Building a platform to transform your Google Drive into a customer facing or internal knowledge base.
This week we're working on creating dynamic customer portals from folders in Drive. From our previous experience we know a lot of customer success teams have a template folder of docs/slides/sheets, which they copy and share with customers. We want to automate this + create a slick, branded portal.
I'm also battling depression and tbh it's taking its toll quite efficiently. Last month was nice and I worked on the game nearly every day, this month I haven't touched it at all. :D I just sleep.
The idea is about increasing the mindfulness of your purchases and reducing unnecessary environmental waste driven by impulse buying.
Here's what I'm planning next:
- Detecting the checkouts and extracting the checkout total generally across websites still needs refinement.
- Storing the purchases/savings locally in the extension storage to show you a graph of spending and saving.
- Showing a CO2 savings estimate.

- A vertical BI tool for courts. Every court is its own animal and something as simple as closing a case can be stored and managed in different ways, and the complexity is so high that it's hard to visualize the data. This solves those problems in a clear, understandable way.
- A national hearing reminder service. Each year, millions of Americans fail to appear in court for low-level offenses and arrest warrants are issued. This paper was just released, showing text message reminders, in part, reduced NYC failure to appear by 13-21% and led to 30,000 fewer arrest warrants over a 3-year period: https://science.sciencemag.org/content/early/2020/10/07/scie... We're starting to roll this out at a national level with https://HearingReminder.com
More or less a modern replacement of Doxygen. The goal is to make writing good documentation easy. To accomplish that we've incorporated Markdown pages alongside the documentation, a modern and lightweight theme, Algolia-style search, minimal configuration, and simple deployment/CI integration.
Spent the second half of last year in alpha, putting the finishing touches on the release candidate now and hope to release this month.
I'm working on an app that turns brokerage accounts into a fully customizable robo-advisor. Create a target portfolio made up of stocks/ETFs, and our app will keep everything balanced and fully invested. We're starting with this simple use case of keeping a balanced portfolio, but really we see brokerage accounts as a financial operating system that's lacking good software. We're already on TD Ameritrade and Interact…
I'm a big fan of the dollar-cost averaging feature. And the fact that you offer an API.
An aggregator ala reddit/hackernews/twitter that uses a market mechanism to better incentivise content discovery. One of the biggest issues with existing aggregators is that: - how well content performs is dependant on the attention it gets immediately after posting. - However, readers aren’t incentivised to sift carefully through new content, which is generally of lower quality than "frontpage" content - This means…
On reddit, we created a bellwether award. It was basically for the person who was most accurate at upvoting things that got popular and downvoting the things that did not. The people who won the award the most were the ones that upvoted all the memes and blogspam. My point of this is not to discourage you, but to warn you that the way you've described your platform, the most "profitable" thing to do is not upvote goo…
I think the shorting will help with this, but I think the more critical thing is getting the initial community right to set expectations of what's upvoteworthy. Kind of how y'all started reddit around a programming community.
Making an open source CSS animation toolkit with my brother that is the first animation library to be composable and fully customizable instead of just a boring set of standard animations. Vue and React (coming soon!) plugins to make life even easier.
First time creating an open-source tool and docs, so we wanted to make it fun.
