A privacy-first personal finance stack, with free and SaaS versions, with "power user" developer-friendly data analysis. No ads, no data sale, E2E encryption, localhost option, basic budgetting and transaction parsing, but for power users allows spinning up a jupyter notebook to play with your financial data.

Is there anything published as of now ? Even if bot ready ?

I'd be really interested in something like this.

Scratching an itch with a personal project: https://hnr.app/ "HN Reader"

It's supposed to be the API layer for a Mac app while I learn Swift, but I got carried away with the web view I was using to debug and ended up with a usable HN homepage heavily inspired by hckrnews.com

Including the plugin capabilities?

What plugins would you want? My hope is to support most use cases for WP-plugins with built-in functionality.

I'm not sure, I write plugins when a customer needs it.

Stuff like custom forms, calculators, booking systems... For one customer I implemented a complete web hosting client control panel as a set of WP plugins.

There's certainly a smattering of machine learning algorithms involved in some of the software components, but I'm working on Zipline's next generation "platform 2" delivery drone. As an embedded engineer, something has gone horribly wrong if we're trying to solve problems with AI!

How realistic is it? Asking for a friend

Trying to keep it "realistic" in the sense of how the structures are set up (bank reporting regulations, offshore companies, shell companies etc) but I'm optimizing for fun. It's an isometric Transport Tycoon-styled game but instead of building physical infrastructure you create financial connections between nodes like drug op -> cash business -> bank -> offshore company -> real estate investment. This has been my de…

This is amazing! Is there a way to subscribe for updates on this?

We’re working on a privacy-focused iOS app that enables you to track anything. It’s called Reflect. The app enables you to answer questions like “how does meditation affect my mood” or “how does this new supplement intervention affect my sleep”. We already support detailed visualization and correlation between all of the metrics you track and are working on some very exciting features to make self-guided discovery ev…

I’m having trouble understanding how to use the app! I am overwhelmed by the amount of configuration, and not sure how I am supposed to actually add activities or diary entries, for example.

An aesthetically unpleasing MVP will be available soon, we believe. Will be enough to exercise the "power user" use cases.

Custom forms with support for triggering actions is definitely on the roadmap. I'm not sure where I stand on the possibility to add a fully fledged plugin system. I've been looking at the possible scripting environments that are easy to integrate/execute in Go, there's a few JS-interpreters for example. But it would be quite a task to make the UX good in the case of runtime errors etc.

It was a while since I had a look on how the plugin system works in Wordpress. I should read up on that. Thanks for the feedback!

Still working on my bootstrapped job board SaaS, Niceboard ( https://niceboard.co ) which I launched about 4 years ago now! Makes launching a job board for your community/association/company super easy, with just a few clicks and Been thinking about adding AI-related features but there isn't that much AI that would really make the product better.

It's not a commercial product but I've spent some time building a Magic The Gathering deck builder[0]. I want to build a VTT engine but I feel like if I'm gonna receive a cease and desist letter from Hasbro that'll be the thing that triggers it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ it was mostly a 2 week project to learn Go and HTMX anyways....
