This is a great thing you have made. I have one criti-suggestion: I am somewhat colorblind and have a very hard time discerning the difference between the domain availability (available/not available/don't know). Perhaps make the color areas more distinct?

#162I described a business I own (docevent.io) and it came up with 1S3Connect2FTPLinker3ConnnectoFTP4FTPMerge5S3Connector6FTPToS37FTPSync8S3Mate9S3FTPBridge.com :)
So meta. It would definitely force people to bookmark your domain.
If you can't type it in or remember it, we don't want you as a customer.

#163Nice, picked up thee domains that are related to a project of mine. Thanks

I created a similar service (migtyname.com and separate personal toolkit) in the past for checking name combinations and checked the domain name availability using custom code that costs nothing.
If this saves you money then I'm happy.
so drumroll..... here you are (whois.py is my project name for the file)
import socket
tld = 'whois.verisign-grs.com'
def whois(domain):
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.connect((tld, 43))
str = domain+'\n'
s.send(str.encode())
buffer = ''
while True:
data = s.recv(1024).decode()
if data:
buffer += data
else:
break
return buffer
def available(domain):
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.connect((tld, 43))
str = domain+'\n'
s.send(str.encode())
buffer = ''
data = s.recv(1024).decode()
if "No match for" in data:
return True
return FalseRe: Show HN: Domain Name Search with AI

#166Thanks for sharing this! Neat tool, definitely bookmarking.
Just wanted to share as a heads up that I have a pretty strong case of deutan color blindness, and I cannot discern the difference between the “not available” color and the “we don’t know” color. They look the same to me.

#167Earlier quoted context omitted.
Pretty much all whois providers forbid this. For example, in a whois response for a .com domain, the output includes this: > TERMS OF USE: You are not authorized to access or query our Whois database through the use of electronic processes that are high-volume and automated except as reasonably necessary to register domain names or modify existing registrations... Since they aren't registering domain names or modifyi…
You are probably right. But someone could argue semantics. The project is for the express purpose of registering domain names. And the project only does queries as needed to verify domain ownership - falling under "reasonably necessary". IANAL so my opinion means very little, but it seems like the TOS are targeted towards people who want to abuse the system for doing things like mass data collection, spamming, and ot…

That's amazing. Hope they can continue to keep the pricing that low.

Ironically I met my GF online because I mentioned I was a Lisp developer and it turns our so was she. Not surprisingly it turned out we knew a lot of people in common, so it's surprising that we hadn't previously met. Sounds like you might have a good dating niche.
Sounds like a functional relationship

Hi OP, I liked your project!
Doing something similar and I'm wondering what engines you are using?
Because mine is already charged 0.18$ for 200 requests.
Here is my current setup: "max_tokens" => 150, "temperature" => 0.6, "top_p" => 1, "frequency_penalty" => 1, "presence_penalty" => 1,
model is text-davinci-003.
Can you let me know how you are only charged $10 for 40K requests?
