After dropping the keyboard for the TV one too many times, the touchpad stopped working. I looked for a decent remote keyboard app to use on the tablet, and found nothing I liked. I ended up asking an AI to make something that served a webpage that connected back to itself via websockets. It provided a keyboard and touchpad on the webpage and forwarded events to uinput. It works well enough on tablet and phone that I…
Instant windows switcher with custom shortcuts and instant "opt+tab" and trackpad switching. Simple does exactly what I need it to do (just bypasses the slow window switching that is annoying), with no additional features or bloat.
I've also done a TUI that combines my messages from WhatsApp + messenger + discord which is pretty handy at work.
Gemini has been indispensable for helping me move from Windows to Linux. I'm reasonably proficient, but moving to a brand-new OS brought so many random questions and weird edge cases that I never would have had the confidence, patience, or time to tackle it alone, even with pretty strong Google fu. It's been so nice to have instant access to answers for my specific problems, without judgment or having to wait on a re…
I can't help thinking that this is a combination of Google sucking more and more and various problems of daily getting so hard need something like a script to solve them. (Recent challenge - "what affordable campgrounds are near the Pacific Create trail and open now").
A Linux dockbar with tons of applets and support for x11 and Wayland. Works on Gnome and KDE. I always wanted to write one as I have been involved with several open source ones, but it is a lot of time to go from scratch. I use it everyday, and I am enjoying it so much!
Allows me to efficiently work on multiple tasks in multiple repositories concurrently.

Wait. You worked on Guild Wars, Starcraft, Warcraft, and Diablo? This place is incredible.
Guild Wars was one of the most fun games ever. The crazy combinations of skills you could try in the random arena were so much fun. Guild Wars 2 and most other games are pure slop.
Also Guild Wars 1 has been receiving new content updates this year.
Many, really, but there are few I'm especially proud of: - https://github.com/exlee/pikchr_pl - DiagramIDE (diagram amiga-style workbench where you can script Pikchr diagrams using TCL, Prolog, Pikchr or - recently mruby). Note: you need to navigate to actual crate for description. There are binaries built in case someone wants to try it. - https://svg.axk.sh - semi manual SVG fitter so that I can easier vectorize AI…
These are really cool - I've been meaning to return to my pikchr-in-wasm IDE experiment. I only ever built a PoC, and that was before AI coding. I should pick it back up and polish it a bit, but after seeing your DiagramIDE, I might just use that. This whole thread is turning HN into my favorite app store. Good stuff.
