#592On my country restrictions' monitoring tool https://geoblock.net
Turns out there are a lot of businesses that constantly get banned and they need a reliable source of notifications about that

#593A small Chrome extension: https://github.com/MoYuM/moyu-search
I like Arc Browser’s command panel and Chrome’s tab search, so I want to combine them and add some enhancements:
- Pinyin-based fuzzy search
- Search through history and bookmarks
- Custom keybindings
For now, I’m working on bringing !bang support to Moyu Search.

#594I'm still working on the Mint programming language ( https://mint-lang.com/ ) and DevBox ( https://www.dev-box.app/ ) which is a desktop application/browser extension/web application with a bunch of small tools.
I have been following Mint for a while and it feels like a project that truly focuses on making developers happy. The mix of Elm style structure, strong typing, and builtin tools like testing and formatting makes it really enjoyable to use. Keep up your great works!

If you're targeting the EU, you might want to look into PEPPOL.
Thank you, will look into this. I have plans adding e-invoice support - https://github.com/VladSez/easy-invoice-pdf/issues/121

Nice! I recently built an invoice generator (not open sourced) for my own needs. I built mine because I needed something when I discontinued a SaaS that had provided it. Mine is written in C# and uses a JSON file to define the contents of the invoice. It's run from the command-line and just produces the PDF.
Very cool :)

#597I already mentioned last month I was working on a appendix in Wiktionary for synonym of Esperanto terms constructed with the mal- prefix[1]. Actually it's a bit more generic as it also encompasses a few other antonymic prefixes, but mal- is the main tool in that category.
With more than 300 references and around 1500 entries, covering more than all the lemma given in the reference dictionary Plena Ilustrita Vortaro de Esperanto, I now consider it achieved. Well, apart some formatting of references where I still need to fix issues related to import of template/modules from an other wiki. :D
To give a perspective, in one of the Esperanto sentence collection referenced in the appendix, I found a bit more than 7000 terms mal- words, which once stripped of the most common inflection and affixes went down to 3000 entries. I didn't check in details this remaining set, but my guess is that the remaining difference was still mostly due to less frequent affix combinations that my naive filter didn't catch. For recall Esperanto is a highly agglutinative language and encourage the use of a regular affix set to express many derivative terms from a common stem, so empowering expressivity though combinatorial reuse. So only twice the size of the proposed entries in the appendix is a very low figure.
I initially had this project ideas years ago, and it came back to my mind as I started to contribute to the port of Raku into esperanto[3]. This came back as we were going through the considerations for the lsb routine, where LSB stands for Least Significant Bit. The common way to express least is malplej (countryman-of-most), which is generally ok but can be instead replaced by mej, for example if terseness is a highly weighted desired trait. That allows for example to use mejpezbit’ instead of some alternative synonym like malplej signifa duumaĵo.

#598Working away at https://TempMailDetector.com, a privacy focused disposable email detection API which only requires the domain part and not the user part of the email. The service is able to determine if a domain is likely a disposable email, a forwarding service, and actively crawls for new domains.

#599A static site generator for German laws. The goal is to serve the laws in a format that is easy to cite, monitor, or machine-read. It should also have predictable URLs that can be inferred from the law’s name. It will also have side by side AI translations (marked as such). I cite a lot of laws in my content and I want to automatically flag content for review when a specific paragraph of the law changes. I also want…
This sounds great, do you think something like this could be ported over to other countries' laws?
Where I'm from, citizens _need_ more awareness of their rights today and in the future.

#600I'm building FlightWise ( https://flightwise.io ), an all-in-one SaaS platform for flight school operations. After acquiring a flight school, I quickly realized how challenging the day-to-day operations were. To solve the problems of aircraft fleet management, scheduling, and student course progress tracking, I developed a comprehensive platform that handles all aspects of running a flight school. Existing software i…
Stunning website! How long have you been working on it?
Thank you! Started development around August 2024 and 2 months later we had it in use at our school in a very early state, and then over time added more huge features, such as bookings, etc. About 4 months ago, we fully moved away from the existing antiquated platform we were paying for, as FlightWise reached a complete feature set.
