Description

Show HN: A free curl API for IP data (we scan the IPv4 space in <24h) The curl API for WorldIP is now live and completely free to use. You can hit it right from your terminal:

curl worldip.io — returns information about your requesting IP. curl worldip.io/8.8.8.8 — returns details on any specific IP.

The main differentiator here is that we aren't just wrapping another provider's API and reselling their data. We built and run our own global infrastructure capable of scanning the entire IPv4 space in about a day.

Happy to answer any questions about the scanning infrastructure or the stack!

Show HN: Parse a PDF from your terminal with PaddleOCR-VL-1.6 I built OpenParser because I wanted PaddleOCR-VL-1.6 behind an endpoint I could actually use. Now there are open-sourced CLI and TypeScript&#x2F;Python SDKs:<p>``` npm install -g @openparser&#x2F;cli openparser auth login openparser parse sync document.pdf ```<p>That is basically it. It doesnt get easier and cheaper that this. Give it a PDF and get back the text and document structure.<p>Repo: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;eigenpal&#x2F;openparser" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;eigenpal&#x2F;openparser</a><p>I would love feedback from anyone willing to try the CLI and tell me what is still annoying.
