Show HN: International Legal Dictionary https://bit.ly/3OWHllm

Show HN: International Legal Dictionary I'm a pro bono attorney, and have been really interested in making the law easier to understand. I also see a ton of government resources online in varying degrees of usability. And for sure, there's no interoperability between them. This is an international legal dictionary, an experiment in improving the situation: glossaries are scraped and parses from official sources: https://bit.ly/3BvVD9b . The results are saved as datasets in well formed JSON with Dublin Core metadata: https://bit.ly/3cVqzW6 I add Library of Congress subject headings to the sources, to enable filtering (still to come). The web app is basically an old-school mashup, which I've always liked. Another experiment is using the Dale-Chall readability formula to improve the reader's experience. Here's an example of it at work: https://bit.ly/3oL8SLS This is an experiment, using readability as a relative metric. I.e., not extracing an absolute grade-level score as its normaly used. Instead, using it to compare different definitions of the same phrase. My theory is, there's strong scientific validity for this use, even when applied to very short passages: All I simply want is to figure out, "Which is more readable? Passage A or B?" And then, my code sorts the definitions in order of readability to (theoretically) produce a newspaper-article-like effect: A reader can read the first couple of sentences to get an overview of the story. https://bit.ly/3PNzc3G August 1, 2022 at 04:11AM

Show HN: Rentaflop – Render your Blender projects without sacrificing quality https://bit.ly/3zlMhKL

Show HN: Rentaflop – Render your Blender projects without sacrificing quality Hi HN, My name is David Sokol, and I'm the founder of rentaflop (https://bit.ly/3bnmMAv). We're a crowdsourced render farm aimed at making Blender rendering fast and affordable. If you've used Blender, then I'm sure you've experienced the pain of waiting around for your animations to render. You've probably even had to sacrifice the quality of your work to reduce your render times. I've been there too. If you're like me, then you're also disappointed with the alternative solutions: spending thousands of dollars on graphics cards or using prohibitively expensive cloud render farms to get fast render times. Our solution to this dilemma is to leverage low opportunity cost hardware from around the world to allow Blender artists to render their projects quickly, affordably, and without compromising on quality. Since most graphics card owners aren't utilizing their hardware to do valuable work 24/7, we provide them with a way to make money without lifting a finger, while lowering the cost curve for 3D rendering. We're currently doing a private beta. If you'd like to get early access, check out our site (https://bit.ly/3bnmMAv) and join the waitlist. If you're a graphics card owner who wants to help Blender artists while earning money, reach out to support@rentaflop.com and we'll help you get set up. Please leave a comment below, we'd love to hear your thoughts :) July 31, 2022 at 11:59PM

Show HN: Ordinary Puzzles, a free puzzle game inspired by Picross and Sudoku Hello hello HN! I wanted to share with you Ordinary Puzzles, a little puzzle game I designed and developed in my free time, inspired by Picross and Sudoku. I already posted it here ages ago, but I wanted to share it again now that I updated it to also be playable online as a Progressive Web App. Ordinary Puzzles is open source, is built with React Native, and it’s available on the mobile app stores, on the web (as a PWA), and as an Electron app. Hope you give it a try! (Please don’t skip the short tutorial :P) https://bit.ly/3bf66vi P.S.: The puzzles come from https://bit.ly/3bf67iQ (the author is credited and has been contacted before using them). https://bit.ly/3cX0eY0 July 31, 2022 at 06:31PM

Show HN: I've been making JavaScript sandbox alone for 6 years Hi HN! Thanks for your attention to my post. It was a big challenge to run most of Node.js packages in browser, fast moreover. Virtual File system, resolve import/export. I got cold many times, depressions, burned out, yet still alive and finished it. Many guys helped me with an advice. Many users give a lot of positive feedback. There are 200,000 monthly unique users. I work full time now because of the freemium business model. To be honest - I am happy after many years of hard work. https://bit.ly/3cIevrd July 31, 2022 at 05:27AM

Show HN: SSHScript – shell script-like Python script https://bit.ly/3vuWHq7

Show HN: SSHScript – shell script-like Python script I have many Python scripts which run commands and deal with outputs on localhost and remote hosts. Between these scripts, there are many common routines. Eg. making ssh connections, execution and collecting data. Based on the subprocess and Paramiko, I created the SSHScript. With it, I could embed shell commands in Python scripts. This kind of script is converted to a regular Python script by SSHScript for execution . Working with SSHScript, I feel like writing shell scripts with Python and all Python packages. For backend engineers who want to automate tasks with Python scripts instead of shell script s , hope you enjoy the SSHScript. https://bit.ly/3vthjit July 30, 2022 at 10:28AM
