Show HN: A ChatGPT TUI with custom botshttps://www.askmarvin.ai/guide/concepts/tui/Hi HN! We just shipped a full-featured TUI (Text User Interface) for chatting with your Marvin bots, powered by GPT 4 or GPT-3.5. Like all of Marvin, it's fully open-source and we hope you find it useful. To launch it, upgrade and run `marvin chat`.The TUI is built with Textual (https://github.com/textualize/textual/) and uses some of its newest features including background workers and modals. We've made base TUIs before but this is the first one that's a true "app" with many screens and coordinated global state. Happy to answer any questions about working with Textual - once it "clicked" it was surprisingly similar to building a traditional front end! Small note: Terminal.app on MacOS isn't great for TUIs, so while it'll work, we suggest an alternative terminal.One of our goals with the TUI was to integrate Marvin's bots into the familiar chat UX. Bots can have distinct personalities, instructions, and use plugins, so each one is like a mini "conversational application." You might knApr 8, 2023 7:10 PM

Ask HN: Time to Leave the US?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35364718It feels like the US has passed a tipping point of sorts and is rapidly moving the wrong way on a lot of important issues.Biggest / most glaring being the out-of-control gun violence, esp. in our schools. That's simply unacceptable to me as a parent of two toddlers under the age of 2.Medical / Cost of a significant illness is really Fd up in this country. I had a kidney stone last year, and it cost me over 5k. Most of my friends / family would not have been able to absorb that surprise expense and would have had to use credit cards. That's not even much cash compared to what medical bills in the US can easily cost you. Families are being financially ruined by this shit.Lastly would be random, non-school violence. My wife is Asian and the increase in random asshats assaulting smaller, weaker people – esp Asian women – is just the latest WTF is going on in this country.When I step back, it seems inevitable that someone close to me will suffer from one of the 3, or possible more than 1 ofMar 29, 2023 10:25 PM

Ask HN: What does software *for your product* cost?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35318099("for your product" means, software you're incorporating into a product, not just using it internally)I have a 4-part series coming up on software patents. The first two parts are written, but part three is to be about damages. My thesis is that, if someone does infringe your patent, the damages should be proportional to what a willing buyer would have paid to a willing seller. Possibly with a multiplier, but not some made-up gigantic number.In particular, I once posed this question to a VP Eng, and he said he would never pay royalties to someone, without a cap. Unless it was mission-critical and in that case, he would want to own it.Yet the damages claims I've seen are almost always an uncapped royalty, or else a huge number way beyond the willing-buyer-willing-seller range.No rants, please. What I'm looking for is some actual dollar figures for software you've licensed. I will anonymize it, and I will show you my text before publishing so you can be satisfied that your secrets are prMar 26, 2023 6:56 PM

Launch HN: Flower (YC W23) – Train AI models on distributed or sensitive datahttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35260815Hey HN - we're Daniel, Taner, and Nic, and we're building Flower (https://flower.dev/), an open-source framework for training AI on distributed data. We move the model to the data instead of moving the data to the model. This enables regulatory compliance (e.g. HIPAA) and ML use cases that are otherwise impossible. Our GitHub is at https://github.com/adap/flower, and we have a tutorial here: https://flower.dev/docs/tutorial/Flower-0-What-is-FL.html.Flower lets you train ML models on data that is distributed across many user devices or “silos” (separate data sources) without having to move the data. This approach is called federated learning.A silo can be anything from a single user device to the data of an entire organization. For example, your smartphone keyboard suggestions and auto-corrections can be driven by a personalized ML model learned from your own private keyboard data, as well as data from other smartphone users, without the data being transferred from anyone’s device.Most Mar 22, 2023 1:38 PM

Show HN: Public transportation signage based on bloom filters (rough mockup)https://github.com/jsvan/BusStopBloomfilterHello, I was running around Germany, hectically navigating public transportation, and getting lost all the time. I noticed that every station had i platforms, each used lists of n buses (trains, whatever) arriving, each has their list of m destinations. That means I would be scanning i x n x m items just to see if I was at the correct stop. As I was nervous, for every bus that arrived, I would rescan the list of stops to double check. I began thinking how I could make a better system.Linked is a very shoddy mockup of how bloom filters could be used to allow passengers O(1) lookup time for which platform+bus is the correct one. I believe it's likely for public transportation to grow increasingly more complex in the future, as population grows, and under the current list-based system, this will make the signage ever more complex. I think some bloom filter mechanism could reduce that complexity.So, here is my fantasy, my day dream. What do you think?Mar 21, 2023 4:50 PM

Show HN: Learn Languages When Watching Videos with Easehttps://intersub.ccI'd like to tell you about InterSub, a tool that I've been developing out of my pain of learning languages.I found watching videos the best working option for me because it allows me to advance in language almost without spending extra time. I watch videos - series, TV shows, documentaries etc. not less an hour a day and switching on watching in the learned language gave me an extra hour of practice. I wasn't satisfied with solutions which I'd found on the market, and I decided to make a better one.With InterSub, one can watch videos on your favorite platforms like YouTube, Netflix, Coursera and so on (soon), get instant translations of any unknown words or phrases in subtitles altogether with their context, have them automatically saved in a personal vocabulary and learn later in a fav mobile app. We designed InterSub to save one's time and energy, so a user can focus on mastering the language.We'd love to hear your thoughts and feedback on how we can make the tool even better.Mar 21, 2023 1:16 PM

How we built a social network with No-Codehttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35070143In the Fall of last year, we launched a social network for college students with No-Code.Here’s how we did it:Last summer (after having conversations with a few dozen college students), we stumbled across a very interesting insight:*80% of college students aren’t on Facebook anymore*.Sure, tools like Snapchat and Instagram exist that represent someone’s social graph, but there isn’t a central place for students to go get guidance from other peers. For students to even do simple transactions like exchanging textbooks, finding roommates, or buying sports tickets is messy.This gave us the idea that just maybe students were hungry for a new social network to fill the void Facebook left behind.Our goal was to create a digital community where students could discuss campus life, discover housing options, and buy/sell from other students.### Step 1: Build the PlatformTo make this happen, we started by setting up a (Circle)[https://circle.so/] community specifically for our first college, the UMar 8, 2023 3:27 PM
