Show HN: MiniSearch, a minimalist search engine with integrated browser-based AI https://bit.ly/46MjRIP

Show HN: MiniSearch, a minimalist search engine with integrated browser-based AI Hey everyone! I’m excited to announce the release of my last project, MiniSearch. I admire Perplexity.ai, Phind.com, You.com, Bing, Bard and all these search engines integrated with AI chatbots. And as a curious developer, I took the chance and created my own version. Using Web-LLM and Transformers.js to provide browser-based text-generation models on desktop and mobile, I built a minimalist self-hosted search app on which an AI analyses the results, comments on them and responds to your query summarising the info. In the backend, it still queries a real search engine, but besides that, there's no other remote connection happening. For running in the browser and on mobiles, lightweight models are required, so we can't expect them to give stellar answers, but there are a few advantages of using this over the services as mentioned earlier: - Availability: The AI will always be available and respond with the maximum available speed from the device. - Privacy: Besides the queries that go anonymously to the actual search engine, nothing else leaves your device. - No ads/trackers: Get the relevant links clean and fast without being tracked. - Customization: As it's open-source, you can fork it and re-style it any way you want. You can get started with MiniSearch by cloning the repository from GitHub ( https://bit.ly/3PYZJfE ) and running it locally or by using it online on this HugginFace Space: https://bit.ly/3PZDV3K (Alternative Space address: https://bit.ly/3POznwM ) You can even set it as your browser's address-bar search engine using the query pattern ` https://bit.ly/3s0zAoN ` (where your query replaces %s). At the moment of this writing, the app is using TinyLlama and LaMini-Flan-T5 models, but there's an option to try to use larger models like Mistral 7B (not recommended, though, as it could be slow and break the fast-search experience). That's what I had to share. Thanks for reading! Your feedback means the world to me! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or suggestions or want to learn more. https://bit.ly/3POznwM October 15, 2023 at 01:50AM

Show HN: Firefox add-on to open YouTube videos in alternative front ends https://bit.ly/3M2z8gN

Show HN: Firefox add-on to open YouTube videos in alternative front ends YouTube started blocking me because I use an adblocker. So I made this simple Firefox Add-On (haven't made it cross-browser yet, contributions welcome!) to open videos in alternative front-ends (piped.video by default). Default keybinding: Alt+J to reopen current page in the configured frontend. Shift+Click to open any video in a new tab in the configured frontend. You can change the default frontend to something else if you like. https://bit.ly/3FicaOJ October 14, 2023 at 05:22PM

Show HN: Tomoropomodoro – Pomodoro for Coffee Shops https://bit.ly/3ZQNhTI

Show HN: Tomoropomodoro – Pomodoro for Coffee Shops For sure we all have used some kind of productivity apps and most of those are not that effective. I see pomodoro apps as some kind of fake concept with no real impact on my productivity, it doesn't make sense at all. yet it is on the top chart of App Store... And throughout the years I find only effective to work for me is to work at coffee shops with random background music selected by the shop operator. So I developed my own "pomodoro" app with a simple function that toggle your reward circle in different ways. Please use this app at a coffeeshop or any places surround with music :) Any feedback is craved! https://apple.co/3tAdwBO October 12, 2023 at 01:34PM

Show HN: thcon, a config-driven theme controller It's not the first CLI tool that switches terminal, editor, and desktop themes, and it certainly won't be the last. This one (mine) focuses more on switching between dark and light variants of a theme than on theme hopping, and is able to support a different set of tools. Notably, KDE Plasma, GNOME Shell user themes, and the macOS global dark mode are all supported, which is pretty unique I guess? https://bit.ly/3Fafmfv October 12, 2023 at 01:42AM

Show HN: Dynamic aspect-driven image rendering for web developers https://bit.ly/3PTX2Mo

Show HN: Dynamic aspect-driven image rendering for web developers Hello HN! A few months back I was developing a website and I had to manually (re)crop images a bunch of times to test different image placements and layouts. I thought it would be neat to have a way to generate those images on the fly. Enter.. Ratio Render! ( https://bit.ly/46oeobb ) Ratio Render enables web developers to dynamically render image placeholders on their websites via their aspect ratios. Rather than serving up fixed dimension jpg or png images, Ratio Render serves up SVGs which maintain their aspect ratios while scaling infinitely. Images get embedded via a standard image tag e.g. `` It's built with Typescript & Node, runs powered by AWS Lambda, and deployed via Terraform. I'm actively working on it and there is lots of room for improvement. Any comments, feedback, or suggestions are welcome, especially if you're a web developer! https://bit.ly/46oeobb October 11, 2023 at 11:16AM

Show HN: SQL Window Functions Explained https://bit.ly/46M3FaG

Show HN: SQL Window Functions Explained Window functions are probably the most confusing part of SQL. You might think, "So what? They just added a few extra functions". Not really. "Window functions" is a separate language built into regular SQL. And it's more complicated than anything you know about SELECTs. I've read several dozen articles explaining SQL window functions. They all suffered from one of two problems: (1) Easy read without much practical value, describing 10% of features, or (2) Difficult to comprehend (if I did not know the subject — I would not understand a thing). I wanted people to understand SQL windows better. So I wrote a book on window functions with a hundred pictures and GIFs explaining everything, and fifty-six interactive exercises to turn abstract knowledge into skills. Here it is. https://bit.ly/3tjNt1F October 11, 2023 at 01:25PM
