Eh. Another product driven into ground by Microslop

Hilarious

That means I have to: - build something so I can evaluate the results. - track each of these projects separately otherwise they turn into dust after quite some time. Gladly claudesidian seems to be working well with the unstructured stream of inputs. Feel like hooking it up with some task tracker cli and calendar and notifications could make life a bit better too. - plan next projects to keep evaluating other skills and tools

It’s been discussed so many times the amount of new or personalized software that appears and will appear and it seems so true.

Whatever I built I am actively using myself - a text rewriter that cleans some of the AI speak and has MCP and cli (at https://www.refineo.app). Math teaching and solving extension at https://math.photos and a self hosted stock opportunity discovery tool that runs locally. This is just to automate what I did before manually and scale it up a bit.

> Any new ideas

There’s no product yet to cover the needs of all of us launching the software into the internet void. Any ad platform out there is a hot and very outdated mess and I just can’t. There is going to be a better way with all the capabilities we have and someone is going to really nail it.

Thank you HN and HN community for sharing the most interesting places of internet, ideas, discussions and points of views. Learned a lot and hope to learn more.

Chilling realization

Same thought came when I was reading the article and glad I am not alone.

Anecdotally, most common productivity boost is coming from cutting down weird slow steps in processes. Write an automation script, campaign previewer for marketing, etc etc.

Coding seems to transform to be a more efficient (again anecdotally) but not entirely faster. You can do a better work on a new feature in the same or slightly smaller time.

Idle time at 4% was interesting. I think this number goes higher the more you use a specific tool and adjust your workflow to that

I tried Gliglish but didn’t like how it was structured. So I started turning my own “learn a language before a trip” routine into something easier to use.

Dutch is not supported yet, and there are still some rough edges. But the idea is simple: help people remember words by using them. You say or type something, and get a reply you can hear or read.

In conversations on IF, there is no fixed path. You can start with a topic, then ask to switch to something else. It’s meant to be low-pressure and flexible.

Still figuring things out. Happy to share more or hear from others working on similar tools.

Glad to see this on HN.

Ads all the way, almost no posts from my network, and bunch of unmoderated, Onlyfans promoting reels. Thanks.
