Show HN: Charmed AI- end to end tools for 3D video game arthttps://charmed.ai/blog/announcing-charmed-1_0Hi HN, I'm Jeremy, the founder of Charmed AI (https://charmed.ai). We're building tools to make it way easier to build 3D content for video games.In our 1.0 release, we're providing all of the tools needed to go from idea to game integration for an animated 3D game asset (walkthrough: https://youtu.be/ZjkFfGUJxCM). We offer apps for creating new 3D models, re-painting the surface of those models, and animating them. It's all organized around a cloud asset manager for team collaboration.Something that makes us a little different than other 3D AI tools is that we're focused on the full 3D art production process. In the future, I don't anticipate magic command lines that summon forth content from sparse description. Instead, we're building toward a future where small teams of experts move much faster in an iterative process of creative discovery. For 3D art that means breaking down the barriers that have caused it to be a serial, waterfall process with long schedules, huge budgets, and maMar 8, 2024 7:45 PM

Show HN: Effortless App Publishing with Reusable React Native Templatehttps://github.com/beplus-bootstrap/mobileHey HN Community,I'd like to share a project created from my own need for simplicity and efficiency in mobile deployment: a free and reusable React Native CLI Template designed to streamline the deployment process to the AppStores.Minimalism is at its core, focused on the deployment itself, this Template will help you with:- Multi-environment Support: Separate (dev, stage, and prod) environments and all apps installed on your device simultaneously, making testing and iteration much easier,- Environment-Specific Configuration: By integrating react-native-config, the app's behavior is adapted to its running environment and is as straightforward as providing the proper values (in .env or the environment itself),- Simplified Deployment: Creating the apps in Apple Developer + AppStore Connect, managing Code Signing Certificates + Provisioning Profiles and automated deployment – everything's included with a simple Fastlane integration, which makes deploying to both Apple AppStore and Google Mar 7, 2024 1:33 PM

My partner was accepted to a top public university that most of you recognize (the one just over the Bay Bridge), for a 1 year graduate degree. She will be starting this summer/fall.TLDR: Is it stupid to quit my job and try to accompany my partner on an F2 visa, spending a year looking for a job in the Bay Area?The details:* I am in the unique position of holding Australian citizenship, thus eligible for an E3 visa: I'd only need a solid job offer to be able to work legally, no lottery uncertainty or legal costs to the employer.* Unfortunately my understanding is that employers are not really aware of this visa, thus tend to ignore/filter out resumes that look like needing "proper" sponsorship.* The tech downturn is brutal and I am not an exceptional candidate.

Tell HN: Coinbase Added a Fake Signatory to My Vaulthttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39544731I first signed up for Coinbase in 2016.In post-FTX 2022, I was ready to dive back into crypto. With a 5 figures investment, I chose Coinbase's Vault for "security" without the cold wallet setup hassle. I setup my email and phone number as the standard Signatories, loaded up my vault.But this "No hassle" option became a horror show.One month after setting up, I was blocked from accessing my Vault by a mysterious OTP pop-up that claimed to have sent me an OTP which never came. As an engineer, I signed in on my desktop and using inspect-element, found out some weird JS blocking the OTP request button from actually sending the OTP — odd, but I wrote it off as a bug and moved on.Zoom to August 2023: Coinbase sends me an email that my region will no longer be supported. Few days later, they inform me I must go through a KYC process to keep using Coinbase, which I powered through. Post-KYC, my Vault's back, but guess what? A stranger's email had been added as a signatory to my Vaults — "TrudeFeb 28, 2024 11:14 PM

Show HN: Leaping – Open-source debugging with LLMshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39528087Show HN: Leaping - Open-source debugging with LLMsHi HN! We’re Adrien and Kanav. We met at our previous job, where we spent about a third of our life combating a constant firehose of bugs. In the hope of reducing this pain for others in the future, we’re working on automating debugging.We started by capturing information from running applications to then ‘replay’ relevant sessions later. Our approach for Python involved extensive monkey patching: we’d use OpenTelemetry-style instrumentation to hook into the request/response lifecycle, and capture anything non-deterministic (random, time, database/third-party API calls, etc.). We would then run your code again, mocking out the non-determinism with the captured values from production, which would let you fix production bugs with the local debugger experience. You might recognize this as a variant of omniscient debugging. We think it was a nifty idea, but we couldn’t get past the performance overhead/security concerns.Approaching the probFeb 27, 2024 6:59 PM

Intuitive Machines’ Odysseus Achieves First Landing for CLPShttps://www.spacescout.info/2024/02/odysseus-first-landing-for-clps/On Thursday, February 22nd, Intuitive Machines’ Nova-C lander Odysseus successfully touched down on the Moon, achieving the “ultimate milestone” for the IM-1 mission and marking the first major victory for NASA’s Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) initiative. After Powered Descent Initiation occurred at 5:11 PM CST, Odysseus’s main engine fired for approximately eleven minutes, bringing the vehicle down for a soft landing on the lunar highlands at 5:23 CST. Despite a slight pointing error which delayed acquisition of signal, the lander was confirmed to be on the surface and transmitting a few minutes after touchdown. At a press conference on February 23rd, Intuitive Machines CEO Stephen Altemus reported that the team currently believes the lander to be lying on its side, but otherwise intact. Odysseus is the first American spacecraft to have safely landed on the Moon since Apollo 17 in 1972, and the first to do so near the lunar South Pole.Feb 23, 2024 9:30 PM
