Show HN: Chessdream – Generate realistic chess positions with AI

Hacker News - Thu, 05/16/2024 - 8:56am

For no specific reason, I trained a neural network to generate random chess positions that look similar to positions from actual games (from lichess db). I also made it so you can condition it on some fixed pieces, and adjust the number of pieces.

It turned out to be quite effective and I find it surprisingly fun and instructive to generate e.g. endgame positions with a certain pawn structure (set low temperature, place some pawns and position the kings, adjust number of pieces to get an endgame), and then figure out how to win vs. the computer in those positions.

I hooked it up so that you can easily play vs. a computer, either via lichess analysis → continue from here, or via my own project Noctie.

I’m thinking about whether I could develop it further to create position variants on a certain theme that the AI thinks I need to practice, or maybe make a PvP feature where you play a random position vs. a human. Ideas or feedback?

Show HN: Visualizing Prometheus node_exporter metrics from smartphone

Hacker News - Thu, 05/16/2024 - 8:55am

Hello all,

As an individual developer, I manage a few servers on AWS and Scaleway for self-hosted open source services.

Therefore, I didn't need the whole artillery to monitor them (Prometheus, Grafana, etc.), which usually costs some money.

That's why I've added the direct integration between my app and Prometheus node_exporter. The funny thing is that thanks to it I've realized that the disk of one of my servers was starting to reach full capacity (AWS doesn't make it really easy to see by the way !)

I'd love to have your thoughts on that, and maybe sharing what other metrics than CPU, RAM, Disk, Uptime, you usually monitor.

I made a small video to show it in action : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Ft20gqrfs8

PS : I'll be honest, the SSH feature is Pro only. But you can reach out to me via the app, with your platform (Android or iOS) and I'll add you to a testing group allowing you to upgrade to Pro for free.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Ask HN: Are you willing to teach free classes

Hacker News - Thu, 05/16/2024 - 8:54am

hey guys

I'm curious what % of professionals would love the idea of traveling to another country to teach their skills for free (similarly to how YouTubers teach for 'free')

there are a lot of people left behind in this AI era. I'd like to create a win-win-win platform for this and somebody suggested I first make a survey to see if enough teachers/tutors/professionals share my drive to fix education, so here it is: https://rockstart.ai/pre-mvp-survey-tutors

I'm not sure where I can find people to help me with the survey, as this is not necessarily targeted towards teachers/coaches, but anyone that actually works in a particular field and is interested in teaching others for free (for various reasons, being social good, indirect travel benefits as in couchsurfing, more recognition, more indirect consulting gigs, private paid 1:1s with the students, -- there are many ways to attack this, thus why I put up the survey)

Show HN: Boost your SEO with healthy backlinks

Hacker News - Thu, 05/16/2024 - 8:51am

Hey HN

A lot of us launch new products and build things to sell, but are not good at marketing or getting traction, even don't know where to marketing or list our product So I hand picked 200+ sites, directories, blogs, communities, markeplaces, sub reddits, facebook groups etc where you can list your website to get that much needed traction and also get some healthy backlinks from sites of upto 80 DA

I am always updating it as I find out new sites.

Sharing it as it can be useful to many of us
