DISCLAIMER: I work on the SIG Connect app.

SIG Connect does exactly that: https://www.sigsauer.com/sigconnect

I suspect, since this is HN, you're looking for something more open and hackable. But you might want to check out SIG Connect if you just want something that works out of the box.

Sorry I can't get into "how it works". Feel free to DM me for any questions.


I've been trying to use the latest versions of LLMs to analyze a target for scoring, but it's completely outside their current capabilities and hasn't worked. Additionally, the app doesn't seem to be available in Germany.

How can I get in touch with you?


Just added my email to my profile. Feel free to shoot me an email!


Most other places are closed. Chinese restaurants are typically open on Christmas!


How about humanitarian toolbox? https://www.htbox.org/


What about… GitHub, Gitlab, Gitkraken, GirButler (featured on HN recently)? The list goes on forever!


Supposedly they got written permission


Gitea?


supposedly the same


With Docker compose, there is a more idiomatic way to achieve this with zero dependencies using healthchecks[0]. Works well!

I used wait_for_it.sh for the purpose described in the OP until I found healtchecks could be used instead.

Healthchecks are a great way to achieve this.

As this repository mentions, this is the example using PostgreSQL.

depends_on: postgres-database: condition: service_healthy

healthcheck: test: ["CMD-SHELL", "pg_isready"] interval: 10s timeout: 5s retries: 5

However, PostgreSQL has already a command for this called pg_isready.

How is this going to work for other cases such as MySQL?


> How is this going to work for other cases such as MySQL?

You could do a query like SHOW DATABASES as a healthcheck for mysql.


Interesting. And it works for external HTTP services as well, I presume, right?


A shell command, so curl would work


One thing I see missing from some other replies to your comment is a discussion of determinism. That is given the same input, always produce the same output.

Determinism is often valued in safety critical systems. The system can't work _sometimes_. The system can't even work correctly _eventually_. It must produce the desired result in the time allotted. Actuating the thing 20ms too late could be as bad doing it incorrectly depending on the application.

I'm no ML expert, but that seems to be a problem for those types of solutions in some spaces.


We’ve had some success with similar methods. In addition to the simplicity(it just “plugs into” the existing board), it’s nice to get metrics on the bottlenecks happening on the product side of things. If we can show that it historically takes 2 weeks to refine requirements, we can tighten up our estimates and shine a light on potential problems occurring there. If you only have metrics on the dev work, the more business-minded folks tend to focus improvements only on what they can measure.

I’ve also found that folding product workflows into the Kanban board gives the team more visibility and ownership over that end of the pipeline. We can observe how those items age before it ever gets to the dev team and swarm to fix things as a team earlier in the process.


I likeJitBit! Used it for a few years at my last role. https://www.jitbit.com/


Looks very nice! Might give it a try.


This is amazing!

I would love to have an AWS expert handy at all times, so I tried to upload all AWS documentation using this: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sitemap_index.xml. I can no longer use the site, so I suspect that busted something.

In hindsight, that was not cool and I'm sorry about it.


Most AWS documentation is on GitHub: https://github.com/awsdocs/


Heh. Looking into this and will try to fix. I'll comment here again when I can get this working!
