Mind mapping: https://www.mapsofmind.com More of a scratching my own itch kind of thing. Has over 30k registered users but I don't even get enough to pay for my server! LOL.. So meh.. doesn't matter...
how the hell would 30k users not be enough to pay for servers? if everyone just pays $0.50 a month you got $15k. Congrats!

I built it because I wanted it to exist, and it's been fun to build. There's a small group of regular users, and I use it regularly myself. There's no monetization, though I have some thoughts about how that could happen in the future.

It was!!! Personally, I have no aversion towards GMO. But in the end, it's the customers. It's already so hard to convince that food grown in clean and sterilized nutrient medium is far better than the romantic soil everyone is clinging to; GMO would take way more convincing. However, there are tastes that are indeed only found in the 'old' seeds, so there is do see the aversion non-GMO from customer side. In terms o…

You actually think that putting some vitamins, minerals etc.. in your hydropnic system is enough to immitate the insanely complex environement of real soil?

Ah yes, the Dutch and Belgian tomatoes: they're atrocious. I'm from Eastern Europe, and our local variety of tomatoes is way tastier. Or any other variety for that matter.
I agree about the taste, but I don't think it's caused by variety taste difference. Problem is that when tomatoes are imported from further away, they are picked and transported (more) unripe and later exposed to ethylene gas to ripen closer to consumer. Being grown using hydroponics or bags of mineral wool certainly doesn't help with the taste either.

For me it’s the Zettelkasten/smart notes app I’m working on. I’ve been a frustrated with how I take notes from books, videos, blog posts, etc. I want to build a zero-inbox style workflow around organising my notes consistently so that I can start to blog with a wealth of research and ideas at my fingertips. So I’ve started building Flowtelic. Early (no signup/in browser storage) version is live at https://app.flowtel…
Oh man, I really want this. Are you collecting email addresses anywhere for when you’re ready for users?
A native GUI library https://github.com/yue/yue . It was a disaster when I announced it on Hacker News, and I got numerous harassments from strangers. But anyway 3 years since then and I'm still working on it. Edit 1: 2 => 3 years Edit 2: If anyone is interested, I wrote a blog on the mistakes I made http://cheng.guru/blog/2018/02/18/lessons-learnt-from-open-s... .
