Show HN: OpenFreeMap – Open-Source Map Hosting 514 by hyperknot | 154 comments on Hacker News. Hi HN, After 9 years of running my own OpenStreetMap tile server infra for MapHub ( https://ift.tt/RX71bGx ), I've open-sourced it and launched OpenFreeMap. You can either self-host or use our public instance. Everything is open-source, including the full production setup — there’s no 'open-core' model here. Check out the repo ( https://ift.tt/G98PR0I ). The map data comes from OpenStreetMap. I also provide weekly full planet downloads both in Btrfs and MBTiles formats. I aim to cover the running costs of the public instance through donations. Looking forwards for your feedback.

Show HN: I Wrote a Book on Java 520 by goostavos | 139 comments on Hacker News. https://ift.tt/ABJmbWI... This book is a distillation of everything I’ve learned about what effective development looks like in Java (so far!). It's about how to organize programs around data "as plain data" and the surprisingly benefits that emerge when we do. Programs that are built around the data they manage tend to be simpler, smaller, and significantly easier understand. Java has changed radically over the last several years. It has picked up all kinds of new language features which support data oriented programming (records, pattern matching, `with` expressions, sum and product types). However, this is not a book about tools. No amount of studying a screw-driver will teach you how to build a house. This book focuses on house building. We'll pick out a plot of land, lay a foundation, and build upon it house that can weather any storm. DoP is based around a very simple idea, and on...

Show HN: iFixit created a new USB-C, repairable soldering system 655 by kwiens | 319 comments on Hacker News. After years of making screwdrivers and teaching people to repair electronics, we just made our first electronic tool. It's been a journey for us to build while hewing to our repairable principles. We're really excited about it. It's a USB-C powered soldering iron and smart battery power hub. Super repairable, of course. Our goal is to make soldering so easy everyone can do it: https://ift.tt/x2VdsLz We didn’t want to make just another iron, so we spent years sweating the details and crafting something that met our exacting standards. This is a high-performance iron: it can output 100W of heat, gets to soldering temperature in under 5 seconds, and automatically cools off when you set it down. The accelerometer detects when you pick it up and heats it back up. Keeping the iron at a lower temperature while you’re not soldering shouold prolong the life of the tip. Wh...

Ask HN: Why is Pave legal? 626 by nowyoudont | 235 comments on Hacker News. If you haven't heard of it, Pave is a YC-backed startup that helps startups with compensation. I can't actually access the system so I'm speaking from hearsay and what's information on public parts of their website. The way I understand it works is that you connect Pave to your HR and Payroll systems, they take the data about who you employ and how much you pay them, combine it with all their other companies, and give companies a collective breakdown of compensation ranges. My question is, isn't this specifically anti-competitive wage fixing? This seems exactly like RealPage but for employee compensation. As far as I know, colluding on wages like this is illegal. Is there something about the company that I'm missing?

Show HN: Infinity – Realistic AI characters that can speak 468 by lcolucci | 292 comments on Hacker News. Hey HN, this is Lina, Andrew, and Sidney from Infinity AI ( https://infinity.ai/ ). We've trained our own foundation video model focused on people. As far as we know, this is the first time someone has trained a video diffusion transformer that’s driven by audio input. This is cool because it allows for expressive, realistic-looking characters that actually speak. Here’s a blog with a bunch of examples: https://ift.tt/Psy30p6 If you want to try it out, you can either (1) go to https://ift.tt/4InVNoC , or (2) post a comment in this thread describing a character and we’ll generate a video for you and reply with a link. For example: “Mona Lisa saying ‘what the heck are you smiling at?’”: https://bit.ly/3z8l1TM “A 3D pixar-style gnome with a pointy red hat reciting the Declaration of Independence”: https://bit.ly/3XzpTdS “Elon Musk singing Fly Me To The Moon by Sinatra”: https:/...

Tell HN: Burnout is bad to your brain, take care 509 by tuyguntn | 207 comments on Hacker News. I am depressed and burned out for quite some time already, unfortunately my brain still couldn't recover from it. If I summarize the impact of burnout to my brain: - Before: I could learn things pretty quickly, come up with solutions to the problems, even be able to see common patterns and see bigger underlying problems - After: can't learn, can't work, can't remember, can't see solutions for trivial problems (e.g. if your shirt is wet, you can change it, but I stare at it thinking when it is going to get dried up) Take care of your mental health
