Working on TruckPlease https://www.truckplease.com/ If you need to move something you can post it there and guys with trucks and moving companies around you will put down quotes for the job. Then you can accept/decline the quotes and get connected to the mover. It's a Rails app. The focus is on stuff within the same city (or county at least) so shorter local moves. It's mostly in Vancouver, BC right now although we g…

You've been making some ripples on reddit! Do you anticipate needing to hire additional staff anytime soon?

Yeah people seem to "like" the idea on there! We probably will not be hiring until we have streamlined our model a bit more and started earning revenue or raised another round of funding.

I've just launched an app for building D3.js charts online. Getting some interesting people sign. https://app.chartblocks.com/tryme

Very slick and easy UI. Good work.

Thanks, needs some improvement according to our metrics - a lot of people don't manage to make a chart, which is pretty fundamental - but it's getting better every day.

I'm working on an enterprise honeypot framework with an emphasis on internal honeypots that alerts a network administrator as soon as an attacker messes with it. An example would be a fake PHP myadmin page that alerts a security engineer as soon as it receives a POST request It's closed source but I've finished the architecture for the software and a couple of the services (MySQL, Web, FTP). They are really cool in m…

That does sound pretty interesting, though I'm not sure if the enterprise folk would pay for it. I know on my personal hosts I tend to grep the access logs for requests to /wp-admin, /phpmyadmin, and blacklist IPs that make request to them. I should probably just switch to using fail2ban to do the processing, but I like the notices posted to my internal xmpp server.

Hey I appreciate the response. I'm honestly not sure if they will buy it. If it's cheap enough and portable enough I feel it could be extremely effective in drawing attention from attackers.

If not I guess I'll just open source it and turn it into a con talk =).

I wanted to take node/redis for a spin and this was one of the more simple web apps I could think of. There isn't any data in the system right now so don't take the percentages too seriously.

I might add the ability for users to upload images so people could up make funny trios and share them, but since this was more of a learning experience I doubt I'll get that far before something else takes my interest.

I'm working on a platform that allows everyone create HTML5 and mobile games directly in the browser without any programming knowledge. Still in a very early stage. First MVP will come in a month.

I'm working on simplifying Erlang's syntax [1] (its a grammar and examples).

I have this Uni project that I was allowed to do in Erlang [2] (300LOC, readable, distributed text mining).

I'm also maintaining a somewhat famous unofficial doc of Erlang [3].

I haven't been a fan of most music blogs out there, so I started one alone with a different focus and combined my passion for music with coding to help us stand out. Now, my team has grown to 34 people and we're building our own platform to help people discover all kinds of music. http://radcircle.com New completely custom platform built from scratch in it's Alpha stages, using Ruby, Rails and possibly SailsJS.

Are you going to be adding more genres yourself? Or are you waiting for more people to submit songs?

I think it would be cool to have a search by band member so you could see what other bands someone has played in.

I do have to say, it looks pretty cool, but with a bit more features it could be a kick-ass site.

I'm working on a new python based system, consists of Flask and many helpful extension built-in by default.

it will be an easy starter template for any kind of project, and it will have a css on the front (Bootstrap or Purecss), User management (Registeration/Authentication),Asset management, Admin panel, caching, Redis, Task Queue, and two database stores (SQL and no-SQL), and a websocket push functionality.

I call it, the framework for the next decade :)
