Show HN: ACOS: Build and share competitive turn-based browser games Hi everyone, This is a little tech demo I've been working on the past 2 years. It's been up for 1 year now, and has since had a few major updates. I have a soft spot for games with ranking systems, and I wanted an easy way for developers to create games with the competitive element abstracted away. The current games are built with ReactJS, so it's pretty easy to onboard if you are a web developer. All games developed for ACOS come with these features: - Real-time turn-based for browser - Simulator for game development - Client / Server architecture - Easy multiplayer with simple JSON game state update - Single player, Team-based, Battle Royale, and Free-for-all games supported - Matchmaking for Rank / Casual play - Room Scoreboard - Game Replays of every match - Error Logs - Global Rankings - Global Top Scores - GitHub Integration with acosgames organization - Discord Integration for matchmaking / game events - Simple deployment and version management It's a ridiculous endeavor, but I'd like to invite the world to my playground and help me drive features and technology forward. I may allow AI bot battles in the future against any of the hosted games, but I will prioritize based on the will of the people.

Show HN: Codeium: Free Copilot alternative that works in Jupyter notebooks https://bit.ly/3vJJjhD

Show HN: Codeium: Free Copilot alternative that works in Jupyter notebooks I'm Varun from the Codeium team. We are super excited to bring free AI-powered code autocomplete to standalone Jupyter notebooks, a dev environment that is currently underserved by existing solutions. And in the spirit of Show HN, we have a playground version for anyone to try the tech in the browser without any installation (linked in the blog post)! https://bit.ly/3IrqQ0Z January 6, 2023 at 09:49PM

Show HN: Track and share your technical interview prep progress https://bit.ly/3jRwBKZ

Show HN: Track and share your technical interview prep progress A few friends and I just launched a web app to help people prepare for technical SWE/SDE internship interviews! We want to make it easier for people to prepare for interviews, especially for some of the largest tech companies. Core features include easy progress tracking, one-click link sharing, company-specific lists, and topic & difficulty-wise problem filtering. The problem list isn’t exhaustive and we are still looking for more open-source data to make our list more extensive. We want to hear about the bugs you find as this is the beta version. If you have any improvements to suggest, we are all ears! Our code is also completely open-source!

Show HN: Point Cloud Utils – A Python library for 3D point clouds and meshes https://bit.ly/3iikztC

Show HN: Point Cloud Utils – A Python library for 3D point clouds and meshes This is a utility library I slowly built up during my PhD and has become my swiss army knife for processing 3D data. It's super easy to install (only depends on NumPy and SciPy). The goal of the library to have an extremely simple API for geometry processing which uses NumPy arrays as a core data structure (so it can be dropped into whatever numerical codebase you're working with). Most of the library is written in C++ using a custom binding framework ( https://bit.ly/3iikAha ) that I wrote which avoids copies when converting NumPy arrays to Eigen Matrix types. Happy to answer any questions you might have about it and I hope Point Cloud Utils is useful to you! https://bit.ly/3iikBBK January 5, 2023 at 05:02PM

Show HN: Digital Puzzles for Programmers https://bit.ly/3vCkXpU

Show HN: Digital Puzzles for Programmers I built a service that generates digital puzzles. It's like an escape room: you get a clue that leads you to another clue, and at the end of the chain you get to a prize (secret message). It's very similar to CTFs, but less focused on security aspects. Here's an example of a puzzle: https://bit.ly/3Gfo0t0 https://bit.ly/3VGEOin January 3, 2023 at 10:16PM
