Show HN: Spoonfy – Intuitive foreign-language listening practice using AI
https://github.com/athairus/SpoonfyDemo
Hey HN! Loooong time lurker, first time poster here. I made this project and I'd love to hear what you think about it. There's tons of info in the repo's README, but here's the short version:

Spoonfy, an FOSS project, is essentially the so-called Telenovela method (learning languages through subtitled video) on steroids. It presents translated subtitles in a clever way that turns them into something akin to X-Ray vision, helping you make sense of & learn from the foreign-language audio you hear.

This video (also linked in the README) demonstrates the effect (Note: It's Despacito so it's slightly NSFW): https://drive.google.com/file/d/12qYKv_yaqGr9GWvHPtE9ng2foJV...

I'm looking for help with the project (the demo isn't exactly user-friendly right now) but I'll also gladly accept any feedback. I feel this project has incredible potential: Due to its similarity to how we all learned our first language it could be the first step towards becoming a native --not native-like, but native-- speaker in a foreign language. What do you folks think?

Thanks for checking it out.

WebSockets, SSL and Sticky Sessions are “Three Amigos” among all the Cloud providers these days, it would be nice to have them together but they won’t play nice in Amazon Web Services, at least not with Elastic Load Balancing. You can get Client Identity(IP Address) and Sticky Sessions(also known as Session Affinity) but no WebSockets, or you can get WebSockets with no Session Affinity or Client Identity.

Show HN: Recase – A free proxy server to cache API calls for you
https://recase.herokuapp.com/landing/?next=/
Hi everyone! I'm Alan, creator of Recase, a zero-setup cache to help you avoid making redundant API calls.

If you're like me, you try your best to avoid paying for API calls. While solutions like Redis and Memcached exist, Recase keeps you from having to rewrite this code every time you have a new project that needs it. Recase is pretty simple at the moment, but in the future I'm planning on adding more specific cache configuration and tools.

Sign-up is optional and I've created some documentation on how to get started. I'd love to hear your feedback along with other problems you deal with when working with APIs!

Thank you!

I spent my spare time in 2020 and 2021 learning how to put together and operate a backyard observatory.

The linked pic is a composite made with the image composite editor from microsoft research. The input to the compositor looks like this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLd-U1lYgnY

I found that this process is a lot faster than creating sequences in sequence generator pro or sharpcap, though it does leave in visible sensor noise that would otherwise be removed by the stacking process.

I've yet to find a decent deconvolver, though i'm probably going to learn some openCV for that.

Show HN: TowerBI – Simple programmable business intelligence tool
https://tower.bi/welcome
Hello, my name is Marwan. I am glad to show you what my team were working on during the past year. TowerBI is a simple programmable business intelligence tool that gives you a platform to build data collectors on, monitors store, and a simple way to represent the data.
It all started out of our frustration with current BI tools. You will notice (after the store gets more monitors) how simple the monitors are, and how not using charts (yes, no charts) is better most of the time.

Right now, there is no way to connect to databases, only monitors that get their data using HTTP, and monitors that use data collectors (docker containers) can be developed.

We hope we start to develop more monitors with you and build the next generation of BI tools.

Happy to answer your questions if you have any.

Royal Hackathon - Come and help create a web app this weekend
Well the Royal wedding is taking over here in the UK (London) and we all have 4 days off work. If like me - you want to avoid the wedding and have nothing else planned then come and join me in creating a (long) weekend web app. I have the killer idea (heard that one before) all I need now are like minded people to help me pull it all together (over a few drinks).

Please get in touch if you feel you would like to be involved (all welcome). If you can only make part of the weekend then it's not a problem. Location TBC (London SE1 or somewhere near).

Still considering what stack to use (depends on what skills we have at our disposal). I was thinking of using - Rails, MongoDB (but like I said we'll see). Non techy's welcome.

The whole thing is meant to be a bit of fun with the chance to learn a few things and meet new people. If anything more comes out of it then it's a bonus.

Once the weekend is over I will let you all know how we went... and maybe you can let me know if the bride bothered to turn up!
