I have a beta up and would love any feedback: https://diskatlas.com/
It's my first small software business idea that I'm seriously pursuing. My goal with it is to earn enough passive income that I can return to work on more ambitious exploratory projects, e.g.: http://symbolflux.com/projects/avd
Kind of a “your own monopolized subreddit”, or a “personal hacker news”.
It constantly monitors:
- State-level travel restrictions for 65 countries
- Airbnb and hotel prices and availability
- Flight prices and availability
- Cross-border driving restrictions for road trips
You don't need to open 20 tabs to check that your flights match the hotel options, and then check that you can navigate each country's new travel requirements. We'll alert you when the whole trip is available.
We're calling it Airheart (https://airheart.com)
* (Yet another) password and secret manager, using modern cryptographic libraries (age) and with a strong emphasis on customizability[1]. I personally use it as a general purpose secret store for everything from passwords to command snippets.
* A tool that runs commands when USB devices are inserted or removed, allowing a user to write filters against a variety of device metadata. The end goal is something similar to udev rules, but much nicer to configure and cross-platform. Still unreleased.
A browser extension called Curb Your Consumerism that detects when you are on a checkout page and shows you how long it took you to earn enough money to complete that purchase. 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 w…
For example I'd go super cheap on wired earbuds but premium on a set of knives. Or super cheap on knives but premium on an electric knife sharpener
A knowledge managment software, much better than Jira, Notion and alike. As being a knowledge base will be the only goal! Let me know if you want to be notified when released
Also, I am going to retire in a couple months, too bad.
There's a library available at https://github.com/uber/h3 that lets you partition the earth into hexagons (minus the required 12 pentagons) at various resolutions. It's spiffy. I had the hardest (read impossible) time when I first took a look at it getting it to compile into a mobile game. It worked fine in desktop, but not on mobile.
So I punted and converted the whole thing into C#. It's a hot mess currently, but it works.
However, the folks who created H3 added functionality and some optimizations that I want, so I'm rebuilding it, partly with dealing with some of the issues that have come up with my game during development. It's coming along smoothly, though the unit tests are what's slowing me down at this moment.
Once that's done, I'm going back to my game. Covering the world in brightly colored hexagons as reality starts to crumble around you.
So, still... Hexagons. That's what I'm working on.
I'm working on a browser extension that helps me discover new stock to trade when I browse the web. Say I like to shop on lululemon.com. I may not know that it's a public company, or that I can easily buy its stock even though it's a Canadian company. My browser extensions tells me that I can trade LULU, and other fun facts about the stock.
How do you discover new stocks to trade? I'll trade my free extension for your feedback :)

Procrastination made me waste years. My last chance I guess. Then I'll retake all my old projects.
