Show HN: I built haystack – Google for the workplace Hi Yuval here! historicly a security researcher, more recently entered the NLP space! Iv'e started working on haystack recently because I feel modern workplaces are in dire need of a good workplace search product that is free to use just like google. Information is scattered between too many communication channels, we communicate with our peers through slack and email, share docs and specs on confluence, work with tickets on jira, commit code and have discussions on github, not to mention all the .docx, .ppt and .pdf that fly around the organization. Not to mention the fact that existing search featuers just plain suck, if you tried using confluence search you know what I mean, keyword search is terrible. Even when you find relevant looking results, they require you to commit to entering the page, and scroll through to get to the relevant paragraph. What does haystack do? - Enable you to search all your workplace applications from one place. (slack, confluence, notion, jira, github, outlook, gmail, etc...). - Natural language queries ("How to do X”, "Do we support Y", "How do I connect to Z"). - Help you decide if the result is relevant without entering the page. - Go directly: search result->relevant paragraph inside page. (no extra scrolling) - No download, all the magic happens in the browser. - Local browser storage option. (you don't need to trust me with your internal communications to use haystack). - Code references embedded in search results. Example, "How to connect to integ2 machine" on haystack could give you: ssh -i private.pem ubuntu@ec2-integration2.eu-west-1.compute.amazonwes.com aggregated from a slack communication you had a while ago. It was quite a challenge to get it up and running in the browser, but here's what I ended up using: IndexDB browser API for storage, and a fine-tuned TinyBERT-based bi-encoder for indexing, searching. Search result building involves using a fine-tuned t5-small model, there's some nodejs adaptations, and wasm rewrites in rust for performance. Next Steps fine-tuning haystack for lower-end laptops with no dedicated GPU, I'm feeling like it should be running smoothly for lowerend hardware by Feb/March, so that's the current public release date. If you would like to get early access + you have dedicated graphics, there's a button in our landing page, and my email address. I'll be here in the comment section! https://bit.ly/3hPOHg0 December 28, 2022 at 03:09PM

Show HN: GPT Classifies HN Titles https://bit.ly/3vmEVVw

Show HN: GPT Classifies HN Titles With all the "what can GPT do", I went to dabble with it to see if I could do something that plays to its strengths rather than just speculating about "would it be good at that?" https://bit.ly/3WQ0ysW The basis for the prompt is: Classify following titles into one or more of {US Politics}, {World Politics}, {Technology}, {Security}, {Current Events}, {Boasting}, {Curiosity}, {Unknown} The results from the front page as I type this: 34152137 Technology: Lite XL: A lightweight text editor written in C and Lua 34151880 Curiosity: Hydrochloric acid is more complicated than you think 34156235 World Politics, Current Events: Apple Japan hit with $98M in back taxes for missing duty-free abuses 34152333 Technology: The Architecture of the Lisa Personal Computer (1984) [pdf] 34151951 Curiosity: The Zen anti-interpretation of quantum mechanics (2021) 34155009 Unknown: Added 49 volumes of Arkansas, Mississippi, and Tennessee law 34145665 Technology: FEA Solver that doesn't need defeaturing 34151107 World Politics, Current Events: Amazon packages burn in India, final stop in broken recycling system 34155783 Technology: Your Cellphone Will Be a Satphone 34154778 World Politics, Current Events: Vandals destroy 30k-year-old indigenous cave drawings in Australia 34146397 Boasting: Ask HN: Elevator Pitch for a Polymath? 34151708 Technology: All About USB-C: Illegal Adapters 34149340 World Politics, Current Events: Southwest cancels 5,400 flights in less than 48 hours 34154896 Technology: Beaker Browser is now archived 34145811 Technology: Run Third-Party Scripts from a Web Worker 34152978 World Politics, Current Events: When Algorithms Rule, Values Can Wither 34152981 Security: Experian Vulnerability Shows Any Report with just SSN, DOB, ADR 34151382 World Politics, Security, Current Events: US Government demands direct police access to European biometric data [pdf] 34143272 Curiosity: Archaeologists devise a better clock for Biblical times 34149804 Technology: Using eBPF and predefined inspections to minimize “observability tax” 34155875 US Politics: Ventura Issues 34152100 Technology: Anki SRS Algorithm : Spaced repetition explained with code 34154406 Technology: How RISC-V Timer Interrupts Work 34146493 Curiosity: Old-school computing: when your lab PC is ancient (2021) 34152369 Technology: BorgBackup: Deduplicating archiver with compression and encryption 34147825 Technology: Show HN: Self-hosted CMS on serverless Cloudflare 34153648 Boasting: Brooklyn Bar Menu Generator (2015) 34117429 Unknown: “Blue Light” creating capacity for nothing (2007) 34149239 Curiosity: Visually symmetric words There are certainly some that one could argue would be different though I think its fairly correct based on titles alone. I'll also note that there are some different results when I was working in a smaller sample size - the entry "Added 49 volumes of Arkansas, Mississippi, and Tennessee law" was classified as "US politics, Current Events" rather than "Unknown". I do want to note that isn't that bad. Running this: "prompt_tokens":560,"completion_tokens":222,"total_tokens":782 So, this is just a hair under $0.02 to do. Thinking about it, some cleanup can be done by removing the year and media type which could trim a few tokens off the request. December 28, 2022 at 03:00AM

Show HN: Merry Sky, Dark Sky replacement and merry-timeline open source lib https://bit.ly/3I5M6sM

Show HN: Merry Sky, Dark Sky replacement and merry-timeline open source lib Hello HN, This is a website I worked on during the holidays to fill the void of the upcoming dark sky shutdown. For me, the precipitation timeline was a view I was heavily relying on for everyday activities and planning. I had not found any replacement from the various weather apps. When I found pirateweather.net as a backend API, it gave me the motivation to put the pieces together and get back the experience I enjoyed. I then added more functionalities that I think was missing from the website such as a weekly chart view. I've been using the website reliably over christmas holidays. Hope you enjoy it too! Also I open sourced the visual component for drawing the precipitation timeline and you can use it for drawing weather information or any other hourly activities really https://bit.ly/3C0ASCb Interested in your feedback! https://bit.ly/3WuFNmZ December 28, 2022 at 12:14AM

Show HN: I built a simple CLI helper integrating with GPT-3 https://bit.ly/3I4M8kA

Show HN: I built a simple CLI helper integrating with GPT-3 Hi all! I don’t think CHATGPT has gone unnoticed by anyone here on Hackernews. I’ve myself played around a bit with it, but felt it was annoying to always have to log into their GUI to ask the questions. To scratch my own itch and at the same time learn more about how to write my own command line interface, I created 'askai'. 'askai' is a simple CLI integration with OpenAI’s GPT3 models. I’ve primarily used it to get quick answers to technical questions, like: > askai "How to mock user input when writing a Python pytest test?" > askai "How do I remove a conda environment?" As I've found it quite helpful, I decided to spend some time to package it in a nicer way to share it with all of you. I've also uploaded it to PyPI to simplify the installation process. 'askai' enables you to: * Ask questions and get the answers straight into your terminal * Configure which model and model parameters you want to use * Overwrite saved configurations when you ask questions Currently, it only supports OpenAI’s models, but my plan is to integrate more endpoints as soon as new capable NLP endpoints are popping up. I hope some of you find it useful :) https://bit.ly/3PSy2F3 December 27, 2022 at 05:29PM

Show HN: Eleven – open-source alternative to Codespaces https://bit.ly/3Glv2hp

Show HN: Eleven – open-source alternative to Codespaces Hey HN, Eleven is the second project that I've built to learn Go. It lets you create a code sandbox in your cloud provider account easily. What's a "code sandbox"? Just a VM, running in your cloud provider account, with some runtimes pre-installed, your repositories cloned, a way to connect to it with your preferred editor (or via SSH) and a way to serve your apps easily via HTTP (with automatic HTTPS). You could use it to deploy your app, as a remote development environment or even to test some code. It's up to you. For example, to deploy a Node.JS app: $ eleven aws init hello-world --runtimes node@18.7.0 --repositories eleven-sh/hello-world > Success! The sandbox "hello-world" was initialized. $ ssh eleven/hello-world forever node index.js > Forever: command started. Run "forever stop" in current path to stop. $ eleven aws serve hello-world 8000 --as hello.eleven.sh > Success! The port "8000" is now reachable at: https://bit.ly/3sYF9kp $ curl https://bit.ly/3sYF9kp > Hello World Still learning Go by the way, so I'm open to any suggestions to improve. https://bit.ly/3DspXBb December 26, 2022 at 11:27PM

Show HN: TapTab – Tab switching web extension for Safari https://bit.ly/3WLdGjl

Show HN: TapTab – Tab switching web extension for Safari I like the tab-switching behaviour in Chrome/Firefox and wanted Safari to have something similar. Another wish of mine was for it to be a web extension that feels native to the browser vs an app extension that looks out of place. I posted a while back on HN to see if other people feel the same and the response was very positive : https://bit.ly/3Fi4vRe Say hello to TapTab : https://apple.co/3vggVmY... TapTab feels right at home in Safari and is loaded with features to improve how you interact with tabs. You no longer have to miss the native tab-switching functionality that you love in Chrome/Firefox. I launched the app a few days ago, and the response has been great. Some of the features that users have been loving : - Keep your hands at the keyboard: navigate all tabs without your hands leaving the keyboard. - Fuzzy Search: Search through your tab titles and URLs at lightning speed. - Switch to previous tab: Comes with a handy shortcut to go back to the previous tab. Finally! - Dark Mode: The extension feels right at home in Safari. - Multi-Window support - Pin/Mute/Close tabs right from the extension. The app is written in ReactJS (apart from the very minuscule bit of Swift you have to write for using it as an extension in Safari) and uses Tailwind for design. If you are one of the dozen people like me who use Safari, let me know how you find it. I would love to hear if there are any features that would make it a better fit for you. I have a few things on my radar gathered from talking to users like an iPad version, custom shortcuts, etc. If you find the extension useful I would love it if you vote for it on Product Hunt to get this in front of a few more eyeballs : https://bit.ly/3YKT8cq Thank you! https://bit.ly/3vj3hj7 December 24, 2022 at 02:05AM
