Hey guys, I'm working on https://pages.any-stack.com/.

AnyStack Pages is aimed at making it easier and simpler to host static websites with free SSL protection and CDN. Websites can be hosted by uploading a zip file of the site contents or a single html file. It's currently in closed-beta for limited users every week.

Next Steps: Full launch with support for adding custom domains and premium features.

Happy to chat about this if you are interested in getting early access or for any questions and suggestions.

We are building a hybrid aircraft to connect cities with high speed door-to-door transportation, without train/airport infrastructure.

It’s a powered 55-seater auto gyro - an electric helicopter during take-off and landing and a conventional turboprop regional “plane” during flight. We are at a “works on paper, let’s start prototyping” phase: basic assumptions are verified by people from industry, a development plan is in place.

My co-founder is an experienced high-power electric propulsion engineer and he’s currently developing our power train. I am in charge of the business/operations/relationships side. We are currently looking for a third co-founder to lead aircraft design.

I made this bookmarklet, which will speak highlighted text in the browser regardless of platform. It also makes the initial letters of each word bold. This is the code: javascript:void function(){ javascript:(function(){ var selection = window.getSelection().toString(); if (!selection) { alert("Please select some text on the page."); return; } var encodedSelection = document.createElement("div"); encodedSelection.tex…

How do I get it to stop narrating? It's going on and on

We are working on https://aide.dev/ an editor forked from VSCode which allows you to utilize LLMs to speed up coding.

Our approach is a bit different since unlike making a better copilot or a chat experience we are building workflows which encourage engineers to work alongside AI and not just offload tasks to AI.

I recently created a custom 220gsm pre-washed cotton fabric by twisting thrice a 60s yarn (60/3 Ne) into 20s before knitting. It could never be commercially viable so released something similar. Essentially combining the softness of fine count cotton with the weight and durability of a heavier garment. https://www.marchtee.com/ Also a lot of ERP, warehouse, UI work and fun with Cursor.

I think I've seen march tee on instagram!

A drag and drop hosting solution for .NET projects - Like tiiny.host but for .NET.

Should be ready for early adoption in a month or so.

It was one of those shower thoughts along the lines of "I wonder if it's possible to drag and drop host .net projects..." :)
