Ask HN: What are you working on (August 2024)?

I decided it was time to have a personal website as a software contractor and brand myself online as the state of IT is still uncertain.

I've got the API ready, which requires 2 main values: - The original file ( which can be sent as a file, or hosted internally and requested using an ID ) - The data that needs to be printed into the audio file.

The API will return a watermarked version of the audio file that you can use later to extract the same data you sent before.

It's currently being tested on a production website, will wait for feedback, improve, and create an actual service out of the API.

Not sure if I caught the train but still. My name is Max, a software developer based in Central Europe, and I'm working on my course "Building Command-Line Interface App from Scratch in Go" (this is a working title).

In this course I want to teach how to write CLI application from scratch in Go without any external dependencies (exception: driver for DB).

This is not another one course about how to write CLI app using Cobra or any other command-line builder library. Instead, in my course you're gonna write your own Cobra-like command-line builder library (package) to build command-line interface application from scratch.

Thus, you will know how to build an API for building CLI like Cobra and you can use it later on for your future projects. I will also talk about Command-Line Interface Guidelines showing how to make powerful, useful and easy-to-use command-line application which you can use every day in your workflow.

The course is still work in progress and I don't even have a web page for it. But I do have my newsletter where I share best resources about Go. By subscribing to this newsletter you will be notified once course is ready to launch. Also, everyone who's subscribed to my newsletter and will be in first batch to buy a course gets a 50% discount.

So, if you are interested in this kind of stuff join the waitlist for course in my newsletter on https://kovalevsky.io

P.S. I also have daily base newsletter about Go - Daily Golang. If you subscribe to this newsletter you will also be notified once course is ready to launch you and will get 50% discount to buy the course - https://kovalevsky.io/daily-golang.

I have a $7,000 Orbea E-bike and I have an Airtag hidden in it. Its a great feature.

Not sure if I could redo the Orbead Battery this way because its internal to the frame - but it does have an extended battery pack option - perhaps this could be wired to use that connector as your interface allows for any ebike it seems?

The post recently on HN about the flipper zero being able to emulate the airtag is pretty nifty, and you could use these guys effort:

I LOVE this project.

I want.

Actually, Can I ask that you add a LORA transceiver network in the build since you have the ESP32 (maybe update it to the ESP3250?) :-)

Imagine being able to lora talk back from your bike to the trailhead, or your campsite.

And do you have a better version of Shimano's E-Tube iOs crapware?

EDIT: Since you have THIS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQHZFRHiUdg

The Goauche BMS Tesrt Bench needs its own video/HN post - and this is exactly what would be great info to get via a LORA messaging for all the telemetries from the pack?

WOW:

I want to open a Goache Plant in California. Seriously.

I thought it would be absolutely terrifying to be in front of a bunch of strangers and try to make them laugh, but it turns out if you're prepared, it's not that hard. Open mic crowds are benevolent and don't expect you to be the next Richard Pryor or George Carlin anyway, and I don't "engage" the public at all; I just tell my jokes.

I try to come up with new material each time so there's some work to do, but it's fun.
