Show HN: Live coaching app for remote SWE interviews, uses Whisper and GPT-4
Posting from a throwaway account to maintain privacy.<p>This project is a salvo against leetcode-style interviews that require candidates to study useless topics and confidently write code in front of a live audience, in order to get a job where none of that stuff matters.<p>Cheetah is an AI-powered macOS app designed to assist users during remote software engineering interviews by providing real-time, discreet coaching and integration with CoderPad. It uses Whisper for audio transcription and GPT-4 to generate hints/answers. The UI is intentionally minimal to allow for discreet use during a video call.<p>It was fun dipping into the world of LLMs, prompt chaining, etc. I didn't find a Swift wrapper for whisper.cpp, so in the repo there's also a barebones Swift framework that wraps whisper.cpp and is designed for real-time transcription on M1/M2.<p>I'll be around if anyone has questions or comments!
Show HN: ChatIDE – DIY Github Copilot X
ChatIDE is a sort of a DIY Github copilot X.<p>Launch ChatIDE with a `Cmd + Shift + i`. You bring your own OpenAI api key. You can set the system prompt, temperature, and max tokens in the extension settings.<p>The extension is currently not aware of any of the files in your project, although that might be cool to add later. Use it just like you would use ChatGPT in the browser. Feedback and contributions more than welcome.

Show HN: Promptr, let GPT operate on your codebase and other useful goodies
Hi HN,
I've been working on an experimental tool that helps you use GPT to work on your codebase. I'd love to improve the tool if there's interest. New ideas welcome! I think this could also be useful for experimenting with other types of recursive prompts.<p>It’s a little bit Swiss Army knife and a little bit skynet:<p><a href="https://github.com/ferrislucas/promptr">https://github.com/ferrislucas/promptr</a><p>From the README:
Promptr is a CLI tool for operating on your codebase using GPT. Promptr dynamically includes one or more files into your GPT prompts, and it can optionally parse and apply the changes that GPT suggests to your codebase. Several prompt templates are included for various purposes, and users can create their own templates.

Show HN: Algora – Paid open-source contributions
Hey HN! We’re Ioannis & Zaf, building Algora.io to help open source projects reward their contributors & grow their communities.<p>1 min demo: <a href="https://twitter.com/algoraio/status/1641560954746839042" rel="nofollow">https://twitter.com/algoraio/status/1641560954746839042</a><p>The problem: paid contributions in open source are scarce, low trust & high friction<p>Our solution: we built an app that streamlines open source bounties on Github<p>Our 1st customer was Remotion.dev (15.6k stars, Typescript/React) in November 2022, whose feedback helped us ship our Github app & iterate through our bounty workflow. To date, Remotion.dev has rewarded 17 open source bounties: <a href="https://github.com/remotion-dev/remotion/issues?q=label:"💎+Bounty"+is:closed">https://github.com/remotion-dev/remotion/issues?q=label:%2...</a><p>Since then, we’ve been fortunate to also onboard Cal.com (17.6k stars, Typescript/Next), IHP (3.9k stars, Haskell), Qdrant.tech (5.4k stars, Rust), erxes.io (2.8k stars, Typescript) and shuttle.rs (YC S20, 2.1k stars, Rust).<p>OSS contributors in the US, Europe (Germany, France, Norway), Canada, Nigeria, India, Egypt, UAE, Brazil, Colombia, Philippines and Australia have already earned bounties with Algora — we hope this list keeps growing!<p>We also started a COSS founder interview series to share lessons & advice for building open source companies: <a href="https://youtube.com/@algora-io">https://youtube.com/@algora-io</a><p>We are really excited to hear your feedback/questions and connect further: our emails are ioannis@algora.io & zafer@algora.io. Thank you!
