What it does

Cloud GPUs hand you a bare server to set up again every session. Hinode is a real Linux desktop with its own NVIDIA GPU. It keeps your files and setup, wakes in under a minute, auto-pauses to $0 while idle, and boosts to an RTX Pro 6000 for one heavy run.

A Linux desktop with a dedicated GPU — in your browser or a native app on Mac, Windows or Linux. Your files and environment stay put. Boost to a bigger GPU in one click. Rented pods are disposable. Your work isn't. The same evening, two ways. Pods tear down when you stop. Your models, nodes and files go with them. The next day, you start over from scratch. Hinode auto-pauses instead. Close the lid — files, apps and processes wait intact. Open it and continue where you left off. The same job on the same 24 GB card — with and without a way out. Fixed VRAM is a wall. The model needs more than the card has, and the job dies. Creating a new pod means starting over from scratch. Boost raises the…from hinode.run

    gpudeploy.com – "Airbnb" for GPUs2024 · gpudeploy.com · ▲267

    Hi HN, YC w24 company here. We just pivoted from drone delivery to build gpudeploy.com, a website that routes on-demand traffic for GPU instances to idle compute resources. The experience is similar to lambda labs, which we’ve really enjoyed for training our robotics models, but their GPUs are never available for on-demand. We are also trying to make it more no-nonsense (no hidden fees, no H100 behind “contact sales”, etc.). The tech to make this work is actually kind of nifty, we may do an in-depth HN post on that soon. Right now, we have H100s, a few RTX 4090s and a GTX 1080 Ti online.…

    Hi HN, we are Ed, Zach, and Ronald, creators of Shadeform (https://www.shadeform.ai/), a GPU marketplace to see live availability and prices across the GPU market, as well as to deploy and reserve on-demand instances. We have aggregated 8+ GPU providers into a single platform and API, so you can easily provision instances like A100s and H100s where they are available. From our experience working at AWS and Azure, we believe that cloud could evolve from all-encompassing hyperscalers (AWS, Azure, GCP) to specialized clouds for high-performance use cases. After the launch of…

  • Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  • Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
