Lost Pixel – open-source visual regression testing for your frontend
Hey! My name is Dima, I am from Ukraine and I am the co-founder of Lost Pixel! We built this tool to solve our problems at work and decided to open-source it so more people can build their custom visual regression testing pipelines! If you want to chat about the tool or visual regression testing in general I am super excited to meet like-minded people! Thanks a lot for checking out the product and I hope it will serve you well if you decide to try it out :D

In plain words
Lost Pixel is an open-source visual regression testing tool for frontend development. It detects unintended visual changes in web applications by comparing screenshots across versions. The tool enables developers to build custom testing pipelines tailored to their specific needs, helping catch design inconsistencies and rendering issues before they reach users.

Fully client-side GPT2 prediction visualizer2023 · perplexity.vercel.app · ▲153Hi HN! I've found this visualization tool immensely helpful over the years for getting an intuition for how an LLM "sees" some piece of text, and with a bit of elbow grease decided to move all compute to client side so I could make it publicly available. I've found it particularly useful for - Understanding exactly how repetition and patterns affect a small LM's ability to predict correctly - Understanding different tokenization patterns and how it affects model output - Getting a general sense of how "hard" different prediction tasks are for GPT-style models Known problems (that I probably…
- IT“Is this loss?”: A TensorFlow Lite app to detect Loss.jpg2018 · ▲82
I built this app over a week as a way to learn how to use TensorFlow with Mobilenets and to get some experience with Google Play (and partly as a dare). It's written in Java, as I wasn't able to find a Kotlin API for TFLite. It was built with Bazel. I'm pretty satisfied with the actual detector's performance, although I expect I could improve the UI a little bit. It's a weird UX, as you want it to be as simple and fast as possible (loss/notloss) but you also want it to have some sort of recognizability. I would love to hear your thoughts.…

Talanoa▲343Hi 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…

A couple of years ago, I had an interesting idea. What if there was a marketplace where all the underlying tech was open-source? The order management system, the storefront, customer support, etc. The marketplace would simply connect to the seller’s infra instead of locking them in. If, for some reason, the seller is removed from the marketplace, their software stays with them and they can continue accepting orders directly. This model can be used to disrupt any marketplace from AirBNB to UberEats: building tech for home renters and restaurants and later, leveraging that to build a competing…
