Ask HN: Show me your half baked project

A spreadsheet-based approach to food I've been using with my partner for years, turned into an app. Track only calories & protein, look at weeks instead of days, eat healthy/don't eat CRAP (calorie-rich and processed foods).

Current E2E verifiable e-voting systems are complex to deploy and often require a trusted setup phase if fancy zero-knowledge proofs are used. All require coordination of threshold decryption ceremony. Moreover, maintaining bulletin board immutability is considered an easy problem; just replicate it. This necessitates that the e-voting systems are deployed with multiple independent parties that don’t collude, significantly adding to the deployment costs. Deployment can be delegated to a third party, but the tendency to optimise costs would sacrifice “independence” for the parties, which ensures the voter’s anonymity.

Some while ago, I got attached to the idea of anonymising voters’ pseudonyms instead of the votes with which they cast their votes pseudonymously. The anonymisation of the pseudonyms can be done verifiably on untrusted third parties transactionally - meaning when the resulting anonymisation is computed, returned and verified, there are no lingering trust assumptions. Another essential ingredient is a History enabled bulletin board, which provides efficient inclusion and consistency proofs. This enables voter’s client applications to ask bulletin board consistency proofs, ensuring their and others’ vote inclusion in the final tally. The result is a fully centralised e-voting system, PeaceFounder, which a single person can deploy without concerns about integrity or privacy.

Of particular note - a janky filtering system for each label!

Also - no english, yet!

Other quirks: - Individual labels are not linkable, if you want to share one, the link won’t work! - No proper mobile support.

Honestly, this project was a learning experience in React for me, and the code is a mess. No back end, just JSONs and sheets behind it all.
