Show HN: I made Scrabble with modified rules https://bit.ly/3TJ3LK6

Show HN: I made Scrabble with modified rules Crapple is my take on "improved" Scrabble rules... obviously that is subjective, I'm not even sure I agree with it. You and your opponent share a rack of letters, and vowels are only obtained by opting to deduct a configurable amount of points from your score to receive a random vowel tile. Additionally, there is an alternate board layout with some new tile multipliers. This is an old project but I never posted it, so I thought what the hey, I am curious to hear what your guys' thoughts are on these rules. It's an old dead project so you can't hurt my feelings. Thanks! You can play it now against the computer in your browser (no signup required, but an account lets you create and play games against other humans). The Android app is the better version only because the AI will run on a seperate thread (in the browser version you might see a hiccup while it runs), and because Unity WebGL doesn't export retina-sized graphics (ie graphics may look less than sharp on your mobile device). (Note: I linked the landing page instead of the direct link to play in case you are on mobile and want to avoid a largish download. Direct link to play in the browser is here: https://bit.ly/3TToprp ) --- Some more details for anyone still reading... It's your basic LAMP stack on AWS, with Laravel for the web framework and Unity (2017) for the client. The dictionary is stored as a DAWG. When you play a word, instead of giving you the dictionary definition, I wanted to do something different like provide a paragraph from a book that the word was used in. You can click the book icon to get some of those, I was scraping books in the public domain but gave up after a while when I was getting diminishing returns for words I lacked paragraphs for (if you try it you will likely see a lot of Moby Dick paragraphs as I never randomized it either). The AI was based on the scrabble AI algorithm (I think it was this, but can't remember now, https://bit.ly/3RifZb5... ). Since Crapple has modified rules, due the possibility of "buying" vowels on your turn, there is set of _potential_ playable words. The Crapple AI ranks each word based on the cost of the vowels needed with their probability of obtaining the needed vowels. The AI is not very intelligent, the difference between the 3 provided computer opponents is just the average word score they will play. If I had worked on this any longer I could have extended this to let them take into account what words/scores they may be setting you up for with their play, and other ideas. Each player's avatar is consistent, but uniquely generated for them. I didn't want to have every using the same boring default avatar, but didn't want the hassles of letting people upload their own, so I went with a version of this idea: https://bit.ly/3THFtAb https://bit.ly/3RivAHE September 3, 2022 at 09:15PM

Show HN: Alumina Programming Language https://bit.ly/3TIq4zG

Show HN: Alumina Programming Language Alumina is a programming language I have been working on for a while. Alumina may be for you if you like the control that C gives you but miss goodies from higher level programming languages. It is mostly for fun and exercise in language design, I don't have any grand aspirations for it. It is however, by this time, a usable general-purpose language. Alumina borrows (zing) heavily from Rust, except for its raison d'être (memory safety). Syntax is a blatant rip-off of Rust, but so is the standard library scope and structure. Alumina bootstrap compiler currently compiles to ugly C, but a self-hosted compiler is early stages that will target LLVM as backend. If that sounds interesting, give it a try. I appreciate any feedback! Standard library documentation: https://bit.ly/3TD2Tqy Online compiler playground: https://bit.ly/3AOulsT https://bit.ly/3eiWOPR September 3, 2022 at 04:32PM

Show HN: I'm building an open-source Amazon https://bit.ly/3cByB77

Show HN: I'm building an open-source Amazon A couple of years ago, I had an interesting idea. What if there was a marketplace where all the underlying tech was open-source? The order management system, the storefront, customer support, etc. The marketplace would simply connect to the seller’s infra instead of locking them in. If, for some reason, the seller is removed from the marketplace, their software stays with them and they can continue accepting orders directly. This model can be used to disrupt any marketplace from AirBNB to UberEats: building tech for home renters and restaurants and later, leveraging that to build a competing marketplace. In 2019, I started building the first piece, Openship, an order management system that lets you source orders and fulfill them from anywhere. Now that that’s in stable release, next up is Openfront (an e-commerce platform for storefronts) and Opensupport (ticketing software for customer support). Together, they provide the staples for any modern business: sales, fulfillment, support. Let me know what you guys think of the idea and if you see any potential pitfalls. https://bit.ly/34ImG0j September 2, 2022 at 02:19PM

Show HN: Pith language. JavaScript with a little bit of Python syntax https://bit.ly/3cDekxV

Show HN: Pith language. JavaScript with a little bit of Python syntax I've been writing a lot of JavaScript and Python lately. I like Python's syntax, so I created a language called Pith that's JS with some Python-like syntax (but without trailing colons). It's not a full compiler. It really just does search-and-replace, but I find it fun and useful in spite of some sharp edges. I use it on my smartphone to write and run short programs. Here's an example using the HN API: max = 6 ids = await getApi('topstories') for id in ids.slice(0, max) getItem(id) async def getItem(id) const d = document.createElement('div') results.appendChild(d) d.style = 'padding-bottom: 1em;' i = await getApi('item/' + id) ? i.title, '|', i.score u = '//news.ycombinator.com/item?id=' d.innerHTML = i.title.link(u + id) async def getApi(path) u = '//hacker-news.firebaseio.com/v0/' return getJson(u + path + '.json') https://bit.ly/3RsdmTH September 1, 2022 at 07:47PM

Show HN: Open-source infra for building embedded data pipelines https://bit.ly/3RoH3VG

Show HN: Open-source infra for building embedded data pipelines Hey HN! We are building *open source infrastructure for deploying customer-facing data pipelines.* Here’s our repo https://bit.ly/3eaqrmp and website https://bit.ly/3KFMhKT . Pipebird is designed to enable companies that generate important data to offer secure data pushes to their customers’ warehouses, directly from their products. Our team was previously building in fintech, where we heard from many of our peers that their customers wanted data pushed directly to their warehouses. Customers wanted to bring data into their source of truth without having to maintain custom built pipelines or introduce security risks by contracting a third-party ETL/ELT provider. After seeing Stripe https://bit.ly/3RaZYUs and customer.io https://bit.ly/3eaqrCV recently invest in building out their own native data sharing products, we realized that many SaaS companies could better support their customers and even generate additional revenue by offering native data pipelines. Our goal with Pipebird is to make creating a reliable data pipeline as simple as pressing a button from a vendor's dashboard. With the current iteration of the product, data can be selected from a number of sources (ex: Postgres, MySQL, CockroachDB, etc.), customers can configure pipelines and optionally apply transformations (like type casting), and data can be periodically synced directly to customers’ warehouses (ex: Snowflake). We’re actively adding sources/destinations and would appreciate any feature requests. Here's a 2 min demo of the product https://bit.ly/3eaqj6p Pipebird is open source (MIT license) so that any developer can use it. Our aim is to not charge individual developers - we make money selling paid plans that include features like multiple projects, user permissions, additional security features, managed infra, support, etc. Give us a whirl: https://bit.ly/3eaqrmp . We’d love your feedback and will be here to answer any questions! https://bit.ly/3eaqrmp September 1, 2022 at 05:57PM

Show HN: Using GPT-3 to answer annoying interview application questions Hi folks. My wife has been looking for a job and sometimes in the application forms there are annoying questions like "Why do you want to work here?". At the same time I've been playing around with GPT-3 and have blown away by it's capabilities, so I decided to build a site that can answer these annoying questions for her. Github: https://bit.ly/3TxHpeQ Here's an example of a generated answer: Using this opening for a Senior iOS Engineer at Monzo - https://bit.ly/3Tz7xWE The generated answer question on the application "What attracted you to Monzo?": "What attracted me to Monzo is that it is a bank that is trying to make a difference in the world by making it easier for people to manage their money. Monzo is also very customer focused and puts the customer first in everything they do." https://bit.ly/3KzfCXb September 1, 2022 at 08:30AM
