Show HN: Text editor with inline English-German dictionary https://bit.ly/3gb30e0

Show HN: Text editor with inline English-German dictionary Hi When you are learning a new language, you need to practice different skills: reading, listening, speaking, writing. I find writing to be the hardest activity, not least because I have to look up words in the dictionary all the time, and that is a frustrating context switch. Here is an experimental CodeMirror-based editor, that lets you look up translations inline. Type @ followed by the English word, and get a list of possible translations, and select the translation to apply it.

Show HN: Write drum patterns, get randomized songs, then just share the URL https://bit.ly/3VlWoIX

Show HN: Write drum patterns, get randomized songs, then just share the URL I know mentioning Michael Seibel is almost cheating, but this week he demonstrated the "leaky pipes" concept to me. Not that I know the guy, but in one of his videos he says something on the lines of "If you are unsure if you app is ready to be launched, just launch it. It's like a house with leaky pipes, just open the main, grab your tools, and start fixing wherever water is leaking". So we did it, we launched drummy earlier this week on /r/InternetIsBeautiful and we got very close to 10k users in just one day! Survived the hug of death, learned a ton, and made changes all around. Still a ton of bugs to fix, features to be written, but at least now we can proudly present the "dummy drums challenges". Can you find the missing beats? https://bit.ly/3Ulwfdk November 17, 2022 at 11:23AM

Show HN: European based endurance sports planning and analytics platform I worked on this more then 2 years now. It's gaining more and more attention recently, so the database byte size is getting bigger and bigger. The stack is React, Node, MongoDB (replica set) with XFS on primary servers and ZFS on secondary servers for snapshots. Distributed with LXC/LXD containerization. https://bit.ly/3TIB3I6 November 16, 2022 at 03:30PM

Show HN: A simple, terminal game of liar's dice for human, computer and AI Play locally, play over websockets. A simple program to play against the computer, or with others over websocket. I need to improve the local computer agent (using some better probability theory), but I wonder if there is much AI research for liar's dice or dice based game I could implement. https://bit.ly/3V1VK2V November 16, 2022 at 07:10AM

Show HN: Paid job search? Are you nuts?” ^ That's what our team said to me initially but we think it's pretty chill now. We built a job search tool that uses investor software to help you discover the most exciting companies to work for right now. Free this week so that you guys can try it out before we hard launch next week (paywall is down). Feedback is our oxygen: What can we do better? Are you gonna give us money? Why do you hate the design? https://bit.ly/3tzCKgq November 15, 2022 at 11:27PM

Show HN: We built a privacy based decentralised cloud compute platform https://bit.ly/3UVuJy1

Show HN: We built a privacy based decentralised cloud compute platform TCore is a cloud infrastructure platform that allows developers to run hardened dockerised apps, networks, blockchain nodes or really anything, but with a difference! TCore runs on each users phone meaning that the data never leaves the device, preserving privacy and increasing security. TCore was born out of the idea that privacy should be a fundamental right for everyone and that our data and our privacy has been commodified for the benefit of big tech. Please check out the platform and let us know what you think. We’ve launched in open beta so you can also experiment with building and app or service to run. https://bit.ly/3UZlQn0 November 14, 2022 at 08:56PM

Show HN: Dlna-cast, a command line tool to cast PC screen to DLNA devices https://bit.ly/3g3rlSW

Show HN: Dlna-cast, a command line tool to cast PC screen to DLNA devices dlna-cat is a cross-platform command-line tool that casts screen and media file to remote DLNA device. dlna-cast uses ffmpeg to capture screen and audio, then convert them into HLS streams which could be served by a simple HTTP server. The HLS url will be send to the selected device via uPnP protocol and then you can watch you screen on the remote device (smart TV, typically). This tool is supposed to be cross-platform but currently I don't have a Linux or MacOS device at hand so it can only run on Windows now. It won't be hard to support other platforms though, as there are no platform specific dependencies. HLS is chosen just because it is easy to implement. But the problem of HLS is its high latency (up to 5-10s or more) so it's definitely not for scenarios that require low latency (presentation for example). But as a trade-off the streaming quality exceeds a lot of software screen-casting solutions (Lebocast for example) that have been tested by myself, which make it pretty good to stream music or video playing from your PC to TV. https://bit.ly/3tuSZvm November 14, 2022 at 06:37PM

Show HN: I created a site to make AI generated photos of your pet Hey HN, I have Goats and a camel as my pets and I recently saw some very cool AI-generated pictures so I decided to build a startup with my 19 y/o brother where you can generate these AI photos for your pet. I thought this could be a cool idea for crazy pet owners who want to create new memories with their pet or to get new photos of a deceased pet. Let me know if you have any feedback or questions! https://bit.ly/3tsnvWF November 14, 2022 at 12:41PM
