Show HN: YapType: hassle-free yap-to-text for Linux

I found that having a quick way to locally transcribe what i am saying is helpful for my workflow, especially when vibe-coding or generally when chatting with AI models, as small transcription errors are mostly not a problem.

So I built YapType. It's just <200 lines of code total. On press of a shortcut, it transcribes locally and opens the result in your text editor - simple as that.

Ask HN: Is there still space for innovation in B2B?

As a B2B SaaS founder, I've been thinking recently whether there is still space for doing new, innovative things in this space.

Feels like for most things, there's already an existing solution, and all you can do is build something a bit better, but even the room for improvement on existing solutions seems small.

I mean, yes, I know that there are still some business sectors that rely on old crap corporate technology with more potential for improvement, but those sectors seem boring.

It feels like it resembles the late phase of the industrial revolution.

Show HN: ApplyFirst – AI job search alerts that get you more interviews

Data shows that early applicants get more interviews. ApplyFirst helps you reach new jobs before they get crowded with 100 plus applicants.

ApplyFirst is an AI job search system. It focuses on sending alerts as soon as matching jobs are published. Users get instant LinkedIn alerts based on their specific needs. These include tech stack, salary, travel, and other requirements.

Users receive only relevant roles filtered by AI models. We extract key job keywords to help improve your resume and cover letter. Automate your job search and stay ahead of the competition. ___

Now let me tell you about the background of the product. I'm Misha, the developer of ApplyFirst. Earlier this year, I found myself navigating one of the most competitive job markets I had ever seen. Many roles already had over 100 applicants within hours of being posted. Despite being highly motivated and consistently applying, I often received rejections or no response at all.

While digging into recruiter insights, one key pattern stood out: timing matters immensely. Early applicants have a significant advantage. So I decided to put this insight to the test and built a small program that monitors job boards and surfaces new jobs within minutes of being published.

The results were immediate. I started receiving far more responses and landed a great new role in less than a month.

When friends began using the tool and saw the same success, I knew this could help many more people. After several months of refining and expanding it, ApplyFirst was born to give others the same competitive edge.

I hope it helps you too, adventurer.
