Launch HN: Danswer (YC W24) – Open-source AI search and chat over private data
We have a connector interface and build guide for contributors: https://github.com/danswer-ai/danswer/blob/main/backend/dans...
Should be not too bad to build one out! Fun fact, more than half the connectors were built entirely by community members who needed them for their own teams and we're super grateful when they contribute it back to the repo.

Show HN: DanswerBot – Open-source Slack bot to automate repetitive questions
Slack questions have always been a huge time sink for me. They’re a distraction that pulls me away from what I’m doing, and often requires digging up old knowledge. If I’m in the middle of something complex, I may take a while to context switch and get around to answering, which leaves the asker blocked for hours.
Addressing this seems simple: give an LLM your organizational context and plop it in Slack to answer things for you.
So that’s why we built DanswerBot! It’s MIT licensed (https://github.com/danswer-ai/danswer) and completely free to use. The bot can automatically sync with and back answers based on documents from Slack, Google Drive, GitHub, Confluence, Jira, Notion, local files, websites, and much more.
Quick demo vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5q35NeqsMnU
A quick note on hallucinations: in order to reduce their prevalence, all answers are backed by quotes. If the LLM-provided quotes don’t match any document or no quotes are given, we’ll warn the asker that something may have gone wrong. Additionally, all used documents are linked in case the asker wants to double check the answer. Answers can be thumbs-upped or thumbs-downed and all questions / answers are recorded in Postgres for easy future inspection / analysis.
For usability, we provide an admin dashboard where you can configure connectors (we have 14 currently). Once a connector is set up, we poll data sources every 10 minutes to keep answers up to date. Which LLM to use is also up to you - DanswerBot can be configured to use a locally hosted model, Azure OpenAI, or OpenAI directly.
Finally, if you aren’t a slack user (or if you just prefer a more tailored UI), there’s also a web interface to ask questions against your knowledge base. A short demo for that can be found at: https://youtu.be/cWWtnuVCUX0
Of course there’s a bunch more that I can’t cover in one post - happy to take questions in the comments (or in our Slack / Discord, which are linked on the Github repo).
If you’re interested in testing this out yourself, you can easily run everything locally with a single command. Docs to help you can be found at https://docs.danswer.dev/quickstart!

Linux virtual machines, with a focus on running containers
I'm surprised this says "with focus on running containers", I thought that would be colima, which uses Lima but is a separate project. https://github.com/abiosoft/colima
Lima is more of a nice way to run a Linux VM on Mac in a way that integrates the guest and the host systems to a good degree by default. It wraps either QEMU or Apple's VZ framework.
For a more traditional VM GUI, there's https://mac.getutm.app/ which is a completely separate project that also wraps QEMU or VZ.

How I ended up using Colima for Docker on Apple Silicon
While looking into the issue with Podman, I came across colima. Apart from being able to run AMD64 images out of the box, there were additional benefits to it, one of which was, unlike podman, colima could use Rosetta 2 for x64 emulation (which is significantly more performant).

Damn Small Linux 2024
You might look into CoLima as a way to get started.
https://github.com/abiosoft/colima?tab=readme-ov-file
Its user interface is Docker-like, using containers.
For full desktop, I've only used the commercial app "Parallels", which can set up an Ubuntu desktop for you. Also Fedora and Alpine and Debian I believe.
But
> I don't really have any resources to share. I just know how to boot a vmlinuz with an initramfs using QEMU, and decided to download the Linux kernel source code and try compiling it.
I highly recommend working through Linux from Scratch and possibly the Gentoo Handbook. It's a journey.

Howto: WASM runtimes in Docker / Colima
I could not find any guide how to add WASM container capability to Docker running on Colima. This guide provides a few Colima templates for exactly this, which adds WasmEdge, Wasmtime and Wasmer runtime types.

Podman Desktop v1.5 with Compose onboarding and enhanced Kubernetes pod data
After docker desktop became unusable, I jumped to colima and never looked back. I still use the docker runtime in it (the non-proprietary part) but it also supports containerd. On Mac it's just a "brew install colima" and then "colima start"
I also install the compose and ecr credentials plug-ins (since I use ecr for my container registry.) It has the full functionality of docker desktop minus the UI, which I never used anyways.
