Posts are for problems alone, Explain the problem in detail and then user comments section to explain what you have created as per submission guidelines.
You have two options. The cheap option is to buy Office 365 Essentials and most of that stuff is included in one form or another apart from the accounting software. The second is the super cheap Zoho which has a free option for each one of their products including accounting software. Alternatively you can have access to their entire stack for $35 per month so I think there are options.
Cloudflare, A web security firm and one of the largest users of captcha has announced that they are moving away from captcha - https://blog.cloudflare.com/turnstile-private-captcha-alternative/ in favor of background detection mechanism called Turnstile to present the challenge as a final resort.
A solution for live recommendation would involve heavy computation, So it definitely cannot be local. Users who need live recommendation should be willing to upload their notes to a cloud service and then have good Internet connectivity to use the feature.
I personally feel these compromises are fair considering the major productivity gains from a live recommendation system, Do you feel that way?
Hi there, I made my own chrome extension habit tracker called ConsistenSea. I went for the minimalist approach and made everything as simple as possible. No extraneous features, just simple timer-based habit tracking. Give it a try if you'd like, it's totally free!
A tool which enables following Twitter threads could potentially enable even those who don't have a Twitter account to get updates from Twitter threads.
I believe even a Non-Profit aimed at creating awareness and bringing free International education content to the students from marginalized communities would be a worthy endeavor.
I wanted to read an article in the economist associated with their podcast, I got some details from the podcast description(There were no links there). Here are the results from different search engines -
DDG, "economist deep mind 3 dimensional protein", First result is a 2020 article about how proteins fold [https://www.economist.com/science-and-technology/2020/11/30/how-do-proteins-fold], Related to my query but not the result I wanted.
Brave Search, "economist deep mind 3 dimensional protein", First result is a 2019 article about Deepmind and Google with a mention of protein folding [https://www.economist.com/1843/2019/03/01/deepmind-and-google-the-battle-to-control-artificial-intelligence], Not the result I wanted.
Google, "economist deep mind 3 dimensional protein", First result is from Aug 2022 titled "How artificial intelligence cracked biology’s biggest problem" [https://www.economist.com/alphafold-pod], Which was exactly what I wanted.
In this case Google got me the best result purely because I wanted the latest result, But the results from DDG might have better content and the podcast article links to it.
Before humans stored memories as zeroes and ones, we turned to digital devices of another kind — preserving knowledge on the surface of fingers and palms. Kensy Cooperrider leads us through a millennium of “hand mnemonics” and the variety of techniques practised by Buddhist monks, Latin linguists, and Renaissance musicians for remembering what might otherwise elude the mind.
I read the post, we can certainly help you capture images and expose them in Open Graph.
see the advantages of using Screenshots:
- is a tool focused on developers, to be simple, easy to integrate
- I am developed Screenshots with a focus on the API, just calling a url, that means it's very fast to integrate it with any service and also any language
- through a call to our API we receive an image as a result, simple as that our API supports various parameters such as sizes, quality and even the load event, so you can refine/optimize your Screenshots based on your needs
- our prices are attractive
- I am always available for help with Screenshots
according to your needs, you can be running a service with 2, 3 (as many as you like) agents making the call to Screenshots, saving the images in your store and that's it!
I like the straightforward demo at the hero section of the page without requiring any login or sign-up to try the tool, Nicely done. I will be adding it to my curated list of startup tools at https://startuptoolchain.com soon.
This is interesting. I think as you've said the real problem is not the accessibility of the things to themselves, there are thousands. The difficult part is making a choice. If the app were to present a limited selection of vetted, definitely worthwhile activities (say 3 per day, or 10 per week) that you could book in one tap, no forms, that would be quite fun.
A difficult part I see is the huge range of interests people have. If you present salsa dancing, comedy and dinner, would you have enough range? The difference with meal kits is that everyone eats and most people enjoy eating most things. If the app to were recommend a concert as one of the 3 options, it would be very unlikely to match my musical taste.
A lot of people enjoy a regular commitment to something as well, becoming part of a community and benefitting from the investment made in attending something regularly. You wouldn't be able to get that with this.
It is a writing app powered by GPT-3, It can help you write faster across different applications (like Google docs, Notes, Gmail, Word, and etc.) Features include,
* Grammar fixes
* Sentence rewrites
* Blog writing
* Email writing
* Translation support
You can use your own OpenAI keys, which means we don't store your content.
I may work on Windows and Linux versions. My goal for now is to test how it is received with Mac users. Elephas reduces the friction to use AI writing by sitting on your OS instead of an external service.
Be it 10 followers or 10 million followers, engage followers monitors the tweets from our followers and classifies them using Machine Learning based on our chosen topics of interest.
We can then choose to either Auto Engage (by liking the tweet) or receive an Email Digest by the end of the day of all tweets which matched our chosen topics. I believe this positive engagement with those whom we share common interests can create meaningful relationships on Twitter and thereby increasing the engagement for what we do.
I really like this idea, just to clarify - is it your intention to create open source code that can be (with a little bit of devops knowledge) hosted on the server or you choice just to help creators? If it is the case, the idea is wonderful (although I am not sure about how many creators actually have the knowledge to self host such a code on platforms like heroku or aws).
If it's not the case, I must ask - do you have some source of revenue for this product in mind? I have a few ideas but it's not easy in this case
In fact I researched about those since I posted this problem and have come to some conclusions,
Open-source alternatives for Patreon [1] [2] have done poorly and have been abandoned; I think its largely because those who use Patreon are non-technical users and they weren't looking for a self-hosted alternative.
Patreon has become synonymous with donations due to YouTubers, That even those who are capable of self-hosting (or) creating their own payment host is choosing to use Patreon instead for its brand.
That said, The problems I mentioned and bad reviews of Patreon on trustpilot suggest that there could a need-gap for an alternative. Perhaps, Another Patreon is what could address that instead of a self-hosted one.
I'm planning on building an on-premise payment host as an alternative for Gumroad instead - /problems/399 , As I think it could address problems with Gumroad better.
Relying only on the IP address is not so effective. Antibot Cloud - https://antibot.cloud/ (Antibot, Antispam, Firewall to protect WordPress and PHP websites from bots and threats) solves the problem of bad bots. But it does not decide on the basis of a ready-made IP base, but in real time at the time of the request, it is a bot or a person who decides. The service has been operating since 2017.
Probably the best solution would be some kind of defi contract. In general, every will/trust has an executor, but you could build it in a trustless way if all you need to transfer are cryptographic keys. For example, you could write a de-fi contract that would automatically transfer the keys or all of your currency in three days to the wallets of your beneficiaries. If you survive the surgery, you would have 3 days to cancel the contracts execution.
I have a hands off approach towards cryptocurrencies so I didn't look in this direction but wouldn't the key be transparent to everyone on the blockchain and thereby defeating the purpose?
You would just encrypt the information and store it on on the chain. I believe defi contract languages have this functionality built in, but I’ve never written a contract myself.
Unless there's support for asymmetric encryption, this will not work as symmetric encryption would still require transfer of that key again. A quick search on Etherium's smart contract (solidity) results in it asymmetric encryption of smart contract data being impossible[1][2] there.
Well all ledgers use asymmetric encryption on a fundamental level. I'm not an expert, so the following description is likely not entirely accurate, but it works something like this:
Every wallet is secured by a private key derived from a multi-word "recovery phrase". Your "wallet address" is derived from the private key and serves as the public key that anyone can use to verify that a transaction has, infact, come from your wallet. So at the very least, if you could guarantee the nonces/salts are sufficiently random, you could probably store arbitrary information in your wallet that only you could read.
I also know that smart contracts can be granted permission to make transactions on your behalf. In the simple case of needing to transfer crypto assets, for example, you could write a contract that could move all of your assets into and out of a trust.
All that said, I'm not sure if you could perfectly hand off arbitrary private key information completely on chain or not. Again - I'm not an expert. I'm not even a hobbiest. I'm just a spectator at this point.
Screens are the starting point of the mobile app lifecycle internally for the operating system (Android/iOS) as well so it makes sense for App builder tools to start with it, Besides someone using a no-code tool would visualize their app via screens too.
But your distinction between Wix & WordPress as analogy for mobile apps is interesting, Could you be specific about what feature you found missing with current no-code tools for mobile development?
Btw, I think the success of WordPress is largely because of it being open-source and so hosting providers choosing it for deploying websites.
I think you're definitely on to something here. Planning makes me anxious and I would prefer to wave a magic wand and have it done for me. I think there needs to be a way of including other people in the planning process though. Maybe this could be a conversational ai app in the personal assistant category.
For example, if I need a dinner reservation made, I want to be able to say "make a dinner reservation for 2 people and run it by my wife". The app should be able to follow up (eg. "do you care what time or day this week?"). Then it should give my wife two or three options and ask me to confirm.
Apple AirTag - https://www.apple.com/airtag/ could help locate at-least the airport where our lost baggage if we came through several connected airports, But retrieving that baggage by coordinating with the help desk is again going to be a huge pain.
This is exactly our mission over at Interval ( https://interval.com ) - spend less time on boilerplate and more time on your business logic :) Interval produces web UIs straight from your backend code, giving you authentication, permissions, notifications, input validation, and more.
Our focus is on internal tools, freeing up more time to work on your product instead of internal software.
Hello!!. we are building an easy-yo-use deep learning platform to analyze and get metrics from text and conversational data. You can check it in https://Deep-Talk.ai
You can cluster, classify data, or train custom deep learning models without programming a line of code. You did not even need to study something related to engineering to use the platform. We are also in Product Hunt https://www.producthunt.com/posts/deep-talk
We are working with a couple of insurance companies, it's really interesting what you can get from emails, chats, surveys, reviews or social media using deep learning.
That’s insightful! I’m assuming the quality is higher for the curated options compared to a random pick. Also booking/arranging the event for them. But I’m unsure if the value added is enough for customers to pay for it.
Deepfake Offensive Toolkit offers real-time deep fake web cam videos, An ethical usage I can think of using it for is for faking smile on my videos as remembering to smile on videos is cognitively exhaustive to me.
As a solution, it could help companies to buy analytics products in which they can watch and see if their ads are effective and they can target the right customer. I could make an analytics company that can help other companies to analyze and know if their ads are targeting the right people and getting positive responses so they can get a better idea of who are their customer base and how to sell to that crowd.
What do you think could be done which Google, Facebook Et al. haven't done so far to provide better insights for their advertisers? And they have the capacity to track their users beyond their platforms from birth to the grave.
I agree that online advertising is a mess though, At least for those without unlimited budget to throw at it.
As a solution, I could make a social media platform in which investors of any kind can find financial information regarding the results of the company and investors can be comunicated using this platform so they have a better idea of how can they perform.
Issues with accessing financial data seems to be a region specific problem, Where I live there are numerous services which offer such data + analysts view of the company's performance and if not it's accessible through govt. website since it's a public company. So if you mention your region, I'll ask the moderator to update the problem statement with it.
As for social media for stock market investment/trading, The main issue is people trying to game each other i.e. If one wants to sell, They'll tell others that they're buying; This is rampant in any stock market information website which has built-in social forum. E.g. Look at forum section of this highly rated stock information website in India - https://www.moneycontrol.com/india/stockpricequote/pharmaceuticals/drreddyslaboratories/DRL ; It's either people trying to game each other (or) outright spam trying to advertise their services. If you want high quality discourse, Then you need extraordinary moderation in place which is difficult to keep up with with high phase of stock market and so you need to solve these problems first.
Maybe impose some rules right when they begin creating an account where they can't scam other people and if they do so are banned. Another option is to pay a premium price in which users can comment to avoid scams and see if the user is not trying to scam other people.
Also, a good idea is to sign up in two ways: sign up as a company or as an investor. Companies can only make posts but investors can read their financials without dealing the bots trying to pump the stock/crypto they're promoting.
It takes your WordPress featured photo and title to overlay them using multiple different types of templates. Still working on a solution that'll work if you aren't using WordPress.
Nicely done! When I was using Wordpress coming up with open graph images was a sure.
For non WordPress websites, You could start by targeting the static page generators such as Hugo, Jekyll by writing and extension/plugin for them; At least that's what I had in mind to address this problem but never got to building it.
Some key statistics on returns in U.S. from that story -
16 million tons of carbon emissions each year are estimated from the returns.
Up to 5.8 billion pounds of landfills each year.
Liquidation companies which sell these returned items in a lot directly to the consumers seems to be a profitable way to address this problem, There's a need-gap for such services in India.
Everyone who is apart of the e-commerce,l and logistics world. Consumers need it cause it will save them a trip to the mail center and companies need it because it will ultimately get them some money back in theire pocket on these without having to do anything other then issue the refund
Interesting, Could you explain how it addresses the problem of frictions in returning a product and in avoiding loss for e-commerce firms which takes in returned products?
After using many productive apps I decided to create my own combining time, habit and mood tracker. I think that a great title of this could be 'A tracker for everyday activities' because the idea is to track all 24h of the day without gaps. The greatest difference of this app in my opinion is the feature to track time while unlocking the phone.
The design was built from ground up by me combining some inspirations, I hope you like it.
Great work, But until our solutions are easily accessible to non-tech Anki users we'd be addressing the problem of accumulated Anki reviews for only ourselves.
A browser add-on does sound like a way to mitigate that issue though.
I don't see what you mean by "browser add-on". The issue is that I use advanced machine learning libraries coded in C, this makes it difficult to package to users with different platforms.
Even if packaged as an addon, there are no GUI.
I know I won't have time to do this in the coming years (medical student), but the project is FOSS and help is always appreciated.
I actually don't know. I was just told that adding libraries as an addon is very complicated because the C has to be compiled specifically for each CPU instruction set.
But even if I knew how to do it, I have no time to make a GUI in the coming months so status quo it is.
If you want to take a look at it don't hesitate :) The problematic libs are probably pandas, numpy, tokenizer, nltk and sklearn.
The problematic libs are probably pandas, numpy, tokenizer, nltk and sklearn.
All of them work fine in x86 & ARM as I've used them numerous times on my applications on those platforms; Likely does well in Power PC platform as well.
But I haven't built Anki Desktop add-on, So it's likely you've been warned about cross-platform compilation.
HR They put a huge list of requirements they have no idea what they even mean. Compouter science has nothing to do with web development. I been doing this for 20 years and dont even have a bschelor in anything. Most full stack dont go to college.
They put bachellor required to scare newcomers like you
Finally, I've built a project which directly addresses a problem related to Human memory, lack of thereof in the form of Memory Hammer to address the problem of Anki review accumulation ( /problems/384 ) .
To solve this problem, I have created Memory Hammer: An always-on Anki review system - https://memoryhammer.com .
Memory Hammer uses e-paper display to show the Anki cards which are due as an when its due, So that we need not wait for our review schedule. With Memory Hammer, Any time is good for a review like taking a break from the work (or) during a workout session since it's always by our side.
As a possible idea, I could make a platform in which customers can search, look and buy/rent their best tuxedos so they can decide what tuxedo suits them the best and get ready faster for their next wedding.
True, I've seen on numerous occasions people asking for a single subscription services for Movies/TV series/Gaming but unlike News these Entertainment subscription services doesn't seem to be struggling (at-least the top ones) as people are willing to pay for multiple subscriptions and with complex region-wise licensing issues of movies I doubt whether multi-subscription service would ever be a reality in this space.
Utmost, I see one big streaming service being acquired by a bigger one which again is a bad news for the consumers.
Although subscribers moving to other subscription platforms where their favorite show or movie is; could be one of the factors, I don't think it's the primary or at-least cannot confirm unless we see substantial rise in the subscriber numbers for the competing platforms. I think apart from the factors Netflix admitted(Pulling out of countries due to war, Password sharing etc.), I think global inflation and consumers cutting down on their non-essential expenses(which includes subscriptions not just limited to entertainment) are the real reasons.
TiPY keyboard is a one hand keyboard - https://tipykeyboard.com/en/home/ with their own TiPY layout, Regardless of having to learn new layout for typing the keyboard, The price is 350€ which although is relatively less expensive than other one-handed keyboards is still not an affordable keyboard for all.
If one is ready to learn a new layout for typing with one-hand keyboard then I think going for a DIY solution like https://artsey.io/ is the cost-effective way, Not sure whether this particular project - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dicYf7OiS3Q is currently maintained but there are other similar DIY projects out there.
I'm not trying to vilify smartphones in general, After all the advancement of smartphone technology have had numerous beneficial consequences from spill-over effects like advancement in compute power, optics, Internet penetration, Secure communication etc.
But I wanted to point out what I think is the root cause of smartphone addiction and I don't think a small population switching to dumb phones can address that.
In order to solve this problem we created https://www.streamplayed.com/ and we've built the application to specifically handle screenplay formatting better.
Literally 2 minutes ago I have published a post on how to integrate Plausible with Stormkit - https://www.stormkit.io/blog/using-analytic-tools-with-stormkit . Plausible is an open source analytic platform that is cookieless (if I'm not mistaken) and GDPR friendly.
Added a note to the monthly insights email about individual problem subscription, Those who subscribe to the Ideator plan can subscribe to individual problems for their monthly insights by clicking on 'WHO NEEDS THIS' on any problem.
Monthly insights are tailored for each individual, So apart from trending problem, startup idea for the month it would also contain insights for the problems you are subscribing to.
Those who have Ideator plan and not subscribing to individual problems are missing out on great value.
Because of this, I had the idea for how to solve it. I recently I finally started spending a few hours, here and there, putting together an MVP. So glad to say that it's ready for testing and to earn some feedback!
With this finally out there, I hope to learn if there's a market for Inviteable. It's very similar to Facebook Events, which I know gets plenty of use, so at the very least, I would think the market exists for certain groups.
I hope that Inviteable can help fill in the gap, and is a platform that provides a simple UX that accomplishes the basics exceptionally well.
In response to this, I decided to create my own music theory learning resource over at https://muted.io/. I wanted to create a website that would make it easy to play the different scales and chords online. I also wanted to make a resource that would be an easy reference and help me and others avoid having to remember so much. For example, I created this page for an easy reference to major and minor scales: https://muted.io/major-minor-scales/
My plan is to continue expanding this resource and add to it more and more, especially as I learn myself the music theory concepts and think of good ways to break them down in a simpler more straightforward way.
I hope that this solution is helpful to others that are facing a similar challenge.
It might be worth to note that most Windows & macOS users download all their software from their App Store and an average Linux/Unix user likely knows how to execute commands so this problem likely affects only those who download software from websites manually in Windows/macOS.
Although technically any file (e.g. .pdf) can be compromised to execute malicious code on our systems, Generic files don't usually come with hashes for integrity checks(Perhaps another larger problem?).
You need a development toolchain like Vercel/Netlify but our own CDN?
I guess it makes sense for large scale users who would want total control, But aren't majority of Vercel/Netlify users in early stage who cannot run their own CDN and find their edge delivery very useful?
Indeed! The target audience is users who'd like to take more control and deploy their application on alternative destinations. Usually, these are either applications with high traffic or users with GDPR concerns. When the application has a lot of traffic, Vercel/Netlify becomes very expensive.
We just released an integration on https://www.stormkit.io * which allows users deploying directly to BunnyCDN for instance, this was a request coming from a user who had concerns with:
I'm also considering individual hashtag based subscription, Say like subscribing to just eCommerce based problems and whenever a problem for eCommerce is posted you'll receive the email notification. Would you be interested in such a feature for monthly USD 5?

I think the new trending sort method in Stack overflow fixes this issue.
Read: https://meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/418767/trending-a-new-answer-sorting-option
This is interesting. I think as you've said the real problem is not the accessibility of the things to themselves, there are thousands. The difficult part is making a choice. If the app were to present a limited selection of vetted, definitely worthwhile activities (say 3 per day, or 10 per week) that you could book in one tap, no forms, that would be quite fun.

Hey Perry
I built https://ferris.app to solve this problem.
Older folks use Facebook, younger ones Snap, but those apps are basically to consume content and the main focus is not events or activities.
Ferris is focused on planing activities with your best friends
- Spontaneous activities like a ☕ coffee on the next break
- Blurry ones like going to the 🍿 movies someday/somewhere next month
- Repetitive ones like going 👟 running during the summer
- Planned ones like a 🎸 concert this Friday
FEATURES
- Free plan (receive unlimited activities, send 8 monthly) Paid plan ($9.99 yearly)
- No ads, no data selling
- Indie
- Invite only
- Privacy-minded
what do you think about ivetime ? ( https://ivetime.net )
doesn't it solve your problem?
Hi Steven, Could you explain a bit more about how you think ivetime addresses this problem?
Have you looked at https://www.poof.io/, they accept many different payment methods and offer much lower fees than Gumroad.
Thanks for sharing, Can you explain how poof addresses the need-gap with Gumroad?
I wouldn't say we are a shopify alternative, but Linkcart is a simplified ecommerce platform for small businesses ( https://linkcart.co/ )
Thanks for sharing, Could you explain a bit more about how Linkcart addresses some of the issues with Shopify and its likes?
I like this idea. I would like to schedule my evening/weekend activities like I would if they were work things.
To address this problem, I have built Elephas

Apple AirTag - https://www.apple.com/airtag/ could help locate at-least the airport where our lost baggage if we came through several connected airports, But retrieving that baggage by coordinating with the help desk is again going to be a huge pain.

Hello!!. we are building an easy-yo-use deep learning platform to analyze and get metrics from text and conversational data. You can check it in https://Deep-Talk.ai
You can cluster, classify data, or train custom deep learning models without programming a line of code. You did not even need to study something related to engineering to use the platform. We are also in Product Hunt https://www.producthunt.com/posts/deep-talk
We are working with a couple of insurance companies, it's really interesting what you can get from emails, chats, surveys, reviews or social media using deep learning.
That’s insightful! I’m assuming the quality is higher for the curated options compared to a random pick. Also booking/arranging the event for them. But I’m unsure if the value added is enough for customers to pay for it.
Deepfake Offensive Toolkit offers real-time deep fake web cam videos, An ethical usage I can think of using it for is for faking smile on my videos as remembering to smile on videos is cognitively exhaustive to me.
A two year old paper titled 'Detecting Deep-Fake Videos from Phoneme-Viseme Mismatches' claims 80% detection of fakes by recognizing minute mismatches in the sounds people make and the shape of their mouths
As a solution, it could help companies to buy analytics products in which they can watch and see if their ads are effective and they can target the right customer. I could make an analytics company that can help other companies to analyze and know if their ads are targeting the right people and getting positive responses so they can get a better idea of who are their customer base and how to sell to that crowd.
As a solution, I could make a social media platform in which investors of any kind can find financial information regarding the results of the company and investors can be comunicated using this platform so they have a better idea of how can they perform.
Maybe impose some rules right when they begin creating an account where they can't scam other people and if they do so are banned. Another option is to pay a premium price in which users can comment to avoid scams and see if the user is not trying to scam other people.
Also, a good idea is to sign up in two ways: sign up as a company or as an investor. Companies can only make posts but investors can read their financials without dealing the bots trying to pump the stock/crypto they're promoting.
Hey Abishek! If you're using WordPress you can use my new plugin MightyShare! https://wordpress.org/plugins/mightyshare/
It takes your WordPress featured photo and title to overlay them using multiple different types of templates. Still working on a solution that'll work if you aren't using WordPress.
Everyone who is apart of the e-commerce,l and logistics world. Consumers need it cause it will save them a trip to the mail center and companies need it because it will ultimately get them some money back in theire pocket on these without having to do anything other then issue the refund
Do you have something in mind which can address this problem of e-commerce returns?
Yes I do I have an idea for a complete end to end reverse logistics platform as well as a reverse commerce marketplace
Interesting, Could you explain how it addresses the problem of frictions in returning a product and in avoiding loss for e-commerce firms which takes in returned products?
Hi,
After using many productive apps I decided to create my own combining time, habit and mood tracker. I think that a great title of this could be 'A tracker for everyday activities' because the idea is to track all 24h of the day without gaps. The greatest difference of this app in my opinion is the feature to track time while unlocking the phone.
The design was built from ground up by me combining some inspirations, I hope you like it.
Any feedbacks would be great!

Solved the issue with AI and ML a few months ago : https://github.com/thiswillbeyourgithub/AnnA_Anki_neuronal_Appendix/
It's a companion python script to anki. I would love to make it into an addon but it's not straightforward.
I don't see what you mean by "browser add-on". The issue is that I use advanced machine learning libraries coded in C, this makes it difficult to package to users with different platforms.
Even if packaged as an addon, there are no GUI.
I know I won't have time to do this in the coming years (medical student), but the project is FOSS and help is always appreciated.
I actually don't know. I was just told that adding libraries as an addon is very complicated because the C has to be compiled specifically for each CPU instruction set.
But even if I knew how to do it, I have no time to make a GUI in the coming months so status quo it is.
If you want to take a look at it don't hesitate :) The problematic libs are probably pandas, numpy, tokenizer, nltk and sklearn.
I felt there was a need to simplify finding the "basic" things that would get anyone into a show and these are
i. The Synopsis
ii. Rating
iii. Episode Count
So I built The Anime Info Platform using data from aniList, over here you can "Search" for any show using the search button
and retrieve what i think are the "main necessary" details that gets anyone into any show
Of course if you're still interested in other information such as Staff, Voice Actors, etc. there's the "More Info" button
which will take you straight to the AniList page of that anime so you can find these details.
I also included a randomized show generator that refreshes everytime you search for a show or click on the "Surprise me" button
this will generate 5 random shows for you to check out if you're like me and can't decide on what show to watch at certain times
Top all of this off with a "dynamic color pallete" and you have yourself a simple environment to find any show you want. It's
100% web based and as such you don't need to download any app for this. it is 100% responsive on mobile
you can check it out here: https://anime-info-platform.vercel.app/
Hmm seems u are new in searching for jobs...
HR They put a huge list of requirements they have no idea what they even mean. Compouter science has nothing to do with web development. I been doing this for 20 years and dont even have a bschelor in anything. Most full stack dont go to college.
They put bachellor required to scare newcomers like you
Finally, I've built a project which directly addresses a problem related to Human memory, lack of thereof in the form of Memory Hammer to address the problem of Anki review accumulation ( /problems/384 ) .
A subscription service which sends chess quiz, tactics, fun-facts designed specifically for different age groups every month could bridge this gap.
Resilient cooling of buildings by constructing urban-forests, high-rise rooms, heavyweight structures which can capture heat seems like a solution accessible to many and space for startups to operate.
As a possible idea, I could make a platform in which customers can search, look and buy/rent their best tuxedos so they can decide what tuxedo suits them the best and get ready faster for their next wedding.
You may be on to something with this. In a similar way that you can see the same movie on different streaming services.
Netflix Inc. NFLX -3.52% shares fell 35.1% on Wednesday, recording their worst day since 2004, after the streaming giant reported that it lost subscribers in the first quarter - https://www.wsj.com/articles/netflix-stock-price-plunges-premarket-after-subscriber-loss-11650449002 .

In order to solve this problem we created https://www.streamplayed.com/ and we've built the application to specifically handle screenplay formatting better.
Literally 2 minutes ago I have published a post on how to integrate Plausible with Stormkit - https://www.stormkit.io/blog/using-analytic-tools-with-stormkit . Plausible is an open source analytic platform that is cookieless (if I'm not mistaken) and GDPR friendly.
Because of this, I had the idea for how to solve it. I recently I finally started spending a few hours, here and there, putting together an MVP. So glad to say that it's ready for testing and to earn some feedback!
With this finally out there, I hope to learn if there's a market for Inviteable. It's very similar to Facebook Events, which I know gets plenty of use, so at the very least, I would think the market exists for certain groups.
I hope that Inviteable can help fill in the gap, and is a platform that provides a simple UX that accomplishes the basics exceptionally well.
Check it out at https://www.inviteable.app .
In response to this, I decided to create Qreuz at https://qreuz.com
The ethical monitoring solution at Qreuz helps to collect statistical website data that can't be aggregated into any profiles.
There are no cookies involved and there is also no server-side fingerprinting or other hidden technologies to aggregate visitor profiles.
With connectors, you can connect your monitoring data to marketing tools and your data warehouse.
The solution at Qreuz helps to add consent-free monitoring to your website.
The easiest way to integrate monitoring with Qreuz is available for WordPress: https://qreuz.com/wordpress.
We are also supporting any other PHP-based CMS and any website hosted on Apache or Nginx.
The plan with Qreuz is to offer an alternative for websites and a real value beyond better privacy.
In response to this, I decided to create my own music theory learning resource over at https://muted.io/. I wanted to create a website that would make it easy to play the different scales and chords online. I also wanted to make a resource that would be an easy reference and help me and others avoid having to remember so much. For example, I created this page for an easy reference to major and minor scales: https://muted.io/major-minor-scales/
My plan is to continue expanding this resource and add to it more and more, especially as I learn myself the music theory concepts and think of good ways to break them down in a simpler more straightforward way.
I hope that this solution is helpful to others that are facing a similar challenge.
Indeed! The target audience is users who'd like to take more control and deploy their application on alternative destinations. Usually, these are either applications with high traffic or users with GDPR concerns. When the application has a lot of traffic, Vercel/Netlify becomes very expensive.
We just released an integration on https://www.stormkit.io * which allows users deploying directly to BunnyCDN for instance, this was a request coming from a user who had concerns with:
1. High costs due to bandwidth
2. GDPR issues
and the user was deploying on Netlify.
*PS: I'm the founder so I am opinionated
