#272We're working on Drawers ( https://drawers.computer ), a macOS app to give each of your projects its own dock, space, and windows. We integrate with macOS spaces to switch out a project-specific dock on each space, containing only the resources you need for that project. We made it possible to add granular resources instead of full apps to the dock (think specific slack channels instead of the whole slack app), to ke…
Any plans on open sourcing? This is really useful for me but I'm not comfortable giving full access to my mac

#273My partner & I have been making this wordle/wheel of fortune inspired daily - https://crosses.io
Each guess can be a single letter or a full word. Revealing letters helps you make word guesses, which are more efficient since it reveals all instances of those letters across the board.
It's been really gratifying seeing friends enjoy the game, now we're trying to figure out how to get in front of more players. Leave us some feedback if you stop by

#274I’m building a blackjack card counting tool for people to learn how to count and how to identify games that are winnable. It is designed to take a completely novice to an advanced, winning card counter, using a Duolingo like approach - mastery based learning across sequential modules. Minus the ads and dark patterns.

#275I’ve been building (launched in Feb) a home phone service for families who want to put off the smartphone for as long as possible, but still give young kids the ability to communicate via landline.

#276I track my learning and schedule repetitions in google sheets. But Google sheets sucks on the phone. So I built a dumb frontend reading off of my (public) google sheet which just has 4 columns for links, title, dates and wait times, plus a formula. Webapp pulls the sheet as csv, renders as color coded lists and a couple charts. Chart shows what's due this week on a 15 week timeline. This is the simplest luddite version I could come up with. I don't have a way to share this with others except sharing the source. Not introducing complexity from auth, storage, managing updates from the app, etc.

#278I am building Akariq which provides data eSIM data plans to 185+ countries and regions across the world. I am 2-3x cheaper than big brands in the same space. I also prefer local data routing i.e. I don't route traffic from US or EU to Hong Kong, they stay in your country / region.

That sounds super cool! When you say Duolingo do you mean spaced repetition? If yes, have you identified what type of spaced repetition approach you will take?
