Ask HN: What projects are you working on? - <AUTHOR> I've recently finished working on some clients projects and now I've got some time to work on my own projects. I'd like to know in which projects the hn people is working on for some inspiration. <comment><USER2> I'm connecting a Hedgehog to the Internet :) . I have a hedgehog that runs all night in a wheel. Counting the laps gives me the traveled distance, so every morning he'll tweet how much he ran. He runs up to 15 km./9 miles!

Check him out at [https://twitter.com/runhedgie](https://twitter.com/runhedgie)

This project is a combination of hardware and software. I'm using a Raspberry Pi, a custom-built wireless node based on Arduino, Python, Redis, and a Go API for data analysis. I wanted to build almost everything from scratch, to really see what's happening in every part of the system, so I've done from PCB design and soldering to struggling with Go HTTP routers (I gave up and used Gorilla).

But it's been fun watching the hedgehog interact with the real world.

<comment><USER3> Very cute hedgehog.

Any particular reason you're intermixing Go and Python? For something like this I imagine Python alone would be more than suitable. And if you just wanted to mess with Go and learn it, then you probably could've used Go for the whole thing.

<comment><USER2> Thanks! Good question.

I wanted two things from this project: get it up and running as quickly as possible and learn Go. That's why I programmed an MVP in Python while I finished the backend in Go. I figured that if I waited for the Go code to be finished I may have never shipped it.

I'm still going to use Python for the raspberry Pi, since I don't know any serial port libraries for Golang (well, a quick google search shows me an option: [https://code.google.com/p/goserial/](https://code.google.com/p/goserial/)) and anyways that part is already working fine.

But if I find the time then yeah, I'd totally rewrite it entirely in Go. But there's many things I'd do before that:

\- Live streaming with a Pi NoIR camera (WebRTC + a paid CDN I guess).

\- Visualization and data analysis. I'm thinking github-style punchcard for the running activity, and when you click a day you can analyse the minute-by- minute laps.

\- Correlation with other sensors. I have temperature, humidity, and ambient light sensors, which could be use to correlate the activity or even predict it.

\- Public API.

Next time you're using poor hotel wifi or you're frustrated with skype (e.g. multiple disconnects per hour), try PhoneCard for a high-quality call.

PhoneCard can call most places in the world, and in some countries you can also purchase incoming numbers that will forward calls to you internationally.

Still very much a beta product, but check it out at [https://www.getphonecard.net](https://www.getphonecard.net)

Also working on an Android app which I hope to release soon.

<comment><USER5> Eh, didn't work for me. I entered the number of my mobile phone and my landline, and neither rang.

I guess it's just an issue pertaining to Serbia (or maybe I'm doing something wrong?). No service works here unless they specifically mention they do. It's a frustrating thing :)

<comment><USER4> I just saw your call in the logs! It will work in Serbia, but I need to do some additional work on the backend to enable certain countries that are typically high cost to call. I had already done this, but apparently it wasn't complete.

For now, I've reset your trial call limit and it should work for you.

<comment><USER5> Whoa, it works! I was surprised to actually see a service with such a wide coverage. I've made an account and verified it, and all seems to work smoothly. The only thing is that I can't find any info on how much the messages or calls cost. Maybe I'm missing something obvious.

I'll also be sure to recommend you to people I know are having this specific difficulty of poor call quality with Skype or Viber. That's a great service you've got there, and keep up the good work :)

<comment><USER4> Awesome! I agree that I need to improve the cost discoverability. The problem is the matrix of rates is huge. In some countries, costs are different per mobile provider, and landlines are usually half the cost or less than mobiles. For example, calling Serbian landline to the US would be roughly $0.20 per minute. Serbian mobile to the US would be roughly $0.55 per minute. That all changes when you call somewhere else.

Of course many countries are not nearly so much. I also do plan to add voip calling within the app. This would allow you to skip the high cost of crossing Serbian boundaries when you're near a decent internet connection, but give you flexibility to make calls directly over the PSTN when needed.

<comment><USER6> Check out the UI for 'webcall' at didlogic.com. I use this service for the exact use case you're targeting, but it's a slight pain because:

1) I have to use Safari instead of an app, so it can't interact with my phone's address book. So I have to copy-paste the two phone numbers.

2) I almost always have to log in each time I use it, because the auth session has timed out.

3) I have to zoom in/out as it's not mobile optimised.

If you could offer the same quality and price as didlogic.com, but with a convenient app interface, that would be awesome.

I have never done any mechanical work before and I am having fun and learning a lot. I highly recommend it as an alternative to starting yet another project.

When I don't feel like working on that or am waiting for parts, I am building an original arcade game. Its in the really early stages but I hope to house it in a traditional coin operated arcade cabinet painted with original artwork from a local artist and put it in a local coffeeshop or something.

I don't have a site to point anyone to for either of these projects.

<comment><USER8> I did this with a 1981 Honda cb750 two winters ago. I also had no prior mechanical knowledge and found it incredibly fulfilling and rewarding. There was an amazing online community dedicated to the motorcycle that I have that was incredibly helpful. I'd recommend this to anyone willing to put in the work.

Edit: I should add that this bike now my daily rider. I could afford a much newer and nicer bike, but I don't think I'll ever sell this one given how much work I put into it and how familiar I am with its internals.

</comment></comment><comment><USER9> A distributed search engine for science, with all parts contained within a browser extension: [https://github.com/ScholarNinja/extension](https://github.com/ScholarNinja/extension)

A blog post about it recently hit the front page of HN: [http://juretriglav.si/an-open-distributed-search-engine- for-...](http://juretriglav.si/an-open-distributed-search-engine-for-science/)

130 people have installed the extension and my server has churned through 100+ GB of data in the past three days, so I'm having scaling/performance issues right off the bat, which is great. Just today we made significant performance improvements (10x) to the underlying webrtc-chord DHT implementation: [https://github.com/tsujio/webrtc- chord/issues/6](https://github.com/tsujio/webrtc-chord/issues/6)

It's a whole lot of fun developing this :) If anyone cares about this stuff, I'm always happy to discuss!

</comment><comment><USER10> Working on TruckPlease [https://www.truckplease.com/](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 get stuff posted from all over the US and Canada.

<comment><USER11> I think it's a great service, and was really toying with the idea of creating something like this when I was living in the UK. But mostly for ebay purchases.

There are lots of bargains for furniture and heavier stuff which is 'pick-up- only'. If you can get a quote for picking it up and delivering it before you even bid on an auction, this will open up loads more opportunities for both buyers, sellers, and local delivery companies.

So my 2 cents worth of tip is adding an ebay bookmarklet or a way to add an eBay id instantly to get a quote on.

Also lots of potential if this grows for moving companies who have extra space in their trucks to bid and fill those gaps within the area.

<comment><USER10> Thanks! You might already know but the UK has AnyVan which is similar but perhaps more for long distance stuff. I think they have eBay integration too. You're right that is a huge market though.

<comment><USER11> Thanks for the tip about AnyVan. I wasn't aware of it. Now I'm in Germany, but I see that they have German presence as well. Very useful to know!

\- Egont, A Web Orchestration Language: [http://blog.databigbang.com/ideas- egont-a-web-orchestration-...](http://blog.databigbang.com/ideas-egont-a-web- orchestration-language/)

\- Egont Part II: [http://blog.databigbang.com/egont-part- ii/](http://blog.databigbang.com/egont-part-ii/)

You can define things like this using s-expressions: (let mytwitter (twitter "databigbang")

Then you can do (twitterdb store (twitter.tweets)) and for every tweet your defines db is updated. Then imagine that your user is called "wslh" you can share your whole db via egont.users.wslh.twitterdb.

Building a service like IFTTT is trivial with this engine, you can also add processing rules to this stuff and share the whole data. For example, if every friend "connects" this service with their IMDB Movies Ranking, you can send all this information to a recommendation engine or just do an average of the scores between all your friends. When a friend adds a new movies everything is recalculated like in a spreadsheet.

Another use is sharing summarized information within a specific market. Imagine you work on selling ruby on rails services, you and others in your market can connect their google analytics information to Egont and provide summarized information for this specific market that helps other to take decisions based on it. You can also restrict how the information is distributed.

<comment><USER13> Very nice. IFTTT was a nice first step, and I've been hoping more sophisticated solutions to the same problem would arrive.

Do you see this being commercial software as a service or self-hosted?

The hardware is now shipping and now I'm working on improving the iOS app, which I've made open source: [https://github.com/nova-device/nova-ios- app](https://github.com/nova-device/nova-ios-app)

<comment><USER16> Wow, this is an awesome idea. Very nice site and product, would buy in a heartbeat. Guys, this needs to get on the frontpage now!

</comment></comment><comment><USER17> I spend about 90% of my time working on Improvely ([https://www.improvely.com](https://www.improvely.com)) which is doubling in customers/revenue every few months. Next month I'm going to be wrapping up a bunch of major features that have been on my TODO list for a long time which will be pretty neat.

I also run W3Counter ([https://www.w3counter.com](https://www.w3counter.com)), a couple e-commerce stores, manage two more e-commerce stores for relatives, and have a few open source projects I mostly just manage pull requests in these days. My date range picker for Bootstrap ([https://github.com/dangrossman/bootstrap- daterangepicker](https://github.com/dangrossman/bootstrap-daterangepicker)) still generates a lot of e-mails asking for help, and I usually end up writing some code for those people.

<comment><USER18> Funny running into you here! I use your Bootstrap date range picker for many of my projects and I think I tweeted you a while back. Really happy with the BS3 update and good to see you in the HN melting pot, thanks again.

</comment></comment><comment><USER19> [http://guildbit.com/](http://guildbit.com/) \- Free, temporary, 10-slot Mumble servers for the gaming community.

I built this so gamers can easily deploy Mumble servers without having to subscribe to a service or install their own server.

I've been working on this for the past 6 months or so and recently added purchased upgrades via Bitcoin (Stripe soon).

<comment><USER20> great idea, look into the eve community.

Also think a temporary mumble channel api would be cool, for the premium server folks.

</comment></comment><comment><USER21> I've been learning Unreal Engine 4. Its worth taking it for a spin just to see its visual Blueprint scripting language that compiles down to C++, which you can watch execute via animation at runtime. It also does mind-blowing things with materials on 3d objects, which can be programmed via connecting nodes visually in blueprints, which then compile down to shaders. It's technologically amazing. A sample [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hwhH7upYFE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hwhH7upYFE)

<comment><USER22> I have been doing this too! I actually just bought a new PC so that I can do hobbyist game development. Always wanted to learn game development (I'm a web developer mainly) but never got around to doing it. With the new subscription service and all, I decided to pick UE4 up to tinker around and create random things, regardless of whether or not I release a commercial game. It's amazing. :)

</comment></comment><comment><USER23> I'm working on a programming language. It's a reimagining of Python as a statically-typed, compiled language. The compiler is written in Python and targets LLVM IR. Currently working towards support for exceptions; raising already works, currently trying to work my way through all the stuff that needs to work for catching.

<comment><USER24> If you haven't taken a look at Nimrod, it might give you some ideas, or perhaps inspire you to be a code contributor! As a python guy, I'm really liking it for some hobby work I'm doing. The compiler and standard library are MIT licensed.

[http://nimrod-lang.org/](http://nimrod-lang.org/) [https://github.com/Araq/Nimrod](https://github.com/Araq/Nimrod)

Also, there's a recent forum posting about the decision not to do LLVM codgen for now: [http://forum.nimrod-lang.org/t/480](http://forum.nimrod- lang.org/t/480). Perhaps you can ask some questions of the main contributors; they're quite responsive.

<comment><USER23> Yeah, Nimrod is somewhat close to what I'm working on, though my language is quite a bit closer to actual Python in many ways. Also, my language does not rely on GC, instead using annotated pointer types to get deterministic memory management (without requiring very explicit allocation and deallocation).

I don't really buy into their reasons that LLVM is harder than C; it's just a different environment, closer to assembler in some ways, but actually quite readable in my opinion.

<comment><USER24> Very cool. Good luck to you and look forward to checking it out!

</comment></comment></comment></comment><comment><USER25> 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](http://radcircle.com)

New completely custom platform built from scratch in it's Alpha stages, using Ruby, Rails and possibly SailsJS.

Would love feedback on our alpha stage or advice / feedback of any kind when it comes to music. I'm a college student and so are all people on the team. First time with a "startup" / web dev / design and everything that goes along with it. :)

<comment><USER26> This is a great problem to attempt to solve, for a few reasons. First, there's heaps of audio content out there with friendly licensing already. Second, there's huge amounts of metadata and related text available. Third, there's so many different angles of analysis to tie things together with. Fourth, everyone's got at least a few devices that can access some or all of that content.

I share your belief that someone can do better than the current offerings in this area.

However, right now your site is not giving me a lot of useful response. I am seeing no results for some pretty popular instruments (I searched 'hang' and 'sitar' and neither had any results). I am seeing very little of a lot of genres out there. And when I do get results, they are not presented in an easily reviewed manner (eg. with Google-style text snippets, many results visible per page in an uncluttered, single-direction-scannable results list).

Here's some random ideas: \- consider search by artist, individual within an artist group, instrument, instrument genre, time, event, venue, genre, review text, reviewer rating or location or age or something \- consider limit by 'has upcoming events near me' (good monetization path) \- timeline of genres \- timeline of releases by an artist \- links to wikipedia background \- metadata from same (+wikidata, etc.)

Good luck developing this further, I think there's a lot of great work to be done.

<comment><USER25> Thank you very much for your feedback. I agree, the site is very basic right now, and we have grand visions for it that we're actively working on to make a reality.

We do believe that we can fine tune and help people discover all kinds of music, and some of the things that you mentioned were absolutely terrific ideas.

Would you be interested in reviewing at a later date to see how we did?

If not, I truly appreciate you taking the time out to let us know what you think :)

It's a very simple generator for static social media sharing buttons with support for Font Awesome: [http://simplesharingbuttons.com/](http://simplesharingbuttons.com/)

Quite useful for mobile websites or email newsletters.

<comment><USER30> I recently went through the hassle of tracking down the necessary info to create a bunch of share buttons manually. Not hard, but time-consuming. This would have been _very_ useful. Simple to use, too. Bookmarked for the next time I have to do that. Thanks!

<comment><USER31> This is pretty awesome! I also made a similar tool at easilyshare.me

<comment><USER29> I really like the interface.

If you're interested, there's a link to a blog post on the bottom of the website with code for some extra social networking/bookmarking sites -- if you'd perhaps like to add support for those. (I didn't add those to the generator because of missing icons in the icon sets.)

At the moment I'm in the process of refactoring how user accounts are handled, so it's not quite ready for self-hosting in a serious way.

I'm also planning on writing a CLI client and an Android app for that project, but have yet to get started on it.

I've also been working on a clojure library to provide a key-value json store abstraction over PostgreSQL ([https://github.com/ShaneKilkelly/bedquilt](https://github.com/ShaneKilkelly/bedquilt)). It's mostly for fun, but I'm thinking of moving all the core logic out into a PostgreSQL plugin, so that all the "smarts" can be done on the PostgreSQL server instance, and then reduce the client library to a thin wrapper over some SQL functions.

</comment><comment><USER37> It's not a product, but I am trying to get better at meditation. Being able to calm yourself is an invaluable skill for a hacker.

<comment><USER38> I've been thinking of trying to work on this myself. Both as a way to manage stress in my life and as a way to put myself in a better creative mindset. Any good resources/tips?

<comment><USER39> I'm a meditation novice so take this with a grain of salt, but the only "For Dummies"-book I've ever enjoyed was "Meditation For Dummies".

It's not a heavy read like some meditation tomes can be but it's not very dumbed down either (IMHO), and it recognizes that some people are interested in the spiritual parts, some the philosophical, while some are only interested in the practical. The book has them all to a good extent, but helps you navigate to the parts that are of use to you.

I'm sure YMMV and different books suit different people, but this one worked well for me. I recommend it, but regardless of what resource you use: There is calm to be found, and it can feel great. Good luck!

Edit: Grammar.

</comment></comment></comment><comment><USER40> I'm working on a todo list with a Seinfeld calendar. My take is that there are only three categories: Work, Home, Personal. There are two buckets of tasks, Short term and long term. You'd move long term tasks into the short term when you start working on them. At the beginning of the week, you'd move the tasks from the short term into the day of the week that you planning to work on them. The catch is, you can only work on three tasks per day. Each task has an associate cost or reward. Get enough done you can reward yourself a nice purchase. Or don't get things done and you'll owe your friend a fancy dinner. There are more details and reasoning behind it, but my idea is to keep the number of tasks small so we can get them done and keep the calendar line going. Other todo lists I used I ended up putting too much on there and it turned into list of lists.

<comment><USER41> Please add me to your mailing list, I'm interested in using this. All of the "Seinfeld-todo's" on the play store or app store look HORRIBLE and work just barely.

</comment></comment><comment><USER47> I've been working a personal finance web app focused on measuring and improving spending behavior. It goes beyond merely "how much did you spend" and addresses the context and decision making process which drives good or bad spending.

The big challenge has been keeping it simple yet providing the appropriate prompts for folks to reflect on and improve their spending decisions. In other words, the code is easy; the product design has been harder for me.

Teaser: [http://www.spendlight.com/](http://www.spendlight.com/)

With luck I'll bring the first batch into the beta in the next few days. Invite code "HN" will bump you to the front of the line.

<comment><USER48> How are you handling the actual accessing of user's finance data? Automatically via API? Or having them maintain a ledger?

<comment><USER47> For now it's manual input. A lot of folks balk at this, but I find I do better when I'm forced to thoughtfully engage with my budget.

For example, my wife and I are primarily concerned about improving our grocery spending. This means that we only have to input spending 2 or 3 times each week. It's really not a burden, and really helps keep our use of the app simple. All of the other spending that goes through our checking account isn't mixed together. It allows us to be very focused.

I sometimes think of it in the same vein as workout/fitness apps. Manually recording some aspects of your activity shouldn't kill the deal. And in our case, we encourage you to do self-evaluation... and that wouldn't come through a feed from your bank anyhow.

<comment><USER11> My wife was using zaim.net (it's in Japanese, but similar principle), and I asked her if it doesn't bother her to enter everything manually. She said it's not a bother, and indeed a part of the enjoyment of tracking her spending.

For me it seems like a real hassle, but for some it's part of what makes it work for them.

Keep it simple! It might not fit everybody, but I think it could work great for enough people. Good luck launching this.

An example route for those not in South Africa: [https://rwt.to/*H5ZVyZFo6](https://rwt.to/*H5ZVyZFo6). Almost production- ready, most work lies in gathering data as our transit agencies don't supply GTFS data like most 1st world countries :)

EDIT: brief on what it is.

It's a couple of books, a website, a mailing list and a bunch of connected Open Source projects, all having the focus on making it easier for people to learn Solr.

The fun part is that doing this for/by myself, I can scratch any itch I want, as long as it's around the core theme. The extra interesting - and challenging - part is to ensure there is a positive-feedback and self-fulfilling prophecy across those products.

<comment><USER54> This looks like a great idea! Some feedback: for a site named 'solr start', I was hoping the first thing I see would be something named 'start here' which explains what solr is, what to use it for, how to get started, etc. Instead, the 1st thing is something arcane called 'UpdateRequestProcessors'!

<comment><USER53> Thanks for the feedback. Currently, I am targeting people who already know what Solr is (otherwise they would not find the site).

But that does not mean that the first page could not do an introduction with some pointers. I'll add that to the todo list.

<comment><USER15> That's pretty frickin' sweet!

</comment></comment><comment><USER57> I'm working on a service which provides (obfuscated) aliases of your users e-mail addresses on your own domain. It only requires some API calls to generate the aliases and eliminates e-mail servers or servers to process the e-mails. Started working on it after a request of a fellow HN'er.

Check it out on: [http://mailobfusc.com](http://mailobfusc.com)

<comment><USER3> I'm not sure I understand the tradeoff here.

It sounds like people are gaining a little bit of extra privacy (by preventing spammers harvesting your email) while sacrificing a ton of privacy (by allowing a a third party MitM to intercept all of their emails to and from that domain).

I actually like the idea a whole lot, but I'd prefer if this could be done in some provably confidential way (where your service has no ability to see the content of messages, only To and From).

<comment><USER57> Of course you're putting some kind of trust in a third party. But the idea here is that you do that with all your good intentions and have a better alternative than just plain listing the address. It is up to us to prove our reliability, got some ideas on how to do that, but love to discuss that with you!

Apart from that it could also provide a service to your customers with the webhooks you utilize.

<comment><USER3> It's not hard to believe in good intentions, but a bit harder to believe that your service is and will always be secure. One breach and suddenly millions of emails from thousands of domains from old backups are all over the internet. There is a way of making a service like this with minimal risk if you have a full breach, but it's hard to verify that as an outsider.

</comment><comment><USER59> So this project is likely to be VERY different than what most HNers are posting - largely because there isn't a MAJOR tech component.

I partnered with a friend of mine to launch a fitness workout series - [https://10poundpledge.com](https://10poundpledge.com) \- Basically, an in- home workout and nutrition guide to losing 10 pounds in 5 weeks with fitness coach Kamila McDonald.

It may sound cheesy, or even 'me-too-ish'....but we think we have done a few new things.

The way this came about is that she entered Miss Jamaica in 2009 when she was overweight and used it as a catalyst to lose her last 15 pounds. In total she lost like 60+ pounds from her peak to where she is now.

She started sharing her journey and her results on social media and people literally started begging her for a "DVD".

So after seeing the many informational type products launched and how well they do in terms of revenue, all of which are focused on some super niche (like Nathan Barry's iOS & Web Design books that have grossed hundreds of thousands so far), I figured we could do something similar with fitness.

Alas, after 2+ years (I know, I cringe when I think about the time too, but it was well worth it) we finally launched and the feedback has been awesome.

I have launched a few products on my own, and I have read many stories about successful products with actual customers - but this is the first time I have had my own.

The best feeling in the world is getting emails from customers, literally thanking us for giving them the opportunity to give us their money.

Never thought I would ever have that experience, and even though the journey is just starting (i.e. 4 weeks ago) I am pleased with what we have done so far.

</comment></comment><comment><USER64> Just getting into development so its slow going. One of the ideas I am working on is a service which will provide a "one stop shop" to manage rental properties and rental relationships. It will includes things such as listing rentals, managing the viewing process, tenant verification, legal documents, and all financial transactions including the ongoing rent payments.

"Landlords" and "Tenants" would set up profiles which will be used to match prospective tenants with listings and vice versa.

Some of the key aspects of this concept are the creation of a marketplace to encourage rental unit upgrades, community management both for large apartment/condo complexes and geographical communities with large concentrations of rental units, and tie-ins with third party services / various partnerships.

</comment><comment><USER65> More a proof of concept, bringing 3D into industry automation. Some Scada/Mes Software already have some kind of 3D interaction but these are basically DWG- Viewers. And that's the first point, dwg is the format which you will get most source from machine producers. A standard in software in production is OPC_UA which already offers functional protocols to be used for 3D implementation. So what I want to see is can you get dwg (maybe parsed to another format) together with the functionallity in OPC_UA present it in an engine (PCs in production are build for durability not graphics power) and can you find an interaction system which can actually be used by a machine operator in production.

[https://github.com/adewes/blitzdb](https://github.com/adewes/blitzdb)

My motivation was that I needed (wanted?) a pure-Python document database that does not have any dependencies (like pymongo) and provides querying capabilities similar to MongoDB.

Currently, Blitz is under active development and comes with a file-based backend as well as a MongoDB backend.

Contributions to the codebase and feedback are highly welcome :)

<comment><USER67> Have you heard of ZODB? You might find it interesting to look at—perhaps you might even find it does all you want, and more.

<comment><USER66> Yeah I know ZODB, but it's not what I want for several reasons:

-Requires C extensions to run (makes it complicated to install on other systems) -Does not provide advanced querying capabilities (to my knowledge) -Does not have transparent references and lazy loading (to my knowledge) -Does not interoperate with MongoDB and other DB systems (to my knowledge)

The nice thing about Blitz is that it allows me to switch from a file-based backend to MongoDB (and SQL in the future) without changing any of my code, and I can write stuff like this:

al_pacino = backend.get(Actor,{'name' : 'Al Pacino'}) robert_de_niro = backend.get(Actor,{'name' : 'Robert de Niro'})

joint_movies = backend.filter(Movie,{'cast' : {'$all' : [al_pacino,robert_de_niro]}})

<comment><USER68> I can debunk two of these right off the bat:

 _Requires C extensions to run_ \- Nope, there are pure-Python implementations as well.

 _Does not provide advanced querying capabilities_ \- Nope, [https://pypi.python.org/pypi/zope.index](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/zope.index), [https://pypi.python.org/pypi/zope.app.catalog](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/zope.app.catalog), [http://docs.repoze.org/catalog/](http://docs.repoze.org/catalog/)

</comment></comment><comment><USER84> I've been writing an algebra editor. It automates much of the details of doing maths while letting you select or move equation fragments. It has been designed around solving back-of-the-envelope calculations so it starts and runs quickly, it's cross platform (a single executable Java *.jar file) and open source ([http://sourceforge.net/projects/ket/](http://sourceforge.net/projects/ket/)). Once you get good at computer programming or maths on paper, problem solving becomes relaxed and automatic. Hopefully the same is true of Ket.

Just as you would write an essay by repeatedly redrafting it, real-world maths problems often require as much effort be put into understanding and clarifying problems as are required to solve them. And yet existing maths programs assume you know the question and need only break it into a series of standard steps (integrate, solve etc.) and leave the details to the computer. When doing maths on paper, you learn to recognize fragments and how to move them around. The intuitions are quite different.

The user interface lets you add functions and symbols which can alternatively be written in plain text, e.g. "sin(\alpha)^2=sqrt(x)". Equations are viewed in conventional mathematics notion and are updated quickly and smoothly. Click-and-dragging equation fragments lets you solve or substitute for variables and - with practice - perform algebra by various keyboard shortcuts.

Bitcoinp ("bitcoin, with padding") is a jsonp enabled api that aggregates api data from the most popular bitcoin exchanges (and platforms that 'provide bitcoin exchange services' such as coinbase) and delivers it to anyone who wants to make it visible on their page (client-side), so they don't have to build a backend to do the same thing. I think it will be useful to people just cutting their teeth on html who've maybe set up a neocities, as well as people making browser extensions or phone apps that want to deliver a customizable view on bitcoin prices, or deliver something similar to [http://preev.com](http://preev.com)

This version relies on an external API instead of parsed comments to keep track of the reactions on Facebook posts.

</comment></comment></comment></comment><comment><USER99> 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 my opinion. I'm writing this in Java (yuck but great at the same time), so packaging each service as a Jar file makes deployment super super easy.

It's actually been really successful thus far (and really easy to write, only a few hundred lines). I think enterprises need to use more "trickery" in their security systems and I don't think a framework exists for this previously. It is really powerful to know that

if (honeypotTouched){ //critical alert }

A lot of honeypot software is old and does not send you alerts when something bad happens to it. Most are external facing. I guess a better name for this is "canary". I got the idea my second time sitting through mubix's "Attacker Ghost Stories" talk.

<comment><USER100> 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.

<comment><USER99> 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 take a lot of photos and probably have thousands of photos in the cloud but I only look at them when I have time (rarely!). I thought of getting a photo frame but have been disappointed with the limitations (ex. switching sd cards, limited space). I set out to create a better photo frame app that connects to the cloud so you don't have to worry about swapping photos. Eventually I pivoted to do a lock screen because it made more sense for the phone form factor. Last week, I add live world cup scores on the lock screen. Its pretty neat. Eventually, I would like to add more relevant information to the lock screen and more photo filtering capabilities.

</comment><comment><USER107> A friend and I are tired of using the Google Authenticator app to manage all of our 2 Factor Authentication codes, so we are planning to build our own set of tools to improve the entire user experience related to 2FA. We are going to treat the project as an experiment and attempt to follow the principles outlined in Ash Maaurya's book Running Lean as strictly as possible. We are planning to start a blog so that we can share all steps of the experiment with the community. This will likely involve documenting the original motivation, our Lean Canvas, the Problem Interviews, the Solution interviews, how/why we made certain engineering decisions, experiments we run and the learning gathered as a result. The first step will be to find and interview as many people as possible to understand if others have a pain point relating to 2FA. If you are interested and/or have a pain point relating to 2FA, please send me an email at conorgilsenan - gmail so that we can arrange a time to chat!

</comment><comment><USER108> Not strictly a coding project, but definitely not the day-job so I'm classing it as a project.

I've been writing a book introducing people to the idea of using data effectively in startup marketing decisions.

"Growth Pirate" \- [http://growth.trak.io](http://growth.trak.io)

I launched the pre-orders at the beginning of June and had some great feedback, plus plenty of suggestions for the next release.

I've found it really liberating and relaxing to write something that has a "flow" like a story. Any blog posts or guest posts need to be "standalone" where as the book has to flow and take the reader on a much longer journey, and I've found it hugely challenging but I've learnt tons from it already.

As the book is aimed at "data-driven beginners" (who are mostly really experienced marketers/CEO's but perhaps new to SaaS or tech startups) so it's a very specific target reader. I'll definitely work on more books in the future after the experience so far!

Leading up to that, a 3D videogame which is experienced via arbitrary 2D planes, displayed in raycaster-style 2.5D. Turns out to be incredibly difficult to navigate a 3D maze with only a 2D viewpoint....

Personal Not-Programming: Building a pair of 5-foot single staffs with woodburning decorations, metal end caps, and quarter pound lead weights embedded in the end for more angular inertia. Also trying to estimate the electric field in orbit around a pulsar for a science fiction story.

It works across machines through ssh, and can provide pretty statistics and logging bits and pieces, but the core of it is to do something to multiple machines at once.

I can select and add arbitrary numbers of machines to a job, then run it, and also put that command on a schedule. Say i want all my packages to be upgraded at all times. I can have this every night at 00:01, to ssh to all the machines and run the appropriate command based on architecture.

This is useful for my internship, where i have to simultaneously deploy and manage many machines, and this app has proven to be immensely scaleable, with up to 1000 VM's being managed at once with no signs of slowdown.

Besides that, all i do now is worry about college

</comment><comment><USER119> I've been working on bif ([http://bifax.org/bif/](http://bifax.org/bif/)) for the past 3 years.

Bif is a project management tool with a command-line interface. It helps you track tasks, issues and bugs using a local database, exchanging updates with remote databases on demand. The tool has several features of interest to distributed project teams:

* Offline Operation - Many bif actions work offline; you can create and update tasks and issues while disconnected from the network.

* Inter-project Cooperation - Bif issues (and tasks) can be linked with (or copied to) multiple projects, mirroring the inter-project relationships that exist in the real world.

This flexibility comes with minimal additional complexity; bif commands are designed for consistency and ease of use.

Bif runs on any system that supports Perl and SQLite.

<comment><USER119> I should probably also mention that bif, while functional is still alpha quality software. And so far tests only pass on Linux and the *BSDs. Testers/bug-hunters for MacOS would be appreciated.

To build on that customizability we added layouts and components which are simply javascript settings changes that dynamically change the display of the widget.

People will be able to collaboratively write a book using SiteBox. It will have version control, possibly using git with an easier user interface.

<comment><USER146> Nice project!

5 minute grumpy feedback:

I don't like "flat design", maybe add some subtle color changes at least? For example highlight the text "Go" (I would suggest "Search" or "Locate" rather) to make clear it is clickable. The text in the search box first made me thing it was active, not sure how to solve that, a lighter color might be too light.

I am on a small screen, the map is limited to a rectangle in the middle: [http://i.imgur.com/TJJ1zfx.png](http://i.imgur.com/TJJ1zfx.png)

There is a non-desript slider in the bottom left (opacity). The list of maps only appeared after I clicked on a different timeframe. I expected the timeframe to switch, but instead it was added to the previous one.

What does the eye mean? What does green mean? What does the + button do? If I hover it, it says "Visible". When I click it I get a (too transparent and subtle) popup saying it was added to my cart. I see no mention of a cart anywhere. If I click the eye, nothing happens.

Browser is Opera 12 something and I pretended to be need hand-holding. :)

<comment><USER20> Thanks a ton for the feedback. This version is a somewhat handicapped version I could share, as the cart process is not ironed out. The only thing I am thinking with the cart is for large bulk downloads in a zip file, for a fee. Trying to solve the USGS discovery and download process.

SmartValet is an app that allow people to interact with valet parking locations via mobile apps to improve their experience when valet parking their vehicles. Some of the features of using SmartValet are paying with credit cards, requesting a car pickup and up to date information about your parked car (cost, time, etc). SmartValet also provides a dashboard for the valet parking location with awesome reports and real-time location information.

The idea was to have a simple, low overhead implementation that still has the potential to be performant, not that I've gotten around to benchmarking it. I'm working on a leaner system of headers where the free-list pointers are stored in the payloads of free blocks instead of the bodies, and the footer of one block is the header for the next (if there is one).

[http://www.thunderdefense.com](http://www.thunderdefense.com)

<comment><USER177> I don't mean to offend you but I watched your promo video and it just _screams_ FUD.

Basically scamming not tech savvy people out of their money?

Your product has _nothing_ to do with what's a firewalls job and yet you claim your product is better and cheaper?

Also if someone has access to your microphone and webcam they probably have a trojan on your box. So I don't see how a your software product could prevent a trojan from simply enabling it again. And no you can not protect against that in any way. Which is _exactly_ the reason why people (including me) put tape over their webcam. Because a trojan can't rip that off.

<comment><USER176> No offense taken, appreciate the input. It's a matter of perspective, like most things. If you are indeed infected with a Trojan that simply re-enables your microphone and webcam after they've been disabled, the software is designed to inform you of that. I don't know of any firewall or anti-virus program that does that, do you? That being said, this certainly isn't a replacement for firewall or anti-virus protection, it just does a better job of making it easier for non-technical users to easily disable and re-enable their devices.

<comment><USER181> So basically it installs a whole bunch of stuff in one container automatically and then does a commit to save the image?

<comment><USER180> More or less. "Container" and "Commit" are probably not so good choices here because it doesn't create repositories for you. But yeah, it makes a lot of stuff automatically. At the end the editor creates a game JSON file that specifies everything in the game and is interpreted by the engine. But the enduser don't have to think about it.

The platform has three components. 1\. game portal for playing/rating/commenting... of games 2. The assets market to find and/or share game assets and 3. the game editor

Basically the editor workflow is:

For every game you need game assets like graphics and sounds. You can upload your own assets or import assets which were shared in the community. Then using these assets you make gameobjects by grag&drop. You can define all kind of properties for the objects like velocity, animations and so so. To make interactions (e.g. fire where a key is pressed or play explosion animation on collision) you define event rules by selecting specific conditions and actions. By creating more of objects and rules you make your game. After your game is finished you can save it on the platform and/or import as android/ios file. But the MVP will allow only webgames in the beginning.

There are already a lot of great game editors, but I hate installing stuff or searching for the assets, so wanted something more integrated all in one place without entry barriers.
