Show HN: GPT Classifies HN Titles With all the "what can GPT do", I went to dabble with it to see if I could do something that plays to its strengths rather than just speculating about "would it be good at that?" https://ift.tt/FikmZgD The basis for the prompt is: Classify following titles into one or more of {US Politics}, {World Politics}, {Technology}, {Security}, {Current Events}, {Boasting}, {Curiosity}, {Unknown} The results from the front page as I type this: 34152137 Technology: Lite XL: A lightweight text editor written in C and Lua 34151880 Curiosity: Hydrochloric acid is more complicated than you think 34156235 World Politics, Current Events: Apple Japan hit with $98M in back taxes for missing duty-free abuses 34152333 Technology: The Architecture of the Lisa Personal Computer (1984) [pdf] 34151951 Curiosity: The Zen anti-interpretation of quantum mechanics (2021) 34155009 Unknown: Added 49 volumes of Arkansas, Mississippi, and Tennessee law 34145665 Technology: FEA Solver that doesn't need defeaturing 34151107 World Politics, Current Events: Amazon packages burn in India, final stop in broken recycling system 34155783 Technology: Your Cellphone Will Be a Satphone 34154778 World Politics, Current Events: Vandals destroy 30k-year-old indigenous cave drawings in Australia 34146397 Boasting: Ask HN: Elevator Pitch for a Polymath? 34151708 Technology: All About USB-C: Illegal Adapters 34149340 World Politics, Current Events: Southwest cancels 5,400 flights in less than 48 hours 34154896 Technology: Beaker Browser is now archived 34145811 Technology: Run Third-Party Scripts from a Web Worker 34152978 World Politics, Current Events: When Algorithms Rule, Values Can Wither 34152981 Security: Experian Vulnerability Shows Any Report with just SSN, DOB, ADR 34151382 World Politics, Security, Current Events: US Government demands direct police access to European biometric data [pdf] 34143272 Curiosity: Archaeologists devise a better clock for Biblical times 34149804 Technology: Using eBPF and predefined inspections to minimize “observability tax” 34155875 US Politics: Ventura Issues 34152100 Technology: Anki SRS Algorithm : Spaced repetition explained with code 34154406 Technology: How RISC-V Timer Interrupts Work 34146493 Curiosity: Old-school computing: when your lab PC is ancient (2021) 34152369 Technology: BorgBackup: Deduplicating archiver with compression and encryption 34147825 Technology: Show HN: Self-hosted CMS on serverless Cloudflare 34153648 Boasting: Brooklyn Bar Menu Generator (2015) 34117429 Unknown: “Blue Light” creating capacity for nothing (2007) 34149239 Curiosity: Visually symmetric words There are certainly some that one could argue would be different though I think its fairly correct based on titles alone. I'll also note that there are some different results when I was working in a smaller sample size - the entry "Added 49 volumes of Arkansas, Mississippi, and Tennessee law" was classified as "US politics, Current Events" rather than "Unknown". I do want to note that isn't that bad. Running this: "prompt_tokens":560,"completion_tokens":222,"total_tokens":782 So, this is just a hair under $0.02 to do. Thinking about it, some cleanup can be done by removing the year and media type which could trim a few tokens off the request. December 28, 2022 at 07:30AM

Show HN: Merry Sky, Dark Sky replacement and merry-timeline open source lib Hello HN, This is a website I worked on during the holidays to fill the void of the upcoming dark sky shutdown. For me, the precipitation timeline was a view I was heavily relying on for everyday activities and planning. I had not found any replacement from the various weather apps. When I found pirateweather.net as a backend API, it gave me the motivation to put the pieces together and get back the experience I enjoyed. I then added more functionalities that I think was missing from the website such as a weekly chart view. I've been using the website reliably over christmas holidays. Hope you enjoy it too! Also I open sourced the visual component for drawing the precipitation timeline and you can use it for drawing weather information or any other hourly activities really https://ift.tt/XSKyMdh Interested in your feedback! https://ift.tt/D0nXsNh December 28, 2022 at 04:44AM
