Show HN: I am creating a website that permanently solves the “Patreon Problem”
3 by halfjew22 | 0 comments on Hacker News.
[Overview]( http://bit.ly/2VjiHjX ) Please read the linked overview and let me know if that would be something you’d be interested in using. All constructive criticism is welcome. If you have any time to offer as a developer, designer, or otherwise, I’d love to work together on this with you. The code is open source ( http://bit.ly/2LH8SIj ) and so too will be the company functioning. I’m developing out in the open, so the website is live at knophy.com. I am aware of Jordan Peterson’s website and hand delivered a letter asking if we could work together. Understandably, I have received no response. If that changes, I would love to work with him and share these ideas so they can grow together in the open. From what I can piece together from scant information provided about his website, i truly believe mine solves the same problem in more novel ways across the board. Please correct me where exactly you disagree. [Overview]( http://bit.ly/2VjiHjX )

Show HN: SirixDB (Open Source/Java) – versioning through efficient snapshotting
2 by lichtenberger | 1 comments on Hacker News.
I've already posted yesterday, but I'd really love to get comments, any kind of questions, suggestions and help would be greatly appreciated as it's an Open Source project of mine (and was for others during my studies at the University of Konstanz 6 years ago). Since then I spent countless ours to bring forth the idea of a versioned storage system, especially well suited for analytical tasks for timd-varying data. Especially I'd love to discuss what documentation you need, which next steps are necessary (JSON, Cloud...), API additions or changes... I've updated the README quiet a bit, such that the set up of the asynchronous, RESTful HTTP(S) Server is easier :-) however I could use some help with the Docker stuff. http://sirix.io

Show HN: SirixDB – Storing and Querying of Time Varying/Temporal Data (Java)
2 by lichtenberger | 0 comments on Hacker News.
I'm developing a storage system for versioning data at the subfile level, especially well suited for SSDs due to its log-structured COW nature. It implements a novel versioning algorithm called sliding snapshot, a diff-algorithm which makes use of our stable record-identifiers and optionally hashes, another diff algorithm for importing similar XML-documents as a versioned resource as well as novel XPath axis to navigate not only in space, but also in time. Recently, I've implemented a higher level, asynchronous REST-API with Kotlin (Coroutines) and Vert.x in a seperate module. My goal is to put forth the idea of a versioned, distributed storage system to easily support temporal analytical tasks, which are best applied to a series of revisions in order to analyse how the data has changes. Other tasks might simply include easy undo/redo operations. http://sirix.io

Show HN: Stop Slack from controlling your brain
6 by ishan_chhabra | 0 comments on Hacker News.
HN, we talk a lot about how Slack has ruined our productivity (eg. https://ift.tt/2Q1hRFs , https://ift.tt/2GMYYlK , etc.), but nobody has taken steps to fix this. I am building Oliv to take a stand. I am a software engineer turned manager. I am guilty of enthusiastically introducing Slack in my previous organization, only to realize how it killed the pockets of focus time that my engineers need to be productive. Once you introduce Slack in an organization, all communication becomes synchronous, even if only 10% of it needs to be, and Slack’s notifications start controlling everybody’s attention. Oliv is a slackbot that manages your Slack status & Do Not Disturb based on your calendar. Oliv also auto responds and takes messages for you / escalates as needed when you are unavailable for a longer period of time. Here’s how my team and I use Oliv today to create focus and manage expectations around communication: 1. We make it a habit to schedule couple of 2h “focus time” blocks for every day on every engineer’s calendar. During that time, Oliv sets Do Not Disturb, updates the status to “is heads down” and takes messages to show later when the focus time ends. 2. For me, when I am in meetings, Oliv updates my status to “in meetings till 4p”, etc. so that my team knows I won’t be able to respond immediately. 3. During vacations, Oliv sets our status to “On vacation till Dec 31”, etc. and takes messages on our behalf. We get to enjoy our vacations, and instead of having a deluge of notifications to comb through when we come back, we get a list of clear asks from our teammates. Oliv has worked wonders for our productivity, and I hope it can do the same for you and your team. You can enable it for yourself at https://oliv.app . It’s free and you don’t need admin privileges to enable it.

I'm excited to share Automated "Sweep" Transfers are now available in the Astra app. "Sweeps" are typically only available via private banking – they automatically move any funds over a given threshold to another account so you can save more without overly affecting your cash balance.

Launch HN: Flockjay (YC W19) – $0-upfront tech sales academy for diverse talent
7 by shath2018 | 2 comments on Hacker News.
Hi HN, I’m Shaan Hathiramani, the founder of Flockjay ( https://ift.tt/2PRZUbH ). My team and I created Flockjay to make tech accessible for people from underrepresented communities. We're doing this by targeting a branch of the industry that itself has been neglected in this age of engineering bootcamps. We provide a $0-upfront online sales academy that gives underserved jobseekers the tools and training they need to break into tech. Startups are building formal sales processes earlier in their life cycles. Many struggle with predictably hiring top talent for sales. Skilled sales reps are critical for growing startups, as they accelerate revenue (4-5x their compensation) while understanding what customers want. Top performers are hard to find because they often come from non-traditional backgrounds. They are conscientious, curious, and emotionally intelligent, and have honed their skills through experience and mentorship. As an industry, we focus most of our energy on teaching people to code. Yet, in a recent poll of 250 US college and university officials, not one school offered coursework in tools like Salesforce. Meanwhile, the best sales reps are amongst the highest earners in tech. Providing this training can create economic opportunity that changes lives. I have witnessed the power of education and access in my own life. As a son of non-white immigrants, I grew up with a narrow view of opportunity. Then, 22 years ago, my parents crossed the street and asked our neighbors why their kids’ bus went one way, and mine went another. I applied for a scholarship to their private school, and my entire worldview changed. After college, I taught financial literacy in inner-city Chicago and NY. Many of my students felt overlooked in tech job searches despite being qualified. They didn’t speak the tech language, rarely had an industry connection, and lacked fluency in business software. If they did land the dream job, there was often a steep learning curve with little training or support. We built Flockjay to bridge this skills gap. Over 12 weeks part-time, students receive expert coaching, interview with top companies, and join a community of mentors. Our hired graduates make 2x or more their current income, while making real impact at breakout tech companies. They develop life-long skills for any professional transition. Our team has 10+ years of domain expertise, and with help from world-class professionals (Facebook, Flexport, Google, etc.) we’ve developed a fully-immersive curriculum that uses cutting-edge tools (Summary: https://ift.tt/2V0uWSo ). Our students pay nothing until hired, after which we take 10% of their first year income. We are working with groups representing different races, genders, sexual orientations, socioeconomic/educational backgrounds, geographic locations, and ages to attract high potential applicants. You can read more about our view of diversity here: https://ift.tt/2PRukuP . We are from places like Mississippi and Ghana, and we are building a radical company to reflect the change we want to see in the world. What we’ve learned so far is there is no single story of success. We want to hear your experiences, ideas, feedback, and stories about breaking into tech. They have been the most meaningful part of our work.

Launch HN: Deepgram (YC W16) – Scalable Speech API for Businesses
1 by stephensonsco | 0 comments on Hacker News.
Hey HN, I’m Scott Stephenson, one of the cofounders of Deepgram ( https://ift.tt/1Mpe7oE ). Getting information from recorded phone calls and meetings is time-intensive, costly, and imprecise. Our speech recognition API allows businesses to reliably translate high-value unstructured audio into accurate, parsable data. Deepgram started when my cofounder Noah Shutty and I had just finished looking for dark matter (while in a particle physics lab at University of Michigan). Noah had the idea to start recording all audio from his life, 24/7. After gathering hundreds of hours of recordings, we wanted to search inside this fresh dataset, but realized there wasn’t a good way to find specific moments. So, we built a tool utilizing the same AI techniques we used for finding dark matter particle events, and it ended up working pretty well. A few months later, we made a single page demo to show off “searching through sound” and posted to HN. Pretty soon we were in the winter batch of YC in 2016 ( https://ift.tt/2R7f5lO... ). I’d say we didn’t know what we were getting ourselves into. Speech is a really big problem with a huge market, but it’s also a tough nut to crack. For decades, companies have been unable to get real learnings from their massive amounts of recorded audio (some companies record more than 1,000,000 minutes of call center calls every single day). They have a few reasons why they record the audio — some for compliance, some for training, and some for market research. The questions they’re trying to answer are usually as simple as: - “What is the topic of the call?” - “Is this call compliant?” (did I say: my company name, my name, and “this call may be recorded”) - “Are people getting their problems solved quickly?” - “Do my agents need training?” - “What are our customers talking about? Competitors? Our latest marketing campaign?” It’s the most intimate view you can get on your customers, but the problem is so large and difficult to solve that companies pushed it into the corner over the past couple decades, only trying to mitigate the bleeding. Current tools only transcribe with around 50-60% accuracy on real-world, noisy, accented, industry-specific audio (don’t believe the ‘human level accuracy’ hype). When companies start solving problems using speech data, they first want transcription that’s accurate. After accuracy, comes scale — another big problem. Speech processing is computationally expensive and slow. Imagine trying to get into an iterative problem solving loop when you have to wait 24 hours to get your transcripts back. So we’ve set our sights on building the speech company. Competition from companies like Google, Amazon, and Nuance is real, but none of these approach speech recognition like we do. We've rebuilt the entire speech processing stack, replacing heuristics and stats based speech processing with fully end-to-end deep learning (we use CNNs and RNNs). Using GPUs, we train speech models to learn customer’s unique vocabularies, accents, product names, and acoustic environments. This can be the difference between correctly capturing “wasn’t delivered” and “was in the liver.” We’ve focused on speed since we think that’s very important for exploration and scale. Our API returns hour-long transcripts interactively in seconds. It’s a tool many businesses wish they had. So far we’ve released tools that: - transcribe speech with timestamps - support real-time streaming - have multi-channel support - understand multiple languages (in beta now) - allow you to deeply search for keywords and phrases - transcribe to phonemes - get more accurate with use Some of those are better mousetraps of things you’re familiar with and some are completely new levers to pull in your audio data. We’ve built the core on English but now we’re releasing the tools for all of the Americas. (aside: You can transfer learn speech and it works well!) Accuracy will continue to improve for transcription, but I think we can do more. It's such a large problem, and we really want to make a dent in “solving speech”. That means asking, truly: “What can a human do?“ People can, with little context, jump into a conversation and determine: - What are the words? When are they said? Who said what? - Is this person young/old? Male/Female? Exhausted/energetic? - Where is there confusion? - What language are they speaking? What’s the speaker’s accent? - What’s the topic of the conversation? Small talk or real? Is it going well? Some of those things are being worked on now: additional language support, language and accent detection, sentiment analysis, auto-summarization, topic modeling, and more. We’d love to hear your feedback and ideas.

Show HN: I built my first product without coding – TV Premiere Alert
3 by rizzke | 0 comments on Hacker News.
Hey HN, This is the first product I built without coding (see the tools below). I’m a big TV show fan, watching series almost every night instead of sleeping. I got swamped this year and I couldn’t keep up with the premiere dates of my favorite TV shows. I got tired of randomly searching for premiere dates so I decided to build something that reminds me all the premiere dates I care about. I built TvPremiereAlert which sends email reminders on the premiere days of your selected TV shows. The list of series and premiere dates are constantly updated (currently manually), making sure you never miss the premiere dates and you don’t have to spend precious time looking for this information. I’m so excited to share this early version with you guys, let me know what you think so I can make a better new version. :) Check out the tool here: https://ift.tt/2Bml0dd I wrote about the entire building process here: https://ift.tt/2UHO6MH... Here are the tools I used: Unicorn platform (building website) https://ift.tt/2R58t4F Canva (design and images) https://www.canva.com/ Jotform (collecting emails and preferences) https://jotform.com Mailchimp (storing data and sending campaigns) https://mailchimp.com/ Netlify (hosting) https://ift.tt/1oLWgSt

Show HN: A categorized database of ~400k journalists
7 by juhaszhenderson | 5 comments on Hacker News.
Hey guys! Press Hunt ( https://presshunt.co ) is a categorized database of almost 400k journalists, reporters, and media outlets. Finding the right journalists to pitch your business to––then finding their email address––is a nightmare. The data is spread out all over the internet, down the google rabbit hole, news sites, and twitter accounts. Research can take hundreds of hours on it’s own, not even counting the time it takes to run an effective email campaign. Over the last year we’ve run hundreds of PR campaigns for companies like Instacart and Dos Toros. Our campaigns have been featured by hundreds of media outlets like The Washington Post, The Independent, and VICE. We started out building media lists by hand, but that sucked. We built crawlers to compile the 1.0 of this data, then purged, cleaned, and enriched it all. With this update we’ve added millions of data points: new tags, phone numbers, journalist media outlet, photos, and more! Since our 1.0 almost a hundred companies (startups, photographers, PR agencies, etc.) have used Press Hunt, logging almost 80k searches. For our 2.0 we’ve completely revamped the UI, updated & enriched our dataset (with new attributes like phone numbers, social media accounts, and millions of new data points), and built out a new system for you to save journalists to media lists and export their contact info to CSV (so running email campaigns to them is now even easier). Like our 1.0, journalists are categorized by tags representing what they’re likely to write about next (based on what they’ve written about before, where they write, and what they tweet about). The dataset includes emails, phone numbers, where they write, and their industry focuses. We’d love feedback––thanks for reading this - Matt & Aaron

Show HN: In NSW, if Google doesn't track you, you can't pay Public School fees
4 by mastazi | 1 comments on Hacker News.
I have recently enabled the "resistFingerprinting" option in Firefox[1], in order to prevent tracking based on browser fingerprinting. However I have found out that once I've done that, Google's reCAPTCHA becomes almost impossible to solve. Normally I wouldn't care too much about Google, the problem is that in Australia, reCAPTCHA is used by Westpac bank, for processing payments on behalf of the Department of Education of New South Wales. In other words, you can't pay your child's public school fees online, unless you agree to Google tracking you. How to test: create a form with reCAPTCHA or just use a pre-existing one like [2], then try and solve the reCAPTCHA while resistFingerprinting is set to false (default setting)[1]. Now change it to true, and try to solve the reCAPTCHA once again. [1] https://ift.tt/2AT5Tro... [2] https://ift.tt/2yzzho6

4 by bretthellman | 1 comments on Hacker News.
After a year in closed beta sweating the details, we’re excited to share Matter with everyone. We believe: 1. Peer feedback is the silver bullet to reaching your aspirations. 2. People perform better when they hear monthly peer feedback (proven by science too!). 3. Everyone deserves the opportunity to achieve mastery, learn, grow, and be respected by their peers. Matter makes feedback easier, pleasant, and more productive. A couple customer quotes: "The app is amazing. Everything about it, from the interface to the way in which I am able to send and receive feedback is amazing." - Product Manager at Dribbble "Matter is an empathetic experience which directly speaks to your heart, connecting yourself to your peers and driving betterment." - Designer at Adobe "As knowledge workers, we are paid to use our brains. We spend too little time improving how our brains work. Matter is an incredibly powerful way to grow your skills." - Product Leader at Airbnb We hope you'll try Matter and share your feedback -> https://matterapp.com

Show HN: I'm 17 and I created a Forth interpreter for the TI-84+ calculator
3 by DogestFogey | 1 comments on Hacker News.
https://ift.tt/2E3eqez Hi HN! For the past year I've been getting into programming in Z80 assembly (especially for the TI-84+). More recently I've been learning about the Forth programming language and after a lot of searching online (in vain) for a Forth interpreter for the TI-84, I decided to write one myself. It's been fun demoing this to others, because it's a very unexpected use of a calculator. It's my largest project to date, and I'm interested to know what the HN community thinks, please feel free to critique my code! -- Ben

Show HN: A sum-type decorator for python
2 by vikiomega9 | 0 comments on Hacker News.
I wrote this quick decorator for sum-types and was looking for feedback on if it makes sense. I had to do something similar for work with weird looking if-else blocks with type checks. I'm also looking for pointers to existing libs that add this and other FP features to python. Comments on the state of FP-like python at work are welcome! https://ift.tt/2Qx6PeA
