#4321. http://index.psybernetics.org A news archival service.
Built on a Golang implementation of another project. Intending to open source the backend once it's mature. It's been running in production for around a year but the underlying httpd now either needs vendoring or the code sat on top of it needs updating.
2. https://github.com/lukeb42/emissary The first news archival service I wrote. Went through a couple of iterations. Not too happy with the multi-process model under the hood though.
3. http://github.com/lukeb42/psyrcd This has been running in production for a couple of years. The scripting system was recently overhauled and we're using it instead of Consul or NATS for message bussing and service discovery at work (I technically get paid to make sure this is production-quality but it's not consuming time at the moment). It'd be nice to use the plugin system to implement a MUD as a channel mode that generated the world via numpy-based LSTM network.
4. https://github.com/psybernetics/synchrony A peer-to-peer caching proxy. Currently working towards a C implementation of this before dedicating time to the other projects in this post.

#433My web adaptation of the social deduction board game Secret Hitler: https://secrethitler.io Pretty fun, don't get to do much back end stuff so its a learning process. Its creative commons so can't make $ off it but the $10/month digital ocean box is doing fine. About 100 players on at peak and always games going.
Looks pretty cool, but is it possible to mute spammers? http://i.imgur.com/vwLkukw.png

#434Morse code player: https://epxx.co/morse Koch method to learn Morse: https://epxx.co/morse/koch.html
nice. I tried to use another (pay) site's koch method, but the website worked terribly. The "tech support" was awful, so I abandoned the effort.

#435Making vue components: https://github.com/euvl/vue-js-modal https://github.com/euvl/vue-js-toggle-button https://github.com/euvl/vue-notification
Nice. We looked at vue-notification for Timestrap[0] and will probably use it whenever we get development rebooted. [0] https://github.com/overshard/timestrap
Wow, great! Let me know if you will need anything, I'll be happy to help you out! :)

#436Making vue components: https://github.com/euvl/vue-js-modal https://github.com/euvl/vue-js-toggle-button https://github.com/euvl/vue-notification
I'm just getting started with Vue 2, these look great and I'll definitely be downloading to experiment with.
Awesome! Feel free to ask questions in issue tracker if you'll get stuck :)

#437Late to the game again =/ I'm working on https://theymadethat.com It's an IMDB for everything, not just movies. It does show you who built what but it does more: theymadethat can show you what they used to build it, what those things are made of (parts, ...), their evolutionary history, who they worked with, and so on I can't say that I'm building it out of sheer joy; it's more out of obligation. There are so many pe…
One of the coolest things I've seen in a while. Wonderful!

#438I'm at a point where money doesn't matter to me anymore except in the sense of retirement. I'm not rich by any means, I'd just rather live a life working on the most important problems in life, which these days I believe are mostly political/economic. http://www.endwageslavery.org/
Keep it going - this is important work.
p.s. South Korea does not sound like a nice place!!!

#439https://summerplaybook.com :)
Essentially a map of where college students are over the summer, run by me and my friend. I work on it because I really love working with my friend, love that it connects people, use it myself, and enjoy programming in itself.

#440NextTrain: https://www.nextrain.co.za We have a fledgling train system in the Gauteng area of South Africa (this area includes Johannesburg and Pretoria). However, the only way to see train schedules is via a PDF (2MB) buried deep on their website. This was a quick weekend hack to show when the next train is for each of the stations, and some additional info.
Is this for the GauTrain? or normal MetroRail service?
