hey HN,<p>I am re launching an HN client app that i built this year. It got very little traction when i launched earlier. Following YC advice to do multiple launches, I am going to give it another shot.<p>Itβs fairly basic, but here are some of the features that I hope you would like.<p>- Minimal, ...
Show HN: Goodreads Analyzer β AI roast and book recs from your reading history
(goodreads-analyst.vercel.app)
Inspired by the HN Wrapped Roast (<a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46336104">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46336104</a>), I built a web app that analyzes your Goodreads library and generates a literary roast, personality profile, and book recommendat...
Hi HN,<p>Iβm an indie developer and I built an app called *ιι
(JingYue)* because I wanted a calmer reading experience before bed.<p>Most reading tools push feeds, recommendations, endless scrolls and notifications. I wanted something that felt closer to flipping through a book β quiet, simple, and r...
I hacked this together last night after trying a number of time-tracking/Pomodoro apps and realizing I disliked all of them and could just make one that fits my style. The goals for the tool are: _simplicity_, a _command-line interface_, and an optional plaint-text logging format that lends itself s...
So I've been working on a Lobsters iPhone app over the past day or so and I think I'm going to turn it into a full blown app. I've been working with jcs to get a basic JSON API going that I can build this on top of and we've already got a basic version working that lets you browse links on the front...
Check out my side project [https://domainregret.com/]. This is a marketplace for when you have domains you've been sitting on for a while that totally sounded like a good idea at 2am and you were a tad bit drunk but now you're not so certain. I'm trying to work out the kinks and get some feedback!
I was [asked to link](https://lobste.rs/s/pu55v6/ask_lobsters_what_are_you_working_on/comments/s4457f) when I finished my book project; printing took a couple weeks longer than expected. I'll write up a more technical blog post and leave a link as a comment here in a few days, but the high-level ver...
After seeing the sublime plugin (https://github.com/jisaacks/GitGutter) and getting a little jealous I decided to write my own version for vim. Still in beta status, and sadly not async - but that's on the roadmap to being fixed.
Worked on this at $dayjob, and we open sourced it yesterday.
Initial driving requirements were:
* Use as part of proof-of-concept testing with a 3rd party memcache proxy that speaks only the binary protocol
* Work well with darner/kestral queues and nosql datastores (via proxies like couchbas...
So, I made this. It's a readable feed reader that promotes interesting content based on articles you vote for.
This is not a finished product, I'm trying this "release early" thing hoping to get some opinions. The timing seems right with Google Reader disappearing.
Readable.cc is open-source (...
Still very alpha... developed during a Startup Weekend event.
Show Lobsters: Compare book prices between different Amazons (and the Book Depository)
(piranhas.co)
I built this in order to satisfy a personal need, i.e. to find the cheapest place where to buy books from.
There are quite a few competitors out there already, but none of them quite lived up to what I wanted.
I wrote this to solve an internal need at our company and decided to open source it. Hope you like it!
I got really tired of Jenkins UI so I made some improvements. Hope you like this!
This is useful for me - hope it's also useful for you, and I hope to add to it soon.
Show Lobsters: ExtensionWatch, a browser extension to watch for and disable malware/adware extension
(github.com)
I hope you don't mind the cross-post from HN, but it was suggested I share this here (and yay I finally got an invite over here ;)). So, I spent the weekend hacking out a Chrome extension (which will live at https://github.com/extensionwatch/chrome later tonight) that will hopefully help reduce the...
Show Lobsters: WeDomainSearch - Collaborative domain search, like Etherpad for Domains
(wedomainsearch.com)
Hi Lobsters, I built a tool to help you find a domain for your next project.
When I search for a domain, I end up sharing my top picks with a couple of friends, then they start searching too, and they share back, and I end up with this log full of domain candidates that I end up parsing through a...
