yuvalsteuer··on Show HN: GPT-4-powered web searches for developers
prioritizing and extracting summeries from docs is what we do at gerev. https://github.com/gerevai/gerev to see for yourself.

Or you could try our sweet little demo: https://demo.gerev.ai

yuvalsteuer··on Show HN: GPT-4-powered web searches for developers
Open-source solution: https://github.com/gerevai/gerev
yuvalsteuer··on Show HN: self-hosted, AI-powered search engine for your workplace
Hi HN!

I built Gerev, an open-source search engine for workplace pages, conversations, & docs.

Finding information you need is hard. Native search on Confluence, Slack and Notion is terrible. Also, valuable knowledge is usually scattered among multiple apps.

I built it as entirely self-hosted, no company data is stored on a stranger's cloud, like things should be.

Gerev allows you to find: - Slack conversations. - relevant answers from Confluence or Google Drive. Or easily bring up important docs in real-time during meetings.

I believe private data should remain private. All too often, AI products send private data to cloud-based LLMs. I believe that AI should assist users without breaching their privacy.

Feel free to check it out <https://github.com/gerevai/gerev>

P.S The meaning of gerev is sock in hebrew.

yuvalsteuer··on Highschool dropout starting my buildinpublic journey
I'm Yuval, I have severe ADHD which lead to me being kicked out of highschool.

Built a few popular open-source projects, but never something commercial.

what's the hook?

very technical, born with no innate social norm capabilities. Expect stuff like door-to-door skyscraper salesmanship, in-person hazzard marketing, etc... crazy stuff :)

I promise you no spam.

I'll be sharing my #buildinpublic journey here: https://twitter.com/yuvalsteuer

Feel free to leave advice thriugh DMs

yuvalsteuer··on Launch HN: Needl (YC S22) – Simple search across all your apps
My bad, thanks for letting me know.

I tend to see Needl as peers, not competition, sometimes peers behave in bad taste.

yuvalsteuer··on Launch HN: Needl (YC S22) – Simple search across all your apps
I'm not sure of the data, I was linked this by a friend, I'm not really sure how a proprietary saas company ends up as the good guy, while we're trying to ensure the next big search platform remains open, end up as thugs.

It seems the main mods problem with what I did is plugging our github url, which made it obvious I diverted attention from needl's launch, mistake I made. I'm not deleting any comments, because I prefer context to mod interactions stand in broad daylight.

I'm truely sorry, I like this forum, mods here are awesome.

yuvalsteuer··on Launch HN: Needl (YC S22) – Simple search across all your apps
Was not my intention at all, sunlight is the best disinfectant.

I'm not saying you're accusing me of anything, but what would be a fair comment in you're eyes, I'll be happy to learn.

yuvalsteuer··on Launch HN: Needl (YC S22) – Simple search across all your apps
Hi I'm Yuval, one of the devs behind haystack, I messed around with needl + other alternatives (e.g unleash, getcommande, glean).

I talked to Max as a user over needls privacy policy.

The biggest difference is that haystack gives you search results relevant to your query. Just like google.

needl and alts are more of a spotlight/raycast alternative, great as a productivity tool, they require you to know exactly what you're looking for beforehand, in my opinion which leaves more to be desired as a search product.

Another big differencee is around data privacy, haystack is open, free and most importantly self-hosted.

Also we allow building low code custom data connectors into haystack!

It'll become publicly available next month here:

Thanks :)

Seems like a search related problem.

Also misgendering someone isn't considered hatespeech in the US.. but more so in canada. so it depends on where your located geographically, or on your stance.
yuvalsteuer··on Ask HN: Devs with ADHD do you use specialized tooling?
right. I look at bad code generation like an inaccurate search query I used in google.
yuvalsteuer··on Ask HN: Devs with ADHD do you use specialized tooling?
That's also my experience

REPL is extremely helpful for me aswell, I normally just develop whole blocks in a REPL interpreter like nodejs or IPython. And just copy the working code to an IDE.

Agree completely.

This! Github copilot is like a search engine for code without the distracting elements of a traditional search engine, for me atleast.

Wow three years is measurable time! I find myself forgetting about using a checklist when times change (more researchy times, etc...) and then not coming back to them in a while.

Read the url, highly recommended

This, I write auto updating todo list cli tools for specialized tasks because I always lose focus when trying to reprioritize todo items, etc...
