• Show HN: SlideOps, slides from a repo that flag when they drift from the code

  I kept generating documentation with an agent, and weeks or months later it would quietly go stale. Updating it was the costly part: either let an agent re-scan the whole repo, or sit there trying to remember what changed. So I made the deck carry its own provenance. SlideOps turns a repo into a slide deck, and every claim in that deck records the file it came from, the exact line range, and a hash of those lines.... - Source: Hacker News / about 22 hours ago

  Maybe you could use something like this to make it real: > Building a Real-Time Concentration Tracker using MediaPipe and OpenCV > A simple AI project that measures focus and attention using your webcam — with Python, OpenCV, and MediaPipe. https://medium.com/@jiyasisdiya/building-a-real-time-concentration-tracker-using-mediapipe-and-opencv-2da7384ace24. - Source: Hacker News / 8 days ago

• Nebula Sans

  - Standard Broadcast "is owned by 44 total people, all of whom are creators" So it's fair to say there are creators with significant equity stakes in Nebula. It's NOT fair to assume that the 50% of revenue left after share is distributed evenly among all creators on the platform via an equity mechanism. Of course then there's Floatplane, which is entirely owned by LMG. At least a couple years ago they targeted "a... - Source: Hacker News / 6 days ago

• Ask HN: What's your tips and tricks for the job seeker entering 2025?

  I, like many people, are entering the job market again and preparing to do a job search. What are the courses, tools, blog posts, and etc. That were useful to you as you were looking for a job? What tools did you use for your CV/Resume? Are cover letters still a thing? I personally anticipate finding a job through my network but that won't be the case for many people. What advice do you have for people applying on... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Ask HN: Does LeetCode/HackerRank make you a better developer?

  I think they make for poor evaluations, though understanding the underlying performance characteristics and limitations of common data structures and algorithms can certainly be important. That said, you'll probably need to get at least somewhat comfortable with these sorts of problems if you want to interview successfully. FWIW, the last time I was on the job hunt, I found it quicker and more helpful to use a... - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago

• Ask HN: How do you make time for side projects and Leetcode grinding

  This. Do not try and do the problems from scratch. All you will end up doing is frustrating yourself for hours and taking far longer to get through the material than you need to. You wouldn't do this in any other field e.g you wouldn't jump into a Linear Algebra textbook with no prior experience and expect to be able to solve all of the problems without first reading the chapters. Don't expect to be able to do... - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago
