Show HN: Convert audio and video to accurate text with timestampsHello HN,I'm excited to introduce RapidTranscribe, an AI-powered transcription service designed to save you time and boost productivity.Personal Story:I often watch lectures on YouTube and recordings from various conferences, usually long files that can be hours or even dozens of hours in length. I’m typically interested in specific moments within these recordings and end up skipping through most of the content. I find it more convenient and faster to read than to listen, and I often want to input the text of these recordings into a language model to ask specific questions. I'm sure I'm not alone in this.I've tried around 50 different transcription services, but almost all of them failed to meet my needs in terms of price or quality for my usage (which is around 50-150 hours per month). I wondered why these services were either too expensive or not quite suitable for my needs, and I realized I could create something better for myself and others.Key Features:- Unlimited Transcriptions:

Launch HN: Airhart Aeronautics (YC S22) – A modern personal airplaneHey Hacker News! I’m Nikita, founder of Airhart Aeronautics (https://www.airhartaero.com/). We are building an airplane for people who don’t fly airplanes. The goal is to make flying as easy as driving a car—while maintaining a high bar for safety. Here’s a video that shows a bit of our hardware and quite a bit of our software: https://youtu.be/PGJUGUceu8AIn the US, trips that are 50-300 miles are almost all done by car because that distance is too short for commercial airlines and too far for public transportation. Thanks to the Wright Brothers we've had aerial transport for over 100 years. The US has over 19,000 airports, and large commercial airplane technology has developed to the point that the planes practically fly themselves. If we already have the infrastructure and the technology, why isn't everyone flying planes?The problem is that small airplane technology hasn’t innovated and is stuck in the past. Flying a small airplane is complicated, mentally taxing, and dangerous—about

Ask HN: Where are the old folks in tech?I've been doing retirement planning the last week. I'm 40 and I figure that I have at least ten years left before I could consider retiring so I've been thinking about what the next chunk of my career will look like.I've hopped around a bunch of different companies in my career -- small startups, big public companies, non-profits -- and all of them seemed to have a distinct lack of "old people" working there. Usually a couple folks in the mid forties, almost none in their fifties. Nobody with white hair or grown adult children.So, where are the old techies? A few ideas:- They are clustered into specific companies that were booming back when they were younger and they haven't moved- It just seems like there's very few of them because there's been such massive growth in the field that it seems young- Everybody in tech either fails and drops out, burns out, or becomes independently wealthy at a young age- They've all ascended to management and I don't see them because I'm stubbornly stick

Ask HN: How to find job as Maths graduate with little other qualifications?I apologize if this question is to open-ended or otherwise inappropriate to the “Ask HN” format.I’m a student of Mathematics in Germany, at the very end of my Master’s (thesis submitted & defended, awaiting gradation) but have not managed to secure any job offer up till now, in spite of having tried for quite some time now. At this point I feel somewhat at a loss, so I was hoping that anybody on here knowledgeable about the job market in Germany would perhaps have an idea as to what (if anything) I might be doing wrong or what other avenues I could consider that I’ve missed so far.My main problem is likely that I have almost nothing to show in the way of “hard” skills and practical qualification besides the Maths degree. I did work part-time for most of my studies, but mostly stuff like generic office work or watching kids at an after-school care.When my graduation neared, I first thought hat it might be possible to find a job in an industrial context (e.g. in Automotive/Aviation, Phar

Flying Solo Is an Unfair AdvantageI've always wanted to build and sell my own software.But I imagined nasty things like taxes, legal, support, and maintenance coming my way. I would be taken to jail for accidentally violating some esoteric tax regulation. My favorite part was always building, and the employee trade-off of having more constraints and no grown-up responsibilities seemed like a great deal.Not only did it seem like a great deal, it WAS a great deal. Most of my years as a wage-slave have been quite enjoyable. Like Nassim Taleb says, "The three most harmful addictions are heroin, carbohydrates, and a monthly salary."Running a niche software business in the cloud now requires so ridiculously little overhead that it is almost a rounding error. Most of the taxes, accounting, compliance, payments, servers, networking, databases, and marketing can be automated away if you are willing to pay for it. Take my money!There is another shift, too: generative AI. It now writes most of my code, helps communicate with cust

Show HN: I built a Jeopardy game maker with buzzer supportSometime in early 2022, my wife and I started watching Jeopardy! regularly, almost by accident. Inspired, I thought it would be fun to create and host my own games with family and friends.By September 2022, I debuted Buzzinga at a family reunion. Back then, it was just a website running locally on my MacBook. It was a total blast, and I knew this was something the world should enjoy too.I launched Buzzinga.io in December 2023 and have been rolling out regular updates for our 2000+ users ever since.Features:- Built-in buzzer support (phones and physical buzzers) - Automatic scorekeeping - User-friendly host controls - Highly customizable - Supports multiple clue types: text, image, audio, and videoThe site does not require sign up to play around with, only to create your own games.

Show HN: Daminik – An Open source digital asset managerHey guys! We just published our little open source project on GitHub and would love to get some feedback. It's a very early release (alpha) but we thought it would be better to do it earlier so that we could get direct feedback.Over the last 10 years we have built small to large web-projects of all kind. Almost every project involved managing images and files in one way or another. How do we manage our images and where? What happens if an image or logo changes, does it get updated across all sites? Which Host/CDN to choose? Is everything we do GDPR-compliant? With Daminik, we are trying to build a simple solution to solve these problems. One DAM with an integrated CDN. That’s it.You can check it out at: https://daminik.com/?ref=hackernews (hackernews being the invitation code)Repo: https://github.com/daminikhq/daminikWe would love to get your guys feedback on our alpha.
