Show HN: "Bolt.new" for Data Extraction from Documents
Hi HN.

I’ve been pretty inspired by the likes of http://bolt.new and http://lovable.dev for building applications.

So much so, that we’ve started building an interface on our startup’s data extraction capabilities into a rapid data app.

The idea is to build a fast, flexible and intuitive way to go from having a document, to a flexible data capture pipeline.

The demo page is at https://go.sea.dev/ with a video and demo app.

Three key features

1. Generate a schema from a document or description (the target of the data extraction)

2. Logic and “expert insights” get added to field level descriptions/prompts

3. Ability to share with externals to get data (calendly for data requests!)

The primary feature currently lacking is the ability to iterate on the schema using the chat, it is extraction/RAG/FAQ only.

Some other WIP features:

- Improvements on LLM powered OCR

- Email or WhatsApp data capture

- Embeddable data collection for SaaS

Would love to get your feedback and comments!

Next time, in order to not repeat the same mistake, they shall have _expected_ candidates. That's what democracy is all about. /s
I didn't claim I was important. I might as well be lucky. But, assuming that you're in a position of authority to call people's work a "waste", "neglectful", and calling me "holier than thou" at the same time? Even irony has its limits.

Let me get back to the topic and give you another example that you might relate more: "just a hobby, won't be big and professional like gnu". If Linus Torvalds had taken his own thoughts on the impact of his work seriously and decided to pursue other "more impactful" whatever he saw at the time as you suggested instead of this pleasure-driven endeavor, Linux would have never happened.
Ask HN: A Quick User Test
Hello HN,

I hope you're doing well!

I'm conducting a quick user test and would appreciate your input. Could you kindly share your thoughts on which of the following domain names would be the best fit for an International Trading Company?

GlobalTradeWorlds.com
GlobalEximX.com

Thank you for your time and collaboration!
Kyle Rittenhouse probably? Has technically faced the law afterwards but to what result.
I took my marketing classes for my business degree in the early 2000s. Digital marketing was not addressed. The advice at the time was to get to six "impressions," six encounters with your brand before most people would start to recognize the brand. And it was very much admitted that you don't get to measure this and you must correlate sales trends with marketing trends. Very much "gut feel" in comparison of digital tracking. I'm still not convinced the tracking makes that big of a difference but obviously the market disagrees with me.
> I would've thought that the incompleteness theorems would be taken as evidence against Platonism, but clearly this didn't happen

I don't think they really are evidence against it. The first incompleteness theorem says (to put it simply) there are truths about the natural numbers you can't prove, and (if we equate proof with knowledge) can't know. I don't know why a Platonist would find that objectionable. I mean, naïve materialism would imply there are lots of facts about the material world we are never going to be able to know (e.g. the particular arrangement of rocks on a lifeless planet in a distant galaxy right now, or as close to right now as relativity permits). If unknowable truths isn't evidence against materialism, why would it be evidence against Platonism?

Really, Gödel's theorems were a much bigger problem for formalism than Platonism. Formalists wanted to identify mathematical truth with provability, and Gödel shattered that dream. Platonists never dreamt the dream, so its destruction didn't discourage them.

Average people, no. People most definitely pay to watch olympians. In fact, they spend thousands of dollars to travel across the world to do so.

Whether this can be a career depends on the specific sport.
If rates go negative this isn't relevant.

You can get dynamic contracts based on the day ahead price in Germany. You pay a negative price for the electricity there. You still have to pay a transmission fee and taxes, so the actual end price is almost never negative though.

Of course sometimes you also pay much more than normal contracts.

Also without merit order, you'd still pay close to the most expensive source on the spot market. It's a consequence of the open grid where demand and supply has to match and price is not fixed.

I thought you were someone else, but now that I know you're not - I want to make something clear: I think that social desirability bias affected the answers of respondents much more [1].

To be clear, that's not the MARGIN of error in those statistics, but rather the difference between predicted and actual. In a five-tier scale, separated between groups, there is already statistical manipulation by having fewer respondents per-category, and therefore a higher margin of error between each. A margin of error even in low single-digit percentages can completely compromise the outcomes of data presented in this fashion.

Note that in the LinkedIn post he exclusively talks in first person: I developed the project etc.

In fact if you go on GitHub, their project presentation lists a 6 people team: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/117dGuEK98-TwAPGUBijf.... He was on the backend team, but still mentions angular in the LinkedIn post.

Did the others not do anything? Or why is he not giving them credit in the LinkedIn post?

This is completely and totally true.

Totally irrelevant in terms of what policy /should/ be and one of the reasons to move it away from one example because what fits one example may not be generally applicable. I have not and do not stick up for S.O.

Marx, yeah nah I don't think he's helpful here or indeed anywhere.
So the fun thing is that's already what happens! It's part of a law passed with the ACA called the Medical Loss Ratio rule.

I've come to discover that most people really do not understand healthcare insurance at all.

The true driver of increased costs is Dr's and Hospitals. Not insurance.
the delay is just too much you have to pre-empt an interrupt, you can’t slip a point in, you have to wait over 2 seconds for someone to respond.

It’s a small difference that isn’t noticeable at first but it makes it impossible to have a creative flowing discussion with remote workers also makes interacting with them at all inherently draining.
Sure, after the declaration of war by the state. The Church (depending on which definition you use) sponsored plenty of Crusades too. None of these actions are ‘rebel against the machine’.

Though that does sometimes happen, usually leading to/in the middle of a civil war.
If you haven't read it have a read of "how to win friends and influence people". Sounds like a book about tricking people to like you, but, really it's just a manual of tips you can use. I'd echo the other comments: if you want people to enjoy interacting with you, just ask them lots of questions and be genuinely interested in what _they_ have to say, _not_ what you can add to the conversation... that'll come with time.

Good luck :)
The young voter thing seems weird to me.

Consider these facts:

• A significant majority of Americans are medically satisfied with their health insurance provider.

This should not be surprising because a large majority of Americans have only ever used their health insurance for things routine checkups, routine lab tests, common infectious illnesses like colds and flus, minor burns and cuts and other physical injuries, routine diabetes care, routine high blood pressure care, and vaccinations.

Those are all things where almost all of the time any insurance company will cover without any hassle or pushback.

• Older people are generally more likely to have medical problems beyond the kind described above, medical problems where insurance companies do start pushing back on coverage and treatments.

• The older you get the more likely that becomes.

What I'd expect then is that sentiment in favor of killing insurance company officers over the medical decisions of that insurance company to be higher in older people and lower in younger people. But it appears that reality is opposite of that.
I covered a few potential use cases in my blog post [1], but I'll list them here for brevity:

1. LLMs / AI: you can run llama2:13b on the Pi 5 natively, though at a pokey 1.4 t/s or so. Training small models for use with camera projects is easier too.

2. Web apps / consolidating containers: You could run a few 'beefy' websites off one Pi, as they're often memory constrained more than CPU-bound nowadays (my Drupal site requires 256 MB per PHP thread). (Though an N100 mini PC could be a better option if you care less about the energy efficiency).

3. Experimental gamers (probably like 1/10,000th the size of the other markets) who want to run modern AAA games with eGPUs on arm64... I'm one of like 10 people I've heard of who have attempted this lol

4. Clustering enthusiasts: usually we have more dollars than sense, and having arm64 nodes that cost $120 new with 16 GB of RAM per node means we can have more raw container or MPI capacity than with 8 GB nodes...

If they do so with a political point eg "you should care as much about children in ...." Maybe that point has some considerable support too. Should that be suppressed too? Maybe it should. Uncomfortable.
Ever since seeing some videos about it a while back, I've thought it would be cool to get an rfid implant so I can wave my hand at access card things and such like, though I hate needles (my 3 month blood tests are hell) and it's always seemed a little freaky to me. I've also seen videos of people just putting chunks of magnet in their skin (I think I saw cody's lab do it, though I'm not sure) and that seemed extremely sketchy, so I'm glad there are safer-seeming alternatives these days (wrapped in glass etc)

Meta removes many hate speech protections
Meta rewrote the hashtag#HateSpeech section of the Community Guidelines for Facebook, Instagram and Threads. Explicit permissions now include insulting language in discussions on sensitive topics like transgender rights and immigration, while some restrictions, such as dehumanizing comparisons or calls for exclusion, have been removed.
The problem with "lowish" scale SaaS products is often not creating them, but selling them. I work for a SaaS that has added a lot of features during the years, but the product 2 years ago could probably easily be created by a single dev in a couple of months and could be sellable as a product to a subset of the market today.

The reason why I don't create a simplified version of the SaaS and sell to customers is that the sales process itself is actually the hard part. You may get some sales from ads or phone calls, but you often need to sell it in person if you want to have enough customers to cover all the expenses. And if you want enterprise customers, the sales process is complex and time consuming
Hi @doublepg23 ! I just received my device and I've been reading the whole day off yesterday. That device is incredible and I've been very impressed. I chose the 128gb/6GB and it runs flawlessly for the moment. I'm considering moving to LineageOS, mainly to get rid of gapps, but i'm afraid I won't be able to install my apps then (CDisplayEx, Get Pocket, Plex). Can you confirm me this ?

Is there any way to export apk from apps i legitimate bought?

Sorry i'm not used to the Android environnement.
> Perhaps rightly - We have rule of law, if a person is doing something unethical, change the law - if your electeds wont change the law, vote them out and pick people who will.

I don't mean this sensationally, but I do have to say it: you're promoting violence by saying this. Maybe indirectly, but it still leads to violence.

Money, in the US, is speech. That means that the richest people in the country have the most speech. They are heard the most by politicians because they put those politicians into power through their speech. This is done through mass communication in the media among other things. But it also happens through campaign donations, PACs, and whatever other interest groups.

When a group of people tries to "vote them out and pick people who will", inevitably a person with more speech than them uses it to override the will of that group. There is a massive asymmetry of power, one that is near impossible to overcome:

https://www.cambridge.org/core/services/aop-cambridge-core/c...

As people continue to see their material conditions decline despite voting, they begin to see violence as the only solution. So when you say "just vote away the problem", you are promoting violence, because voting continues to prove ineffective.

Oh, and just to pre-empt derailing: I vote. In every primary. In every election. Local, state, and national. In every run-off election.

No, allocators are not magic (in that regard) in C. There is nothing out of the ordinary going on with an allocator, the parent comment is simply mistaken (as pointed out by another answer).

How wrong do you believe this poll is? Can you use some methodology to come up with a modified margin of error that encompasses what you believe to be more realistic?
Things that have worked for me: modulate voice tone - lots of people tend to strive for a monotone voice for some reason, and it sounds rather boring and drone like; pyramid principle - start with the main thing and fill out details later, building up to something tends to make people drift off; brevity is the soul of wit - don't emphasize things by rephrasing ideas, don't hammer on points that have been made, don't pile on jokes, keep the conversation moving; pass the ball - don't try to hold the groups attention, be aware of opportunities to add to the conversation and let it keep flowing away from you often.

> someone says something I find relatable

That's a key point. You're seeing things you find interesting as opportunities to add to the conversation. Flip this around, try to look for things that others would find interesting.
Thanks for your illustration. I recognize myself in it and you made me realize that I am often making links between things unrelated to the conversation.
I strongly suspect 'outreach' personnel have quotas for booking meetings, regardless of outcome. VC backed infra projects will have full teams with no real customers, just a promise of future profitability. At least some of those seats are dedicated setting up meetings. When they are successful, it is often one VC backed startup trading funds with another VC backed project. End users who pay are less important than the hype. The merry-go-round continues.

An annoying waste of time when you are self-funded and their offers assume you have a huge budget. I'm fatigued. The "B" in B2B implies at least one party is doing business with users.

Worse yet are the self-styled "marketing experts" or managers of "influencers" who balk at commission structures, insisting on upfront payment.
No, that was your edit to my text. I said, "in the 70s and later". You removed the "and later". You are behaving badly.

> Ah, so by saying that denying insurance claims is not violence, because all insurance systems must deny some claims, I'm basically Hitler.

You're probably purposefully derailing the conversation, but for the sake of others let me bite: pointing out the resemblance of following orders of a killing system and excusing the individuals working in this system as "order followers", has nothing to do with calling anybody "literally Hitler".

> Do you think that Gesetzliche Krankenversicherung never denies claims? That it never denies care? Is it also violence when it does so?

IIUC, those are also private companies or at least to a degree. So probably similar to american healthcare, just more regulated.

Let's take a look at a 100% pure public healthcare instead, for example La Seguridad Social in Spain.

It denies some claims, care, and can cause some suffering and death. The institution is administered directly by some leadership individuals, and to some degree even by the elected government. Those individuals are not driven directly by the "financial obligation to make the maximum profit" out of healthcare. However they indirectly are, there are decisions to be made on spending, and budget is not magically infinite. These decisions are hard: you can't make everyone happy and healthy, whatever the result, some people suffer and die. See the trolley problem.

So if a public healthcare system works badly, and causes too much pain and suffering, then some of these individuals can also be held responsible. It's just that in practice, in general any public system works more towards the benefit of society than for some shareholders.

To be blunt: if the government individuals take decisions that degrade the public healthcare system, for their own benefit, whatever that is, then those individuals should maybe be shot in public too. This kind of violence, terrorism, works historically well, especially if it isn't targeted at random civilians. Democracy is not simply the rule of the majority.

It's not a matter of awareness, the public knows how perverse the incentives of private health insurance are, and how a public system can do much better. But the private system will never be replaced in the current american political landscape - without violence.
"Semi-Dynamic Language" - Zig?

"Value Database" - Mumps? lol
I think someone said it but there's a difference between facts and making an inference about those facts. The evidence in Trumps case was maybe he had a conversation with a person of Russian descent on Day X. That in itself is a fact. Does this fact or other facts like it mean he "colluded", whatever the definition of colluded means, is a matter of opinion. Even in a legal framework, where "collusion" has a definition, its still up to a jury which can get it wrong. Fact-checking is extremely complex as you are alluding to and cannot be simplified the way it has been thus far
> IMO, a better prevention measure would be to not build houses out of sticks. That's already the case for much of the housing in Europe.

The only thing that helps against is hurricanes and other storm events. Once the fire has blown up the windows and embers (or outright flames) enter the interior, it's game over generally. You might be able to re-use a concrete or brick structure after a large fire, but if the fire ran unchecked until it burned out everything, no chance - concrete will have lost rebar integrity and bricks will have soaked up toxic combustion products.
In the case of Mangione, some stats proved his support reached the real world. If I remember correctly, something like 43% of <30s approved of his crime.

Using the same idea there is https://datadraw.sourceforge.net/ and https://github.com/google/rune using it.

DataDraw is an ultra-fast persistent database for high performance programs written in C. It's so fast that many programs keep all their data in a DataDraw database, even while being manipulated in inner loops of compute intensive applications. Unlike slow SQL databases, DataDraw databases are compiled, and directly link into your C programs. DataDraw databases are resident in memory, making data manipulation even faster than if they were stored in native C data structures (really). Further, they can automatically support infinite undo/redo, greatly simplifying many applications.

> The perversion of what constitutes "insurance" in the US medical industry is the fault of our legal system and tax code

The ACA's public option was killed by a Senator who had a lot Health Insurance industry backing and support.
Whenever the media announces "extremely high chance of fire" in Australia, there is always at least one fire started. I think maybe we would be better off leaving it off the news.

Some fires are started by glass bottles causing the dry grass underneath to lit up, and then the wind takes care of the rest. But that's really, really rare.

It's most often someone doing something really stupid.

Tell people they can't come out of their house and they go stir crazy to go out... Tell people it's an absolute fire ban and the situation is extremely critical and it only takes 1 nut bag out of the entire population... The odds are high.
