Show HN: EndBOX DIY Kit – A Basic MicrocomputerHello all!A month ago, I announced of a "little box" I've been working on to run EndBASIC, similar to the machines we played with in the 1980s. The box was briefly discussed in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44253065 and I wasn't quite ready to properly launch it.Today, I'm still not ready to actually build and ship this box myself as I was previously thinking (and I'm not sure I'll even try to embark on that journey!), but I have finished preparing DIY instructions to build your own little machine.AND, as part of this, I've released the disk image with the tailored OS for the Raspberry Pi to run a BASIC system right at boot. In case you are curious, the OS is, essentially, a minimal NetBSD system customized with a build of the EndBASIC interpreter that leverages NetBSD APIs directly, bypassing the need for X11 to offer you a console very early in the boot.Links for the downloads in the instructions page!Hope you enjoy it.

Show HN: Semcheck – AI Tool for checking implementation follows specHi HN, like many I've been interested in the direction software engineering is taking now that coding LLMs are becoming prevalent. It seems that we're not quite there for "natural language programming", but it seems new abstractions are already starting to form. In order to explore this further I've built semcheck (semantic checker). It's a simple cli tool that can be used in CI or pre-commit to check that your implementation matches your specification using LLMs.The inspiration came while I was working on another project where I needed a data structure for a GeoJSON object, I passed Claude the text of RFC-7946 and it gave me an implementation. It took some back and forth after that before I was happy with it, but this also meant the RFC went out of context for the LLM. That's why I asked Claude again to check the RFC to make sure we haven't strayed too far from the spec. It occurred to me that it would be good to have a formal way of defining these kinds of checks that can be run in a

Show HN: Joyspace AI Clips – Automatically Create Short Clips from Long VideosHi HN,Sagar here from Joyspace AI. We've built a video understanding model that works alongside transcripts to deeply comprehend people, objects, themes, personas, and the core message of a video.Using this model as the foundation, we’ve launched Joyspace AI Clips. Joyspace AI Clips automatically creates short, shareable clips from longer videos like webinars, podcasts, talks, sales calls, Zoom recordings, etc. Our initial testing shows higher accuracy and capturing all key moments from long videos.Right now, our model performs best when there’s a human presence in at least part of the video. It doesn't need to be every frame, but having a person in the video boosts accuracy significantly. We will update our model for other categories such as gaming videos or faceless videos. To be clear, they still work today but accuracy may not be higher.Joyspace AI Clips works quite well with presentation-style content. From what we’ve seen, horizontal videos tend to perform better on social when t

Show HN: Digger Solo – Semantic File Search and MapsI built Digger Solo a privacy respecting file explorer from the future. The core features are semantic file search and interactive data maps allowing to explore your files with ease. All processing happens locally - your files never leave your machine.The file search works by combining full text search with semantic search allowing to search for content of text and image files by their meaning / content (even if the image has no descriptive file name). You can start a search query using a tag e.g. "#jpg cat" to search all your jpg files for cats.Files are sorted by content similarity in interactive maps that reveal hidden connections and patterns across your collection (text, image, video & audio files supported).Tags are inferred from imported file paths and file types.Technicalities:Digger Solo is quite a complex beast: I am using PyTauri (https://github.com/pytauri/pytauri - Python bindings for Tauri with a Rust backend with JS frontend). Python is used to import files, run the dime

Ask HN: How do I market to consumers as a solo dev about to go to uni?Hi!I've spent my gap year making a language learning tool[0]. It's been somewhat successful, but I really don't have a sustainable marketing strategy (e.g. SEO or ads) - it's all from me sharing it, making blog posts, etc. I'm going to uni in ~2.5 months, and I'd like to be able to keep it growing, even as most of my attention goes towards my studies.My users are really happy with it, the conversion rate is good, and there's been a surprising amount of word of mouth from them already, but it's just not quite enough.I've had some limited success from Reddit text ads, but their algorithm is determined to optimise for cost per click, rather than conversions, and it's only getting worse over time. Text in general is a lot easier for me to work with.X ads don't work at all. Nor do Google or Reddit banner ads, or Adwords.SEO is an expensive labyrinth. I've made some progress there, paying for some backlinks and having a high quality blog, but not enough to rank for the keywords that matter.

Show HN: Fast Random Library for C++17Morning HN.Random number generation feels is a somewhat underrepresented topic in the C++ realm. There is a lot of questionable info about it found online and even the standard library is quite behind the times in terms of it's algorithms. It suffers from trying to accommodate sometimes impractical standard requirements and has several ways of getting significantly bad statistical results. This leaves a lot easily achievable performance & quality on the table.So, being a mathematician who mostly works with stochastic models and wants these models to run fast and well, I embarked on a journey of trying to summarize "what is good and what is bad" and implement the "best stuff there currently is".Thankfully, the design of C++ is quite flexible and easy to extend. With some cleanup, generalization and compile-time logic all the different algorithms can be wrapped in a generic standard-compatible API.A result of this work is single-header RNG library which has: - -compatible generators (PRN

Ask HN: What projects do you donate to?With the Internet rapidly undergoing its corpocene mass extinction event, the few initiatives trying to keep the web and the software ecosphere habitable depends mostly on individual contributions.Traditionally, advertising your charitable contributions might be seen as distasteful virtue signalling for which one has already earned their reward. However, I think in the cultural context of digital initiatives, it’s actually helpful and quite important to show off what you have been donating to, it is a much stronger signal to draw people’s attention to important projects by word of mouth.Thus, this thread is intended to be a celebration of your personal contributions to initiatives towards digital freedom.Think of it as an “MyAnimeList for donations”, or a “Goodreads for open projects”, list out which projects you personally have your sights on you think are important that other people also hear about.Examples:- the Blender project: a lifeline to rescue creative professionals from the c

Show HN: Visualizing web server activity using gourceI just want to share this little weekend experiment. I used gource (usually intended to show git repo changes over time) with web server logs.Video is at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqV8wqy0v7wIt's showing the web server activity for a non profit, requesting and receiving payments, accepting new members, as well as having the two admins making changes around. This is actually surprisingly easy to do with gource by just providing a log file in a pretty simple format instead of providing the git repo. This is a low traffic server but I find it quite interesting as a way to visualize server activity. I wonder why do visualizations like these aren't seen more often.

Show HN: Remote-Controlled IKEA Deathstar LampRepainting the iconic IKEA PS 2014 lamp into the Deathstar from Star Wars has been a popular IKEA hack for quite some time.This variant additionally replaces the manual, rope-operated mechanism to open and close the lamp with a remote-controlled motor.The firmware is based on ESPHome, and its excellent Home Assistant integration enables one to implement higher-level features, like a "sundial" where the aperture of the Deathstar follows the sun elevation throughout the day (see the timelapse video).That said, I will not consider this project as complete until the Imperial March can be played over the stepper motor (just like the legendary Floppotron) ;-)
