Could you please provide the text you’d like me to translate?: Hello everyone, I was always thinking about how I can increase my finances to get out of the rat race. Apart from increasing my income, the other approach I did is to reduce my expenses and hence I started my journey on expense tracking.
I have tried a few apps and most of the time these apps are too complicated and I didn’t manage to consistently key in my expense. Though there are some apps that provide link to bank account spending but I think that defeats the purpose of expense tracker since I believe only by manually input your spending in, only you’ll be aware of your spending.
This drives me to have a thought about how can I improve this and I decided to create my own app to make this work. I created Rolly: AI Money Tracker - a new AI expense tracker where you can easily record your transactions just by chatting with our bot Rolly and it will automatically record and categorise the transaction into the most suitable category (you can also create any of your own category and it will also take care of it in consideration). Demo video here. More features like budgeting are on the way, stay tuned!

Anyone that have any feedback or needs for any new feature, do feel free to let me know and I’m happy to discuss and incorporate it. Thanks.

URL: https://github.com/twpayne/go-jsonstruct
Author: twp
Description: If you need to unmarshal arbitrary JSON or YAML data (e.g. consuming data from a REST/JSON endpoint with no defined schema) then https://github.com/twpayne/go-jsonstruct will automatically create your Go structs for you. What’s special about go-jsonstruct compared to other JSON-to-Go generators, is that go-jsonstruct can accept multiple documents as input and generate the most specific Go struct into which all of the documents can be unmarshalled. You can give it a few example responses from your REST/JSON endpoint and go-jsonstruct will infer the struct for you.

Please provide the text you would like me to translate, and I’ll be happy to assist!: Hello HN! Fernando from Backmesh. I got tired of having to spin up a backend to use the OpenAI or Anthropic API and figure out authentication, usage and error analytics per user in my web or mobile apps so I created Backmesh, the Firebase for AI Apps. It lets you safely call any LLM API from your app without a backend with usage analytics and rate limits per user.

Could you please provide the text you would like me to translate?: Hey HN,
I recently built a web app called Hummify. It allows you to hum, sing or upload a snippet of a song you can’t remember, and the community helps you identify it. It’s a simple, user-oriented solution for those times when you have a tune in your head but don’t know what it’s called.
Features:
-Record or upload audio directly from your browser -Community-based song identification -Stylish audio player with waveform visualization
Built with React, Firebase and Web Audio API.
I would love to hear any feedback or suggestions!

Author: andrewpareles
Could you please provide the text you’d like me to translate?: Hey HN, we’re Andrew and Mat and we’re building Void, an open source Cursor alternative.
Our editor is an open-source VSCode fork. Our primary goal is to create a fully-featured AI editor where you can keep your data completely private. Going open source is really important because it let us take the logic that would normally live on a server, like prompt building or message handling, and run it on your local machine instead. This way you can do things like self-host Llama 3.1 or Gemma and never have your data leave your computer. You can also just send your prompts directly to foundational models (GPT4o, Claude) without going through a middleman API.
Another exciting part of the project is that we have full control over the IDE, and can build our own native features. Normally if you want to build an AI tool you have to make the same chat UI, history management, filesystem indexing, LSP, VSCode integrations, etc. We think we can standardize all these into a nice native API you can just plug into instead. It would be awesome to create a centralized place that lets people build advanced open source tools like AI edits across many files, and even agents, in an IDE we’re all used to.
Let us know what you think of the idea. We’ve really enjoyed working on it and are super excited to see where it goes :)

Author: furiousteabag
It seems like you might have forgotten to include the text you’d like me to translate. Please provide the content, and I’ll be happy to help!: Hey HN! We’re Alex and Szymon from Bluesight (https://bluesight.ai/), where we’re developing a foundation model for satellite data. We’ve created a demo to showcase the current capabilities of state-of-the-art models and identify areas for improvement.
Our demo allows you to search for objects in San Francisco using natural language. You can look for things like Tesla cars, dry patches, boats, and more.
Key features:
- Search using text or by selecting an object from the image as a source (“aim” icon)
- Toggle between object search (default) and tile search (“big” toggle, useful when contextual information matters, like tennis courts)
- Adjust results with downvotes (useful when results are water images)
- Click on tiles to locate them on a map
- Control the number of retrieved tiles with a slider
We use OpenAI’s CLIP model (https://openai.com/index/clip/) to put texts and images into the same embedding space. We do a similarity search within this space using text query or source image. We are using CLIP finetuned on pairs of satellite images and OpenStreetMap (https://www.openstreetmap.org/) tags (https://github.com/wangzhecheng/SkyScript) because vanilla clip performs poorly on satellite data. We pre-segment objects using Meta’s Segment Anything Model (https://segment-anything.com/) and pre-compute CLIP embeddings for each object.
We’d love to hear your thoughts! What worked well for you? Where did it fail? What features do you wish it had? Any real-world problems you think this could help with?

Description: REPOST! (to get more feedback from HN)
An exciting aspect of what I’m working on is that users can create their own playlists. For example, you can provide a description of what you’re learning, such as a lesson title, and the pipeline will create a youtube playlist. Since the content is highly customized, it will be relevant and high-quality, matching current lessons or lectures in school or university.
I’m trying to find a product structure that users will find valuable and effective.
The web app is completely free to use right now as I figure out the best model.

Author: StratusBen
Could you please provide the text you would like translated?: Hi HN,
I’m Co-Founder & CEO of Vantage: a cloud cost observability and optimization platform. We just recently launched support for Github Cost Support within Vantage to view costs for Actions, Shared Storage and Copilot.
We’ve heard from people that it’s been difficult to view GitHub costs; the billing APIs provided insufficient granularity, and the generated CSVs required manual download and review. Often, people did not track their GitHub usage at all throughout the month, and they looked at their bill only at the end of the month. Lastly some people that used self-managed runners, including those that run on Kubernetes or on virtual machines, found it difficult to associate these compute costs with their overall GitHub spend. Allocating build costs by repository, user, or organization was not possible through the GitHub-provided tooling without time-consuming and manual effort.
Users can grant Vantage access to their GitHub billing data by inviting a Vantage-owned email address as a billing administrator to their Enterprise. This billing user allows Vantage to download the detailed usage CSV for maximum billing granularity for GitHub Actions, Storage, and Copilot. For example, customers can see per-user, repository, and workflow-level billing for Actions builds, as well as the detailed usage report for GitHub Enterprise, which enables tracking the license usage of Enterprise members.
Here’s a video to see this in action and we’d love to hear your feedback:

URL: https://author.quickpoint.me
Author: gregorywegory
Could you please provide the text you would like me to translate?: Show HN: QuickPoint. Make presentations, web pages etc. with a YAML like syntax.
I started this project during lockdown. Remember that?? It developed from an idea I had for exchanging value in URLs. The idea being that if , for example, you had a subscription to the NYT and if they linked from their article to an article in the WSJ the WSJ would a receive a small payment from your subscription. The idea seemed much too abstract for any stakeholders in publishing organizations so i thought I’d better build my own publishing platform. I didn’t think it would take this long but here it is (after two kids) in a usable form. You can use if for anything and publish your anything to the web. Down the line you can charge for your creations.
The language is YAML like and any good names for it are welcome. The viewer is a React component that you can drop into any webpage with a one-liner, the aim is to open source that. It’s probably full of bugs so do let me know.
It’s a fun thing and works great on mobile. I imagine harried developers who need to give presentations might find it useful in it’s current form.

Please provide the text that you’d like me to translate, and I’ll be happy to help!: Hi HN,
I’m a freelance developer, and I built SnazzyPDF in my spare time to solve a problem I encountered frequently: converting structured data into PDF documents. The existing solutions I found either required manually creating a template or forced you to transform your data into a specific structure. I wanted a tool where you could simply input arbitrary JSON data and get a decent-looking document out. That’s why I built SnazzyPDF.
* Works with any JSON: No need to restructure your data. SnazzyPDF handles (almost) any JSON data, including deeply nested arrays and objects.
* Use REST API or drag & drop web interface.
* Zero configuration: Convert your JSON to a finished PDF in seconds. Start simple and incrementally add customization.
* Save time: Automate PDF generation for reports, logs, or other structured data. No more manual formatting or custom export workflows.
* Free tier for testing or light use, paid plans that scale for larger needs.
I’d love to hear feedback from the HN community. Check it out, and let me know what you think! I’m happy to answer any questions. Thanks!

Author: Tanzirul
Could you please provide the text you would like to have translated?: Hey everyone,
I’ve just rebuilt my SaaS, Replyhub[1], a tool to find high-potential leads from Reddit, X, and LinkedIn. The tool scans relevant posts related to your business, analyzes them, and identifies potential leads. It then alerts you so you can either reach out to them or engage with the posts directly.
Here’s the backstory: When I first launched Replyhub three months ago, it was designed to monitor relevant discussions on Reddit and automatically reply to them. The goal was to streamline engagement and surface potential leads. However, several issues quickly arose. The AI-generated auto-replies started disrupting discussions, making them less natural and less helpful. Additionally, some users exploited the tool by creating new Reddit accounts to spam discussions with automatic replies. To address these problems and maintain community standards, Reddit began shadow-banning these new accounts.
Faced with these challenges, I decided to rethink the approach. I removed the auto-reply feature entirely, shifting to a model where users can manually engage with discussions. This adjustment fosters more meaningful and respectful interactions, allowing users to contribute value to conversations and introduce their services only when it’s truly relevant.
In the latest update, I’ve expanded Replyhub to include X/Twitter and LinkedIn. It now monitors real-time discussions across all three platforms, helping you find potential leads who are ready to purchase a solution to their problem.
Any feedback or advice is welcome, and I look forward to hearing your thoughts.

Author: artembugara
It seems you provided the word “Description” without additional context. Could you please provide more details or the specific text you’d like me to translate?: Hi HN! We partnered with the Atlas team to build a tool called AI Predict [0] that allows anyone to ask any question about the future and get a thoroughly researched, AI-generated prediction on how likely it is to be true.
How it works: Atlas replicated a Berkeley paper [1] that showed LLMs could make predictions as accurate as the crowd. We’re using a mix of models from OpenAI and Anthropic, with information retrieval powered by NewsCatcher [2].
The system is live and fully functional, though it might struggle with hyper-local questions outside of the public domain (e.g., “Will I have chicken for dinner tonight?“). But we’re intentionally NOT stopping it from answering any question, so fire away!
What makes it different:
- Free to use: Anyone can ask any question about the future that they care about, whether it’s a broad societal trend or a specific personal decision.
- Transparent: The tool is based on a proven reasoning model and provides links to all sources. You can see its track record on public predictions [3].
- Open-source: We’ve released a simplified open-source version [4] to give people a better sense of how it works.
Why we built this: We’re forecasting nerds and loved the idea behind the Berkeley paper. Friends and family kept asking us to make predictions for them, so we figured we’d build a frontend around the system so they could use it themselves. Don’t use it to decide where to buy a house or anything serious. But we think it’s a good starting place when doing research. AI Predict tackles prediction questions using transparent, objective reasoning (mostly Bayesian analysis) and links to all its news sources.
We’d love for the HN community to try it out and share feedback ([email protected]). Let us know what you think!

URL: https://hackaday.com/2024/09/12/review-ifixits-fixhub-may-be-the-last-soldering-iron-you-ever-buy/
Author: kwiens
Description: After years of making screwdrivers and teaching people to repair electronics, we just made our first electronic tool. It’s been a journey for us to build while hewing to our repairable principles. We’re really excited about it.
It’s a USB-C powered soldering iron and smart battery power hub. Super repairable, of course. Our goal is to make soldering so easy everyone can do it: https://www.ifixit.com/fixhub
We didn’t want to make just another iron, so we spent years sweating the details and crafting something that met our exacting standards. This is a high-performance iron: it can output 100W of heat, gets to soldering temperature in under 5 seconds, and automatically cools off when you set it down. The accelerometer detects when you pick it up and heats it back up. Keeping the iron at a lower temperature while you’re not soldering shouold prolong the life of the tip.
What’s the difference between this iron and other USB-C irons on the market? Here’s a quick list:
Higher power (our Smart Iron is 100W, competitors max out at 60W over USB-C, 88W over DC Supply)
Heat-resistant storage cap (you just have to try this out, it’s a real game changer in day-to-day use) Polished user experience
A warranty and a local company to talk to (I can’t find any contact information for Miniware)
Comfier / more natural grip
Shorter soldering tip length
No-tangle, heat-resistant cable
Locking ring on the cable, so it can’t snag and get disconnected (this happens to me all the time on other irons)
More intuitive settings, either on the Power Station or on the computer
We used Web Serial https://caniuse.com/web-serial for the interface, which is only supported in Chromium browsers. The biggest bummer with that is that no mobile browsers support it, yet. Hopefully that changes soon.
Hardware is hard! It’s been a journey for us. Happy to answer any questions about how we made it.

I’m excited to announce the release of the new sync engine for SignalDB. This feature is designed to make data synchronization more efficient and flexible, whether you’re building offline-first apps or need reliable syncing with remote servers.
Key features include:
* Centralized SyncManager: Manage all collections’ sync from one place.
* Backend-Agnostic: Works with REST, GraphQL, and custom backends.
* Offline-First: Ensures smooth operation even without an internet connection.
* Conflict Resolution: Automatically resolves conflicts using a “first change wins” strategy.
Thanks! I’m looking forward to your feedback!

Author: grbsh
It seems like you provided only a single word, “Description.” Could you please share the full text you’d like translated?: Hey HN, I wanted to share a simple command line tool I made that has sped up and simplified my LLM assisted coding workflow. Whenever possible, I’ve been trying to use Claude as a first pass when implementing new features / changes. But I found that depending on the type of change I was making, I was spending a lot of thought finding and deciding which source files should be included in the prompt. The need to copy/paste each file individually also becomes a mild annoyance.
First, I implemented repogather --all
, which unintelligently copies all sources files in your repository to the clipboard (delimited by their relative filepaths). To my surprise, for less complex repositories, this alone is often completely workable for Claude — much better than pasting in the just the few files you are looking to update. But I never would have done it if I had to copy/paste everything individually. 200k is quite a lot of tokens!
But as soon as the repository grows to a certain complexity level (even if it is under the input token limit), I’ve found that Claude can get confused by different unrelated parts / concepts across the code. It performs much better if you make an attempt to exclude logic that is irrelevant to your current change. So I implemented repogather "<query here>"
, e.g. repogather "only files related to authentication"
. This uses gpt-4o-mini with structured outputs to provide a relevance score for each source file (with automatic exclusions for .gitignore patterns, tests, configuration, and other manual exclusions with --exclude <pattern>
).
gpt-4o-mini is so cheap and fast, that for my ~8 dev startup’s repo, it takes under 5 seconds and costs 3-4 cents (with appropriate exclusions). Plus, you get to watch the output stream while you wait which always feels fun.
The retrieval isn’t always perfect the first time — but it is fast, which allows you to see what files it returned, and iterate quickly on your command. I’ve found this to be much more satisfying than embedding-search based solutions I’ve used, which seem to fail in pretty opaque ways.
https://github.com/gr-b/repogather
Let me know if it is useful to you! Always love to talk about how to better integrate LLMs into coding workflows.

Description: Hi,
I’ve formulated a rough spec for a new note taking markup language I’ve been using for a little while.
It’s specifically built with a continuous logging workflow in mind where you take notes in a mostly append only format. It supports the main constructs which I find important in my notes: todos, TILs (today I learned), QTSs (questions to self) and event reminders. Its still in alpha so at the moment so any feedback would be amazing.
Yes you can achieve much the same result with orgmode or markdown. But having a simple spec like this opens the doors to more workflow specific tooling in the future.
We have a vscode plugin for those who use it and plugins for other editors shouldn’t be too difficult to build given the simplicity of the language, I just haven’t got that far yet.

Author: jmpavlec
Could you please provide the text you would like to have translated?: Hi all, I’ve been working on this project for a while in my spare time. Today is the first day I am sharing it with a larger audience.
What is it?
It is a set of online games (4 at the moment) which can be played in person with a central screen (like a TV) or remotely via video chat with screen sharing. In short, there is a host screen which shows most of the game’s activity. Players join via their own device like a phone/tablet/laptop and use that as a controller. It’s playable in 9 languages and doesn’t require any downloads. Most games revolve around being creative in some shape or form. None of the games require fast reflexes and can be played by just about anyone. The host screen can be a browser, a Chromecast) or an Amazon Fire Stick (Amazon app store: https://www.amazon.com/Gametje-GAMETJE/dp/B0D8T2TVBB/). One of my goals was to make it easy to get started with minimal downloads/setup.
Why did I create it?
I’ve been a player of Jackbox games myself for 10+ years but I always found their support for other languages a bit lacking. I also found the fragmentation between app stores a bit frustrating and needing to buy a new pack each year. I own their games on PC and PS4 but I can’t share a “license” between them. I designed Gametje with these issues in mind. It is playable in multiple languages with more being added regularly (feel free to request one). You can play it from any device with a web browser. There is no need to install it via Steam or a game console. All games are available in one place with no “packs” to buy.
What’s up with the name?
I have been living in the Netherlands for some years and part of my original motivation stems from wanting to give my friends here a game to play in their native language. It’s way easier to be witty/funny in your mother tongue after all! Because of that, I wanted to incorporate something Dutch into the site’s name. The suffix ‘tje’ is one of the diminutive endings in Dutch and is meant to soften a word or make it “smaller”. Game + tje = Gametje, or a little game. I have been informed by native Dutch speakers that it should have been ‘Gamepje’ to be “correct” but I liked the way Gametje sounded better.
Where can I try it?
You can try it out as a guest without signing up in order to get a feel for the games. Clicking into each game gives a short explanation and a small example of the gameplay. After creating a game, you can join from another browser window or device. You can also add AI players if you want to try it out on your own or you can organize a game in the discord channel: https://discord.gg/pgvBcJDH with other Hacker News users (You just need to be able to share the host screen). If you sign up for an account, you can opt-in as an alpha tester and see the new games as they are developed (There is one hidden behind the alpha flag at the moment). It’ll also keep track of all your previous games and make sure not to duplicate content.
What am I looking for?
I am interested in feedback about the whole concept and also the gameplay. Is it fun? What could be improved? UI design isn’t my forte so I’m aware the main site is a bit plain but the core functionality and gameplay are there.
Hopefully the provider I am using to host the backend will hold up. Happy to share the more technical details as well for those that are interested. Thanks!

Could you please provide the text you would like me to translate?: Hey all,
I’m a solo dev building tools for my own problems.
Currently, I have 3 active Trello ‘power-ups’ (apps) and constantly get emails asking to upgrade or unsubscribe.
So I made Email Autopilot, a rule based automation tool - it reads connected emails and applies the rules, for example upgrading a stripe accounts for a user, and then sending an email back confirming the changes.
It works great for me, already saving me about an hours worth of email support over the last week. I’m sure others have slightly different use-cases, please let me know what you think and how the product can be improved to your needs!

Description: The idea came about when I was trying to understand the data modeling of an older application and wondering how to best modify it to add a feature or fix something. The goal with Nabubit is to make creating, managing and evolving database architectures easier no matter the database or the application framework you’re using.

Please provide the text you would like me to translate.: Hey there. We built the ZenStack open-source TypeScript toolkit on top of Prisma ORM. It adds an Authorization layer to the schema and then automatically generates both APIs and frontend hooks for you. You can choose whatever frontend framework, like React, Vue, or Svelte, and the full-stack framework, such as Next.js, Remix, Sveltekit, and Nuxt, to work with.
The generated hooks mirror the Prisma client, providing type-safe frontend queries similar to GraphQL and ensuring a consistent coding experience across both the front end and backend.
We hope it can fill some of the gaps left by the absence of frameworks like Rails or Laravel in the JavaScript world.

Could you please provide the text you would like translated?: We use an SDK (shake-to-report) to extract a lot of information (Session Recording, API/Network Calls, Crash Logs, Device Details, etc) when a bug is reported on Native Android/iOS. Then all these comprehensive bug reports can be viewed on our Dashboard, where there’s also an AI suggested solution for all reported bugs.
We need more contributors to expand this solution to React, Flutter, Unity, other cross-platform Frameworks.

The term “Author” translates directly to “Author” in English, as it is commonly used in the same context. If you need a more specific context or additional text to translate, please provide it!: shindekaran

It looks like you provided only the word “Description.” Please provide the full text or context that you would like me to translate for you.: Hey everyone! I’ve just completed my first real pet project - a Sorting Algorithms Visualizer, built with React. GitHub repo: https://github.com/Fedorse/Sorting-Algorithm-Visualizer Live demo: https://algorithms-virid.vercel.app/ It was a great learning experience, and i hope this project helps others visualize how sorting algorithms work.
