shahahmed··on Show HN: Ask Harry Potter any question with GPT-4
i do throw a paywall on most of my projects. i'll both probably remove the paywall and this project entirely. but i was curious to see how people behaved with this bot and my question is answered! still no one has compared it to character AI which is what i was most interested in
shahahmed··on Show HN: Ask Harry Potter any question with GPT-4
that's really interesting. thanks for trying it. yeah, it doesn't seem to have a consistent notion of time and hallucinates regularly.
shahahmed··on Show HN: Ask Harry Potter any question with GPT-4
Would be happy to take it down if asked! this is an experiment for me, and don't expect it to be a product
shahahmed··on Show HN: Ask Harry Potter any question with GPT-4
good insight! I use a lookback window of one response, because it gets pretty expensive to do more.
shahahmed··on Show HN: Ask Harry Potter any question with GPT-4
Yeah, the OpenAI API regularly takes >10secs and I use a serverless backend. it's unfortunate!
shahahmed··on Show HN: Ask Harry Potter any question with GPT-4
I don't think anyone will bite, but putting it out there to see if people are interested. More of an experiment website for me!
shahahmed··on Show HN: Ask Harry Potter any question with GPT-4
I think that's a very tempered response. debatable if Harry would have said that though.
shahahmed··on Show HN: Ask Harry Potter any question with GPT-4
I expect as much! this simply uses OpenAI with a system prompt
shahahmed··on Show HN: Ask Harry Potter any question with GPT-4
yeah, the api times out pretty regularly which is unfortunate. i use vercel which has a 10second limit
shahahmed··on Let ChatGPT run free on random webpages and do what it likes
him and paulg are good friends!

noticed that the page doesn't scroll outside of the center container, which feels a little buggy.

Campah: https://www.campah.com/

A linktree clone, but I was annoyed it was so tiny on desktop, so I made one. No customers, but had a ton of scammers use it for free sites. So I locked it down to paid.

do you use twitter or share your progress/journey anywhere we can follow? would love to see how these grow and learn along the way
shahahmed··on Could you be a web designer?
just did it and got 6 out of 12. I think some of the border/radius/corner ones are weird because even as a designer you think about them as buttons, seeing a blocky div makes it confusing

oh wow thank you!

this is cool! i've always struggled supporting custom domains. what dns wizardry does one need to do to support custom domains?
shahahmed··on Katamari Hack (2011)
Others have mentioned this is blocked on https for a Mixed Content violation. Would anyone want a https hosted one? I can spin in up if there's interest.

the giant conveyer belt feels like the punch cards of old computers, wonderful video and great editing!
shahahmed··on Are You Ready for the Internet? (1994) [video]
i liked her light dig at the british govt for not having a modem or a policy on the internet. funny how different it is now with all the european regulation of the internet.
shahahmed··on “Download More RAM” joke, but for crypto era
i think the connect wallet flow makes it feel more like a high effort joke. it reads your balance and adds the value in the UX. it uses MetaMask and is pretty clearly read-only, the site doesn't ask to sign any transactions.
shahahmed··on Show HN: Edit videos faster by automatically removing silences
just tried this based on your comment. it does seem to re-process on every slider change, which I don't love. but definitely gets the job done! i prefer (biased obviously) live updates and also Kapwing lets you do general timeline edits you'd expect as well (text, overlays, add multiple tracks, etc.)
shahahmed··on Show HN: Edit videos faster by automatically removing silences
nice! which plugin is it?
shahahmed··on Show HN: Edit videos faster by automatically removing silences
i really like the idea of automating the first one - sort of solves for not needing room noise as a bridging mechanism. i think we'll try this!

dont know how we'll deal with the second one ...

shahahmed··on Show HN: Edit videos faster by automatically removing silences
in Audacity you can use Truncate Silence, which is pretty similar. Though obviously just for audio tracks, and I find it a missed opportunity that there isn't a live preview with a slider

shahahmed··on Show HN: Edit videos faster by automatically removing silences
this is super useful insight for us, thank you for sharing. yeah another product we're working on is "auto audio leveling", which I hope solves some of this, but we'll see.

and yes, I was very excited, thank you for checking it out, Van!

shahahmed··on Show HN: Edit videos faster by automatically removing silences
I think we'll display a transcript like this eventually, but I still believe the timeline should be the core driver of control
shahahmed··on Show HN: Edit videos faster by automatically removing silences
oh this is very cool - haven't seen this one. thank you for sharing!
shahahmed··on Show HN: Edit videos faster by automatically removing silences
thanks for checking it out, Dave! I'm a big fan and learned react from your tutorials :)
shahahmed··on Show HN: Edit videos faster by automatically removing silences
I like this idea - more sophisticated, and maybe a future version. Thank you!
shahahmed··on Show HN: Edit videos faster by automatically removing silences
for some that's viable - either have multiple cameras or record with reset and record with different angles, but that's a lot of overhead for certain situations. has it's place for certain projects i think
