I created an app to transfer files from my PC to any device wirelessly

I found transferring images from my PC to my phone very tedious. Using Whatsapp and other such apps reduced image quality and had limitations on the file size. Using online file transfer solutions were too slow for my taste. Hence, I created a desktop app to send all sorts of files - images, PDFs, lengthy videos, etc. to any device connected to the same Wi-Fi network. You also don't need to download a separate mobile app. There's only 3 steps involved - select your files, scan a QR code, download your files. You can download it now for free via https://fyldrop.com

    Hey everyone, my friend from university and I built this simple app to handle a really specific use case: You need a picture or PDF transferred from your phone to your PC, and don't want to use whatsapp web / google photos / etc. Here's the workflow: 1. Open qrpigeon.pics on your desktop browser 2. Open your phone camera, scan the QR code, and get redirected to qrpigeon (connected to the desktop's session) 3. Upload / take a photo or PDF from your phone via the phone's browser 4. See the file appear instantly on the desktop browser! Please give us feedback! We want to make…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  • Outlines is a Python library that focuses on text generation with large language models. Brandon and I are not LLM experts and started the project a few months ago because we wanted to understand better how the generation process works. Our original background is probabilistic, relational and symbolic programming. Recently we came up with a fast way to generate text that matches a regex (https://blog.normalcomputing.ai/posts/2023-07-27-regex-guide...). The basic idea is simple: regular expressions have an equivalent Deterministic-Finite Automaton (DFA) representation. We…
