A working implementation of text-to-3D DreamFusion, powered by Stable Diffusion
4 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 6 Oct 2022

Currently working with a student group to build out 3D word cloud generator (https://github.com/Cook4986/Longhand), and the prospect of arbitrary, hyper-specific mesh arrays on demand is thrilling.
Right now, we are relying on the Sketchfab API to populate our (Blender) scenes, which is an imperfect lens through which to visualize the sort of humanities-centric corpora our non-technical "clientele" are studying.
Since we are publishing these scenes via WebXR (Hubs), we have specific criteria related to poly counts (associated latency, bandwidth, etc) and usability. Regarding the latter concern, it's not clear that our end users will want to wait for compute.

Ask HN: Show me your half baked project
163 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 12 Oct 2023

Next Generation Shell. As a shell, it's a programming language and a UI. Half baked: programming language - pretty much done, we use it at work; UI - just starting to work on.

Any help would be appreciated of course :)
