#22Everything should be on git.captnemo.in (on phone, can't give links) - Writing code to manage my home server using Docker, Terraform and some glue (nebula) - reviving the Hindustan Time hatetracker, which was a newspaper project tracking hate crimes, but was shut down after some government pressure. - zomato tracker that keeps track of restaurants that open or close in Bangalore every week. Plan is to make a twitter…

I am curious why this was shut down. If you need any volunteers, sign me up.
> zomato tracker
I was working on something similar to that for San Francisco using SF's OpenData APIs for new businesses :)

#23https://github.com/ioddly/meditations - Daily organizer based on habit formation. It actually needs a little bit of TLC which I'm hoping to give it once I finish up my current gig. I'm still the only user, as far as I know, but I use it daily so it's fun to work on.
I found a while back and gave it a whirl. I thought it was awesome. I am happy to see you have continued to put time into it. Thanks!
I'm trying to centralize the 2-3 todo/misc apps I use daily by using a bujo/bullet journal. The other day, I was telling my bujo using coworker that I was going to commit to using your app if I didn't dig the bujo.
Thanks again for making meditations. I think the UX flows well for habit tracking.

Already runs a lot of software including Wordstar, HiTech C compiler for Z80, Microsoft Basic etc.
Also have written a few applications for it including a telnet client with Zmodem support, some graphics utilities etc.

Please make a game with this. I would pay money for such a thing. There was a rather large hype over a game called 0x10c with mechanics like this that ended up being vaporware.

#26https://www.finbuckle.com/MultiTenant Multitenant support for ASP.NET Core 2.0. The previous popular solutions all went out of date with the release of .NET Core 2.0.
Which 'popular solutions' did you review? We used aspnetboilerplate.com for our multi tenancy SaaS app

Yes, that's actually where this all started. I had a parody of 0x10c in mind and I originally started posting about this on the 0x10c subreddit.
It's on the backburner at the moment due to work/personal commitments but I hope to get back to it before too long.

#28https://passed.pw/ - Mobile-friendly random password generator seeded based on your mouse or touch positions for better randomness.
Just wanted something simple to generate passwords/tokens and ended up building this two years ago.
https://tempd.link/ - Temporary file hosting with immediate automatic deletion when leaving the site.
This was just a weekend project to test out openresty and using redis as an in-memory storage location for uploaded data that will get destroyed without writing to disk. Would be very expensive to scale something like this though.

#29I had a second episode of extremely high blood pressure in 2017. It's a long story, but I ended up being hospitalized in a cardiac surveillance unit. A big part of my cardiac issue was that I had allowed my overall fitness to drop quite dramatically. So, I'm working on a fitness goal app. Essentially, I track my blood pressure/heart rate along with my diet, exercise, etc. And, I'm working on finding correlations, wit…
I recorded hundreds of runs with a garmin forerunner and HRM. Aside from occasionally plotting avg pace vs avg hr over time and saying, "oh that's nice", I didn't find much value in recording.
Focus on what you'll do with the data once you get it and work back from there.
Good luck with lowering your blood pressure the natural way. Stay away from blood pressure meds as long as you can.

#30If every programmer working on a side project were to collaborate on a single project together, just for a full day one weekend, I wonder what could be achieved..
If selection of the project were democratic, would you participate?
