Show HN: Nero Burning ROM X Muse – The Burning Art of CD Hi HN, Have you heard of Nero Burning ROM? It was named after 'the Great Fire of Rome' as a pun. We are thrilled to announce that we're back with an AI-powered new product called 'Nero Muse' – a CD/Album cover generator. It's the great fire of virtuality now. :) https://bit.ly/489sKOf September 8, 2023 at 02:56AM

Show HN: HackYourNews – AI summaries of the top HN stories https://bit.ly/3PvyYkc

Show HN: HackYourNews – AI summaries of the top HN stories Hey there HN! I wanted to share a pet project of mine. I built HackYourNews [1] to scratch a personal itch: Knowing which stories to focus on while browsing aimlessly (though there is a certain joy in that, as well!) HackYourNews uses OpenAI's gpt-3.5-turbo to summarize the destination article as well as the comments section. Summarization of the article is always cached, while summaries of the comments are regenerated if the comments count is >10% (or >10 comments) different. While I styled the homepage to welcome HNers, my preferred view is the Mobile view, accessed from the navbar. This no-frills view honors OS-level dark mode and is easy to skim on any device. Tried to keep the site minimal. The only JS is Cloudflare's privacy-preserving analytics [2], just to gauge interest. This is the first time I'm releasing something to the wild. Hope you find this useful! The frontend is pure HTML+CSS. The backend is Python with the excellent Microsoft Guidance [3] library to interface to OpenAI's API.

Show HN: Curated custom search engine portal https://bit.ly/44L1S45

Show HN: Curated custom search engine portal Hey friends, a little background - A friend of mine who’s also a newsletter writer once told me that when he’s interested in certain topic he would like to know the opinion of some of his favorite writers on the same topic. He would use Google to search something like discomfort site:sive.rs, and then expand his search across various authors he admires. It turns out that Google’s programmable search engine does exactly that. By simply adding a few websites (much like subscribing to newsletters or RSS feeds), we can craft a search engine tailored for our specific needs. I think that's a great idea - more signal and less noise. So I built a portal to facilitate sharing personal curations https://bit.ly/3L9umgL . Thanks for reading, lemme know what you think :D https://bit.ly/3L9umgL September 7, 2023 at 06:49AM

Show HN: uDSV.js – A faster CSV parser https://bit.ly/3PsrLAf

Show HN: uDSV.js – A faster CSV parser Hey folks! I know CSV parsers (especially in JS) aren't terribly exciting and someone writes a "better" one every week. I'm in the middle of my parental leave, and this was a project that came out of me looking for the fastest/smallest CSV parser. It all started so innocently, and then turned into a benchmark-validation-athon; the library itself took ~2 weeks to write, but the performance comparisons took another ~4 weeks (on and off). The benchmarks were a huge effort, but I think they are the most thorough to date, both in breadth and in depth, so hopefully you find them useful: https://bit.ly/3rcacfk Let me know if you have specific concerns / questions / improvements :) cheers!

Show HN: Trellis – open-source Python framework to build DAG-based LLM workflows https://bit.ly/44Hheq8

Show HN: Trellis – open-source Python framework to build DAG-based LLM workflows Hey HN! Trellis is an open-source framework for programmatically orchestrating LLM workflows as Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs) in Python. My friend and I started working on this a few weeks ago after we tried building applications using mainstream LLM frameworks, and faced all the common complaints (too abstracted, hard to customize, bad docs/support). After talking to a few other people building with LLMs, we also noticed that these frameworks were not inherently built to support DAG-based LLM workflows. We designed Trellis to be as minimal and flat as possible, so developers can have lower level control over their DAGs. Trellis is composed of only three abstractions: Node, DAG, and LLM. Node: the atomic unit of Trellis. Nodes are chained together to form a DAG. Node is an abstract class with only one method required to implement. DAG: a directed acyclic graph of Nodes. It is the primary abstraction for orchestrating LLM workflows. When you add edges between Nodes, you can specify a transformation function to reuse Nodes and connect any two Nodes. Trellis verifies the data flowing between Nodes in a DAG to ensure the flow of data is validated. LLM: a wrapper around a large language model with simple catches for common OpenAI errors. Currently, the only provider that Trellis supports is OpenAI. Check out our docs if this sounds interesting: https://bit.ly/3EsVio1... We'd love it if you tried hacking with it and give us any feedback you have! :) https://bit.ly/3sHq4XJ September 6, 2023 at 03:04AM

Show HN: Keep – GitHub Actions for your monitoring tools https://bit.ly/48e39DV

Show HN: Keep – GitHub Actions for your monitoring tools Hi Hacker News! Shahar and Tal from Keep here. A few months ago, we introduced here at HN ( https://bit.ly/3EcwLE1 ) Keep as an “open source alerting CLI” and got some interesting feedback - mainly around UI, automation, and supporting more tools. We were VERY early back then, and we understood that although the current DX around creating alerts is not great, it's not that critical and developers don’t need another tool just for that. But we did find something else. While talking to developers and devops, we found that a lot of companies use many tools that generate alerts - from Cloudwatch, Prometheus, Grafana, and Datadog to tools such as Zabbix or Nagios. We definitely agree consolidation in the observability space is a real thing, but while talking to those companies we feel that there are still real use cases for having more than one tool (and for example, according to Grafana’s 2023 observability survey, 52% of the companies uses more than 6 observability tools https://bit.ly/47Ysbqh ). So we that in mind, we rebuilt Keep with a simple mindset: (1) Integrate with every tool that triggers alerts - it can be either pushing alerts to Keep via webhooks or routing policies or Keep to pull alerts via the tools API. (2) Create a simple abstraction layer to run workflows on top of these alerts. (3) Maintain a great developer experience - open source, API-first, workflows as code and generally having a developer mindset while building Keep. During the time we rebuilt Keep, Datadog released their workflow automation tool ( https://bit.ly/3L75FBC ) which led us to the understanding that's exactly what we solve - but for everyone who uses tools other than Datadog. A short demo of Keep with a simple use case: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPMRCZM8ZYg You can try it yourself by signing into https://bit.ly/3Nipgk6 Like always - we invite you to try Keep and we are eager to hear any feedback. https://bit.ly/3IrvGuF September 4, 2023 at 04:15PM

Show HN: Recognize license plates using fine-tuned yolov8, OCR and IP camera https://bit.ly/46fACfp

Show HN: Recognize license plates using fine-tuned yolov8, OCR and IP camera Hey, just a work related project I made, which could be open sourced :D If you're looking for an example on how to use/fine-tune yolov8, I feel like taking a look at this repo and reading the README could help you get up to speed (also linked some nice refs)! This is actually a full rewrite of a proprietary project I made (and documented on my site) like a year ago, will do some finishing touches (write blog post about it, mark the old version deprecated, record a tutorial on how to set it up on an Ubuntu server, etc, etc) in the following month, but felt like sharing it now, cuz I consider it done The only proprietary part is the client, which receives the images and does stuff with db (has to interact with internal APIs, so there's no reason to make it oss anyways). Also, the client contains only the business logic, all of the fun ai/web server stuff is fully open under AGPL-3.0 (and an example client without the business logic is available ... in rust btw xdd). https://bit.ly/3qYiJme September 4, 2023 at 08:56PM
