Show HN: Created YouTube Shorts Downloader with just 2 v0 prompts
Last week I was testing to see how quickly I can create simple apps with v0 and bolt. I created a full-stack app with 5 prompts. This week I pushed it even further with a very detailed description of what exactly I wanted to do including screenshots from the previous app and created a simple YouTube downloader with just 2 prompts.

With the first prompt, v0 was able to scaffold the basic NextJS app, install the necessary libraries for YouTube downloading (I didn't even know ytdl existed for node), and build a fully working backend api and frontend client.

In the second prompt, I uploaded a screenshot of my previous app to make it look like that and it got it right, right away.

Fully functioning app with just 2 prompts. AI is unreal.
Public transport is already largely cheaper than owning a car in many places, yet people drive. One good example to study is Germanys 50 EUR Ticket - now 58 EUR. It's a flat rate for all of Germanys public transport, including regional trains. You can get anywhere in Germany with this, and 58 EUR is not even remotely achievable as monthly cost for a car. Yet, while it has increased ridership, the majority of people drive.

The problem is that transportation system quality matters more for a lot of people. The problem ends up as people owning a car for the last mile - that is from the rapid transit to their porch. And once they own a car, the calculus changes - you already incure the cost for the car.

So what you need is a reliable way to get door to door - and that requires more than slapping down a few light rail tracks. It requires connections that cover the last bit as well - and they will often run unprofitable. In the end, building such a system requires the (political) will to regard public transport as a common good infrastructure like road that gets paid from taxes and is not considered an enterprise that (could potentially) make money. In the end, this could also be made free, but free alone will not make that happen.
Yes, the point I'm trying to make is that via 3rd party aggregator you can have massive price-fixing collusion without coordination, even with many actors (as long as those actors have converging interests)

With some OEMs there is (personally I know that current-ish Sony phones offer a corresponding option), but yeah, it is a bit annoying that that isn't universal… part of the reason I still carry a regular watch.
The industry standard was 40% accepted the last time I checked. Correct could be a bit lower, so maybe 1/3?

> "I was shown some prototypes and basically told that six people had seen it, and if it leaked they would know it was me that had talked"

This near-paranoid level of secrecy was because Apple leaked like a sieve in 1997 when Jobs returned as interim CEO.

There were sites like Mac OS Rumors that reported about internal meetings and projects in almost realtime. Nothing that was started before Jobs's return was secret. Leaking seemed to be part of standard office politics at Apple.

Jobs wanted to clamp down on that. Who knows if they actually had measures like described in the article (which suggests that every screenshot of Aqua carried a steganographic hardware id) but the threat worked.

The leaks were obviously bad for Apple, but as a teenager in my first tech industry job I found them fascinating reading. It was a rare insight into the inner workings of famous tech company in faraway California (even if it was the company that everybody in the media was convinced would be bankrupt in a year or two, but that just made the product drama more poignant).

What has changed with CoT and high compute is not yet clear. My point is that if it makes bare prompt injection harder for humans then we shouldn't call it a fundamental limitation anymore.

Are LLMs nothing more than auto-regressive stochastic parrots? Perhaps not anymore, depending on test time, native specialty tokens, etc.
super computer seems a bit exaggerated, seems more like workstation in a small box

Agreed. Without negative caveats, such positive statements are meaningless.

Customers want cheap goods.
Caveat: They don't want (to know that) those goods are produced by slave labour.

Customers want a vast selection.
Caveat: This should not include fake, shoddy or misleading listings

Customers want rapid delivery.
Caveat: And they want it cheaply, or ideally for free, without breaking their stuff, at times they are home or in a manner they can receive the goods while away from home.

Etc.
Making the perfect the enemy of the good?
Maybe. Used vs new cars have vastly different costs. Generally tolls are far more than fuel cost where they exist. Insurance is - in the us - charged per year with unlimited use.

there are some who the charge would be significant (long paid off reliable used car) while others who it is a drop compared to the othes costs (new luxury car)
> would say that pipes were not a problem.

You obviously would prefer non-lead pipes, but running the water for a period before using flushes out any lead if the pipes are in the house. Like you say in your comment, it's when water sits in a container like a wine vat where leeching has time to accumulate.
Show HN: Teams compete to improve themselves and the world (cipher-article)
Thanks for sharing this.

I find the hostility in the comments bizarre. Do people really think that AI consciousness is impossible? Or, that if it is possible, it will be obvious when it emerges?

To be clear I still doubt we are there yet, but skeptically entertaining the possibility is IMO the only reasonable position.
A billion dollar alcohol-free booze industry is a great way to advertise your trillion dollar alcohol business that had several advertisement restrictions placed worldwide in the latest decades.

It doesn't matter how many layers of Python you use to obfuscate what a LLM actually is, as long as the prompt and the data you're operating on are part of the same token stream, prompt injection will exist in one form or another.
> All we do in SF is make car driving worse, we almost never make public transit better. At least NYC has a plenty good enough train system.

Except that SF public transit is actually pretty good. East-West transit works extremely well via buses and MUNI depending on whether you live in the northern or southern part of the city. Bay Wheels is extremely affordable and makes a lot of sense for short trips in a city of SF’s size. BART has its limitations but it also generally pretty good. Sure, SF public transit could be better, but I’d actually argue the problem is that driving in SF isn’t hard enough - many people have great public transit options but refuse to use them because we haven’t forced them to reprogram their car-brains.
Going by your other examples, shouldn't it be Luddist and not Luddite?

It did fix it, I iterated passing in the type and linter errors until it passed all the requirements I had.

> If you merely know how to check, would you also know how to fix it after you find that it's wrong?

Probably? I'm capable of reading documentation, learning and asking others.

> If you don't know how to fix it yourself and the LLM doesn't either, you've just wasted a lot of time.

You may be surprised by how little time, but regardless it would have taken more time to hit that point without the tool.

Also sometimes things don't work out, that's OK. As long as overall it improves work, that's all we need.

I've been doing that for a while as well and mostly agree. Although one thing that I find useful is to build the local infrastructure to be able to collect useful prompts and the ability to work with files and urls. Web interface is limiting alone.

I like gptresearcher and all of the glue put in place to be able to extend prompts and agents etc. Not to mention the ability to fetch resources from the web and do research type summaries on it.

All in all it reminds me the work of security researchers, pentesters and analysts. Throughout the career they would build a set of tools and scripts to solve various problems. LLMs kind of force the devs to create/select tools for themselves to ease the burden of their specific line of work as well. You could work without LLMs but maybe it will be a bit more difficult to stand out in the future.

You are very likely correct.

Then again I'm on the fence on Freeland, as are most of my circle as anecdotal as that is. Our issues with Trudeau don't completely extend to her, and if she differentiates herself well enough along a few lines she might get more support than traditionally expected from a Trudeau cabinet member.

Or maybe that's wishful thinking. Our alternatives haven't done much in the way of proposing a viable alternative path and have focused almost explicitly on criticizing Trudeau and the parties actions. Its appealing to the "fuck trudeau" flag flyers but I do wonder if centrists will find the CPC appealing without a change in direction and messaging now Trudeau is leaving.
I have been using LLM to generate functional code from *pseudo-code* with excellent results. I am starting to experiment with UML diagrams, both with LLM and computer vision to actually generate code from UML diagrams; for example a simple activity diagram could be the prompt on LLM 's, and might look like:

Start -> Enter Credentials -> Validate -> [Valid] -> Welcome Message
-> [Invalid] -> Error Message

Corresponding Code (Python Example):

class LoginSystem:

def validate_credentials(self, username, password):
if username == "admin" and password == "password":
return True
return False

def login(self, username, password):
if self.validate_credentials(username, password):
return "Welcome!"
else:
return "Invalid credentials, please try again."

How are they good? They literally helped my competitors to out-compete me using free money from a money printer. I had to work hard for my money to buy stuff from the same markets; whose prices they drove up using free money.

If you factor out ignorance, it's as evil as it gets.

And yes, if you're living paycheck-to-paycheck, you are competing in the market against homeless people for limited goods. That's the modern reality. Most people are precariously close to being homeless.

If the rich started donating a lot of money to all the homeless people, I'd probably become homeless myself because rents for low-cost accommodation would go up because of all the free money flooding that market...

Then surprise, surprise, when it'd be my turn to get my free money, rich people wouldn't have any money left to spare for me because the problem would have become too large by then due to perverse incentives they would have created.

The whole system is in a controlled demolition; concentrating more and more and creating increasingly perverse incentives. Why bother creating value, when there is an easier way to get money by convincing rich people to 'select' you?

> Brands are doing what they can to lift the appeal of alcohol-free alternatives.

I made a free SEO tool curious to hear thoughts
Im a software dev thats currently digging into programmatic SEO. I created a free tool called websiteleaderboard.com. I built it over the past week or so, so it is still very rough around the edges!

My site ranks bunch of websites by their google page speed insights as kind of just a fun little leaderboard thing but the bigger picture goal is to provide a free suite of tools to help folks improve seo posture. Right now i pull in data from google search console, similar web, ahrefs, and built with and provide that to users for free.

Eventually, i plan to incorporate more stuff here around like a "my website" dashboard where we centralize data from other tools such as google analytics, stripe, etc.

Like i mentioned before, I am pretty new to the seo thing so if anyone has cool ideas, favorite tools they are currently using or things that are super annoying/difficult to do right now, I would love to hear it and build it in!

I mostly jest. In the late early 90s the prices of 68k Macs actually dropped into the very affordable range. The II series were great machines, priced well, stable, etc. The shift to PowerPC ruined the classic Mac, IMO.

In that era I had a 486/50 running (early) Linux and my mother had a Mac LC II. I actually really enjoyed using that machine.
Another booming segment is energy drinks. I wonder if these two have a common root, that is a yet-to-be-(re)discovered market for soft drinks marketed towards adults. In the region's early history that niche was occupied by kvass. It is still very popular in ex-Soviet countries, but not so much in the CEE area.

I'm happy for WSL2 users that are getting what they want, but I don't even particularly care about the things WSL2 brings to Windows, what keeps me from using Windows is just Microsoft.

I have been thinking about the parallels to OS/2, though, and I really do wonder if it's going to go that way. Much like debates about which economic systems are actually viable, there's no real reason to believe aping someone else's ABI can't work other than that it didn't in the 90s. But boy, the game sure has changed a lot, and I'm not so sure it will play out that way anymore. While Valve has been shipping the Windows ABI on Linux commercially, the way they've been doing so is definitely a bit different than how it was done in the past. So far it seems like they're actually succeeding, and the question is somewhat more of how much they can succeed with it.
Sorry this is a bit off topic (but relevant to your post).

I'm not American, but what do people like in Amazon, as in the retailer?

I have experience with the German Amazon, and often they're not the cheapest, they often don't have stock of the most popular items (as in the stuff you'd actually want, like iPhones or NVIDIA GPUs), and same day delivery, while nice, is something I can usually live without (and I'm willing to trade it in exchange for lower prices).

They seem to have an endless back catalog of cheap and cheerful mystery products of dubious quality, but I hardly consider that a decisive competitive edge.
That's what happens with every single internet discussion to be fair.
