chdavidon Show HN: ChatPack – Open Chat Infrastructure

Hey HN, I couldn’t find an open-source chat layer that I liked so I built my own.

It’s fast, free and very customisable. You can run it on your own infrastructure, with your own database and auth.

Repo -> https://github.com/chddaniel/chatpack

Install -> npx chatpack@latest

I’d love feedback, bug reports, or any feature suggestions!

chdavidon Indie hackers don't like GPT-5. I wrote an 'alternatives' guide

hi all,

saw this tweet from Levelsio: https://x.com/levelsio/status/1953753893684261058

and other tweets from indie hackers complaining about GPT-5, so I thought I'd make this post. would love any (harsh) feedback, cheers!

chdavidon Show HN: I built sinkedin – a LinkedIn but for flauting failures and screwups

Think this is funny. How did you make the website? Asking out of of curiosity, it looks like one I made with Windsurf a while back

Thanks for the feedback. As for substance, what information would you say is missing?

Yep, the images are made with DALL-E 3 + some editing... Grammar isn't what DALL-E is best at. At least for the moment!

After that 55%, can you elaborate a bit? Is it too complicated, or just nothing of value for the user?

As in, not something that an AI rookie would ever use

chdavidon I made an in-depth beginner's guide to AI

Hey HN,

I'm a person who uses AI every day — one who wished to have a comprehensive beginner’s guide. Now I teach people how to leverage the power of AI. Wrote and scheduled 90 simple guides in 3 weeks.

I realized people miss the basics. Everyone speaks about ChatGPT, but nobody speaks about what AI is — in simple, familiar terms.

So I did this: 1. Got a self-explanatory domain / 2. Made a bullet-list guide defining AI & ML / 3. Wrote how to begin using AI and later scale up

I put this guide together the way I would've liked to have when I got started, so I hope you find it as useful as I do! Any feedback is welcome, especially negative

XNUMX looks like a placeholder for a number you'd find in a document where the actual number is supposed to be inserted later.

There might be a glitch or it's just a weird coincidence
