It's that time of the month again to share what HN'ers are working on! Have you taken on new side projects that you'd like to share with the community? How is your current side project going?

I'm currently re-designing one of my side projects - sideprojectors (http://sideprojectors.com) - yeah really. What can I say, I love side projects.

FYI, here's the previous month's https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9696274

I am working on a habit building app in Meteor. It's really an excuse to get my hands dirty with Meteor, which I am loving.

Found this the other day - might come in handy, if you haven't seen it already.

Working on something called Diamonds - a math worksheet generator for Teachers and Tutors. The google docs of math sheets, if you will.

Also just made off-the-rip, a command line & JS soundcloud audio downloader that embeds metadata like artist, title, and artwork. https://github.com/jakiestfu/off-the-rip

I'm working on a small visualization article about the different methods of generating normally-distributed random numbers, given only a stream of bytes. It's been somewhat hampered by the fact that one small aspect of the Box-Mueller Transform still eludes me. :)

I'm working on an app that enables people to send unlimited content over cellular, organized into stories. In the moment is when network and context is lost for created content. It's how we should preserve moments: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/keepsake-send-tons-photos/id...

I'm working on a mobile app built with the Ionic framework. It's called Tripfix (http://www.tripfixapp.com) and is a tool to help you plan things to see and visit on a trip away.

The Ionic framework is great, and I found it really easy to get going with. So far it also hasn't yet hampered me by being a hybrid framework, so it's been a lot of fun :) (http://ionicframework.com/)

I'm working on a browser based set of study design calculators (samples size and randomization lists). I'm using flask and scipy.

It is a lot of fun and keeps my theory sharp (I'm a statistician by trade).
