End of the builder: It's time to 3D print your home
http://www.humansinvent.com/#!/10725/behind-the-blueprint-for-the-3d-printed-home/
We talk to Janjaap Ruijssenaars of Universe Architecture about plans to build the 3D printed home. Is this the future for 3D printing?

"It could be possible to print houses for the poor, bring the printer to a location such as a village and see if you can print with the material that you find there."

Maybe not a new thing, but I finally found what I was looking for
What python framework can be used to build a REST api?
I know of Flask, Django and Pyramid. I don't want anything that has those in it, i all i want is a pure Rest Framework (not Web framework with REST extensions). Something that is used for just RESTful ApI.
Just Models and Controllers no views.
Thanks in advance.
Ask HN: Is there an IDE for computer vision?
How are people running their detection pipelines on video and overlaying the results? Is every project writing its own scaffolding for this? Is it mostly 'run command, generate new video'? Or is there a GUI / toolkit that's standard?

It's time to finally kill CAPTCHA
http://www.change.org/en-AU/petitions/it-s-time-to-finally-kill-captcha-2
CAPTCHA tests, used almost everywhere across the web, are frustrating for all internet users. However, for me, and millions of other blind or vision impaired people, CAPTCHA tests prevent us from engaging with the web and government services, because they can't be read by screen reading software - which is why it's time to kill CAPTCHA.

Ask HN: Anyone else suffering from potent dreams and or nightmares lately?
A few yeats ago after leaving the electronics field, I worked transporting the deceased for a while.
This resulted in a PTSD of sorts, presenting itself in the form of nightmares and the resulting lack of sleep.
Since starting my farm this has all but gone away, until now...
I'm pretty sure I know what is triggering this resurgence but as I am wide awake at 3:30 am I thought I would ask how everyone else is sleeping in this troubled time?

Show HN: Compare movie ratings (certifications) between countries
https://stuporglue.org/ratings/index.php
I recently moved to Germany, with kids (teens & pre-teens), where Netflix etc. show movie's ratings with the local rating/certification system. This led to questions from my kids about what they could watch.

I made this page to get a better understanding of how the German ratings map to US ratings. Since I was downloading data from anyways, I just made it able to compare between all the countries I got data for.

There's a Github link at the bottom of the page in case you want to pull your own data or load in data for other countries.

Ask HN: Any advice for a developer transitioning into a data scientist role?
I work at a small company, and there are some great opportunities to delve into deep data analysis. I'd like to transition into such a role, and I currently have a bachelors in CS with a concentration in scientific applications (which basically just means I took a lot of math). From what I understand, I technically have the foundations for the data scientist role, but I'm a bit rusty after a long foray into app development (been out of school for 6 years). Any advice or resources that current analysts may have for a data science rookie? I have maybe a year to really hone my initial skill set.

Ask HN: How to do a SaaS with client side encryption, yet a Web API?
I want to make an open source "Basket In" software (the concept from GTD) so I can quickly capture offline text, voice and pics on the go, then get them synced on all my devices to sort them out the next morning.

However, I don't want the server to know what I, or any user really, is capturing, so I will encrypt it on the client side.

The problem is, I also want to provide a Web API, so that people can write their own client for it.

The server, however, can only send encrypted data to new clients. How do I solve this problem? Do I just share the encryption key with each client, including 3rd party site? What if a user suddenly distrust a client? Do I need to encrypt again the whole content with a new key?

Show HN: Weather API with forecasts based on AI
https://www.meteosource.com
Meteosource is SaaS platform with a goal to achieve the highest possible weather forecast accuracy.

Most weather services around the world prepare their forecasts based on a single global NWP model and then apply a local model such as WRF to the data. Meteosource uses a number of data sources and proprietary numerical weather prediction models to extract the most valuable information from each. It learns from historical data and forecasts from many different models, compares their data from different places and meteorological situations, and creates a single output that should minimise inaccuracies and biases of individual models.

API documentation available at https://www.meteosource.com/documentation

I greatly appreciate any feedback and thoughts on how to improve this service and make it easier to use!
Show HN: Squareword - a Wordle-like game with an added dimension
https://squareword.org/
Last weekend, when I was playing Wordle I was inspired to think of ways to expand the concept and fuel my daily word game addiction. So I built squareword, where you use word guesses to uncover a square of letters consisting of five words down and five across. There is a new challenge every day, I thought you guys might enjoy it. My score for today was ten guesses.

I built it in Vue.js and the Quasar framework and host it on Cloudflare pages. Just like Wordle, it runs purely on the client side. Over the past week, I’ve been adding features such as user stats and the ability to share your results. It has been really fun to see friends and family start playing the game, even when they beat my own score…

Any feedback is appreciated!
Ask HN: Should I return to a IC dev role after my experience in management?
I'm at a bit of a crossroads in my career and I'd like some input from people who have experienced similar issues.

Backstory: I was a senior software engineer at our company and was offered a development manager role in another team. The team was known to be in an unhealthy state, and the project has a lot of eyes on it. I've been a manager now for about 3 years. It's been a stressful journey. I think I've grown a lot in this time, but my motivation is really low. 1:1's, setting goals, and mentoring direct reports was a fun new thing when I started, but I have very little drive to do this long term. I do find motivation in improving our system and our processes, which is why I originally wanted to get into a leadership role. I am rarely coding now as I'm generally stretched thin helping on many tasks at once, and of course in a few meetings.

One note, my current role hasn't given me much more influence the direction of our company or the products we make. In the rare times I'm involved in these discussions, I do get motivated.

Given the situation, I'm considering switching back to a development role. I have learned that in a healthy team I could have more far reaching influence on systems and processes without being in a manager role. I'm hesitant to do so because it feels like I'm giving up on my career aspirations I had in mind. Also, I'm not sure if I'm not happy with this specific role I'm in, or if the actual dev manager role isn't for me.

Do you think moving back to a development role will make me less marketable to become a manager later in my career?

I'm curious if others have had this conundrum I'm in and how they handled it.
Ask HN: Why does police limit reception at large event entrances
Why do large venues throttle reception at entrances to events? Surely if it’s for an attack vector people can just use long distance radios - 5g works inside the event, so it’s probably not a technical limitation. Im at coachella, and we cant even call an uber or lyft to get out at the end of the night. Im with somebody that works in management at a large nightclub in toronto, and she said they do this also in Toronto. What is the reasoning?

Please suggest.

Show HN: I built a Chrome extension to save job postings to Google Sheets
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/resumary-oneclick-save-jo/mkjedhephckpdnpadogmilejdbgbbdfm
Hey HN - I built a Chrome extension that adds a button to LinkedIn, Indeed, and Lever to autosave the job's title, company, and link in a Google Sheet so you can organize all your job applications in one location. I used to open a bunch of tabs to apply for jobs that I never ended up applying to bc I was either lazy or it got too messy to keep track of. AKA I never went back to that tab again

The extension has really helped me navigate my own job search and I wanted to share it with anyone looking for a simple and beneficial tool.

What's great about this extension:

- It's free forever - just trying to help people find a job

- No sign up needed - works with your Google account

- Saves job postings directly to Google Sheets

- You can customize and edit the spreadsheet however you want

- Integrates with LinkedIn, Indeed and Lever

- Adds a button on the website - no more switching between tabs or copy/paste

I hope this helps at least a few people with their job search :) If you do try it, I'd love to hear your thoughts on how it can be improved!

TLDR: Click the link to see some cool visualizations, refresh a few times for random examples, and try editing some of the code yourself.

This is a small weekend project of mine inspired by shadertoy.com

It's a static single-page site hosted on GitHub pages so the website design is pretty barebones. I'm not a web developer so I mainly wanted to create a Cool Thing with my free time and not have to learn tons of front-end to do it.

I'd love to hear what people think about it and please post or send me any shaders you make! You can use the link button in the bottom right to share.

I hope that this gets more people interested in shaders because GPU programming is a pretty different paradigm and learning it has made me a better software engineer even though my current job doesn't touch it. That said, textshader only runs normal Javascript on the CPU so think of it like a simplified sandbox and not the real thing. I'd highly recommend checking out shadertoy to level up to the real deal too!

Show HN: CancerDB: A public domain CSV file to help build a cure
https://github.com/breck7/CancerDB
Hi HN! I started working in Cancer Research at the University of Hawaii Cancer Center 4.5 years ago in March 2018.

If you thought programming and computers were complex, WAIT until you start trying to wrap your head around cancer. We're talking Orders of Magnitude more complexity.

I know it might seem outrageous that a lowly CSV file will help in the quest to build a cure, but I truly believe it might. I think what seems like miracles always comes down to grunt data collection, with a few moments of key insights.

Anyway, the site will launch November 1st. Please give it a star and a share (and/or even a pull request!) between now and then.

Thank you to everyone for your help. Thank you in particular to the fine folks at the University of Hawai'i Cancer Center!

I am there right now at my desk. Thanks especially to John Shepherd (https://shepherdresearchlab.org/about/our-team/john-shepherd...) who let me keep my desk here and books here and keycard access even though I stopped working here years ago!

Ask HN: How are good borrowers rewarded in your country?
Lenders make money from the good repaying behaviour of good borrowers. However, lenders are known to restructure loans with bad borrowers to recover pending amount.
