akshaynathr··on Ask HN: Why isn't Linux as popular as Windows on corporate machines?
This is something I hadn't learned about before.
akshaynathr··on Ask HN: Why isn't Linux as popular as Windows on corporate machines?
I believe companies worldwide spend thousands of dollars on Windows licenses for their employees. Why isn't Linux preferred, despite its superior security and low cost? Recent versions of Linux are just as good as Windows.

akshaynathr··on Show HN: Turn voice messages to beautiful journals
Hi,

I am the builder. In our platform, voice data is not stored on our servers by default. It is used solely for transcription to text and is deleted immediately afterward. Users have the option to enable a feature that allows the storage of voice recordings along with the journal text, but this feature is disabled by default.

We utilize Microsoft's transcription APIs, ensuring that data is not used to train any models.

Additionally, we are developing an "Ask About Your Journal" feature that employs Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) techniques. This feature is also disabled by default and can be enabled by users if desired.

akshaynathr··on Ask HN: Do you know any ML object detection/classification as a service?
Google AutoML
akshaynathr··on Ask HN: Any app that can show images stored in S3 without downloading
My team works with lot of images for our ml model. Images are stored in s3. To do manual analysis we need to download the whole folder since s3 do not show the thumbnails or the image.

Is there any app that can do this ?

akshaynathr··on Launch HN: SigmaOS (YC S21) – A MacOS web browser designed for faster work
A free version with limited features would be great
akshaynathr··on Ask HN: What are you working on this weekend?
I am building a social network similar to linkedIn for artists as a hobby project. I don't have a demo yet. I hope to complete an MVP in couple of weeks.

akshaynathr··on Show HN:Jobboard to find companies hiring during covid19-Looking for suggestions
Hey all, I built a jobboard to find out companies actively hiring during covid19. It is built using python django, mysql and bootstrap. Python based crawlers collect data from different sites. I am planning to rewrite in UI in react if this is useful and site gets traction.
akshaynathr··on Ask HN: How critical is the job-loss in Tech due to Covid-19
Thanks
akshaynathr··on Show HN: Built a job board for people who lost jobs due to COVID19 crisis
Hi All, Couple of my friends lost their internships because of covid19 crisis. I saw many others in my friend circle losing their jobs. I built this free job board site so that people with jobs can help others know if their teams are hiring now.

I built this using python and django.I am still learning the framework.

PS: If your team is hiring please let others know.

akshaynathr··on Show HN: Concept of a marketplace for machine learning datasets
Many datasets available online does not clearly tell the quality of data. So I think, having a particular standard of quality can really help.

I used that image to demonstrate the buyers and sellers being connected together. I will correct it asap.
akshaynathr··on Show HN: Concept of a marketplace for machine learning datasets
Thanks for the valuable feedback.
akshaynathr··on Show HN: Concept of a marketplace for machine learning datasets
Yeah. I was thinking of a crowdsourced marketplace platform which follows a particular standard so all dataset supports major ML platforms, API support for programming languages for preprocessing huge datasets etc.People can prepare and sell /buy datasets. This can bring people from various streams together to solve really major issues using the data.
akshaynathr··on Show HN: Concept of a marketplace for machine learning datasets
Link is now working again. It went down due to HN load.
akshaynathr··on Show HN: Concept of a marketplace for machine learning datasets
Hi everyone, While working on some of my projects involving Machine learning algorithms and deep neural networks i have found that there is a lack of training data sets in many areas. Also many of them are scattered throughout web, some are extremely huge for an individual to process etc.So i thought of this idea of having a marketplace for data ,structured for machine learning communities. It can be a one stop place for researchers, scientists, students,data analysts etc.Looking for some valuable opinions.
