Show HN: Ploomber Cloud (YC W22) – run notebooks at scale without infrastructure 22 by idomi | 3 comments on Hacker News. Hi, we’re Ido & Eduardo, the founders of Ploomber. We’re launching Ploomber Cloud today, a service that allows data scientists to scale their work from their laptops to the cloud. Our open-source users ( https://ift.tt/ZiQjCDe ) usually start their work on their laptops; however, often, their local environment falls short, and they need more resources. Typical use cases run out of memory or optimize models to squeeze out the best performance. Ploomber Cloud eases this transition by allowing users to quickly move their existing projects into the cloud without extra configurations. Furthermore, users can request custom resources for specific tasks (vCPUs, GPUs, RAM). Both of us experienced this challenge firsthand. Analysis usually starts in a local notebook or script, and whenever we wanted to run our code on a larger infrastructure we had to refactor the code

Show HN: Data Diff – compare tables of any size across databases 27 by hichkaker | 0 comments on Hacker News. Gleb, Alex, Erez and Simon here – we are building an open-source tool for comparing data within and across databases at any scale. The repo is at https://ift.tt/Q9kGcsf , and our home page is https://datafold.com/ . As a company, Datafold builds tools for data engineers to automate the most tedious and error-prone tasks falling through the cracks of the modern data stack, such as data testing and lineage. We launched two years ago with a tool for regression-testing changes to ETL code https://ift.tt/yJ3KbCx . It compares the produced data before and after the code change and shows the impact on values, aggregate metrics, and downstream data applications. While working with many customers on improving their data engineering experience, we kept hearing that they needed to diff their data across databases to validate data replication between systems. There were 3 main use cases

Ask HN: Best dev tool pitches of all time? 117 by swyx | 57 comments on Hacker News. Hey folks! I'm trying to actively get better at pitching developer tools. So I had the idea of collecting an inspiration list of the "best of all time". Would like to crowdsource this! The vibe I'm going for is pitches that left you with a clear "before" and "after" division in your life where you not only "got it" but also keep referring to it from that point onward. Obvious candidate for example is DHH's 15 minute Rails demo (and i've been told the Elixir Liveview demo is similar) and Solomon Hykes' Docker demo. What other pitch is like that? (or successfully pitches a developer tool in a different way, up to your interpretation)

I’m not sure if anyone noticed but NYTimes’ quality has gone downhill for the past 2-3 years and why is there no dark mode on the app? WSJ looks good but there are issues with cancellation. Edit: I am from Southeast Asia and got lots of family and relatives in the USA, so the obvious interest in Western and EU culture and politics.
