Show HN: Moonshine Open-Weights STT models – higher accuracy than WhisperLargev3
I wanted to share our new speech to text model, and the library to use them effectively. We're a small startup (six people, sub-$100k monthly GPU budget) so I'm proud of the work the team has done to create streaming STT models with lower word-error rates than OpenAI's largest Whisper model. Admittedly Large v3 is a couple of years old, but we're near the top the HF OpenASR leaderboard, even up against Nvidia's Parakeet family. Anyway, I'd love to get feedback on the models and software, and hear about what people might build with it.

Show HN: Tinder, but to Decide What to Eat
Hello HN,<p>My girlfriend and I waste too much energy to decide what to eat. Every day, we would text each other, "what do we eat tonight" messages, and go over options and many times spend too much time on deciding. I am an indie dev and created this app to solve my own problem: decide with my girlfriend what to eat for dinner.<p>Initially, I created a simple app, in which we listed all the recipes we ever prepared, and it would propose randomly three of them. We would then choose together one of them. This app[0] turned into a tinder-like app, which would propose every day a set of recipes to my girlfriend and me - we would swipe and go for the first match.<p>If have some time, give it a try and feedback is very appreciated!<p>Cheers,

Show HN: A minimalist (brutalist?) website for sharing all your links
Do you remember the internet of the early 2000s? Neat single function websites that let you be creative and customize your spaces and weren't setting out to be the next major conglomerate (or to be bought by them).<p>I'm building a series of websites that have simple concepts but too many of the players have tried to make their product so big. I also used to live in a very rural area so my goal is to make websites that load fast even on very slow internet. I'm starting with Lynx.boo.<p>A linktree style website that lets you fully customize your CSS (and adds a bunch of classes to your links to help style them easier as well as very non-restrictive CSS you can do html{display:none;} if you really want to) and the features aren't locked behind yet-another monthly fee. I'll be adding analytic support when I figure out the best way to do it.<p>Also there isn't a user system (per se), you just confirm changes by email but you never register for the site and you won't be spammed. Please feel free to try to break the CSS (or anything) as much as you want. I think it's fairly robust but I would love any security vulnerabilities you see.<p>Thank you for your time!
