It might be trivial for some programmers to use puppeteer or some would want to hand-build some OG images (you can mix and match), but otherwise, this tool is very handy, and set-and-forget.
I just created a Show HN for it https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46585378

Have you considered other pricing models? Maybe buying credits, or them rolling over?
My meta side project for building other side projects: https://bodge.app/ I've always had a bunch of small side projects that I want to do that aren't worth the overhead required to actually put them together & keep them maintained. So, I built a small Lua-based FaaS platform to make each individual project less work whenever inspiration strikes. So far I've built: * A current-time API for some hacked-together IoT de…
Very very cool! Just signed up. Reminds me of Val Town which I'm a big fan of. Did you choose Lua because you love using it, or for some other pragmatic reasons? Do you think a service like yours with support for many variety of languages a good idea? Not in order to meet user demand but purely because I think it would "just" require running the program on the server using a different interpreter/compiler, assuming c…
I’m working on a real-time tracker for the Canadian Parliament. While the official data is technically public, it's practically inaccessible (buried in XML feeds and legacy sites). Phase 1 was building a modern ingestion engine and freeing the information to make it more accessible. The goal is to make legislative data as accessible as sports stats. I'm almost ready to launch the MVP; I'm just doing some bugfixes and…
I have
1. A scraper/parser that ingests the data daily and transforms it into .parquet files.
2. A LLM summarizer to summarize larger discussions.
3. A static site that gets automatically generated (based on the .parquet files) to provide insight.
What makes your tracker ‘real-time’? Does it ingest the livestream of a parliamentary session while it is happening?
I'm working on moving beyond the LeetCode interview for software developers. Most software engineering interviews are a “signal crisis”. They measure recall, not real-world engineering. I'm working on moving the evaluation from “writing code under pressure” to technical judgment via structured code review. https://entrevue.app
Lots of work to automatically filter and process scraped footage into something that will train well.
After years of wondering what the post-UNIX paradigm of computing could look like, these past few months I've been prototyping a software platform built around capabilities and message passing, targeting Linux and bare-metal RISC-V. The big ideas I'm pursuing is a stackless design running on a flat address space with lightweight processes to minimize message-passing latency, and all the benefits of capabilities so ev…
Did you apply for funding? Any subsidies?
