Revel to Provide New Shared Electric Mopeds To Fill Transportation Gaps
Revel to Provide New Shared Electric Mopeds To Fill Transportation Gaps

By Bradley Dunn
Expanding shared mobility services is an important part of the SFMTA’s goal to provide sustainable mobility options. These programs support our climate change and equity goals by reducing our city’s reliance on single-occupancy vehicles. On August 31, Revel is expected to launch approximately 430 e-mopeds in San Francisco helping fill gaps in our transportation network while transit service is reduced and beyond.
Shared electric mopeds offer a zero-emission choice for getting around San Francisco. Shared e-mopeds help make better use of travel lanes and scarce curb, using little scraps too small to park even the tiniest car. During COVID-19, shared e-mopeds provide a mobility alternative that doesn’t contribute to traffic congestion and doesn’t burden transit, helping make more room on Muni for essential workers and transit-dependent San Franciscans.
The SFMTA has approved Revel Transit, a New York-based moped operator, as a Shared Electric Moped Organization and has issued Revel 432 parking permit stickers. The permit fees paid by Revel include estimated prepayment for the use of parking meters and Residential Parking Permits of the mopeds.

The Shared Electric Moped Parking Permit exempts Revel from certain on-street parking regulations in exchange for sharing utilization data with the SFMTA. A moped bearing a valid Shared Electric Moped Parking Permit is exempt from:
- Residential Parking Permit (RPP) time limit restrictions;
- meter payment when parked at metered motorcycle stalls; and
- meter payment when parked at the end of a full-size metered parallel stall.
The Shared Electric Moped Parking Permit does not exempt a permitted moped from any other parking restriction.
Revel will launch with a service area that includes the Haight, Tenderloin, Castro, Mission District, Outer Mission, Cow Hollow, Financial District, Dogpatch, Richmond District, Golden Gate Heights, and Pacific Heights. The SFMTA will work with Revel to grow their service area to reach every corner of the city.
Revel will also offer its Access program in San Francisco, allowing riders who are eligible for any local, state, or federal assistance programs to receive a 40 percent discount on rides. Active military and veterans will also be eligible to receive a 20 percent discount on rides.
Each Revel moped is equipped with two U.S. DOT-certified helmets that must be worn at all times. Every San Francisco rider is covered by third-party liability insurance, and all riders are required to abide by all local traffic and parking laws.
Expanding existing e-moped service to provide people with sustainable travel options is part of the agency’s overall Transportation Recovery Plan. As congestion threatens our economic recovery and climate change is a continuing emergency, shared electric mopeds offer more ways to move around San Francisco without creating congestion and greenhouse gas emissions.

Show HN: WunderGraph – Aggregate REST and GraphQL APIs, Add AuthN/Z and Caching Hey, I'm Jens, founder of WunderGraph. Over the years of working with REST & GraphQL APIs, I found that some aspects of using it are way too complicated. Here's a list of problems I believe could be abstracted away: - Aggregating multiple GraphQL, REST, etc. APIs into a simple to use API (Backend for Frontend) without writing code - adding Authentication & Authorization to APIs you don't have full control over - adding efficient and easy to use Caching to GraphQL APIs without writing code - adding persisted queries for security and performance reasons without making my application code and deployment process more complex Companies like Facebook, who are concerned about security and performance, use persisted Queries and don't expose their GraphQL API directly to the public. While developing they write their Queries using Relay and persist (whitelist) them at compile time. At least that's my understanding from their blog posts and conference talks. WunderGraph takes this approach to the next level by turning the flow around. Relay, Apollo, URQL, etc. are very complex pieces of software because of the dynamic nature of GraphQL. With WunderGraph we define all Operations in GraphiQL "on the server" and then generate a very simple client from it. In a nutshell, Queries become simple GET requests with variables as query parameters, Mutations still are POST requests but just with variables as the body. A more in depth explanation including an example can be found here: https://www.reddit.com/r/graphql/comments/ijui1x/show_wundergraph_public_beta_aggregate_rest/ More info & docs: https://wundergraph.com/ For those who like to watch videos, here's a general overview: https://youtu.be/RwkThD5pz1E Here's a full 26m tutorial with React & Typescript that helps to start from scratch: https://youtu.be/8BQNeeVoFGI August 31, 2020 at 02:06AM

Show HN: Tool for Automating SQL Transforms https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24307677
Show HN: Tool for Automating SQL Transforms Hey everyone this is Michael and Daniel from the structure.rest team. We built structure as an alternative to the command line based tools that currently exist for building DAGs for your data warehouse. With command line based tools, you have to edit and explore in a sql editor, paste that into a code editor, use the command line tool and use a web browser to view your data catalog. And then you have to go back and forth constantly between all these tools and do this over and over again for the hundreds of models in your DAG. Instead, we’ve built an open source editor + command line utility that integrates all of this into a single integrated experience. We feel that better tools lead to better data analysis which helps organizations make better data driven decisions Here’s a video that shows how intuitive the structure editor is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hskhBTyg258 Come check us out at www.structure.rest and join our slack (https://join.slack.com/t/structuresupport/shared_invite/zt-ddx04ho4-_q43i5o3zQ9jv00qx~dx8A) . Both the editor and command line utility are open source and the editor downloads as an app for Windows, Linux, and Mac. Our command line tool makes it easy to run your DAG as part of CI/CD. We currently support snowflake (https://www.snowflake.com/), but we are looking forward to supporting other platforms. Let us know if there is a platform you would like us to support next.

Launch HN: SuperTokens (YC S20) – Securely manage session tokens https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24306572
Launch HN: SuperTokens (YC S20) – Securely manage session tokens Hi everyone! My name is Advait and I co-founded SuperTokens along with @rishabhpoddar ( https://supertokens.io/ ). SuperTokens helps companies securely manage their session tokens, saving developer time and preventing identity theft. We started SuperTokens 1.5 years ago when we were building a consumer app and wanted our users to be logged in for a long time in a secure way. When it came to managing user sessions, there was a lot of ambiguity. We read many forums (Reddit, Stackoverflow) and blogs, and found that developers were arguing about best practices, such as using local storage vs cookies, implementing JWTs, etc. We had to do a lot of the first principles thinking ourselves to understand the tradeoffs. Around the same time, Facebook, Docker, Gitlab, Youtube, Uber were in the news for session vulnerabilities. Stealing a user’s session allows you to access their account as if you had their username and password. Hence being able to mitigate against this is important. We’ve audited companies and found large session vulnerabilities that they were not aware of. For a YC company, we were able to pull information on users that we shouldn’t have had access to. Through our research, we built something internally and decided to write a blog post [1] explaining how our system works. While SuperTokens is not currently open source, you can see the original codebase on Github [2]. Building a good solution for sessions requires a lot of specialised knowledge and time that could otherwise be spent on building your core business logic. Detecting session theft reliably is difficult. There are multiple race conditions, edge cases and network issues that need to be thought about. In fact, one of our libraries that solves a difficult race condition has 100K downloads / week and is even used by Auth0 [3] SuperToken mitigates against all session attacks (XSS, CSRF, etc) by implementing best practices. For a full list of types of attacks with real life examples please see [4]. However, it is not possible to mitigate against all attacks (for eg: social engineering) and hence, SuperTokens is also able to detect session theft. We use rotating refresh tokens as per the official OAuth specifications in RFC 6819 [5]. Auth0 has also started offering this, but due to their setup, they cannot use httpOnly cookies to store these tokens and this goes against popular compliance recommendations. Besides security, SuperTokens also offers improved API performance and developer convenience. For clustered and distributed environments, session verification for each API takes < 1 millisecond. You can get a user’s ID and access role without any database lookup. SuperTokens can be implemented in 15 minutes, provides a simple API and has clear documentation. We abstract away complexities of token management by providing frontend and backend SDKs. In the coming months we plan to offer Access Control, Internal Auth between services and for internal tools (i.e. recent Twitter hack was through unauthorized access to an internal tool), and more! We're still experimenting with pricing, so you won't find this on our website, but we'd love to hear your thoughts about it. Thank you for reading! We’d love to hear what this community specifically has to say and if you have any experience dealing with this. We’d appreciate any feedback! ---------- Footnotes: [1] - Blog post: https://medium.com/hackernoon/all-you-need-to-know-about-use...

Show HN: My Indie Hacker goal - Earn $100 a day to keep your desk job away My goal when I first started as an Indie Hacker was to earn $100/day. Everything that I did was to achieve that goal. I reached that goal after 6 months and I increased my goal to $200/day. I reached that goal a year back, now my current goal is $300/day. This might look small sometimes and easy to achieve but it's not and when you get small wins, you move to a bigger goal all the while maintaining the momentum and enthusiasm. On the flips side, if I had set my goal to $10K/month, it would seem very big and I might have given up very early (Actually I wouldn't because I quit my job and hate 9 to 5 job). A lot of people might not see any gratification anytime soon with big goals. Its always good to set small realistic goals which will ultimately make you a successful maker in the long run.

Reimagine Potrero Yard with Us – Summer Milestones
Reimagine Potrero Yard with Us – Summer Milestones
By Adrienne Heim
Published August 26, 2020 at 06:23PM

By Adrienne Heim
The Potrero Yard Modernization Project will rebuild the existing Potrero bus yard to ensure we maintain our bus fleet as efficiently as possible and enhance the facility’s resilience to climate change and other natural disasters. The Project will also ensure our staff is able to perform their work in a safe and efficient way and address the City’s broader goals for new housing and affordable housing. The Project has issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ), an important step for modernizing the yard.
The Project Concept
The modern yard will be able to store 213 buses, increasing capacity by approximately 50%.
In addition, the facility will include the following features:
- LEED Gold Certification
- An elevated structural and seismic building standard
- Infrastructure for battery-electric buses
- Centralized location for Street Operations - Muni’s “first responders”
- Centralized, modern space for Muni operator training
- Active ground floor uses on Bryant, and possibly 17th streets
“This exciting project will help fix two of the city's most pressing issues: lack of affordable housing and unreliable transit service,” said Alexander Hirji, Potrero Yard Neighborhood Working Group member and San Francisco Youth Commissioner. “The yard portion of the Project allows the SFMTA to maintain buses effectively, send them out to the riders, and it allows for future bus technology innovations in years to come. Up top, the affordable housing portion allows this city to make strides toward its goals for providing quality affordable housing to residents. This project will shape the Agency for many decades, and in a good, sustainable, and equitable way.”
Housing on Top of the Yard
The SFMTA is proposing up to 575 rental units of housing with an initial affordability target of 50%. The city’s committed to addressing the shortage of affordable housing and is therefore challenging potential developers to seek additional funds to maximize the affordability percentage, up to as much as 100% affordable. Many factors informed the proposed project’s size and unit count, such as building height, massing, financial feasibility and shadows on Franklin Square.
Two months ago, virtual community conversations were hosted to provide a refresher about the project and discuss where we are in the process. If you were unable to attend, please listen to the June 6 conversation to hear the project team and members of the community discuss the project.
We’re excited to announce that we’ve achieved three major milestones last week:
- The Project’s Request for Qualifications (RFQ) was issued to begin the developer procurement process followed by a press release.
The RFQ is the first of a two-step process to bring a developer partner under contract with the city. This stage is to pre-qualify a group of professionals who have the experience and financial backing to successfully complete this project. Ideally, we will end up with three qualified developer teams.
The second step is to ask those pre-qualified teams for project proposals as part of the Request for Proposal (RFP) stage, which will end up in the selection of a single developer partner.
- Special legislation was introduced by the Board of Supervisors last Tuesday, August 18, to set rules for a long-term agreement with a developer team that would design, build, finance, operate and maintain the new yard.
The legislation obligates the project to prevailing wages, a Local Business Enterprise (LBE) program, the city’s local hire policy and first source hiring ordinance. The ordinance also allows payment of a design stipend for up to two unsuccessful respondent development teams. This special legislation will first be heard by the Budget and Finance Committee consisting of Supervisors Walton, Fewer and Mandelman.
- A meeting to introduce all the topic areas that will be covered in the environmental impact document (referred collectively as the “project scope”) will be held by the San Francisco Planning Department on Wednesday, September 2, beginning at 6:00 p.m.
You may also view a video presentation by SF Planning for the project and provide comments to cpc.PotreroYardEIR@sfgov.org concerning the scope of the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) until 5:00 p.m., September 18.
The meeting event will take place on Zoom: https://swca.zoom.us/s/92577630432/ Meeting ID: 925 7763 0432, or join by phone at 1.888.475.4499.
The purpose of the meeting is to collect comments from other regulatory agencies and the public on the draft scope. This is an opportunity for the public to add topic areas that SF Planning may not have included in their initial scoping process. More information can be found at the Planning Environmental Review Documents page under Potrero Yard Modernization Project – 2019-021884ENV.
Community Outreach
We will be tabling on Labor Day weekend, September 5 and 6, from noon to 5:00 p.m. at John O’Connell High School (Harrison Street between 18th and 20th streets) for the Carnaval San Francisco Latino COVID-19 Healing & Recovery – Salud es Poder event hosted by CANA-Carnaval San Francisco in partnership with the San Francisco Latino Task Force, community based organizations, health providers, and San Francisco City Departments.
We’re also planning to host English- and Spanish-language virtual community events to discuss the second step of the developer procurement process, the RFP, which we hope to issue in early 2021.

Show HN: VPN startup introduces new and unique features to VPN market https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24256813
Show HN: VPN startup introduces new and unique features to VPN market Hi everyone, We recently launched our VPN service into a stable release. Our VPN works differently to traditional VPN services. Some highlights are; 1. Automatic Regioning - Connect to a VPN exit-node and streaming services are unblocked from around the world automatically. There is no need to switch regions. 2. Custom DNS - Filter by Adult, Malware, Ads and Social Networks. This also allows you to set up your own custom block lists which you create. In addition to that, you can use your own DNS and allow the VPN to keep the DNS rules in place ( or not, depending on your needs ). 3. Device Profiles - Add up to 100 profiles to your account. This allows you to have set rules for every device you own. This is very useful for families with young children as well as adults who want to tweak their network setup. 4. Advanced Port Forwarding - Allows you to set the forwarded port, taking away the need to modify your applications. It also has a permanent URL to allow you to access your device regardless of which server you are connected to. This also caters for device profiles. If you would like to find out more about these features you can do so at www.oeck.com/manual/ In addition to all of those features the VPN is high-security. All of our hardware ( including the routers ) are owned by us. You can test out the service completely free for 6 hours ( no payment information required ). We would love to hear feedback and what you all think of it. URL - https://www.oeck.com/ Regards, Peter @ Oeck. August 23, 2020 at 06:31PM

Show HN: My brother wrote this program from jail https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24218964
Show HN: My brother wrote this program from jail Hi HN!, My brother got a 5 years jail sentence but is coming out soon, a few months ago he decided to learn to code with no prior experience. I find the way he is studying very inspirational so decided to post his (simple) program. But first, here is what he needs to go through to learn: - We the family send him javascript and html books - He studies them and writes programs in pen and paper - He calls me so I input what he wrote on my computer and we debug it live via a phone call, he has to imagine the program in his head. The crazy part is up until a few days ago he didn't have access to a computer. However! another inmate has an upcoming trial and because the contents of his trial contain to many papers, they provided this inmate with a simple laptop (no internet). My brother is not allowed to touch this laptop and he can only see this inmate 1 hour a day, so he convinced the inmate to sit next to him for my brother to tell him what to type, the other inmate types in the html+js on a notepad file and this way my brother can finally see his programs on a screen after months of only imagining how to program. Here is the program we wrote today: https://codepen.io/throwaway0944/pen/dyMpqJq My dream is for this to get some traction so when he calls I can tell him his program has users :) August 19, 2020 at 06:35PM
New Interactive “Shared Spaces” Map and Dashboard Launched
New Interactive “Shared Spaces” Map and Dashboard Launched
By Phillip Pierce
Published August 19, 2020 at 06:48PM
https://www.sfmta.com/blog/new-interactive-shared-spaces-map-and-dashboard-launched
By Phillip Pierce
San Francisco’s popular Shared Spaces program, in which the SFMTA is a participating agency, now has an exciting new tool: an interactive map showing the locations and status of all the proposed Shared Spaces locations. The map is designed to make it easier for people to find Shared Spaces, check on permit status or simply track the progress of the program.
“We are so excited to see the new Shared Spaces Tracker that lets restaurants, businesses and residents see where the sidewalk and parking lane permit applications are located and details the status of each application,” said Laurie Thomas, Executive Director of the Golden Gate Restaurant Association. “The willingness to share this information publicly is a testament to how well the City has been working with businesses during this unprecedented time.”
Shared Spaces allows merchants to use sidewalks, full or partial streets, and other nearby public spaces like parks, parking lots and plazas for restaurant pick-up and other neighborhood retail activities allowed under San Francisco’s Public Health Orders. The new program is a multiagency collaboration born out of the city’s Economic Recovery Task Force.
There have been more than a thousand applications for Shared Spaces for uses like outdoor dining in parking spaces or allowing multiple retailers to operate in the open air by repurposing a parking lot. There are important guidelines for the program to ensure accessibility and safety.
“The Shared Spaces program is vital to helping businesses like ours survive right now,” said China Live restaurant owners George Chan and Cindy Wong-Chen. “We are grateful for the responsiveness of the city to make this happen in such a short amount of time.”
Businesses are also applying for temporary full street closures for certain days and hours of the week. The first two successes were Grant Avenue in Chinatown and Valencia Street in the Mission. More recent approvals include Irving Street between 19th and 20th Avenues and Gold Alley in North Beach. Starting later this month, SoMa will have a recurring Shared Space every Sunday on Folsom from 6th to 8th streets. More closures are in the works for the Bayview, Tenderloin, Castro, Excelsior, Marina, Sunset, Richmond and other parts of the city.
Not every location is a good fit for every type of Shared Space, but the Shared Spaces teams work hard with businesses to find solutions. So far, fewer than 3% of applications were initially ineligible under program guidelines, but most of these were reworked into successful projects.
Next Steps: Keep Evolving and More Outreach
The Shared Spaces program will continue to evolve with new health orders and as other types of business reopen. By looking at the data, we also know that there are more Shared Spaces in some neighborhoods than others. While some of that disparity is related to density and location of restaurants, we also know that not everyone has the resources to take advantage of these programs during this challenging time. In the weeks ahead, we are dedicating more resources to targeted outreach in areas that are not already benefiting from the program.
For more information on the program or to apply, give feedback, report a problem or view the live tracker, visit sf.gov/SharedSpaces. Questions or media inquiries? Please email SharedSpaces@sfgov.org

Launch HN: Tella (YC S20) – Collaborative video editing in the browser https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24158509
Launch HN: Tella (YC S20) – Collaborative video editing in the browser Tella ( https://www.tella.tv/ ) is a collaborative online video editor for screen and camera recordings. We're making video creation accessible to people who have no prior editing experience. Sharing screen and camera recordings is a rapidly growing way for people to communicate at work, especially in technology where the subject matter is often on screens (new features, code, designs). But while people are creating more video for work, it's usually for the convenience of the creator and not the viewer. One-take screen recordings can be long, boring, and difficult to watch. We're trying to change this by letting people produce and edit their recordings so that it's a better experience for viewers. Michiel and I used to work at a large remote company and this was where we saw the potential of edited video content in the workplace. One of the biggest challenges was keeping business teams up-to-date with product teams. The most effective solution was product teams sharing videos about their work over Slack, which the rest of the organisation watched in their own time. Product teams made videos about new projects, progress updates, launches, user research, and so on. The most interesting aspect of the approach was that the videos weren't just screen recordings, they were edited and often well-produced videos. The better the production, the better the engagement was. Teams approached the production of these videos in the same way as preparing a slide deck for a presentation. We loved the format and saw its potential, especially in a remote workplace, but it had some problems. Video editing is time consuming, and working on a video with a teammate takes even longer. Video editing also has a high barrier to entry. Purchasing Screenflow or Final Cut (or other long-format editors) and then learning how to use it prohibits people from trying video as a form of sharing information. So we set out to build a video editor that focuses on screen and camera recording (where most of the subject matter comes from at work), allows for collaboration (many people work in teams and expect the tools they use to support this), and makes editing straightforward (putting together a video should be as simple as putting together a slide deck). Our implementation takes a different approach to most editors. We wanted something that was fast, lightweight, and could run in a web browser—appealing to people completely new to video editing. We also wanted to support real-time collaboration. Instead of transcoding all content to a video format, we created our own video player that controls the timing and display of HTML elements. Let's say your video consists of a couple recordings, some text, and some images. Tella plots these different bits of content on a timeline and then plays them back in sequence on a webpage. The benefit of this is that we can use anything that you can do with HTML, CSS and JS to create a video. We're not bound to ffmpeg or other transcoders to generate our video for us. We take the document the user created and display that in the same way to the viewer (no converting step in between). This means we can stay lightweight and let you update the video whenever you like. There are no “snapshots” stored and the link always shows the source of truth. The challenge with this is keeping all the content in sync. Using our earlier example: the first recording should play after the text and then the second recording exactly after the first ends. A more complex scenario would be where two videos need to play back at the same time: a screen recording and a camera recording—these need to start and stop at the same moments. This is called “Media Synchronization”, or MediaSync for short ( https://www.springer.com/gp/book/9783319658391 ). At the moment browsers don’t have a lot of stable APIs that can help us, but they are in the works! One notable example is the Timing Object ( https://webtiming.github.io/timingobject/ ) which outlines how you can sync multiple media elements to the same clock. Right now Tella mostly works by manually syncing all video elements on actions like “play” or “seek”. Eventually we want to implement more of the techniques outlined in MediaSync, like slightly changing the speed of out of sync videos to let them catch up. So far, people have been using Tella to create product demos, team updates, company announcements, sales pitches, investor pitches, and tutorial videos, as well as making video content for blogs and newsletters. We'd love to hear what you think and answer any questions you might have. Thanks! August 14, 2020 at 07:40AM

Show HN: Scraping 2.5 million songs metadata from Jango Radio https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24139276
Show HN: Scraping 2.5 million songs metadata from Jango Radio Jango. It's a music streaming service. No it's not Spotify. Yes I know you've never heard of Jango. So I spent the past few months scraping metadata for every song on Jango Radio and put it in a database and made it searchable. I built a search tool which includes the kind of features that only a nerd would want like search by ID and search by URL. https://jango-index.ml/ I used Bash and Btrfs for the backend scraper. I used PHP and SQLite for the frontend search. https://jango-index.ml/src/ I'm not interested in monetizing what I did. I wouldn't be interested in a marketing campaign to raise the notoriety of Jango Radio to the point that you would notice it exists either. I'm aware that my project looks like crap to web design obsessed marketing posers who pretend to code. I happen to enjoy coding and I did a coding project. I know coding is an intrinsically valueless endeavor. I did it anyway. August 12, 2020 at 07:10PM

Show HN: dstack – an open-source tool to build data applications easily https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24131723
Show HN: dstack – an open-source tool to build data applications easily Dear HN, I am Riwaj, the cofounder of dstack.ai (https://github.com/dstackai). A few months ago, we built an online service that allows users to publish data visualizations from Python or R. The idea was to build a tool that did not require additional programming or front-end development for publishing data visualizations. Such a code can be invoked from either Jupyter notebook, RMarkdown, Python, or R scripts. Once the data is pushed, it can be accessed via a browser. Open-sourcing dstack: During our customer discovery phase, we realized that dstack.ai should integrate a lot more open source data science frameworks than we integrated ourselves. For example, as a user, I want to push a matplotlib plot, a Tensorflow model, a plotly chart, a pandas dataframe, and I expect the presentation layer to fully-support it. Supporting all types of artifacts and providing all the tools to work with them solely seems to be a very challenging task. With this, we open-sourced the framework. Now you can build dstack locally, and run it on your servers, or in a cloud of your choice if that’s needed. More details on the project, how to use it, and the source code of the server can be found at the https://github.com/dstackai/dstack repo. The client packages for Python and R are available at the https://github.com/dstackai/dstack-py and https://github.com/dstackai/dstack-r correspondingly. What’s next: User callbacks- so that application shows not just pre-calculated visualizations but also can fetch data from a store and process it in real-time. ML models- so that data scientists can publish a stack which binds together a pre-calculated ML model and user parameters Use cases- Support specific use cases that help data scientists to build data science models into data applications as fast as possible. We would be happy to get your feedback on the open-source framework and also get your opinion on what kind of use cases can be built on top of the framework? Thank you. August 12, 2020 at 06:14AM
Show HN: Orchest – Data Science Pipelines https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24131302
Show HN: Orchest – Data Science Pipelines Hello Hacker News! We are Rick & Yannick from Orchest (https://www.orchest.io - https://github.com/orchest/orchest). We're building a visual pipeline tool for data scientists. The tool can be considered to be high-code because you write your own Python/R notebooks and scripts, but we manage the underlying infrastructure to make it 'just work™'. You can think of it as a simplified version of Kubeflow. We created Orchest to free data scientists from the tedious engineering related tasks of their job. Similar to how companies like Netflix, Uber and Booking.com support their data scientists with internal tooling and frameworks to increase productivity. When we worked as data scientists ourselves we noticed how heavily we had to depend on our software engineering skills to perform all kinds of tasks. From configuring cloud instances for distributed training, to optimizing the networking and storage for processing large amounts of data. We believe data scientists should be able to focus on the data and the domain specific challenges. Today we are just at the very beginning of making better tooling available for data science and are launching our GitHub project that will give enhanced pipelining abilities to data scientists using the PyData/R stack, with deep integration of Jupyter Notebooks. Currently Orchest supports: 1) visually and interactively editing a pipeline that is represented using a simple JSON schema; 2) running remote container based kernels through the Jupyter Enterprise Gateway integration; 3) scheduling experiments by launching parameterized pipelines on top of our Celery task scheduler; 4) configuring local and remote data sources to separate code versioning from the data passing through your pipelines. We are here to learn and get feedback from the community. As youngsters we don't have all the answers and are always looking to improve. August 12, 2020 at 05:24AM
