"Self-hosting apps is time consuming and error-prone. Keeping your system up-to-date and secure is a full-time job. Cloudron lets you focus on using the apps and not worry about system administration."
neat, don't think I've seen something like this before!

#23If you have time this long weekend, the team behind Autocode (Standard Library) [0] is looking for feedback. We launched a couple months ago here on HN and have been eating up community responses. :)
tl;dr is: we provide the entire development stack for API integration on rails. If you've ever wanted to ship some quick webhook or API integration logic but have found Zapier too limiting but spinning up an entire dev stack overkill, Autocode fits cleanly in between both. In-browser IDE, API autocomplete, a drag-and-drop UI that generates code for you, version control, revision history, cloud hosting for your APIs. Takes a minute or two to ship a webhook from scratch.
Disclaimer: Am founder. Am also happy to hear questions, thoughts, anything!

#24GPGPU. GPU performance is still increasing along Moore's Law, single-core performance has plateaued. The implication is that at some point, the differential will become so great that we'll be stupid to continue running anything other than simple housekeeping tasks on the CPU. There's a lot of capital investment that'd need to happen for that transition - we basically need to throw out much of what we've learned about algorithm design over the past 50 years and learn new parallel algorithms - but that's part of what makes it exciting.

They'd be so much more successful, if "Install" button did not have this:
wget https://cloudron.io/cloudron-setup
chmod +x ./cloudron-setup
./cloudron-setup --provider [digitalocean,ec2,generic,ovh,...]Re: Ask HN: What startup/technology is on your 'to watch' list?

Slick - I was wanting to try tinc + wireguard, might have to try this as well.
Thanks for the heads up!

It kind of just looks like a simplified version of CPanel which has been on every VPS for the last 20+ years.
