Thank you for your responses, especially on a Sunday. They give us some insights and at least a couple temporary workarounds to use, while the issues are being addressed :) much appreciated

I've been using Code for half a year, these past couple weeks have been a totally different experience I'm on max 20, and seeing my weekly quota going bust in ~3 days is a bit absurd when nothing has significantly changed in the way I work

For whoever else is having the same problems, worth voting these kind of issues. There needs to be more transparency over what goes on with our subscriptions.

Show HN: Is it time yet? Countdowns for Google Calendar

cmaster11 — Fri, 16 Jan 2026 15:12:11 +0000

I built this free web app a couple of years ago because I always need to know what meetings are coming up, and I've never found a satisfactory solution. So, here comes a web app that throws countdowns at you, as well as playing ping sounds/flashing the screen when meetings are approaching. I always have multiple screens around, and I dedicate a vertical panel to this app.

Lately, I've upgraded it to also support booking rooms by querying for free rooms and "fast booking" them depending on a custom priority list. I have a personal use case for this one: even periodic meetings don't have assigned rooms, so I can just bulk-book the first available rooms for the next couple of weeks for every meeting that does not have an associated one.

I hope this app can help others find some help for their corporate lives, as it did for me :D

The app currently operates on the locale of your browser, so it will adapt the events naturally to the local time. The countdown will be based on your local timezone

New comment by cmaster11 in "IoT Emergency Alert Button with RPi and Notify17 (who launched on HN last year)"

cmaster11 — Thu, 23 Apr 2020 06:46:10 +0000

Hi, Notify17 author here :)

I just wanted to point out that there is not a single part of the flow which is not encrypted at rest, and, apart from text-processing areas, in transit.

All user-content arguments sent to the hook endpoints (to generate notifications) are obscured for the whole flow of the notification generation. Which causes trouble when trying to debug issues, but oh well, I believe privacy is more important than anything else in this context.

I dream for this tool to be used by devops people (I'm mainly one of them!), so I value the privacy element in this project above all. It happens that I end up asking users "what the hell did you type there to break things to much" :D

For the matter of logs, I'm so happy about having used Go for this project, because I can mask fields here and there nicely (e.g. https://github.com/cmaster11/structs/blob/master/structs.go#... ).

I'm sorry, I must have explained myself badly earlier.

Notify17 and Pushover share some competing features, clearly, because both are notification services. From that point of view, there can be competition, no discussion about it.

At the current moment, however, I feel they have different visions. I want Notify17 to be, at least in its initial phases, a personal/small team tool, more than a mass distribution one. I want user to personalise their notifications, and integrate Notify17 in their workflow. More than targeting 10s of thousands of notifications to huge groups, I imagine more single users or small teams creating their own templates world.

I'm not excluding that, as Notify17 will grow, it could become a competitor of Pushover. Especially when the alerting features will grow and improve. They're just targeting, in my pure opinion and for this initial growth phase, a different user base and a different vision.
