Show HN: Alinor the Platform for Advanced Materials https://bit.ly/42AqoVD

Show HN: Alinor the Platform for Advanced Materials Hi YC, Tarek here, CTO and Co-Founder at Alinor. We just released our Omni update, the biggest one yet: https://bit.ly/3FKkRSL Alinor is an end-to-end platform for advanced materials. I have often found that when I say those words, is that I have to explain what advanced materials are. But I will skip that for this audience. Perhaps what you didn't know is that this is a $2 trillion industry, but over 99% of it remains offline. Alinor enables, scientists, engineers, and researchers to focus on what they do best: solving the world's biggest problems, by working on the cutting edge of materials and physical science. While we focus on selling their martials and enabling them to reach wider adaption. Alinor covers everything from initial inquiry to final invoice and everything in between. We do believe that nearly all problems the world is facing can be solved by advanced materials. Happy to answer any questions you might have, including what are advanced materials, just don't ask me to explain it in Arabic. Or maybe do that, I need to practice it more anyways! https://bit.ly/40AT2V1 March 24, 2023 at 09:07AM

Show HN: Unity AI Asset Generation https://bit.ly/40ajEwj

Show HN: Unity AI Asset Generation Hello HN - like a lot of programmers, I am really excited by everything going on with ChatGPT/DALL-E. I am a game developer by trade, and I think there is a lot of potential to change workflows for game development. I was very inspired by Keijiro Takahashi's prototypes for asset generation using OpenAI within Unity, so I tried to make a more generic means of generating text and image assets within the Unity Editor using OpenAI's APIs. I've been surprised by the success so far - it definitely has it's limits, but I think we have just begun to scratch the surface of the potential here. https://bit.ly/3LP0W90 March 24, 2023 at 07:29AM

Show HN: Datapane – A new way to build reports, dashboards, and apps in Python https://bit.ly/3n9n2sp

Show HN: Datapane – A new way to build reports, dashboards, and apps in Python Hello HN! We’re Leo and Mandeep, founders of Datapane ( https://bit.ly/3JDfcPq ). We're building a way to create reports, dashboards, and web apps from your existing data using Python. Think of it as a combination of React and htmx, specifically designed for the Python data stack. Our GitHub is https://bit.ly/3Z9tLQn and you can try building a report or app in ~2 minutes on Codespaces: https://bit.ly/40vuRHu We started building Datapane at our previous start-up, where we struggled to deliver ML model results to clients. Much to our surprise, the data science took less time than repeatedly creating reports by copying and pasting plots into PowerPoint decks. It seemed absurd that we had to switch to PowerPoint or legacy BI tools like Tableau to share, and our initial goal was to programmatically generate reports using the datasets and plots we had in Python. To enable this, we started hacking on a Python-based UI framework for constructing HTML views from data-centric blocks – like plots, data tables, and layout components. You can export these to standalone HTML files, or host them as a web app on somewhere like GitHub Pages or Fly.io. We recently also added the ability to connect Python functions to forms and front-end events so you can build web apps which run backend code. We handle the entire network and RPC layer, so you only need to write plain Python functions that take parameters and return other blocks. You can check out an example of the code to create a simple app: https://bit.ly/3Zaqroj... Datapane’s philosophy is pretty different from other products in the space. We wanted to keep things simple, but avoid the footguns our users faced with frameworks like Streamlit, where the reactive/network-aware model was hard to move beyond an MVP or POC. For backend interactivity, we believe the original web got a lot right, and unlike reactive models which rely on websockets, Datapane is unashamedly request/response. This takes inspiration from HTTP and our own experiences with htmx, which offers an elegant way to add interactivity to HTML. Under the hood, we actually compile down to a (gasp!) XML-based hypermedia format, akin to HTML, but tailored specifically for constructing data UIs. The result is that not every change in your app requires a server round trip, as much of it can be pre rendered and most interactivity happens on the client-side. In addition to improving performance, this also makes running in production become 10x simpler. This separation between the view and backend compute also makes Datapane modular. If our app server isn’t a good fit for your use-case, serve Datapane views from the web-framework of your choice (we’ve been hacking on serving views from Django). Want to compute blocks from inside Airflow or generate them on a schedule or from a webhook? Computation can happen out of band of the UI. You can even build and host apps from inside of Jupyter, where you can preview blocks live and convert notebook cells to blocks in your view. We currently offer a hosting platform on https://bit.ly/3JDfcPq for sharing reports publicly (free) or with your team (paid), and will be adding serverless app hosting support to it in the next few weeks. Our ultimate goal is to create an open-source toolkit for building data products across the entire stack – from reports, to dashboards, to full-stack apps – all using 100% Python. You can see a few we’ve built already in our gallery: https://bit.ly/40wD3ag We’d love to hear your feedback. Thanks! March 23, 2023 at 02:50PM

Show HN: Tripnotes.ai: Intelligent Travel Planner https://bit.ly/3FLTO9t

Show HN: Tripnotes.ai: Intelligent Travel Planner Hey HN, We're excited to announce the public beta preview of Tripnotes, an intelligent travel planner that mixes a custom recommendation engine, our own data, and a bit of GPT to help you find the right places to go while traveling. Our team has been working hard on this project for 6 months, and we're excited to finally share it with the HN community. With Tripnotes, you can keep track of all your notes about travel when planning to visit a city. Paste in article URLs, videos, emails, text messages, any other text, and if you need some help with research, ask our Concierge which will provide useful recommendations and itineraries for the city in question - with a fallback to GPT for things we didn't quite understand. If you're not ready to dive right in, here are a few short highlight videos: https://twitter.com/matthewer/status/1619047755271536640 https://twitter.com/matthewer/status/1621172173598756864 https://twitter.com/matthewer/status/1623703548545445890 https://twitter.com/matthewer/status/1638010661694234625 All the places by Tripnotes are from our own database, but we rely upon GPT to understand the intent of the incoming prompts, as well as to help with the prose in our response to ensure the place descriptions fit what's being asked for. Since we tweeted about our preview release on Monday, we've had over 15,000 people come and try at least one prompt, with over 40,000 unique notes generated from prompts about cities all over the world. We'd love for you to give Tripnotes a try and let us know what you think. The "unauthed" version is open to everyone. If you're interested in using the full version, please join our waitlist. The full version maintains a history of your notes and allows you to edit the text and auto-highlights any text you write/paste in on the fly, which can be useful for pasting recommendations from friends (say via SMS or Email) and having them auto-highlighted and mapped. You can also paste in links from articles, websites, blogs, even Tiktok or Youtube. We scrape those urls, gather the list of places that are mentioned, and then show them on the map along side the rest of your note. We'd love to hear your thoughts and feedback, so please feel free to leave a comment or reach out to us directly. Thanks for your support! https://bit.ly/3FN0kNj March 23, 2023 at 04:35PM

Show HN: OpenTheo – Transcribed and searchable Bible teaching with Whisper.cpp https://bit.ly/3lxlAjf

Show HN: OpenTheo – Transcribed and searchable Bible teaching with Whisper.cpp Hey all! I just launched OpenTheo, a free collection of transcribed Bible teachings and other Christian material. So far, I've transcribed over 10,000 hours of content for the first time, including teachings from Steve Gregg, Tim Keller, Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones, and more. Transcripts are fully interactive. You can click on any words in the transcript to instantly start playing the audio at that point in time. The currently playing portion of the transcript is also underlined to make it easier to follow along. Transcripts are produced using ggerganov's Whisper.cpp ( https://bit.ly/3urYdbP ). None of this work would have been possible without the Whisper model and ggerganov's work to enable it to run on CPUs. The content of transcripts are indexed and searchable via the site search (powered by Meilisearch - https://bit.ly/42zKj75 ), making it easy to find content on specific topics or that discuss specific of the Bible. Questions/comments are welcome! https://bit.ly/3nbEjRW March 22, 2023 at 01:29AM
