Show HN: Otto-m8 – A low code AI/ML API deployment Platform 3 by farhan0167 | 0 comments on Hacker News. Hi all, so I've been working on this low to no code platform that allows you to spin up deep learning workloads(I'm talking LLM's, Huggingface models, etc), interconnect a bunch of them, and deploy them as API's. The idea essentially came up early in September, when experimenting with combining a Huggingface based BERT model with an LLM at work, and I realized it would be cool if I could do that instantly(especially since it was a prototype). At the time, I was considering a platform that could essentially help you train deep learning models without any code. It was my observation that much of the code required to train or even run inference on HF models have matured significantly. But before I solved that problem, I wanted to solve inference. Initially inspired by n8n and AWS Cloudformation, I built out otto-m8 (translates to automate). Given a json payload that ...

Ask HN: How do you work with people who are "not quite smart"? 24 by charles_f | 14 comments on Hacker News. Hey, This is a touchy subject, and that might be a lack of awareness or empathy from my part. But trust that it comes from a genuine willingness of making things better for everyone. We all work with people who we find "not as good", have different ways or work ethics. After being told for decades that this is usually a problem with communication or point of view, I had somewhat internalized the idea. And it is often true, but what I've realized as of late, is that there's a category of people who are not just working a different way, but are - to put it bluntly - plainly not smart. What I'm talking about is people below average when it comes to understanding concepts, or conceptualizing altogether. Their intuition is always twisted and wrong. Completely lack critical feedback. Work needs to be decomposed for them in extremely precise steps if ...

Show HN: Adventures in OCR 12 by bambax | 2 comments on Hacker News. Hello HN! In a recent "Ask HN: What are you working on?" thread, I mentioned I was working on OCRing a large book: https://ift.tt/02W1Ypv The post generated some interest so I thought I would keep HN posted. The book is Saint-Simon’s Memoirs -- an invaluable historical account of the French court under Louis XIV, full of wit, sharp observations, and of incredible literary value. I'm OCRing the edition of reference made between 1879-1930, that contains a lot of comments and footnotes: 45 volumes, ~27,000 pages. Here's a link to a blog post that describes the techniques used so far (the project is still ongoing): https://ift.tt/qMSg0Cx But you may also directly access the result here: https://ift.tt/NSVOgtM This web app (not optimized for mobile, sorry) solves a tricky problem of preloading images efficiently. In short: preloading the next image isn't enough, since browsers will repaint if an im...

Show HN: SQL Simulator – Create Subsetted Databases in Docker or K8s 7 by westonOG | 1 comments on Hacker News. Hi, I'm Weston Goodwin. I originally posted about my project on HN back in June 2023 ( https://ift.tt/qRUr89T ) and wanted to share some of the updates I’ve made since then. As a referesher SQL Simulator is a tool that simulates SQL script execution by creating a subsetted database. Below is a list of changes I've made: 1.)It now supports both Docker and Kubernetes. 2.)The database container automatically self-destructs after 15 minutes of inactivity to improve security. 3.)A Data Governor limits the amount of sensitive data that can be retrieved in a day. 4.)The K8s version can be used as a database proxy. Simply remove direct access to the database and force users to go through the K8s cluster/Data governor to view any data. The tool is available without requiring signup or credit card. I’d appreciate any feedback or suggestions. Thanks for this post reading. Doc...
