When the user is typing the string, I seperate the last 10 words into reversed joined words, e.g. tall dark handsome man becomes "man", "handsome man", "dark handsome man" and "tall dark handsome man", and I send the full string to Jev and ask it to tell me with probabilities of each option which is the best one to fully capture the descriptive noun

For my specific example: "the tall dark handsome man wanders into a dark gloomy bar. he orders the biggest beer in the world and sits down on a bar stool surrounded by irish dancers" spacy splits out "the biggest beer" and "the world", whereas I want "the biggest beer in the world" to be the singular noun.

https://x.com/dWeaths/status/2102415625301717065 - Here's my use case of jev, being able to accurately detect nouns (with adverbs, adjectives etc.) in realtime as the user is typing it, genuinely feels like it's running locally with how fast it comes back. I've sent over 1000 requests to Jev and its cost me $0.01 (probably rounded up!).

Didn't you hear? you must hire a real artist to do that for you or you're exploiting the industry

https://replays.lol/clipper - A spin off from my main startup's product that lets Twitch streamers review their viewers' league of legend clips. Zero friction as we handle the recording of clips ourselves using bots that load up people's previous games using the League of Legends game client. Went live with my first medium-size streamer yesterday, excited to see how this goes!

Similar to Cameo but hyper specialised for league of legend streamers, if this shows some traction we'll expand to other games, and then to other industries (think a tennis star reviews one of your tennis points, beats out a generic happy birthday message?)

I'm building a Twitch streamer focused version of cameo. The first beta version is specifically for League of Legend streamers.

https://demo.replays.lol/clipper (recording the demo video today).

The idea is that a generic video message doesn't appeal to a fan of a video game streamer, instead what really would be cool would be watching them react to your best moment in a game.

Our software removes all friction from the journey, the fan doesn't even need to record their own gameplay, we have bots set up that can load up someone else's gameplay just from their username, record their highlight for them, upload it to our platform, then the streamer just needs to come in, watch a ~60 sec clip, give a genuine reaction, press 'submit' and its all done.

There's a few markets I'm trying to find product market fit in: ~1-2 minute coaching sessions, sports commentator style commentary over your clip from influencers, hyped up reactions from your favorite streamer, a community-focused segment on a stream of watching a compilation of your fan's best moments.

We're ready to launch, just trying and struggling to find the first few people to sign up.

Their proprietary models are very good too and go under the radar, they never seem to appear on any benchmarks. Qwen3-coder-plus is significantly better than their open source qwen3, Qwen3 max also rivals the SOTA models

$50 per month is their SaaS solution that let's you make 1000 requests per day. The openrouter cost is the raw API cost if you try to use qwen3-coder via the pay as you go model when using Cline

https://inspo.dev - The idea is a chrome extension that let's you iterate ridiculously fast on frontend web components - click one button, select the element like you're using Chrome's inspect dev tools, press generate, and 60 seconds later, AI has given you ~7-10 new variations on how you could style that component, with the code ready to implement.

Struggling to get the generated iterations to be up to a standard I'm happy with at the moment, but improving every day!

A share button is a great idea, thanks!

I think there's a big difference with how designers and programmers can use AI to enhance their work, and how exploited the average person's work has been. A lot of designers publish their work on social media, or it's visible on their websites etc., which AI models have used to train with. But with coding, most people's code only exists in private repos, or is compiled to a format that LLMs cant easily be trained on.

Yes, but Warren Buffer doesn't live in El Salvador, so the only thing he could do with BTC is sell it to someone for USD so the point still stands
