Show HN: Webhooks for Any Event 8 by halotrope | 0 comments on Hacker News. Hi, co-founder of markets.sh here. We are doing a lot of news processing and analysis around stocks and companies. One feature people like to use is “alerts” at certain price points. We have now extended this with LLM filters on the whole news feed so that you can create (near) real-time webhooks on arbitrary events like: - Notify me when Nvidia is worth 10 trillion - Notify me about AI breakthroughs - Notify me when Intel is the market leader again - Notify me about successful Starship launches - Notify me when a war breaks out - Notify me about bankrupt unicorn startups - Notify me about significant economic events The feature is still very early. If you write that you’re from Hacker News in the support chat, I’ll give personal support. Would greatly appreciate all feedback

Show HN: I generated API documentation for all Java packages 6 by martin_dd | 0 comments on Hacker News. Hi HN! I'm excited to share a project I've been working on for the past year: Docland. It is an API documentation browser that generates documentation on demand (through compilation, not LLMs) for Java packages. Instead of relying on Javadoc, the built-in doc generator, I created the engine from scratch to give the documentations a modern look, build fast search indexes, and enable link resolution to other packages. I built Docland because I constantly found it frustrating to locate and view API definitions when programming. You'd have to Google the function/class name, skip all the SEO articles, find the page you want, yet the documentation might be poorly formatted or does not support searching. So I thought it would be really cool to create a documentation site dedicated for programming languages and libraries, so that you can find the docs all in one place with a

Show HN: We open sourced our entire text-to-SQL product 37 by aazo11 | 4 comments on Hacker News. Long story short: We (Dataherald) just open-sourced our entire codebase, including the core engine, the clients that interact with it and the backend application layer for authentication and RBAC. You can now use the full solution to build text-to-SQL into your product. The Problem: modern LLMs write syntactically correct SQL, but they struggle with real-world relational data. This is because real world data and schema is messy, natural language can often be ambiguous and LLMs are not trained on your specific dataset. Solution: The core NL-to-SQL engine in Dataherald is an LLM based agent which uses Chain of Thought (CoT) reasoning and a number of different tools to generate high accuracy SQL from a given user prompt. The engine achieves this by: - Collecting context at configuration from the database and sources such as data dictionaries and unstructured documents which are stored in a

Show HN: Drivr – VR with real vehicles [video] 5 by greghgradwell | 2 comments on Hacker News. This project combines VR with a real vehicle that you are controlling (or is controlling itself, in some scenarios). One advantage this has over traditional VR motion experiences is that your senses all agree with each other, thus greatly reducing the likelihood of motion sickness. The go-kart seen in this video is drive-by-wire and steer-by-wire, so the system will not let the player exit the defined safe area. If a player goes off course, the vehicle will take control, and return them to the start. The autonomous capabilities also allow for games where the player can focus on other objectives other than driving, such as target shooting. No infrastructure is required other than the vehicle and an open place to drive (which honestly has been the most challenging part lately). If you're interested in this project, I'd love to connect!

Flying planes with a JavaScript autopilot (2023) 10 by TheRealPomax | 0 comments on Hacker News. A (lengthy!) tutorial on how to write your own JS-based autopilot code to fly planes in Microsoft Flight Simulator with a web page to both visualize the flight and control the AP. Note that this is a complete do-over of a previous page that used a combination of Python and JavaScript, and only covered basic autopilot functionality. This rewrite threw all of that out, and goes much, much further: you just want to have the plane take off without having to do anything? Check, this tutorial covers auto-takeoff. Flying with waypoint-based navigation, not by "programming airports and radio beacons one letter at a time with a jog-dial" but by just placing markers on a map and dragging those around as you please, mid-flight, Google Maps style? Check. After all, why would we not, putting a map on a webpage is super easy (barely an inconvenience). In fact, let's throw in flight plan
