Show HN: We made a design review tool for faster iterations
My friend and I created Prototide, a design review AI extension for UX designers, web developers, or anyone building on the web. Our inspiration came from watching our designer friends spend countless hours seeking feedback during early iterations.

Elevator Pitch: Prototide is an AI co-pilot for design reviews, seamlessly integrated into your browser as an extension. It provides real-time, actionable insights to streamline your design iteration process and elevate your design quality.

What This Tool Does:
- Reviews your design screens or full web pages within your workflow.
- Provides targeted, specific feedback based on your defined goals and concerns.
- Enhances your decision-making speed and design precision with AI-driven insights.

Who It Targets: Prototide is for UX designers, web developers, and anyone who wants to boost their design efficiency without leaving their browser.

We'd love to hear your thoughts. Feel free to ask any questions or share your feedback! Our landing page also includes demo videos to showcase how Prototide works.

Thank you!
We ran a journal club at work, and it worked ok. The commitment boundary is significantly lower, and you can learn a lot from e.g. USENIX papers.
Thanks for the reminder, but anyone visiting this site on a restricted data plan may be in for a surprise. Websites that download a quarter gigabyte of data without warning is more than an annoyance.

How do you suggest I warn others to avoid this site? I don't think it's suitable for HN in its current state.
I've seen their clothes at Goodwill as well, tons of brand new stuff with tags still on them. silly thing is the price was nearly the same
It seems like using speech-to-text is a faster alternative. You can also consider outsourcing the work. I know abbyy.com offers a service for this. Even though you may not be their target market, they have services for implementing hybrid machine learning and data entry solutions.

If you're into dreaming up cool solutions, you could try using smart pens or tablets to write stuff and then teach a model to recognize your handwriting. But for now, it's just a dream.

One thing I have noticed with over zealous testers is to get 100% coverage they mock everything and test implementations. Then you end up writing 2x the code to get anything done. I think it's a net negative. I have more often had to rewrite tests in these environments then have them actually save me from shipping a bug.

How is healthcare different? Do you not have multiple doctors you can go to?

Weren’t not talking about insurance networks. We’re talking about how healthcare can’t be free market.

Insurance networks aren’t a requirement of a free market. There are private healthcare systems that don’t have networks.
This seems like the failure: abuse of shipping/visa exemptions.

At minimum, it would be fair to mandate that port countries provide visas for the sole purposes of mariners transiting back home, at the mariners' discretion.

You're not going to keep someone from staying on a boat if they think they're going to get paid... but you can at least resolve the international red tape that prohibits them from choosing to leave the boat.
and completely intertwined with lawmakers. even civilian work like the SLS is tainted by those relationships.

maybe andruil will get there one day too, but it'll be a win for everyone if the incumbents and elected officials end up a bit less cozy in the meantime.
The newest teslas don’t have wiper or indicator stalks. They don’t have functioning auto wipers or auto indicators either. Manually enabling wipers is buried in the center mount touchscreen. The indicators are tiny crappy buttons on the wheel that turns when you turn making them a pain on roundabouts.
I have two teenagers and it doesn't sound like it's a huge problem. And attempts to stifle phone usage (yondr pouches) are just creating friction. Maybe having a phone out is very obvious but kids have been doodling, daydreaming, talking and passing paper notes forever. If the downside of phones was so overwhelmingly obvious we wouldn't have such a dearth of measurable evidence.
Whether true or not, thank God that Elon took Twitter as one of the core pillars that the establishment had as part of their censorship-suppression-narrative control apparatus, e.g. the Twitter Files showing the US government engaging in illegal behaviour to censor Americans et al who weren't toeing the acceptable narrative talking points.

When it needs to do more precise numerical calculations, perhaps, like a human, it could just use a calculator?
This makes intuitive sense but I'd love research into quantifying to what extent the explanation is "better sleep makes loneliness more subjectively tolerable (because better sleep makes you more emotionally resilient to all hardships, which seems obvious to me from experience)" versus to what extent it's more indirect: "better sleep makes you more competent in general, including at accomplishing tasks that will lead to objectively being less alone (eg, you're less tired and more willing to try going out to an event)"
Until recently this was a pain in the ass, because you could only adjust wiper speed via the touchscreen. This was literally my #1 problem with Tesla's UI.

However, they recently rolled out a software update that lets you adjust the wiper speed easily with the left scrollwheel.
I found the images distracting, and in particular the tweet-sized chunks of text separated by picture or two made the text hard to follow.

So I think it's a legitimate criticism as this is a site for technical folks. Sure, not the topic of the post being commented on, but a good example to discuss.
This is my #1 complaint with our new Model Y. The "Auto" setting is completely worthless. It almost never turns on when it's raining. When it does turn on, it's either too fast or too slow. It'll turn on randomly when there's no rain.

But it's not just the sensor, which would be inconvenient. The lack of control makes it *dangerous*. You have to push the button in _slightly_ on the left stalk, which makes the wipers go once. And then you have to push the left scrollwheel left or right (but not up or down!) to turn the setting up or down, while staring at the bottom left part of the screen to figure out what setting you're on. All of this takes your eyes much further away from the road, while driving in more dangerous conditions with reduced visibility.

If any hardware manufacturers are listening, I'd gladly pay $200 for an aftermarket part that lets me control my goddamn wipers.
> Non of the gospels were written during his presumed lifetime.

More importantly, none of the gospels were created during his presumed lifetime.

(For the Christian tradition this seems like a minor difference, but we are exactly talking about oral vs written preservation and transmission here.)

Homer's works are an interesting parallel, because they are believed to have been transmitted orally first, before being written down later.
rga, aka ripgrep-all, is my go-to for this. I suppose grep is a form of AI -- or, at least, an advanced intelligence that's wiser than it looks. ;)

Obviously clear expectations help.

I ask for monthly payments in advance. This only works though because "you need me more than I need you" and I'm happy to walk away (I have other work to do.)

This is framed as "risk" (ie, I don't take any, so I don't need to cost it in.) For any kind of "after the fact" payments I assume the risk you won't make the last payment, so I price that in.(ie I jack the price so I've got what j want before the last payment.)

I won't start work until you've put some loot in my account. If I start working for free I can expect you to keep moving the goal posts. Since I've already "invested" time in this project I'll be happy to make some changes to get us over the line right?

Fundamentally it helps when setting up the partnership, contract, whatever to decide how much risk you want to take on. That comes with experience. But I recommend managing risk carefully. Ideally risk should be balanced. (Getting paid 90 days later, if they feel like it, isn't balanced.)

Sometimes I work with them to overcome procurement hurdles. One place could only pay 50% up front, 50% on completion. I doubled the (fixed) price. I got paid up front, their procurement system was happy. I can choose to give a generous settlement discount at the end, or not, depending on their behaviour during the contract etc.
I know about the post title rule but I would be surprised if anyone clicks on this not assuming it's about the video game digital distribution service and storefront.

That said, here's a lovely video from YouTuber "Aging Wheels" about a (working!) scale model of a British steam truck: https://youtu.be/PFKa8K9qZBQ
They are not this simple; if so, an RLS (Rain / Light Sensor) assembly would cost 50 cents. To do a proper job, you need an array of IR emitters, and an array of detectors; and they need to be properly integrated into your windshield glass.

The RLS is usually a part of the rearview mirror supporting structure.

It also has to also work for hail and snow/sleet. Again, it's not as simple as you suggest.
You could have a graduated dial to control the squirt gun. Off, then intermittent water squirts, then light, and finally heavy. You could put it on a stalk coming off the wheel area and have complete control of the wipers.

With your GPT-4 solution you could even have 'auto'!
IMO the NYT goes too far with its copyright/trademark claims. A few months ago several small-time amateur hobbyist Wordle-clone GitHub repositories were deleted due to NYT DMCA takedowns.
It's distracting and hard to read, I agree.
Vision and hearing are the main senses we use to driving, and touch a distant third. Using taste, smell or proprioception means something is probably wrong with your vehicle.

Hey thxstripe - we just launched Edge (www.tryedge.io) with a select few beta merchants to support businesses unfairly mislabeled high-risk. We'd love to learn more (contact@tryedge.io).
Not everyone records themselves using FSD like YouTubers do. So you’re not seeing drives where it screws up.

What’s good enough for FSD is being able to do it without a driver present like Waymo does. Their crowdsourced reliability data in https://www.teslafsdtracker.com/ suggests they need at least 3 orders of magnitude improvement to remove the driver.
There's multiple videos demonstrating Tesla's that self drive themselves into obstacles, including trains, because video cannot properly figure out obstacles.
I really enjoyed how he was struggling to balance the laser with a lightbulb. That seems like one of the worst household objects available for the task.
The Scully Effect
> After all, the point is not that a certain selection of appropriate texts be considered the end all and be all of existence, but rather that the Bible is supposed to be a history of what other people did while under Gods rule during their lives so that you can get an idea of how to live under Gods rule in your life.

There's lots of stuff in the Bible. Much of it falls under the category you describe, but not all.

> The Good News comes from people today choosing to be better, to do better, to not oppress, to not commit evil acts against others but to do good things to other people, to say kind words from a good heart because they believe in a better world coming tomorrow.

Different people have different interpretations. What you describe sounds nice, but I don't think it's exactly the orthodoxy for many Christians.
Lavon Affair – was a failed Israeli operation, conducted in Egypt in summer 1954
That's what divine inspiration is for.
The fact is that computers automate most tedious parts of business and personal workflows. But not everyone can "computer-speak". Here come the programmers and for a time, it was sane. Then people wanted more automation and tech companies started selling software. Productivity ramped up, but the foundation is mostly porcelain, fragile to any changes in business workflow. Whenever we got a more resilient piece of software, that because it went back to "computer-speak".

So the choice is either a horde of programmers maintaining the fragile machinery or getting everyone to know "computer-speak". We were getting to the the second option when everyone knew that you have to take a training course to use a computer properly, but now they're presented as "intuitive" (aka magic, so no need to learn anything) and we're back to the first option. Now they're emphasizing the "magic" aspect with AI, meaning bullshit can happen.

I'll be worried when people chose the bullshit instead of getting results.

> Rate Limiting... OOM... There is no REST equivalent to this attack of this severity.

Yes there is, simply throw JSON such as `[[[[[[...` at the server. You probably don't have to get into parsing though, nearly all C# (and Node, and Ruby, some Rust even) assumes that memory is, in-fact, infinitely large and just throw network input into a precisely-sized buffer. Just upload a few GB of nonsense to an API endpoint, bonus points if you omit Content-Length.

Yes, that's why it's useful to set rules and consequences based on outcomes instead of effort sometimes it eliminates the possibility of making excuses. If they want to avoid the consequences they can learn to take more seriously double checking to avoid the relevant mistake.

For example, we had this issue -- kid would "forget" the phone and then go out. We set the expectation that if they forgot they had to come straight home or else face a week or two long grounding. Lo and behold they quickly got very good at remembering.

Similar issue with "forgetting" to do all the homework and we followed a similar strategy with some success.

It's a useful technique to combat weaponized incompetence. It's nice and appropriate to reward effort instead of outcomes for new things that are still being learned, but once you know they get it, and if you suspect weappnized incompetence-- try tying an outcome they care about that you're OK with them losing on if need be, directly to the goal, and provide support and model appropriate behavior regarding reminders, todo lists, etc.

Not sure if maybe you misinterpreted my comment backward.
I think this is really important context:

> To smooth his exit, Altman proposed he move from president to chairman. He pre-emptively published a blog post on the firm’s website announcing the change. But the firm’s partnership had never agreed, and the announcement was later scrubbed from the post.

That's just f'ing weird in my opinion. Actually publishing a blog post saying you transitioned to chairman before the partners had agreed??? I've generally defended the "naughtiness" that YC famously valued, because I thought it was usually misconstrued by its detractors. But that doesn't at all come across as "naughtiness" to me, it comes across as borderline psycho.
Touch is probably only needed to feel when you bump into something you didn't see, hopefully at low speed... but taste, yuck!
Touch is really important: it's how you can tell if your vehicle is sliding. You can feel the various forces of the vehicle's motion through touch.
+1 for this. I use rga all the time. it's a "simple" solution but often enough for what I actually needed.
The crime was record keeping fraud, something Trump has infamously and quite publicly done his whole adult life.
This is true in a sense, but humans incorporate so much more information. Like if I drive past a sprinkler, I know there will be a short burst of water hitting the window. But this requires a fairly complex assessment of the surrounding environment.

Like the parent commenter, I use Kagi’s summarizer all the time: it has become an integral part of my online filtering process.
The article says "... the cost per 5nm or 3nm chip using SAQP will almost certainly be higher, making it less feasible (if at all) for commercial devices" and notes that similar attempts in the past had terrible yields. It is still interesting to see the attempts China is making to get past the US sanctions.

Wise move. More people will come if they think you have punch and pie.
"Early Access: The Vehicle" -- I swear for every positive Tesla thing I've ever heard, there's two or three absurd things. Shit we'd never let any other company get away with.
This reminds me of Steve Jobs and his absolute refusal to let flash run on the iPhone. I think we're better now for that, but we had a few rough years for that.
Don’t make the symbol public, or call it _set_deadline, or whatever is the idiom in Python. The point of this example is ofc not having set_deadline be used, but the other symbols.

Again, you don’t need to duplicate a function body just to have semantic names.
So with auto wipers, sometimes you need to manually turn on the wipers.

With manual wipers, you always need to manually turn on the wipers.

I don't get how the auto wipers are worse. It's not like having auto wipers means you no longer have manual wipers. Other than maybe a Tesla where they took away the stalks, but just about every car I've had with auto wipers still had regular stalks with pretty regular wiper controls. Just one speed is also auto, so you can leave it there instead of off.

And in the end I'll leave it on auto instead of off, and the majority of the time these days I don't even have to think about it. These days, they seem to mostly just work for most of the precipitation I experience. Not always, but most of the time.

The first car I had with auto wipers was kind of like your experience. It had to really be coming down to activate. That was a 2012 model year. My 2017 model year car is a good bit better in that kind of misty environment. My 2021 car, I pretty much never touch the wipers even if it's just a light mist. The tech has seemingly been a lot better over the years.
everything and nothing :)
In the wild, I primarily have seen graphql implemented instead of, or perhaps next to, REST. Not on top of REST.

I'm not sure what you mean about a poor man's SQL. Whether it's backed by micro-services via REST, or just a graphql API in a single app, the value prop for frontend<>backend communication is the same. It's not "using graphql wrong" to not have a micro service architecture.
I dunno, the REST endpoints I've worked on enforced a maximum message length.
Unless that smell is oil. Or gasoline. Or burning rubber. Or petrichor. Or just plain old smoke.

Or the touch is the feeling of road surface changing, or the steering wheel getting harder to turn / having no effect at all, or the rush of air if a door flies open...
In almost every car with auto wipers I've driven it's just been another wiper selection. Off, auto, intermittent, low, high.
I'm not saying security by obscurity is true security. It's one thin layer, though.

>> If you move the responsibility for security to the DB itself (other than authentication)

And what about all the possible access levels within your auth? Should every DB view have to check a user table to authenticate that the viewer has the priority level to select on it? If it doesn't, all I need to know is the name of a view I'm not supposed to see. What happens if you add a new security level... you change every single view definition? What if your auth + user levels are in a completely different DB in another time zone? Why put that burden on the DB if you get flooded with bad queries from hundreds of clients? That's why I say it's crazy, instead of writing an API endpoint that runs auth first and knows which views or tables are accessible from there and to which users, all in one place. Yes you have slightly more work conforming the client data definitions to whatever is returned from the API, but that seems like a very small price to pay to put all your security and filtering/validation in an easy-to-read middle layer. Of course you should use views and DB perms, but those are not sufficient if someone steals a login or session unless there's a middle layer checking their IP and hash and potential double-taps and lots of other markers that it might be a rogue query before it goes to the database.
Why would any almighty deity need humans to do anything at all?

This is a generalised critique against most commandments of many religions.

(If the deity didn't want me to commit act X, why is act X even physically possible?)

There are quite a few specific and also generalised responses to this critique. Look for eg "Why does God permit evil?", "Why does God allow suffering?" and similar.)
It's not. It's way easier and cheaper to send a bank transfer or wire. Bank transfers and wires also offer more privacy.

Unless you're actually going to directly use the cryptocurrency (which is generally impossible), it needs to be converted to/from fiat, which requires a bank transfer.
This was some years ago, so my memory may be foggy - and I'm not instrument rated!

As I recall, it was after I saw the two implementations. I got curious and looked at the original FAA data and specifications and saw how much the two kinds of airspace have in common.
The Safety Bicycle
Because they think they can build a cheaper car that way.

Same reason they haven’t even offered an instrument display in front of the driver as an option, and replaced the indicator stalks with buttons (which from reports works acceptably well in California, not so much in, say, the UK).

Underlying it all is Tesla’s belief that the driver is a legacy feature that is going away Real Soon Now. Frankly, it seems like they’re 90% of the way there (with all that implies about how long it will take to get the rest of the way).

That's not really a concern.

If you have a trillion parameter 8-bit fp network or a trillion parameter 1.5-bit ternary network, based on the scaling in Microsoft's paper the latter will actually perform better.

A lot of the current thinking is that the nodes themselves act as superpositions for a virtualized network in a multidimensional vector space, so precision is fairly arbitrary for the base nodes and it may be that constraining the individual node values actually allows for a less fuzzy virtualized network by the end of the training.

You could still have a very precise 'calculator' feature in the virtual space no matter the underlying parameter precision, and because each parameter is being informed by overlapping virtual features, may even have less unexpected errors and issues with lower precision nodes.
