    I've started self-hosting email in ~2021. It took about 6 months (of mostly waiting) to clean up reputation of IP I've gotten (was in a few spam lists). After that - it was incredi…

    It told me my ~10 year old js project was 50% AI generated. Yeah, this is more or less the same as "AI text detector" stuff that won't work reliably (but people who don't understan…

    Those games are usually brilliant - but those are very rare. Like "once in a few years" kind of rare IMO. While that is a valid approach, I play way more than that haha! What I fou…

    Built vaporlens.app in my free time using LLMs (specifically gemini, first 2.0-flash, recently moved to 2.5-flash). It processes Steam game reviews and provides one page summary of…

    Hey HN, I’ve been building VaporLens for the past ~month or so after getting feedback from some online communities. It’s a tool that automatically summarizes Steam reviews into cle…

    Having a research background - for me, doing this in research was always easier. Because you generally have very straightforward ways to validate your hypotheses. Validating things…

    To finally figure out how to effectively design and test MVPs / prototypes without overdoing it. I think this has been a bane of my startup life for pretty much whole ~14 years I'v…

    I really like Edge's "site access: on click" for extensions. Hoping for FF to add it at some point

    We're using top level wikidata classes (you can see specific classes in JSON response). Full list is not published yet, but will be available in the near future.

    So, er, how exactly would I prove it? Do you want me to share our code / db / etc we've worked on for past ~two years? :) For one - how many wikidata classes exactly do you get fro…

    Same with Wikineural - it's a great project, but falls under "prior art". We have our own custom datasets / models / code for NER as well.

    That is something we'll be adding shortly. It's not there yet since we weren't quite ready to go public yet.

    Thanks for feedback! I'll indeed be adjusting examples to always return results as was suggested here.

    We have our own custom datasets, models and code we've used to train them. REBEL can be considered "prior art" though :)

    Comment #32996066

    Yep, that'd be the pitch! In the beginning we'll just provide API for people who know what they need / want. Later on the plan is to have "all-in-one" products for end users direct…

    I've lowered the rate-limiting to 1s, so it should be less of an issue now. But I like the idea of adding examples to exceptions, thanks!

    Hi, CTO of DataBorg here. Thanks for trying it out! And apologies for the mess - we weren't quite ready to go public just yet :) Current rate-limiting is IP based, so it might be y…
