It's called foreplay. Jk. I've seen a glass shower where the glass turned to smoked opaque glass with the push of a button. Maybe this shower had something similar? But this is no …

If you want to make a kids app... Forcing the child to do a number of math problems to continue using the tablet would be an amazing app that I would definitely pay for. My daughte…

My current 'favorite idea I probably won't build' is an sms chat bot that does exactly this for guys in their 30s & 40s. The hard part is actually organizing the group of friends t…

Not a great joke. Instapaper was really the first one that was read it later. I thought they just it down, but I just switched to Android and Instapaper is (maybe was) only iPhone.…

I built a side project during COVID and after. I started recording videos explaining everything that's happening in the world for my kids to watch in 20 years. Then I wanted to cap…

I think a penny is about the right price. What are the other options and how are those working? 50 percent of email is spam and Gmail has had to create multiple invoices to segment…

How do you track and save these numbers? Manually or programmatically?

I think it's a little overstated to call tcr a cartel. Yes, it's a process, but it's gotten a lot better over the last 18 months. People have been complaining about spam text for a…

I think things could also 'creep' in the other direction where the group communication becomes overwhelming. The article mentions that someone actually sold an item through the Wha…

I'm sure it's on your list, but I think it would be helpful if I could click into the timeline in order to add an event/period of my life. I think there could be a really cool inte…

The first book I thought about from this prompt is The Fountainhead. It's fiction and was written in the 1940's, but is very relevant to modern times. Very well written and in my o…

Aren't they doing a 12 days of Christmas thing where they release new features for 12 days? This would fit into that idea. I was thinking earlier today that an agent listening to m…

You can feel ok about replying STOP to text messages from shortcodes. It's not impossible, but it would be an extremely bad process for an organization to have their OTP and their …
