Does this solve the 2 year old bug of recitation hell?
This is great. Some positivity, since many comments are on the negative side.

It's exactly what I need to connect .py with .ts

Re:Why you should probably be using SQLite on Friday October 27, 2023 @10:30AM (#38038926)
I'd like SQLite to run on client side with persistency.

Not specific to SQLite itself, but that would enable a lot of uses for it.

Needs some sort of webhook / API access through your dashboard.

I'd be interested in running a cronjob with my custom SQL and sending you a batch payload to process the emails.

Thanks for sharing - looks handy for games

I'm curios how much more difficult is generative 3D?

We are barely able to generate 2D 1080p images, without artefacts using diffusion methods. How much more complex is the jump to production grade 3D?

As someone creating re-usable 3D product models on Polymock @ https://polymock.com the bigest issue for me, is that you want your models to be editable. 3D modellers want to post-process and add tweaks to existing 3D models. Current AI generators lack this layering structures.

What I actually want, is a 3D generator for textures / materials. It should be a much simpler task for current AI.

At the moment, the state of 3D generators is slowly ripening for indie game developers. I'm sure that in the near future, the models will be high-enough quality to generate a basic character set.

Others have mentioned it, but I think NVIDIA has an edge in 3D synthesis & rendering. OpenAI is arguable the leader in consumer text-transformers - I wonder the goal for releasing this POC (I don't think they will allocate any serious resource here)

I wonder how it deals with any migrations? What if I decide to connect different components later? Or add a new attribute / column?

Ask HN: List your "brandable" domains to find them a new home

I'm surely not the only one who has a whole collection of domain names. As much as I dislike squatters when registering them, I probably happen to be one sometimes.Comment and list domains that you can rent out to others to validate their ideas with an option to buy it out completely. Or swap domain for others. (I'm tired of having the same portfolio).Mine are:hedgelet.com - (Finance / Hedging...

I had to close 11 popups
After going full time and all in on the project, I am delighted to present the new & innovative way to create 3D animations, directly in your web browser.

For hackers out there who wish to know the stack - it's a 82K line codebase with React, Konva and ThreeJs and FFmpeg at it's core.

I hope the promo video explains the product, and I would love to hear your thoughts, ideas and questions.

What do you mean by desktop apps? To include desktop apps in our mockup examples? Or to create a stand-alone application for Mac/Windows? If you show us examples of what you mean, it would certainly appear on our todo list.
Hi. There is just no way to manipulate images without JS, with pure html/css. Even if we wanted to. Although, I wouldn't be surprised if someone does it.
Thank you for your kind comment!
Thanks Tyler! Do get in touch if you have specific feature requests. It's always interesting to hear our people who are very critical.
