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...

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!
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.
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 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.
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...
Lobsters is an interesting community, whose growth is regulated by a [publicly visible invite list](https://lobste.rs/u). I think this is a wonderful & wise feature, but it brings up the question of, "How to keep the community thriving with high quality new members?"
There are two ways to invite ...
I have heard a lot about people misusing REST, and I would rather do it properly than improperly when writing an API for myself, since it seems like I could learn something about good APIs, since the people who came up with REST thought so long about how they should work. What are the best resource...
I made this last year and never announced it on Hacker News, so I figured I'd post it here. You enter your domain names and it automatically tracks and updates their expiration dates on an iCal feed that you can subscribe to. It also handles SSL certificate expirations as well.
Show and tell time.
What projects are you working on for work or pleasure? Computer-related or not.
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...
I'm thinking of creating a simple android app based on something like [pwman](http://folk.uio.no/vegardno/pwman/) for personal password management. This way the application would always be available for offline usage wherever I go.
What do you think?
