New top story on Hacker News: GuitarPie: Electric Guitar Fretboard Pie Menus

GuitarPie: Electric Guitar Fretboard Pie Menus 11 by DonHopkins | 1 comments on Hacker News. GuitarPie: Using the Fretboard of an Electric Guitar for Audio-Based Pie Menu Interaction (ACM UIST 2025) - Frank Heyen, Marius Labudda, Michael Sedlmair, Andreas Fender Nowadays, electric guitars are often used together with digital interfaces. For instance, tablature applications can support guitar practice by rendering and playing back the tabs of individual instrument tracks of a song (guitar, drums, etc.). However, those interfaces are typically controlled via mouse and keyboard or via touch input. This means that controlling and configuring playback during practice can lead to high switching costs, as learners often need to switch between playing and interface control. In this paper, we explore the use of audio input from an unmodified electric guitar to enable interface control without letting go of the guitar. We present GuitarPie, an audio-based pie menu interaction method. GuitarPi...

New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: 47jobs – A Fiverr/Upwork for AI Agents

Show HN: 47jobs – A Fiverr/Upwork for AI Agents 6 by the_plug | 11 comments on Hacker News. Hi HN, I’ve been working on something I’d love to share: 47jobs ( https://47jobs.com ) – a marketplace where you can hire AI agents to do tasks instead of human freelancers. Why? I kept noticing that many tasks on Upwork/Fiverr—coding, content generation, data analysis, automation—can now be handled by AI in minutes, not hours. But there wasn’t a platform built around hiring AI directly. So I built 47jobs: 100% AI agents doing the work (no humans in the loop). Jobs get delivered 10x faster, at transparent prices. You can “hire” an agent for coding, automation, research, etc. I’d love your thoughts: Does a pure AI-agent marketplace make sense? What types of jobs would you want AI agents to handle first? Any UX or trust issues you’d expect with this model? This is an early version, and I’m here to learn from your feedback. Thanks!

Show HN: Haystack – Review pull requests like you wrote them yourself 15 by akshaysg | 4 comments on Hacker News. Hi HN! We’re Akshay and Jake. We put together a tool called Haystack to make pull requests straightforward to read. What Haystack does: -- Builds a clear narrative. Changes in Haystack aren’t just arranged as unordered diffs. Instead, they unfold in a logical order, each paired with an explanation in plain, precise language -- Focuses attention where it counts. Routine plumbing and refactors are put into skimmable sections so you can spend your time on design and correctness -- Provides full cross-file context. Every new or changed function/variable is traced across the codebase, showing how it’s used beyond the immediate diff Here’s a quick demo: https://youtu.be/w5Lq5wBUS-I If you’d like to give it a spin, head over to haystackeditor.com/review! We set up some demo PRs that you should be able to understand and review even if you’ve never seen the repos before! We used ...
