This looks really promising and thanks for sharing! I've actually been looking into this exact type of functionality lately, for anyone else I'm just going to drop some other projects in this area (also if anyone, including OP, wa

If I'm putting myself in the shoes of the founders or executive team- just wondering how many parameters being dialed differently could have shaped the launch for the better (or worse). I'm imagining all the stakeholders arguments

Until this demo the most impressive conversational experiences I've seen were Pi and Livekit's Kitt demo ( https://livekit.io/kitt ). I do not think kitt was quite as fast in response time (as retell) but incredibly

Vercel edge functions are Cloudflare Workers under the hood. I'm pretty sure Supabase is using Deno Deploy/Subhosting. There's a lot of nuance to comparing these two offerings but in short what I'd say is if you like the

I immediately recognized this as either inspired from or actually from the same creators of the mercuryos concept https://www.mercuryos.com/ . Turns out it's the latter. I love the Mercury OS concept and think it's

The "self-healing" sounds very interesting. I've tried to think, myself, how to approach this in a chrome extension running dom selectors in automations. Curious if you have any high-level thoughts/findings in this area?

This library looks really cool, love the idea of unifying the api across various envs is great!

This looks really promising, will definitely look into using this for a project i'm working on! Btw I've used both datadog and newrelic in large-scale production apps and for the costs I still am not very impressed by the dx/

This is wild. A blog post breaking down the tech would be awesome. I wonder if you could train another ai on screenshots of great web ui design and have that agent automatically critique and guide it?

This is awesome! I've been looking for exactly this type of solution that gives a more intuitive (yet robust) ui and has node/typescript api (rivets node sdk is even better!). Quick question, how does it know to choose plugins? I

Do you have any plans to opensource this or share more technical implementation details? I've been ideating on this recently but haven't started any implementations yet, would be interesting to see how you approached this!

Pros: - markets validated - investors may see more options for acquisition exits - if in a crowded space you still see a gap it's likely real Cons: - table stakes to reach parity with existing solutions may be higher - existing entrant

This is awesome! I'm working on a project that will heavily utilize FaaS and I've explored many options. Your combination of "secure and configure via workerd" with "autoscale and orchestrate with fly.io" is re

This is cool! A few questions: - Given how neon architecture decouples compute with storage using the safekeepers & pageservers will this still just work with neon? (Wondering because you mention the index is in-memory so unless your st

Link seems to be down just fyi. For various projects in the past I’ve dabbled in generating selectors so I’m curious what you’ve come up with! My more recent interests have been to find a way to generate more robust selectors that could han

In the openai blog post they mention "Convert “Who are my top ten customers this month?” to an internal API call" but I'm assuming they mean gpt will respond with structured json (we define via schema in function prompt) that

Your project looks really interesting. I've been looking into many different "plugin" architecture options (mainly with the goal to run untrusted js/ts code) and your extended readme sounds interesting. But i can tell it

I'm wondering why vercel chose upstash vs cloudflare kv store? I've worked on very large deployments of cloudflare workers + kv store and the performance is amazing (and pricing). It would seem to me that upstash would add hops&#x

EDIT: never mind, I didn't read your whole post, looks like you guys are working on an opensource option. Great! Metal looks awesome. I've been comparing vector db solutions so your simple/abstracted sdk looks awesome. One th

You mention managing webhooks as another tedious part of integrating with third party api’s at scale but I’m not seeing in defer docs any considerations for this. I’m guessing while I could use defer to create a job that calls a 3rd party a

Glad to hear the proxy is in the plans! Yea you're probably right, most applications would best fit the proxy living close to the backend. One reason to run on the edge would be if the edge "worker" could retrieve the require

As soon as I saw this I planned on asking in the comments how it compares to Pizzly, great to see that this already awesome project is getting relaunched as a dedicated, OSS startup! Also, last time I checked out pizzly I do not remember se

Needl looks really cool, congrats on the launch! Wondering if you could speak on a few topics in the spirit of hacker news / yc community: 1. Wondering if you've run into any friction yet where employers block the end-user from in

Not sure what the original commenter was looking for but I can give my thoughts: - stackoverflow's UI actually serves well to provide a sort of "ambient" information that rapidly indicates not just the best answers, but the b

First thing I noticed was the awesome node ui and went to your package.json to see what library you used... nope, you made your own, lol. Awesome! I've been looking for a good react/js node-graph library with a lot of customizatio

I totally agree with this! This would really add so much value to fly.io. And if they don't want to allocate resources to this right now I wonder if they could work with DBaaS providers like Planet Scale or FaunaDB where they'd wi

I wonder if it'd be an overall boon for Rebel Fund to open up their data sets? Pros: - The HN/YC community would almost certainly contribute new models with new types of signal. - It's been proven many times that we mere mort
