Products that do what BamBuddy – a self-hosted print archive for Bambu Lab 3D printers does
Bambu makes great hardware, but your data lives in their cloud and there's no way to export it. When a print finishes, the job is basically gone from any useful record-keeping perspective. BamBuddy fixes that by running on your own machine and tapping into the printer's local MQTT interface — so it captures everything as it happens: thumbnails, filament usage, timing, slicer settings. You end up with a fully searchable archive of your print history that's entirely yours, works offline, and never touches Bambu's servers. The catch: their local API is undocumented, so a lot of the early work…

This is a long-running project that started as the proverbial need to scratch my own itch and then somehow evolved into a full-time job of the past 6 years. Link: https://bvckup2.com I thought I'd do a Show HN for two reasons. 1. I obviously want to show my baby to those who haven't seen it. Its primary purpose is to do very fast file replication. If you are familiar with "robocopy /mir" - same idea, but on steroids. Lots of them. It can be used for both mirroring and archiving backups, among other things. It is light, very small and it is really quite fast. Half of the…

http://picirus.com For Startup Weekend Tulsa, we created a small low-power appliance (built on Raspberry Pi) that you connect to your different cloud accounts -- Facebook, Flickr, Dropbox, etc. -- and it downloads a copy of all your stuff every night. I was thinking about all the people I love who share directly to the cloud, without a lot of planning for the case where their Facebook account gets hacked, their Dropbox account has a glitch, or one of these services they love goes out of business suddenly some day. We had a ton of fun building Picirus during Startup Weekend. I highly…

So I'm a junior Go dev and I made a small site that allows me to share images with someone privately and securely, and give me control over how many times the private link can be shared and how long the image will be accessible for. There are similar services to this one, but they are either convoluted with ads, or require sign-up, or expect you to fill out a survey or something. picburn is small, safe, and has no interest (nor the code or the server space) for storing your uploads. give it a try if it fits your usecase and let me know what you think. Note: there was a typo in the url

Hi fellow HNers, We just opened up Bitdeli for free public beta at https://bitdeli.com Bitdeli allows you to process real-time data with plain Python scripts and access the results over a friendly HTTP API. You can use it to create live visualizations and dashboards without having to worry about servers. See examples here: http://bl.ocks.org/2009621 and http://bl.ocks.org/1983818 We would love to hear your feedback and comments!

Hey HN, cofounder of Artie here. We’ve built a real-time data replication tool that captures every row-level change in your source database and streams it to your warehouse in under 60 seconds. The last time I posted here, people had to book a call with us in order to access Artie. Today, that’s no longer the case. You can now connect your source and destination and start streaming immediately. I spent years of my career building large-scale data pipelines and experienced how difficult it was to get real-time data firsthand. I believed there must be a better way to stream data into our…

3D printers are still in the punchcard era where people are transferring files with SD cards. We set out to build a realtime dashboard for 3D printers on the web. http://demo.printtopeer.com Feedback is appreciated!

Hey HN! I just built PrintSwarm.com, an app that lets you get your 3D models printed by a local printer owner and delivered to you in minutes. Currently just available in NYC. What do you think? The link to the order submission form is here, just fill in the url to the 3d model you'd like to print and tell PrintSwarm where to deliver the completed print: https://printswarm.com Thanks!
