New top story on Hacker News: Ask HN: The ISP has a competing product so has decided to block my domain
Ask HN: The ISP has a competing product so has decided to block my domain
35 by qerim | 19 comments on Hacker News.
The ISP in my hometown (Albania + Kosovo) has decided to block my whole domain to my free legal streaming website because they also happen to offer IPTV services. I only found out after trying to access my site from Albania today, it just comes up with a “bad URL” request. The streams I serve on my site are public freely available TV channels, combined into a single page. Since EU laws do not apply to neither of these countries, is there any course of action I can take to prevent this sort of monopoly going on?

New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: Factual AI Q&A – Answers based on Huberman Lab transcripts
Show HN: Factual AI Q&A – Answers based on Huberman Lab transcripts
7 by rileyt | 2 comments on Hacker News.
This is a quick prototype I built for semantic search and factual question answering using embeddings and GPT-3. It tries to solve the LLM hallucination issue by guiding it only to answer questions from the given context instead of making things up. If you ask something not covered in an episode, it should say that it doesn't know rather than providing a plausible, but potentially incorrect response. It uses Whisper to transcribe, text-embedding-ada-002 to embed, Pinecone.io to search, and text-davinci-003 to generate the answer. More examples and explanations here: https://twitter.com/rileytomasek/status/1603854647575384067

Ask HN: How do you protect your children from internet addiction?

I'm using "internet addiction" here in a loose sense. Think of all modern hyper-engaging online services: TikTok, MMORPGs, social media, video games, porn, etc. I think HN users might be especially aware of how addicting these can be, so do you take any precautions to help your children avoid falling prey to them?

Hello friends! We've been working hard on building Mimosa, and would love for you to try it! No signups required. Facilitating brainstorming sessions can be a challenging and time-consuming task. It's difficult to keep everyone on agenda, engaged, and contributing. So we've built Mimosa to be the easiest way to facilitate a brainstorming session. Imagine if a "digital whiteboard" and a "trello board" had a baby, but built with all the best practices of professional facilitation. With Mimosa, you can minimize bias by allowing team members to contribute anonymously before revealing their ideas. This ensures that everyone has a fair chance to share their thoughts and ideas without fear of judgment. Once the brainstorming session is complete, you can easily view and export the final results. This allows you to keep track of a meeting's effectiveness and share it with stakeholders. But the real game-changer is our AI Brainstorming features and it's ability to turn your 1x team into a 10x team. It help generates and collaborates with you in your brainstorming session to help you come up with more and better ideas. We're both scared and excited to hear all your thoughts, HN! :) Please do let us know any features or improvements you think we should make to help you in your meetings.

New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: Publish from GitHub Actions using multi-factor authentication
Show HN: Publish from GitHub Actions using multi-factor authentication
11 by varunsharma07 | 1 comments on Hacker News.
The backstory about this GitHub Action: I discussed with an open-source maintainer why they publish npm packages from their local machine and do not use CI/CD pipelines. They said publishing should require human intervention and want to continue using multi-factor authentication to publish to the npm registry. This led to building the wait-for-secrets GitHub Action. It prints a URL in the build log and waits for secrets to be entered using a browser. Once entered, the workflow continues, and secrets can be used in future steps. The latest release of "eslint-plugin-react" to the npm registry used a one-time password (OTP) from a GitHub Actions workflow! https://ift.tt/wmoW3Sa...
