One big change I had when learning Japanese was that someone introduced to me Cure Dolly videos on YouTube, and it has been an eye-opener: All these verb conjugations are actually …

Congrats on the 1.0 milestone! I had a Show HN that built with Instant: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44247029 The common request from that thread was to add guest auth, and…

I used to save Timeanddate's calendar as HTML and adjust them so they fit A4 paper perfectly (also like to remove their logo oops), but have moved on to generating my own: https://…

My gripe is with multi-layer approvals for permission request tickets. If it's only 1 layer, the only layer will make sure the person it's correct. However once there are >1 layer,…

I switched to KISS Launcher several years back and had been loving it. I like the philosophy of search-based launcher. This way, if I don't actively search for an app, I won't be d…

Today I learned about the difference betweeen "preconnect" and "dns-prefetch": https://web.dev/articles/preconnect-and-dns-prefetch I have thought that they were the same...

I want to learn driving. I live in a city with well-connected public transport (Singapore) so I don't feel the need to learn. However, this year I travelled to some rural areas in …

I submitted my travel planning web application [1] few weeks ago as Show HN [2] and it received tons of feedback and ideas that resonates with me. So I'm still working on it :) [1]…

Thanks. Noticed this too after I added Sentry, should be fixed already :)

Interesting, thanks for sharing!

I feel like once I list down the places in the map, I sort of can grasp which places should go together or play around with the schedules to make things work. Yes it's more manual …

Thank you. This app is meant for me to replace my "Excel trip planning workflow" and I'm glad that you like it :)

The whole back-end is using InstantDB https://www.instantdb.com/ . I don't have export function yet

Thanks for the feedback. I agree that everyone have their own workflow and this might not suit your prefered workflow. Having a 'idea list' is requested several times and I have st…

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah I think over time I ended up making way too many of the fields being non-optional. I also agree that this is not for everyone, and lean towards my sty…

Thanks for the feedback and trying them out. Having a 'bucket list' of activities (without exact times) is definitely on my horizon to implement next. The 'region' to select is mai…

Yup, it's using CSS Grid and since I have to declare the grid templates upfront, and my granularity is at minute level, it means I have to declare each minute of the day, i.e. 24 *…

That's a very valid use case I haven't thought of. Thanks for pointing it out!

Hi swyx, great idea! Thanks for your tips

Yeah this is not that obvious, but the selected 'destination time zone' is the only time zone that one will be working with when planning the activities within the trip. (When inpu…

Thank you for trying them and providing such a detailed feedback! - On Trip Sharing, hmm that seems weird. While I understand that there's no 'loading' indicator yet, one should be…

Thank you! Probably you just need to copy `.env.example` into `.env` and replace the required API keys. [1] The whole 'back-end' is an external dependency hosted elsewhere by Insta…

Hmmm okay so I come from Excel world and when I arrange my plans in timetable view (in Excel), I need to 'merge' several cells together. However if circumstances change and I have …

Thank you for the ideas!

Thanks for the encouragement! Thank you too for the ideas to extend and enhance the current features :)
