Show HN: Bitmatch – ANSI C bit pattern matching https://bit.ly/435eKSi

Show HN: Bitmatch – ANSI C bit pattern matching Hi HN, bitmatch is my new library to do bit pattern matching and data extraction, similar to Regular Expressions. It has no dependencies, libc usage or dynamic memory allocations. I'm sharing the code as Open Source since the question for bit pattern matching came up on Stack Overflow but there aren't that many options for C out there. https://bit.ly/3Wd9Dx9 May 18, 2023 at 12:37PM

Show HN: No-code AI-powered API endpoints https://bit.ly/3OisO6P

Show HN: No-code AI-powered API endpoints Backengine is a tool that evolved from an experiment at my startup for which we wanted to pass structured data to an LLM completion API and receive structured data back. We thought we'd release it as a standalone tool for others who might also find it useful. Backengine lets you create hosted API endpoints for which the endpoint logic is described in natural language as an LLM prompt. The endpoints accept structured requests and return structured responses. Why is this useful? Hosted - no additional infrastructure to maintain. Prompt engineering workspace - you can edit, test and tweak endpoint prompts without touching any code. Instant deployment - created endpoints should be immediately available, and changes to your endpoints are deployed in one click. This is a first and very early release - we'd love for HN to try out Backengine and hear what you think! There's a playground where you can try it out - we're very interested to hear what use-cases people come up with. https://bit.ly/42OPAYf May 17, 2023 at 02:25PM

Show HN: CounterDB, to persist your likes/dislikes counts https://bit.ly/3Bw1JFs

Show HN: CounterDB, to persist your likes/dislikes counts A Solution to durably store your counts. For example number of likes/dislikes on a post. Its time complexity is O(1). Single header only C++ file for storing and retrieving numbers. It does this without increasing the file size, as its not append only DB. Which also means it can be slower on simultaneous writes to an index. Well if your task is just to store likes/dislikes counts, than it must not be much of a problem. As reads are done more than writes for such cases. https://bit.ly/3MaHGl2 May 17, 2023 at 06:50AM

Show HN: Taskspace – Beautiful, simple, and customizable personal task manager https://bit.ly/42FRHOb

Show HN: Taskspace – Beautiful, simple, and customizable personal task manager Hello HN. I built a personal task manager https://bit.ly/3Buv1V4 to experiment with NextJS. Wanted something simple and clean that I could keep open in the browser while I work. Added in task history viewing for easy reference during daily standup and when I need to summarize my completed work throughout the year during performance reviews. Now opening to the public to get feedback and see if folks find the app useful. Wondering If I should invest time building out additional features or if I should continue using it only for my personal workflow. Thanks, Tyler https://bit.ly/3Buv1V4 May 17, 2023 at 04:52AM

Show HN: Legend-State 1.0 – The fastest React state library After almost a year of development and iterating, we just released Legend-State 1.0. It's the fastest React state library and is very easy to use, based on Observables (Signals) with fine-grained reactivity and built-in persistence. I'd love to know what you think, and I'm also happy to answer any general JavaScript performance questions if you want since I've gone very deep into optimizing . https://bit.ly/42CmdYV https://bit.ly/44XTvUh May 16, 2023 at 12:06AM

Show HN: Capillaries: Distributed data processing with Go and Cassandra https://bit.ly/3Id2RBN

Show HN: Capillaries: Distributed data processing with Go and Cassandra I started thinking about this approach after working on a large-scale project for a major financial company where our group developed a distributed in-house data processing solution. On a regular basis, it ingested a few gigabytes of financial data and, within a tight SLA time limit, produced a lot of enriched/aggregated/validated data for a number of customers. Sometimes, source data had errors, so operators with domain knowledge had to verify data validity at some checkpoints, immediately make corrections, and re-run parts of the workflow manually. The solution involved complex web service orchestration, custom database and was very demanding on the infrastructure availability. Capillaries is a built from scratch, open-source Go solution that does just that: ingests data and applies user-defined transforms - Go one-liner expressions, Python formulas, joins, aggregations, denormalization - using Cassandra for intermediate data storage and RabbitMQ for task scheduling. End users just have to provide: - source data in CSV files; - Capillaries script (JSON file) that defines the workflow and the transforms; - Python code that performs complex calculations (only if needed). The whole data processing pipeline can be split into separate runs that can be started independently and re-run by the user if needed. The goal is to build a platform that is tolerant to database and processing node failures, and allows users to focus on data transform logic and data quality control. “Getting started” Docker-based demo calculates ARK funds performance, using EOD holdings and transactions data acquired from public sources. There are also integration tests that use non-financial data. There is a test deploy tool that uses Openstack API for provisioning in the cloud. https://bit.ly/42Xd8d1 May 16, 2023 at 01:13AM
