Coingate: looking for mentor and finances
http://coingate.io
Hey. This is what we've managed to built in 2 months:
http://coingate.io/

It's integrated with Coinbase.com and european payment system OkPay. It basically allows two things: accept Bitcoin payments on web-site or over API or to buy/sell Bitcoins and keep it on our wallet. It is very similar to Coinbase, except for the audience, which is european primarily. There are two developers in a team, CEO and me, being a sponsor. We've been working on it for 2 months. Monthly budget is $6000. We need a serious partner here, who could mentor us, help financially and plan milestones and overall strategy. We set up an account with OkPay as an offshore company and end up with .io domain to avoid potential legal difficulties. Let me know what you think about it.

From books, Obama found his voice
http://www.iht.com/articles/2009/01/19/arts/19read.php?page=1
Obama has said that he wrote "very bad poetry" in college and his biographer David Mendell suggests that he once "harbored some thoughts of writing fiction as an avocation." For that matter, "Dreams From My Father" evinces an instinctive storytelling talent (which would later serve the author well on the campaign trail) and that odd combination of empathy and detachment gifted novelists possess. In that memoir, Obama seamlessly managed to convey points of view different from his own (a harbinger, perhaps, of his promises to bridge partisan divides and his ability to channel voters' hopes and dreams) while conjuring the many places he lived during his peripatetic childhood. He is at once the solitary outsider who learns to stop pressing his nose to the glass and the coolly omniscient observer providing us with a choral view of his past.
Ask HN: Effectiveness of MOOCs or other learning tools?
This goes out to all the teachers (and learners) who use the internet to gain or share knowledge. If you're a teacher (this could be a professor at a college or somebody who runs an online course on any topic) —

1. What tool do you use to publish your courses?
2. What medium are you comfortable with teaching in? Text, Audio, Video?
3. How do you interact with your students?
4. Have you considered charging for your course? If you already do, how much do you charge? What led to you choosing that figure?

For learners —

1. What medium are you most comfortable learning in? Text, Audio, Video?
2. Do you think that online courses are overly expensive?
3. Are teachers easy to approach?
4. What matters more to you: Learning, or certification?

If you have any elaborate thoughts on this that you'd like to share with me personally, please hit me up on Twitter: @Arsalan_Bashir, or email: mail[at]arsalanbashir.com

Video Streaming On Linux: Getting Started
http://pinehead.tv/linux/using-wowza-to-start-video-streaming-on-linux/
With the increases in bandwidth available to everyone, rich media services, and available information via the internet, video streaming is going to explode. You might think you see streaming everywhere now, but in realty video streaming is still in its infancy. There are many options for video streaming such as YouTube (yes, they have live streaming), Livestream, Ustream, and I’m sure there are a few others. However, some of those are expensive and others we just don’t want to use because of their branding. So what is the solution? Wowza! Seriously, the name is Wowza and we just happen to know a few experts that are going to help teach you to get started streaming with Wowza.

Manchester Geek Nights- Applying DevOps in 3-steps - "The technical side"
http://www.meetup.com/manchester-geek-nights/events/88541042/
DevOps is a common sense approach to software release cycles. It’s an accumulation of best practices and the agreement that software has no business value until it’s in the hands of its intended user. The best way to do that is ruthless automation to the point where deployments become as simple as pressing a button.

DevOps are people with a multidisciplinary skill set - people who are comfortable with infrastructure and configuration, but also happy to roll up their sleeves, write tests, debug, and ship features. They are basically described as bridge of communication between developers and operations.

Nathan will discuss the technical sides of DevOps, tools and solutions to the problems they are facing.

How to make immigration process less suck?
Hey guys,

Here is the deal - currently I hold B1/b2 visa
that expires in 1,5 months. I've started a company here on Feb 15 we made soft launch, acquired 9000 users in waitlist (in beta so far), increased revenue up to 65 hundred - not much but we just started. We also are applying for the next batch

It feels like things just got on a fast track, and now this process is killing me!

I've done a research, and option that works for me is O1 visa, that stands for individuals with extraordinary abilities. To prove that abilities n individual should meet 8 points in a checklist. Minimum - 3

1. receipt of nationally or internationally recognized prizes or awards for excellence in business
2. membership in associations in the field for which classification is sought
3. material published about you in professional or major trade publications or major media
4. participation on a panel, as a judge of the work of others in the same field
5. original scientific, scholarly or business-related contributions of major significance
6. authorship of scholarly articles in the field, in professional journals or other major media;
7. you have been employed in a critical or essential capacity for organizations and establishments that have a distinguished reputation;
8. you have commanded a high salary or other remuneration for services, evidenced by contracts or other reliable evidence

Also it considered as a best option for startups
In my case - I have 3 points, but my lawer concerns that application would be weak
So I miss #3 #5 (which is being considered as one of the most important point) and #6

Gents and Gals, I would appreciate any advice on that, or maybe if your have other options, or even lawer who specializes on that

Thanks
Show HN: Cleanlab Vizzy – automatically find label errors and bad data
https://playground.cleanlab.ai/
Cleanlab (https://github.com/cleanlab/cleanlab) is a family of algorithms for automatically finding issues in datasets. It might seem surprising that it’s possible to automatically identify label errors and out-of-distribution data; Cleanlab does this using the algorithms published in https://arxiv.org/abs/1911.00068.

Cleanlab’s algorithms, while clever, are actually relatively simple. To help myself (and others!) build intuition for how they work, I built Vizzy, an interactive demo that runs in the browser. Vizzy lets you experiment with an example dataset, tweak the labels, and run Cleanlab to automatically find issues like label errors and out-of-distribution data

Vizzy includes a JavaScript port of (a part of) cleanlab, along with other neat technical nuggets including ML model training in the browser (using features from a pretrained ResNet-18, performing truncated SVD, and using an SVM model for speed). If you’re interested in the details of how Vizzy works, check out this blog post: https://cleanlab.ai/blog/cleanlab-vizzy/

I’m happy to answer any questions related to Vizzy, cleanlab, or confident learning and data-centric AI in general!

Show HN: Conv911, a social-media platform to improve at texting
https://conv911.com/
This is a web app we built for fun, basically a social-media platform for people to get help with their online interactions, like answering your boss, a colleague, or just handling any random conversation.

I know some people were concerned with ethical issues with such website, which is why we made a clear guideline on the type of content which should be posted there. As an introvert it often occurred to me to spend a week before answering an email, or spend hours to answer a random discord conv, this is the kind of helpful use-cases we are aiming for.

I know HN is usually interested in more technical topics, but any raw feedback is appreciated :) The website is built with React/Tailwind on the frontend and Rust for the backend

Benefits of yoga for kids
http://www.yogaposesonline.com/yoga-for-kids/benefits-of-yoga-for-kids/
Yoga is believed to be a practice only
for adults. This is a very wrong notion that many of us
have built over the years. Just like yoga benefits the
mind, body and soul of an adult, it has the same impact
on children. In fact children reap more benefits from
yoga than adults. This is because their body will adapt
to the routines of yoga as they grow and the practice
of yoga continues with the years reaping extra
benefits.

SAP just bought one of the leading ecommerce platform vendors
http://www.hybris.com/en/
Yesterday, hybris announced that they were being bought out by SAP.

Hybris are one of the leading ecommerce platform vendors (along with IBM and Oracle) that are ranked in the top three according to recent Gartner reports.

If you shop online, it's likely that you've interacted with hybris.

I'm not sure what this will mean in the long term for hybris developers, but knowing SAP I imagine hybris will be removed as a cheap (cheaper than Oracle and IBM) option for mid size retailers.

I think it's nice to see stories like this as it shows that you can spend many years building a very profitable company that adds real value rather than trying to build something at the speed of light in an attempt to sell out as quickly as possible.
