danvass··on Re-implementing LangChain in 100 lines of code
We've been building LLM chains for over a year and found that whilst for simple use-cases it's easy enough to grab a couple of APIs. However, having a Notebook experience built for iterating and collaborating whilst managing the complexity is something we've seen companies care deeply about.

danvass··on Show HN: Paris My State – Contact your state governor to follow Paris agreement
The goal is to get more states to join this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Climate_Alliance - which essentially looks at ensuring states are "committed to upholding the 2015 Paris Agreement on climate change within their borders, by achieving the U.S. goal of reducing emissions 26–28 percent from 2005 levels by 2025". It's not the same as the US being part of the Paris agreement, but it's the next big thing at the moment looking at lowering emission levels throughout the US.
danvass··on Show HN: The first keyboard with haptic feedback for iOS (iPhone 7)
You get haptic feedback without full access? That shouldn't be possible. The engine is only available to the keyboard if full access is enabled.

I just wanted to stress that this app is only for iPhone 7 and 7 plus (if the title and description in the app store isn't enough) as they are currently the only devices that have the Taptic Engine. If you have an older device, it will not work.
danvass··on Show HN: The first keyboard with haptic feedback for iOS (iPhone 7)
With the brilliant new Taptic Engine in the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus we decided to make use of it by adding haptic feedback to the keyboard! This is only the first release and we've got big plans for where to go from here but we wanted to start getting some feedback.

Here are some free promo codes for those early enough to the party :)

danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
This is now fixed!
danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
I found it hard to put it succinctly but I quite like your description. Might use that instead!
danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
Thanks, I'll put it on the feature list.
danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
It is using Skyscanner. As for $false, that's some strange bug. I'll debug it now and push out a fix soon.
danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
Used to handle that, not sure why not anymore. I'll definitely fix it up. I'm planning on making it so that it tries to guess what you mean (essentially first auto-suggestion) if you don't click on it.
danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
As others mentioned stuff like that already exists, we wanted to make something we hadn't seen anywhere else.
danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
Thank you for that! I'll debug it now to see what's gone wrong, very strange.
danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
Try it now! We put out an update that makes it A LOT better.
danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
That's a 'short' API key, it's not the full one. It's their public variant. Thank you though!
danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
We're making some changes on this, thank you for the feedback!
danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
If you're flying to multiple destinations it matters which destination you visit first, which one second and so forth. SkySave tells you which route is the cheapest. For example, it can be a lot cheaper to fly London -> New York -> Miami -> Los Angeles -> London than if you were to go to LA first and then Miami. Does that make more sense?
danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
I've fixed it now, shouldn't happen anymore!
danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
Nice!
danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
Unfortunately it's displaying very strange in browsers and not preservring the two columns. It's supposed to go destination, duration, destination, duration etc.

Will be releasing a fix for this shortly.

danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
Thanks Colin, we have a chat support on there too so we can see what's going on but definitely working now :)
danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
Yeah bit confusing on mobile :/ trying to think of a better way to present the form
danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
That's very bizarre that you got an error then! Could you try it again please, oh and make sure to set a date a bit into the future as otherwise might not have as many flights available.

Wonderful suggestion :) I'll make it so you can input a different final stop to you're starting point. We want to keep it free and potentially monetise via affiliate sales and show people how much we've saved them, perhaps some would be generous to donate 1% of the amount they saved? Who knows!

We'll definitely be fixing it up though, still a bit rough around the edges haha.

danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
SkySave finds you the cheapest route when visiting multiple destinations. So if you want to visit LA, New York and Miami and you're in London it'll tell you the cheapest route (ie. go from London to LA then NY then Miami and then back to London) and if you tried going first to NY and then LA etc. it could be a lot more expensive. You need to pick a result from the auto-suggestion dropdown and you just need to say how many days you want to stay at each place. We will be adding in tolerance though! Nice suggestion
danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
Make sure you remove the third field if you're not using it, fixing that now :)
danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
You need to make sure you pick a destination from the suggestion box (click on it), enter the number of days for each destination and click the '-' button if you're not using one of the destination fields. Sorry if that's a bit confusing, currently improving that so it's a little bit more lenient :)

EDIT: We're pushing out a fix now that should resolve this, you can now have empty fields for destinations and it'll just include the filled out ones.

danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
Thank you, we'll look for alternatives on the video ha :) Our mobile view also is a bit confusing at the moment so trying to make that look a bit better too!
danvass··on Show HN: Cheaper flights when flying multiple destinations by route optimisation
Thanks for trying it out and the feedback! It's available for any destination in the world. 'Home' is just the airport that you're starting out from and returning to. So for example, if you're in Paris and want to visit LA, New York and Miami it'll find the best way to go from Paris -> LA -> NY -> Miami -> Paris. Where LA, NY, Miami will be in the cheapest order. Or you could enter for destinations like, Beijing, Bangkok and Singapore.
