I'm working on https://kaiboard.com which was at first throwaway project that somehow survived and now has couple of users who love it :)

Cross platform desktop app using tauri v2 which allows you to define shortcuts and bind them to prompts. You can then copy text, press the shortcut and paste result from gpt.

in similar vein gui tools for git killed the need of remembering commands. it is so painful watching somebody struggling with git when something "advanced" as rebase needs to done and they only know how to use git via vscode integration


I agree that there are moments where the AI "read your mind". Where everything aligns perfectly. I had couple of these and that was magical.


Yes, that supposed to be funny. The text was written by us humans.


100%. Learning is effort. Exercising is effort. Getting better at anything is effort. You simply can't skip the practice that's the reality. If you want to *learn* something from scratch AI will only help with answers but you still need to put the time in to understand it.


I was playing with resumable execution and I agree that language-level support would be immense improvement. That said, I was able create library that would take javascript code and execute it line-by-line where after each line the state is stored but user needs to use state object to store all intermediate results which are persisted. But there is still problems if the computation fails during on some line. We can retry it but if it broke the entire execution state then we have a problem.

I wonder how to achieve the transaction-like (commit/rollback) behavior that will works across boundaries. Doing it on language-level is the way. Compiler/interpreter can handle all the state serializations.


Yep, can confirm that emoji flags are evil. We had same problem. Windows users reported missing flags and few google searches away we found out that emoji flags are not supported.


There are maybe some but not as popular as Rails. I think everybody in node/js community advocated to build your own stack with libraries and write glue code yourself.


Hello HN,

during past few days I was exploring concept of single source file applications where you can hide the build system.

I've cobbled together snaptail which hides nextjs build system and allows to work with just a single file.

It works great for fast prototyping or building an internal/local apps.

There is also support for API routes that can be exported via api variable.

An example:

  // myapp.tsx
  export const App = () => <div>Hello world!</div>
  export const api = [
    {
      method: "GET", path: "/api/hello",
      handler: async (req, reply) => {
        return reply.send({ hello: "world" });
      }
    }
  ];
  // shell:
  npx snaptail myapp.tsx
