public for others to try out. Let me know if this is something you actually want to use. If so, and the reception is positive, then I will continue to build it out to be better and more feature complete. In addition to this, would you enjoy a generic rss feed reader as well? — one that allows you to read any rss feed right from your Kindle’s browser? I can build this if that’s something you guys really want. https://bit.ly/3Rg7XPO August 27, 2022 at 03:19AM

Show HN: Devbox – Easy, predictable shells and containers https://bit.ly/3AlNO3T

Show HN: Devbox – Easy, predictable shells and containers Devbox is a command-line tool that lets you easily create isolated shells and containers. You start by defining the list of packages required by your development environment, and devbox uses that definition to create an isolated environment just for your application. In practice, Devbox works similar to a package manager like yarn – except the packages it manages are at the operating-system level (the sort of thing you would normally install with brew or apt-get).

Show HN: I built a tool to help you read Hacker News on Kindle https://bit.ly/3AqvLJH

Show HN: I built a tool to help you read Hacker News on Kindle Hi HN, I'm Daniel Nguyen. In June, I quit my job to start indie hacking full-time. The idea of KTool first came to my mind when I was reading "Ask HN: I'm a software engineer going blind, how should I prepare?"[0] I've been wearing glasses since I was 5. My right eye is basically blind. Doctors said there is no chance to cure it. I was genuinely scared. Like holy shit, if my left eye stops working, my life is done. Since then I've been very conscious about time spent on computer screens. That's when I started using Kindle-related products: to offload as many reading materials as possible to the Kindle. I was a happy customer of Push to Kindle. Great product!! Then I ran into multiple limitations which led me to build KTool: a tool to send anything online to Kindle. Blog posts, Twitter threads, Hacker News discussions, RSS, newsletters... you name it. If you're a Kindle owner and you read a lot of online content, give KTool a try.

Show HN: I Made yet Another Rick Roll Link Generator – Instant Rick Roll https://bit.ly/3QSDM15

Show HN: I Made yet Another Rick Roll Link Generator – Instant Rick Roll Hey there -- thought I'd show this simple app off. I'm bad at rails/html/css/js but made a Rick Roll generator in just under a day with rails! It's kind of incredible how relevant the rick roll still is after ~15 years. Any generated Links Dynamically make opengraph tags to disguise themselves as whatever the user inputs. It's been pretty fun to see people making their own Rick Roll links. Everyone wants to make a million dollar SaaS app but making dumb little apps like this is something I might do more of! Also -- it's kind of messed up how easily you could phish someone, I've made a bunch of random links my friends would be interested in and the click through rate is very high. https://bit.ly/3CulXBh August 25, 2022 at 05:10PM

Show HN: Commandline tool for protecting data using TouchID+Secure Enclave https://bit.ly/3pKv4WJ

Show HN: Commandline tool for protecting data using TouchID+Secure Enclave Toucli is a tool I made to solve a specific problem on my personal MacBook, where I had to pass in sensitive data like API keys to 3rd party applications on the commandline, but wanted to encrypt those keys on disk and require the physical presence of TouchID to decrypt/access them. As I state in the readme, for production and office environments a proper external system would be better, but for my single personal machine Toucli solved my problems without needing any external running service. It was also an excuse to use Swift and Xcode for the first time, which I had wanted to do for some time. https://bit.ly/3PQ3zG7 August 25, 2022 at 07:47AM
