Show HN: Tab vs. Space, vote for your empty space Hello guys. I built a simple voting app Tab vs Space. I am using turso.tech (libsql) and Nuxt 3. I was planning to use websocket but it's just too complicated and just went with long-polling every 5 seconds to get the data and deploy it to cloudflare pages/worker. There is no need to login and also no IP tracking. I use installation id and save it to cookies, so basically you can clear cookies to get a new installation id. I don't know a better way to get unique user without being "intrusive" but if you have a better idea please do give one. You can check the source code here https://bit.ly/3RSrWXy Thank you https://bit.ly/3YaYb8n July 6, 2024 at 03:31AM

Show HN: I made shopping clothes online easier Hey HN, A pattern I realized when I shopped for anything online is that by the end of my shopping session, I would accumulated over 15+ tabs. It's so easy to click on "Open in New Tab" that I figured other people have this issue as well. https://bit.ly/3ztjfMN July 5, 2024 at 01:47AM

Show HN: Sonatino – small audio dev board based on ESP32-S3 https://bit.ly/3zue9zV

Show HN: Sonatino – small audio dev board based on ESP32-S3 Hi! My name is Ben, and I recently updated my audio dev board "Sonatino" after receiving a lot of good feedback from the initial launch a year ago. I began working on this after building a few projects that required audio capabilities. I was getting tired of wiring up external DACs and amplifiers to ESP32 boards, so I decided to look for a more compact, integrated solution. The available options either had larger footprints, non-standard connectors, or features that I didn't typically need for my projects. That's when I started working on a custom PCB that could be a sort of "audio swiss army knife". The result was Sonatino. Some have criticized the use of a DAC and ADC that support HD sample rates and bit depths, especially when other factors will limit the usefulness of anything over 44.1kHz/16-bit audio. I actually agree - HD audio in this context is mostly overkill, but most modern audio chips support it and it's entirely optional. My primary goal was for the ADC and DAC to be easy to use - no I2C configuration required (like many of the CODECs available). It needed to be easy to use from an Arduino programming environment. The chips I selected (from Cirrus Logic) were a good fit; they just also happened to support higher sample rates / bit depths. The latest revision drops the built-in antenna in favor of an external one. It also has a better speaker amp (3.2 W), an RGB LED, and improved power circuity. It's been a fun little board to work with! https://bit.ly/3VThf7Y Check it out and let me know if you have feedback. Price is currently higher than I'd like, but that's a result of it being manufactured at low volumes. July 1, 2024 at 09:07PM

Show HN: Jb / json.bash – Command-line tool (and bash library) that creates JSON https://bit.ly/4cqxssA

Show HN: Jb / json.bash – Command-line tool (and bash library) that creates JSON jb is a UNIX tool that creates JSON, for shell scripts or interactive use. Its "one thing" is to get shell-native data (environment variables, files, program output) to somewhere else, using JSON encapsulate it robustly. I wrote this because I wanted a robust and ergonomic way to create ad-hoc JSON data from the command line and scripts. I wanted errors to not pass silently, not coerce data types, not put secrets into argv. I wanted to leverage shell features/patterns like process substitution, environment variables, reading/streaming from files and null-terminated data. If you know of the jo program, jb is similar, but type-safe by default and more flexible. jo coerces types, using flags like -n to coerce to a specific type (number for -n), without failing if the input is invalid. jb encodes values as strings by default, requiring type annotations to parse & encode values as a specific type (failing if the value is invalid). If you know jq, jb is complementary in that jq is great at transforming data already in JSON format, but it's fiddly to get non-JSON data into jq. In contrast, jb is good at getting unstructured data from arguments, environment variables and files into JSON (so that jq could use it), but jb cannot do any transformation of data, only parsing & encoding into JSON types. I feel rather guilty about having written this in bash. It's something of a boiled frog story. I started out just wanting to encode JSON strings from a shell script, without dependencies, with the intention of piping them into jq. After a few trials I was able to encode JSON strings in bash with surprising performance, using array operations to encode multiple strings at once. It grew from there into a complete tool. I'd certainly not choose bash if I was starting from scratch now... https://bit.ly/3zph1y1 July 3, 2024 at 11:18AM

Show HN: Faktor – The missing 2FA code autocomplete for Chrome Hi everyone, Kenneth here. As a loyal Chrome user, I was frustrated that one of Apple's most loved features from Safari and iOS wasn't available in Chrome. So, I built Faktor—a tool that grabs 2FA security codes from your iPhone and autofills them in Google Chrome on your Mac. Faktor is a native macOS app with a small Chrome extension, and once you install Faktor its easy to forget that this functionality isn't native to Chrome. Enjoy! https://bit.ly/3ztLWtb June 29, 2024 at 06:38PM

Show HN: Improve LLM Performance by Maximizing Iterative Development https://bit.ly/4cN3vT8

Show HN: Improve LLM Performance by Maximizing Iterative Development I have been working in AI space for a while now, first at FAANG with ML since 2021, then with LLM in start-ups since early 2023. I think LLM Application development is extremely iterative, more so than any other types of development. This is because to improve an LLM application performance (accuracy, hallucinations, latency, cost), you need to try various combinations of LLM models, prompt templates (e.g., few-shot, chain-of-thought), prompt context with different RAG architecture, different agent architecture, and more. There are thousands of possible combinations and you need a process that let’s you quickly test and evaluate these different combinations. I have had the chance to talk with many companies working on AI products. The biggest mistake I see is a lack of standard process that allows them to rapidly iterate towards their performance goal. Using my learnings, I’m working on an Open Source Framework that structures your application development for rapid iteration so you can easily test different combination of your LLM application components and quickly iterate towards your accuracy goals. You can checkout the project at https://bit.ly/3xHAzx4 You can locally setup a complete LLM Chat App with us with a single command. Stars are always appreciated! Would love any feedback or your thoughts around LLM Development. https://bit.ly/3xHAzx4 July 3, 2024 at 02:52AM

Show HN: I created an After Effects alternative Many years ago, I made VJ softwares (to mix live visuals in clubs) for unexpected platforms like the Game Boy Advance, the Playstation 2 and the Raspberry Pi. This year, I’m back with a new web-app: Pikimov. Inspired by Photopea (a free Photoshop clone), I created this web-based motion design & video editor as an alternative to After Effects, to fill empty void. It's free, without signup, without cloud uploads (your files stay on your machine), and your projects are not used for AI models training. https://bit.ly/4bzcmak July 1, 2024 at 09:57AM

Show HN: Standardizing build, experiment, and deployment for LLM Development https://bit.ly/3L9xoBv

Show HN: Standardizing build, experiment, and deployment for LLM Development *Motivation* Hi hackers, I'm Asif. I know we dislike premature standardization, but hear me out. LLM Application development is extremely iterative, more so than most other types of application development. We need a process that allows us to iterate faster. LLM Development is highly iterative due to the activities that come with regular software development, as well as the need to make the LLM Application accurate and reduce hallucination. To improve hallucination, we need to trial and error various combinations of LLM models, prompt templates (e.g., few-shot, chain-of-thought), prompt context with different RAG architecture, and possibly try multi-agent architecture. There are thousands of permutations to try, and we want to be able to easily experiment with different permutations and have a process to objectively judge LLM performance so we can iteratively move towards accuracy goals. *Solution* I have been working in AI since 2021 - first at FAANG with ML, then with LLM in start-ups since early 2023. I have had the chance to talk with many different companies that have been successful and unsuccessful with AI development. Using my learnings, I am working on an Open Source framework to standardize the build, experiment, and deploy process for LLM Development. The goal of this framework is to optimize for rapid iteration. We are doing this by enforcing a modular LLM application layer build, allowing for easy testing of different configurations of your application. We provide maximum flexibility for using any external tools you want for building your application. We also have tools to benchmark your accuracy and improve the performance of your application in a data-driven way. Finally, everything is deployable through a Docker image. *Getting Involved* If you're curious, check us out on Github. You can get fully set up with a single command.
