I wrote (and maintain) my own rss reader for iOS - https://github.com/younata/RSSClient/ , here's a trimmed down version what I follow: News: - Electrek - https://electrek.co (Basi…

Been working on my own RSS reader for iOS. https://github.com/younata/RSSClient/ Pretty much all the internal logic (parsing feeds/opml files) are also written from scratch, which …

Oh. this is awesome. Very much so looking forward to integrating this into some of the home automation stuff I'm doing.

A very interesting paper [0]. I'm actually taking a similar approach (though, more generic in nature) for my CFD work (namely, using experimental data to help correct my numericall…

Man, screw using that for multitouch. Going to use it as a depth camera. Been looking for a kinect-like device that I can mount on a quadcopter.

I'd finally get my CFD stuff off the ground. I currently only spend about an hour a day working on it, and I'd like to just work full time (or more) on it.

I once wrote a very minimal IRC client by essentially wrapping telnet around expect. All it did was automate sending out PINGs, but it worked.

Come on, hat trick of rejections!

Front-end design. I can make a beautiful back-end, but what does it matter to anyone but fellow hackers if a front-end end-user thing doesn't look good, is useful to beginners, but…

assuming by "finding" you mean liking. The api makes it very easy to use. I would like to get a generic beacon I can just slap on my door and forget about for 6 months or so, rathe…

what do you mean? It's built in to corelocation in iOS 7... You can even use an iOS device as an iBeacon...

Been playing with iBeacons today: https://github.com/younata/Apartment Other than that, more work on my flight simulator: http://younata.com/

I have been building this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6618834 It's been fun. :D

too many.

Oh, man. My previous experience in building simulators is a spaceflight simulator I wrote at the beginning of the year, because space, life is easy and I didn't have to really writ…

Thank you for the interest! Right now, x-plane basically is the only player in the flight sim market (MS has officially stated they've left - though I doubt it's for good, FlightGe…

Holy shit, that is awesome! If only I had 55k to spend on that sort of thing, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

I have been building a (highly accurate) flight simulator. Basically, I'm taking a geometric approach to the flight dynamics model (similar to how x-plane works, except they're usi…
