Thanks for sharing. How fast is this type of CDN from different countries/locations?


There are so many CMSes to choose these days, you just need to choose one that fits your needs. For me, I will choose one that allows me to change theme, menu items and add contents to different sections on the page whenever I want.


So cool. I was able to spot Hipopotamus and Meeerkat right away as they are floating and blurry while others stay the same.


Should we use ElasticSearch or vector databases for a catalog search function in 2025?


Creating something like this is quite trivial with most LLMs but it's fun to tweak the prompt to get what you want. I'd suggest a loading indicator while waiting for the chatbot to response and also do not use via.placeholder.com for image placeholder as it is no longer in service.


I visited a similar NK restaurant in Saigon a few times before they closed down decade ago and the experience was the same. What impressed me is that all the NK waitresses can speak the local language (Vietnamese) fluently and can sing or play music instruments. The food is quite authentic, some ingredients are exported from NK. It was a good experience overall.


I don't deal with this kind of job too much but sometimes I have to migrate data from one system to another one. The cleaning is hard and specific to the data but most of the time I was able to deal with it using Regex find and replace and some command-line tools. For mapping, I would take 10 lines out of the CSV for test import, use AI or manually map the fields and then do batch import once the mapping is correct. AI can also help you clean, transform the data but the output may not be consistent.


I've played around with regex for some use cases like cleaning up names, but I don't know the syntax well enough to manipulate data well on the fly. How have you been leveraging ai for those use cases you mentioned?


It seems really hard to get feedback by using ShowHN, I tried a few times but didnt get any. Anyway, I build a cool platform that combines Shopify/Wordpress and Airtable features into one, it is at https://sitegui.com. I'd appreciate some feedbacks as we are new.


I think Show HN is more for complete products.

Also for the website, I think it's a little overdone with the animation and color. The screenshots are not enticing and doesn't explain how the product makes life easier. It feels like it's made in Claude+v0. Sorry, but it reduces confidence that it's been thought through.

Low code is a bit of a turn off these days in the AI generation - it's just faster to plug in AI and get it to modify plaintext rather than drag and drop or deal with forms.

The "Build your first application with App Builder!" is not clearly clickable. You can add an underline to make it look more like a link or make it look like a button.

Videos could be shortened quite a bit - I don't need to see the typing. You shouldn't be doing a demo; you should be selling the product. Sometimes that means skipping over things, but you can put full videos in a documentation page and such.

5-30-close. 5 seconds to catch attention, then 30 seconds, then they'll actually ask questions. That 5 seconds is in your design, name, hero image and so on. The 30 seconds is a skim, screenshots, etc. Then people might actually click the videos and read the text.


You made great points. Thanks a lot! I should focus on 1 or 2 selling points instead of just showing all the features. Will keep the 5-30-close in check for the next update.


Maybe HN could do something to incentivize giving feedback?

Something like more karma for participation in "Show HN" thread (and a karma cost for contributing to political posts)? Because it is true that right now it is easy to forget that every HN users have some unstated duty to contribute feedback to shown projects.

Just thinking out oud, but wouldn't it be useful if users also had some "field-of-interest/expertise" that ShowHN submitters could tag in their projects, that would somehow draw the attention of those potentially interrested in it? Because personnaly, one of the things that prevent me from browsing ShowHN more often is that most of the time I don't feel that I have anything of value to contribute ("Meh, your new javascript framework to automatize lense composition for svelte in amazon-lambda looks nice, but I noticed that typo in your homepage").


Unfortunately most Show HN threads are not shown on Show HN, they are shown in /shownew and /new for a short amount of time before other new threads arrive. To be shown in Show HN they must pass some unknown thresholds (upvotes???). I believe not many HNers visit /shownew and the chance to get upvotes on /new is quite slim due to the amount of new threads coming in. I know there must be some mechanism to prevent spamming but the current one also suppresses the exposure of Show HN threads and they are often buried in /shownew without much exposure/feedback.


I visit shownew a bunch but am always scared to upvote anything bec it might be a scam. There really is a decent amount of spamming there


A network distributed block storage system that is as nearly fast and reliable as local storage. FYI, a block storage device can be used as virtual drives for virtual machines.


Sounds promising. Are you going to build this on Wix?


Hey @ciaovietnam, We have launched Qweek: https://www.qweek.me/

It would be great to hear your Feedback. thanks much


It looks promising. Is it possible to one-click post to the target platforms instead of copy and paste?


Thank you.

We are developing in React for Frontend and Python (Flask) for the backend.

Used wix to just create the Landing Page.

thank you
