If you've built any web-based app in the last 15 years, you probably used something like Datadog, New Relic, Sentry, etc. to monitor and trace your app, right? Why should it be different when the app you're building happens to be using LLMs? So today we're open-sourcing OpenLLMetry-JS. It's an open protocol and SDK, based on OpenTelemetry, that provides traces and metrics for LLM JS/TS applications and can be connected to any of the 15+ tools that already support OpenTelemetry. Here's the repo: https://github.com/traceloop/openllmetry-js A few months ago we launched…

Hi HN, I'm developing an open-source water meter for Home Assistant and thought the HN community might be interested. I've been using some version of it after a few costly toilet leaks that my city meter missed. Recently, I decided to polish it up so others could use it. It might also function as a gas meter reader (https://youtu.be/9Dso4EBAoiE), but this is still experimental. The device runs on 3 AA batteries and utilizes an ESP32-S3. It works by measuring the spinning magnet inside the brass housing. It stays in deep sleep until it needs to transmit usage or leak…

This has been a pet project of mine for the past ~5 months. It consists of six visualizations: - Spectrogram: Implements the reassignment method for sharper time and frequency resolution. - Spectrum analyzer: A-weighted, frequency guidelines, loudest frequency tooltip. - Waveform: Colored based on frequency, loudness, or static - Oscilloscope: Tracks pitch and autocorrelates against a reference signal, provides stability. Also includes a regular zero-crossing trigger. - Stereometer & Phase meter: Linear and exponential scaling modes, adjustable windows. Multi-band correlation meter. -…
