Hi - I am trying to create a tool for product designers to learn and review their design. What I am looking to do is to allow designers to create a design, and pass it on to a tool to get feedback. Currently OpenAI and Anthropic models aren't that great at looking at UI elements and understanding their relationship and hierarchy (like font weights, shadows, symmetry, etc..). Any suggestions on...
Hi Hackers! I am working on a problem on a code review tool for designers and have a use case I am trying to solve with GenAI but not able to solve well. LLM models are trained on huge corpus of text, and many multimodal models also on images with text caption that can identify objects in the images. However, models are not necessarily trained on more abstract visual concepts like aesthetics,...
I am looking to create a board where one side of the board can be played remotely and the pieces can be moved on a board automatically based on an electric input. What I am trying to understand is what technology can help in this.So the problem statement is that if there is a board with many pieces on it, and I need to move a specific piece to a specific position, how can that be done? In my...
The yahoo india account is the main business account running for past 15yrs in the family and getting active communication from customers. The account was recently hacked and when reported on x.com, the account was suspended but it can't be accessed now. There is no way to get help esp because this is a Indian account and the support in India isn't there. Paid support is from US and a few other...
Environment, people, technology are changing rapidly. What are some worthwhile problems or ideas that you think would be important to solve or work on by end of the decade.
Hi!I had launched a product around effective hiring recently and have been lucky to get some customer usage and feedback from the early community. One of the recurring feedbacks has been around in which direction should the product grow - as a SaaS, as a network or something in the middle.Extrapolating many of the discussions has led to some kind of a “of the people, by the people, for the...
Currently doing on and off in the vicinity of a grand a month.
The revenues are a few $100s currently though I have not been doing a lot of marketing for it yet since the beta launch resulted in a lot of feedback that I am trying to evaluate and address.
Also, if someone is interested in hiring/recruitment/professional networking space, would love to connect! Email in profile
Hi, just sharing an observation I had recently, not sure if it's an anomaly with my post or a more common pattern.Recently I had posted a Show HN link via news.ycombinator.com webapp but that post died in a couple of hours and I wasn't able to put a comment on that either like I have seen in other Show HNs. Nor were other HN accounts able to see itHowever, when I posted the same link again via...
Many of us have been through the experience of either sitting through interviews or taking interviews, and very quickly the interview process becomes a really big chore of asking the same canned questions, and hearing or giving the same canned responses most of the times.
Having sat through taking hundreds of interviews in the past decade or so, every now and then I would ask that there is got to be a better way to do this. I was bored to death taking skills tests, or asking DS-Algo, product, design questions, and trying to glean insights and read between the lines. And I could see with the candidates also having interviewing multiple places at the same time that they were equally jaded yet had to feign a lot of interest and enthusiasm.
So I thought there should be a better way to tackle this, and one of the thoughts was to get first hand information about these aspects of a candidate from people who already know the candidates, rather than to try to intuit about the candidates. This is how the draft of NitroHire started, to help get this information to a hiring manager fast, so that the subsequent interviews can be shorter, more interesting and fun because of the additional context.
The first version of NitroHire supports getting reference check very quickly with predefined questions templates for almost all roles in product and development teams (build your own questionnaire from templates feature coming soon), takes less than a minute for hiring managers and candidates, and gives a very detailed and info rich report to the hiring manager.
I would love for you to try our NitroHire and also learn from your experiences and feedback on how we can make interviews suck less and make hiring decisions faster!
I am Devang, creator of NitroHire. It's still rough at the edges, yet I am very excited to share this on Show HN!

Looking for a co-founder to try and build different ways to interview and assess candidates. There is an MVP currently that I have developed which has helped garner good feedback. Now it's time to get these users and multiple other perspectives to get to the actual product.
Hi - I want to learn how you manage to do knowledge transfer in tech teams when people are leaving or new folks joining? Is it more of keeping things documented in Confluence or something, or are there any better processes or methods to do it?
Was planning to open source the tool but didn't really get the time then - great to see you guys solving it well! Congratulations!!
Hi HN! When you have a production system running, every now and then there are requirements to made a DB update because of some bug in the code, or for some use cases which were not thought of earlier. How do you handle such updates?The common way I know is the access is given to a small number of trusted people who make the updates. Are there any other ways or best practices such that the...
I am building a serverless application where in every invocation of a serverless function, I would like to schedule another future call with different payload and url. I am using Vercel to deploy the lambdas.However, I am not able to find a simple way to just schedule the next function call, ie, an online utility that just takes (datetime, url, payload, headers) as inputs and makes an API call...
