Show HN: Open-Source Zero-Shot Image Model Server Enabling Model Feedbackhttps://github.com/DirectAI/simple-data-free-model-serverHi everyone!Here is an open source implementation of a decently performant server hosting zero-shot image models (CLIP for image classification, OWL-ViT-ST for object detection), with an extra algorithm to allow users to give the models feedback when they make mistakes! We built a company off this flavor of tech two years ago and have clients who are currently using our commercial API. We are now moving on to other projects but want to make sure our clients still have access to the approaches that they've grown to rely on, so we're open sourcing a simple implementation that they'll be able to use after we've shut down our hosted API!I used to work at a robotics startup. After a while it seemed clear that the biggest limiting factor in our ability to ship new models wasn't innovation on model architecture, it was access to relevant, high-quality training data. Around that time CLIP was released, which got me thinking about the idea of having models with world-knowledge baked in so as to

ESA's Open Day in the Netherlandshttps://www.esa.int/ESA_Multimedia/Videos/2024/10/ESA_s_Open_Day_in_the_NetherlandsOn Saturday 5 and Sunday 6 October 2024, the European Space Agency opened the doors to the European Space Research and Technology Centre, ESTEC, in the Netherlands, welcoming some 9000 visitors to its 13th annual Open Day. As in previous years, ESA’s largest establishment in Europe invited the public to meet space engineers, astronauts and to see actual space hardware. Attendees explored state-of-the-art facilities, interacted with ESA and NASA astronauts and discovered various job opportunities at ESA. There was also a full schedule of talks from Space Rocks, celebrating the art and culture of science and space.

Show HN: I launched my DevOps PostgreSQL platform todayhttps://www.batteriesincl.com/solutions/databaseMy name is Elliott. For the last three years, I’ve been building a DevOps platform on the best-in-class open source platforms (Kubernetes, Elixir, PostgreSQL, Grafana, etc.). The goal is to give engineering teams access to a modern DevOps infrastructure without needing to have a full SRE/DevOps team dedicated.It’s also open source /fair source - all the source code is here → https://github.com/batteries-included/batteries-includedI shipped a public beta today and would love to hear initial reactions, thoughts, and feedback.Here are details of the platform: * The platform features a user-friendly suggestion-based interface that guides users on topics like PostgreSQL cluster memory/CPU ratios, serverless web hosting, and secure secret sharing. Advanced users can quickly access complete control over their data.* It’s an Elixir-based UI on a database-driven, self-hosted Kubernetes platform.

Should I Use a Framework to Build an Agent? Code vs. LangGraph vs. Workflowshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41722243LangGraph and LlamaIndex Workflows are generating a lot of buzz right now, and we wanted to see how they measure up in practice versus just writing the code. To do that, we took a straightforward agent architecture—one we've built and deployed in code without a framework—and implemented it using LangGraph and Workflows. Our main goal was to explore how these frameworks translate a simple agent design into their abstractions and assess the impact on the development and debugging process.We want to share our findings with the community, providing practical examples and honest observations about these frameworks where they introduce friction and where they shine. There’s a lot of hype out there, and we hope to offer some clarity with real code examples and unbiased perspectives.For context, we’ve been running our own Co-pilot agent/assistant in production for about eight months. We’ve also helped clients troubleshoot their assistants at scale, so we’ve seen a wide range of use cases and c

Ask HN: Looking for a Reddit Backuphttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41717519Some important users I study got banned from reddit, with the side effect of no longer having access to their comments, because reddit practices the ancient Roman punishment of damnatio memorae, not unlike how the Japanese practiced crucifixion on Christian missionaries.Therefore, if any wise guy has a URL to a reddit backup, preferably one that allows you to search the comments authored by a given user, that would be swell.

Show HN: A real time AI video agent with under 1 second of latencyhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41710227Hey it’s Hassaan & Quinn – co-founders of Tavus, an AI research company and developer platform for video APIs. We’ve been building AI video models for ‘digital twins’ or ‘avatars’ since 2020.We’re sharing some of the challenges we faced building an AI video interface that has realistic conversations with a human, including getting it to under 1 second of latency.To try it, talk to Hassaan’s digital twin: https://www.hassaanraza.com, or to our "demo twin" Carter: https://www.tavus.ioWe built this because until now, we've had to adapt communication to the limits of technology. But what if we could interact naturally with a computer? Conversational video makes it possible – we think it'll eventually be a key human-computer interface.To make conversational video effective, it has to have really low latency and conversational awareness. A fast-paced conversation between friends has ~250 ms between utterances, but if you’re talking about something more complex or with someone new, there is a

The internet is 90% Fakehttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41698171The internet is not real and 90% of its traffic is likely bots. From the media to the interactions to the connection: we all live inside these little digital enclaves that rarely connect with REAL people or digital media. Its all political ai/spam bot farms and ai generated political videos. More than half the code on github is from ai, probably more than half of all websites are fake and created for some sort of automated purpose. Whats even stranger is thinking back 10 years ago and how unique every page I visited or game I played was. Now the experince is awful: constant garbage on every corner of it, the same bubbly "smooth" UI's on every site, every application, everywhere- ad here, ad there, cloud this cloud that. Your data?? Our data!! its in the big old cloud (their computer). Everything is somewhat the same- everything follows the money, money follows the data the data shows a certain action is profitable, bot farm time- now we all do same thing make same content same shit bec

Show HN: Craigslist Car Shopping Chrome Extension with KBB and AI Insightshttps://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/carbuddy-talk-to-cars-wit/aglpplbhdlccaekjbajdgfbjlbgmeageDuring my exchange in Berkeley, my friends and I decided to share a few cars amongst ourselves. Car shopping was fun at first, until you realize how tedious it is to have to constantly look up the fair valuation with a price advisor like Kelley Blue Books (KBB) for every single car (easily >30% of the time spent shopping).We were also novices when it came to cars and didn’t know what to look out for. As a result, after less than a month of use, one of our car’s engines completely stopped while I was on the way home from school on the highway. Thankfully there were no accidents or injuries, but it was a harrowing experience nonetheless and the administrative headaches that followed were a huge pain.These experiences and pains is what led me to create Car Buddy, an AI-powered chrome extension that gives you the fair value of the car in-page on the car listing itself, but also lets you “talk to the car”. It gives you insights and warnings of common issues faced and acts as a personalized
