#763Session focuses on these points: - beautiful design. - analytics: what you worked on and for how long. - introspective: after each session, it'll ask you whether you got distracted. If so, why? - meditative: breathing in and out once at every session.
I have bought the domain; but not yet designed the websire so progresses could be seen on https://www.twitter.com/philipyoungg

#765The idea is that restaurants offer reservation time slots, reserved parking spots, a menu item named after you, or really anything they want in exchange for money from diners. Ultimately, it provides another source of revenue for restaurants during these tough times.

#767I've got a very naive global market running with some incredibly dumb bots, and am currently implementing local markets with their own needs/wants.
It's multiplayer by design so hopefully at some point I'll have some nascent player-base competing with each other =)...
I'm trying to keep everything simple and scope small.
To be honest, I wasn't really expecting anyone to ever be interested in my toy project, beyond spending a half hour idling their time, but a friend of mine has already started kicking the tyres which is very exciting, he's written a bot that scrapes the site and trades against it which I find hilarious.
There's far too much I could write here about ideas, but I'm just trying to keep my mouth shut and make it ;)...

#769It's a video editor with some really cool effects/transitions. In quarantine, I've been re-vamping the UI to make incredibly easy to create videos.
I hope to have another version in about 1 week where creating videos will feel quite seamless ;)
(Adding media into your video project has been hard - which is what I'm fixing right now.)

#770Hypothesis: As many of us work from home, there are several different things we all do. Be it cooking, hobbies, writing etc. WFH Cave is a place to share your projects and help inspire each other. I currently have around 30 users, mostly friends and family.
Feedback that would help - what is that would stick here. Currently it feels like a normal photo sharing site. Any ideas would be much appreciated.
