I'm working on a tool called Canyon to help jobseekers land their dream job by helping them perfect their resume, be much faster at applying to jobs, and practicing with our mock interview tool.

#743I built an app to help in improving English vocabulary:
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/woor-vocabulary/id6740453162
Initially started as small webapp to help me learn Dutch words. Made it out of the frustration that in Duolingo I cannot specify the words I want to learn and Quizlet exercising and progression felt limited. I also wanted to target the specific meanings of the words.
Then I decided to try out CapacitorJS and wrapped it into the mobile app. For now only English is available as the target language as it was easier to validate the content, but more languages are coming.
Along with it also started the podcast with language tutors about the teaching & tech. Please find the links here: https://www.woor.app/tutorandtech

#744I'm working on a configuration file format. I see a lot of complexity in the current space, and not enough thought put into the use-cases for a configuration language.
YAML is prone to typos, TOML does not seem obvious to me, and JSON is not as easy to edit.
I've been designing CLEO:https://code.nicktrevino.com/cleo/
The focus is on a configuration language that a single application would use. Not a system-level configuration that might need control flow, etc.
It is at a solid state right now, though it's not officially released yet as I slowly validate it with usage.

#747Learning about Rama (https://redplanetlabs.com/) which has been released recently. The tech is very cool and also it's Clojure, but still not sure what would be the best use case for it.

#748I'm trying to make an edison battery (Nickel Iron). My first attempt failed due to expired silver epoxy... I'm now planning to try a nickel paint (meant for electron microscopy).

#749I have an idea that you can steal (would be cool if you send me some of the spoils if it moons lol). This might be right up your alley, Google and Apple devs. Generated voice profiles (you can use "AI" to sell it to your bosses) to narrate text messages in the sender's voice. Many texts are already sent by speech to text, why not carry that voice to the reciever? Simply recording is not ideal due to the background no…
I used to work for an assistive tech company that did part of this. For people who have degenerative diseases like ALS, we would create speech profiles for them before they lost their voice so that once they did, their computer-generated voice (through eye tracking software and hardware) would be their own and not a generic voice.
What company if you don't mind? Sounds like work I've been interested in. Thanks!

#750I'm building Recon Wave (https://reconwave.com) - we monitor companies online perimeter and let them know when something's wrong.
Recon Wave basically finds and scans all their services - DNS, IPs, Apps, Ports - and notify customers when it breaks some policy (aka. "no ports than 443 should be open") or when some service is straight vulnerable.
I'm former security engineer and I hated all that "critical reports" that reported missing CSP header.
We're now playing with an idea to build LLM pentesting agent that could run agains the whole infra of our customers.
