Show HN: Thank You, Hacker News https://bit.ly/3MQzhDo

Show HN: Thank You, Hacker News I was just browsing through the "Who got hired?" thread (https://bit.ly/43AM58p) and it caused me to think about all of the things that happened in my real life due to HN. In 2012 I was hired from a post in the "Who's Hiring" thread that turned out to be a complete life and career transformation. It was at a very famous company that everyone here has heard of and used. They were pre-IPO and I got to be a "part" of that IPO. It exposed me to people smarter than I had ever met, and allowed me to learn from them. It allowed me a path into "big tech" that I did not otherwise have, and has made a rather enormous difference in my net worth over the last decade+. And also, I have hired 3 other people from those threads into a great company with great pay, great support, great people...and they've all been wonderful hires. And also, HN is the reason I live in the house I do today. My wife and I bought a fixer-upper in our dream neighborhood that turned out to be a teardown. I was getting ready to walk away and sell at a loss, but via HN ended up meeting a custom home builder in my area who turned out to be amazing and built us our home, which we moved into in 2020. Anyway, just a shoutout and a thanks to this site and this community. It's more than just an online forum for me :) June 2, 2023 at 11:49AM

Show HN: JuxtaCode – native Git diff tool for macOS https://bit.ly/3oLWWNp

Show HN: JuxtaCode – native Git diff tool for macOS I wanted to make a native Git diff tool that works "stand-alone" in the sense that you just need to point it at a repository and then you can select commits to compare and open files in a 3-way-merge tool. I've been finding it useful to have one app I can quickly switch to for comparing branches and sorting out merge conflicts. https://bit.ly/3IWkdD9 June 2, 2023 at 01:22AM

Show HN: Minutes – Save up to 20% of salespeople's time https://bit.ly/45I8xgX

Show HN: Minutes – Save up to 20% of salespeople's time Hey everyone, I wanted to share something I've been working on that I think could be really helpful for sales teams. Minutes is a startup that utilizes OpenAI technology to automate the transcription and summarization of sales calls. What Minutes is doing can be described in 3 steps: 1. Taking your audio or video and transcribing it to text 2. Taking the most important and relevant information and creating a summary, including key points and the next tasks 3. Creating a follow-up email, including the summary points and next steps Story behind it: As an entrepreneur who handles sales and marketing, I noticed a common challenge: the amount of time managers spend on creating call summaries and writing follow-up emails. Not only is it time-consuming, but it's also often a hassle to ensure accuracy. To tackle this issue, I decided to delve deeper and spoke with several sales directors. Turns out, this problem is widespread, and even salespeople themselves dislike the administrative burden it brings. Inspired by these insights, I created Minutes. Call to action: Here's where you come in. Sign up for Minutes using the code "minutes_alpha," and you'll receive 60 free transcription minutes to play with the service. I genuinely value your feedback and insights, as they will help us refine Minutes and tailor it to the specific needs of sales teams everywhere. Thank you for your support, and I'm eagerly looking forward to hearing your thoughts. Warm regards, Bogdan, founder of Minutes https://bit.ly/3qm57Ay June 1, 2023 at 03:07PM

Show HN: Secure ChatGPT – a safer way to interact with generative AI https://bit.ly/3ON6an5

Show HN: Secure ChatGPT – a safer way to interact with generative AI Hi HN, I’m the founder of Pangea. We’ve built a developer platform where you can easily add security to your code through a simple set of APIs - features like authentication, secrets management, audit logging, redaction of PII, restricting embargoed countries, known threat actor intelligence, etc. With the ChatGPT and LLM explosion, we thought of ways to reduce the risk of both the inputs and outputs from these services. Our NextJS sample app adds a security layer on top of ChatGPT with various security services that you can implement quickly. It’s basically a front end to the OpenAI API that you can deploy which does a few security-related things: - AuthN - it provides authentication to track who inputs what and when - Redact - provides PII redaction with detection of over 40 different types of sensitive information - Secure Audit Log - logs the user, cleansed prompt, and model to a secure tamper-proof audit trail - Sends the cleansed prompt to the OpenAI API and receives the response - Domain Intel - Performs a Domain Reputation lookup on any domain names in the response - URL Intel - Performs a URL Reputation lookup on any URLs in the response - Defangs any malicious domains or URLs found in the response - On closing your session, the history of prompts disappears Storing what users have prompted allows you to better train your model, feed it more relevant information, and keep an audit log of the history. The Secure Audit Log service can store the user inputs in a secure log so that you can track who did what and when. The final layer of defense is a Domain Intel service to detect and neutralize the malicious URLs and domain names in the OpenAI API's response. The proof-of-concept app is open-source on GitHub. Visit our repo https://bit.ly/42lScMd and deploy the app with a simple NPX command. We’d love your feedback. -Oliver https://bit.ly/42lScMd June 1, 2023 at 06:49PM

Show HN: Git credential helper using OAuth in browser https://bit.ly/3N52QTd

Show HN: Git credential helper using OAuth in browser I authenticate to many Git hosts from many machines and got tired of generating and copying personal access tokens. With credential helper git-credential-oauth, there are no personal access tokens or SSH keys to configure. Instead you authenticate in browser using OAuth. Git Credential Manager (included with Git for Windows) has a similar feature but it's awkward for Linux users to install. git-credential-oauth is cross platform and packaged in many Linux distributions. https://bit.ly/43CXYu0 June 1, 2023 at 07:45AM

Show HN: Micro Chat – Private group chat https://bit.ly/43BsLXQ

Show HN: Micro Chat – Private group chat Hey all I'm Asim. I'm an engineer who's been hacking on an open source project called Micro for the past eight years ( https://bit.ly/3oJsQtN ). In that time I've done a lot of things, all Dev related but ultimately most of my career was spent working on platforms for consumer products. After many attempts I've decided the path forward is to focus on building something that solves my own problem. Micro Chat is a solution to some of the social media problems I've been having. What I've been looking for most of my life is a community. A place to belong. I scoured the internet for that with strangers. But I think that's wrong. The public forums are also the wrong place to find that connection. What we need to do is focus on smaller communities starting with real connections. We need to strip away a lot of the addictive behaviours and issues created by social media. I think things like hackernews are great because it's very simple text based, with no notification and centers around conversations about topics of interest. I think that's how group chat should also be. The difference here is, I want a place to build small private communities e.g micro communities. Most real groups lose their value beyond a certain size. For me that's around 20 people. As an introvert I really care about strong connections with a handful of people. Unfortunately those real world connections are now spread globally as people moved away and while we have private slacks or WhatsApp grojps to stay in touch it just feels like the wrong setup for that. If anything I want to consolidate it into one place. Anyway I'm sharing this now to get some feedback. I think the tech and the product will evolve but only by finding out if others feel the same. https://bit.ly/3NePAvv https://bit.ly/3NePAvv May 31, 2023 at 08:55AM

Show HN: Magma – Multiplayer AI for Artists https://bit.ly/3MPjoxk

Show HN: Magma – Multiplayer AI for Artists Hello HN community! I’m one of the founders of Magma, a multiplayer art platform. You might recall our earlier post ( https://bit.ly/3wRyawY ), and today we’re sharing a significant update with our artist-focused, multiplayer AI assistant, a first in the realm of collaborative creative tools. Hope you’ll like it! See how it works in this YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZESJfjwxLjk . For in-depth understanding, here’s our documentation ( https://bit.ly/3MPjq8q ) and our AI manifesto ( https://bit.ly/3MPjqVY ) which is a guiding document for us. We're inviting you to get hands-on with this new feature. Join any of these canvases (up to 50 live contributors each): https://bit.ly/3WJGEkT , https://bit.ly/3MCsfCe , https://bit.ly/3oHm73J , https://bit.ly/3MPjg0O , https://bit.ly/3WGKwms , https://bit.ly/3N6mMFp , https://bit.ly/3oMug6R , https://bit.ly/3MPjtkC , https://bit.ly/3IPmEHx , https://bit.ly/3MHw894 . All of these canvases have extra feature flags enabled but if you’d like to go beyond them, feel free to join our beta community https://bit.ly/3INUr40 Our artist-first approach is rooted in our belief that human creativity should remain the heart of artistry. With our AI handling routine tasks, artists can focus on true creativity. Importantly, our AI preserves artists' copyright as it provides a clear distinction between human-generated and AI-generated content. Beyond just art, Magma is a powerful tool for game dev and animation, offering powerful design & review tools for all stages of the creative process. Our Slack/GDrive-like workspaces (we call them Artspaces) expose API and even shell tools. One can even render any artwork in the terminal. :) Technically speaking, our collaborative drawing engine is powered by Typescript, Node.JS, WebGL, with a hint of WebAssembly for hand-optimized performance that even Chromebooks can handle. The backend also leverages a high performance Typescript Deepkit Framework https://bit.ly/3IPmPCH Our AI assistant runs on a worker-based architecture akin to Gitlab CI workers, currently leveraging Stable Diffusion 2.1. Future developments will allow connecting your own AI worker, training custom models within Magma, and plugging in API keys from other AI backends. Feedback, questions, thoughts? Let's discuss! Happy creating with a helping hand of AI! P.S. A shout-out to the HN community, our last post here helped us connect with an amazing technical angel investor who has made significant contributions. Looking forward to more such productive connections! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZESJfjwxLjk May 31, 2023 at 02:49PM

Show HN: Find the sickest motorcycle rides in your area with Peg Scraper Dear HN, This is a little weekend project I put together for a good friend of mine who loves to ride. It shows you the best, twistiest roads in your area and then randomly selects a few of them until you see a "loop" that you like—then it shoots you straight to Google Maps with the route pre-loaded. Thought I would drop it here because why not. https://bit.ly/3N6QjPf May 31, 2023 at 02:02PM
