I reached the bottom of the page without getting a good understanding of what Unleash is. Is it something that deploys applications ? Something that pushes settings to applications ? Something that applications pull settings from ? An agent that runs on servers ? A load balancer (or API gateway) ?
My stock discovery algo[0] averaged 21% daily increase last month and we're launching in a couple of weeks.
Post launch we're going to be working on buying/selling alerts to save people from having to watch charts all day (which I do, but I enjoy it). Also a few more features we're looking at, such as crypto analysis. But with the current bear market, I'm less enthused that it's a worthwhile avenue currently.
Don't get me wrong, I still believe there is money to be made in crypto. Stocks are different in that there is obviously many different industries and therefore many different reasons to get excited, for example Feetr has been into pharma stocks as of late and I speculate that to be the result of Covid increases in China. Crypto is a bit more homogeneous and if people are currently not enthused by the core concept, I don't know that there will be much new money.
However we'll be in a position to capitalise on the next bull market, that's for sure.
I'm interested in knowing if you'll have an API at some point. I'd love to integrate this with LogicTrader (https://logictrader.xyz), which is crypto only for now but can be expanded to stocks too.
Yes, absolutely planning an API. It'll most likely come after the alerts. Planned functionality is still an ongoing discussion so people like yourself will be instrumental in those conversations I assume.
We are building an early childhood literacy app focused on explicitly and systematically teaching the skills of reading (e.g., phonological awareness, decoding, and sight recognition.) The mission is to democratize access to evidence-based instruction and raise the percentage of proficient US 4th grade readers from 33% [1] to an estimated 94% [2][3].
If anyone is interested in collaborating, please reach out. I am especially looking for experts in sales and marketing.

My old video game from 2004 [1] is now older than I was when I wrote it, and I recently found the C++ source and sprites in one of my archives, so I'm rewriting it in TypeScript as a personal challenge.
The C++ code no longer builds (it's missing proprietary dependencies), and I no longer have the binaries or even the hardware needed to run them (it's a PocketPC game).
If I manage to finish the rewrite, I'll get in touch with the rest of the team, to ask if they'll let me upload it somewhere public.
So far, I'm surprised by how readable my C++ code is. :-)
I've still got my Dell X50V stored away somewhere, if you find the binaries you're invited to contact me. My Gmail username is the same as my HN username.
I'm working on NoisyCamp (https://noisycamp.com), a platform that helps Musicians finding and booking spaces to rehearse.
I mostly implemented all the features I wanted, and I'm now focusing on getting more studios on the platform.
I'm still working part time, and as a software engineer, it's a little bit harder to get motivated doing sales things than it was when programming the web app.
I'm continuing to work on https://github.com/zbm-dev/zfsbootmenu . Support for Debian's initramfs-tools, more install guides for distributions, better documentation.
I would like to propose a mobile voting platform for the annual parade in my village in September. It's still work in progress, but it's seems that the organizers are interested.
And also learning two very promising technologies like eBPF and Zig.
I'll continue working on my open source crm iceburg.ca I just added an admin builder, image/video fields and a workflow feature.
We'll see what the next year brings.
It's a common misspelling in Canada which allowed me pickup the domain name. I didn't realize it when I purchased the name many years ago. When I was trying out a few domain names in google this name is the one name that didn't seem to exist as a crm.
I'm going to be working on a personal itch problem. I first spotted the problem about 20 years ago. I solved it as a brute force manual screen scrape 15 and 10 years ago. I tried to solve it programatically 5 years ago, learnt lots but ultimately went round in circles on scaling an approach.
I'm now excited to be playing with Arquero [1] and Uber H3 [2] and hopefully I'll scratch the itch and release something!
The first thing I thought of when reading the code for h3 was "I wonder if you could use this to build a Fallout-esque hex layouts for games".
I wonder if the lat/lng to hexes would work well for screen coordinates and the zooming aspect could introduce some interesting UI elements. Purely speculative though, I should probably read the docs in more detail.
Overall theme: Improving my language skills. My hypothesis is that language is the closest we have to a (lossy) codec for thought. By becoming more cognizant of higher-level concepts and the differences between them, we can reason more effectively and improve our thought and communication processes.
2. Continue refining the precision of my vocabulary and my understanding of the etymology of words. I've realized that I only have a fuzzy grasp of many of the words I use on an everyday basis, yet by becoming more aware of the nuances and subtleties of the usage, origin, and connotations of different terms, I will be able to express myself more accurately and also perhaps better be able to read between the lines of what others say and write.
For example, consider the following definitions:
Compound: composed of two or more separate elements; a mixture.
Complex: consisting of many different and connected parts.
Consequently, a set of buildings which share the same property but are unconnected (for example a mobile home community, or standalone military barracks buildings) should be referred to as a compound. In contrast, if the structure has bridges between the different parts, it should be called a complex.
Also consider:
Sophisticated: (of a machine, system, or technique) developed to a high degree of complexity.
Complicated: consisting of many interconnecting parts or elements, often involving many different and confusing aspects
(from Latin complicat- "folded together", from the verb complicare, from com- "together" + plicare "to fold")
An automobile is a very complex machine, since it consists of thousands of parts and systems. To a mechanic, it might be complicated (as reflected by manuals which are hundreds or thousands of pages long and hours of frustration), while to a user it is sophisticated - capable of doing many things, and yet still easy to use, since the complexity is abstracted away.
These 4 words are seemingly very closely related, yet through careful word selection, we can use them to communicate very different ideas and emotions.
It started as a thing around BBQ as I have a small indoor infrared grill (all my friends have small places too).
Will also do other stuff like Mexican chili, bring your own steak and grill it etc. People bring drinks and snacks or dishes.
What inspired me.. My friend used to do it a few years back and somehow I realized it let's me become a social hub, have people invite their friends so I keep in touch with and make new friends.
I'm going to piggyback on this, as my wife and I were just talking about making Fridays "Pizza Night" at our house. We love cooking together, and we've got a long-running-but-stale love of making sourdough pizza from scratch and doing it all up with the kids. It's intense, but scales reasonably as long as you get a head-count a few days out. We're so looking forward to sitting down with friends around our table again.
I'm trying to do something musical every day, doesn't matter what it is. Two days down. So far I've just been sitting at the piano playing through lead sheets of songs I've written and some jazz standards.
Happy Jamuary! I think this is so great! I'm trying to do produce a musical artifact each day this month. I'm hoping it helps with my bad habit of never finishing songs :)
I am pitching my friend who just had a wonderfully successful exit to invest in my hotel abroad. It’s a super country with a big tourism economy and inexpensive labor. I have a local friend who knows the business, fingers crossed.
Turkey. On the coast in a small resort town. 200k per key with 15 rooms.
I have no prior experience but what I do have is a business plan and a local partner. I’m networking with people who are in hospitality and working with a consultant to assist with due diligence. I’m moving there to supervise operations.
Working on making big geospatial data (from sources like NASA, ECMWF) really easy to work with through a simple API that integrates with common tools in python/R. Would love to help ppl focus on answering really interesting questions (e.g. impacts of climate change, energy load forecasting, food security), without needing to be experts in geospatial data engineering! https://www.pharossoftware.com/
Hey, thanks! The data we connect to is open-source but the ETL and connectors itself (which is the actual service) is not. In the future, there are a few things we'd love to release as open-source packages, but we're just not there yet.
What kind of data/sources do you work with mainly? Would love to learn more
For work: flexible artificial muscle actuators for use in prosthetics.
For personal use: a workout app that automatically plays high energy music during a workout set and downbeat music while resting between sets. The right music really helps me workout more effectively.

Best of luck with the company!
There are quite a few modules I'd like to see... and smarter bridges for inventory management

1. Get back into the habit of writing and reviewing evergreen notes (https://notes.andymatuschak.org/Evergreen_notes, An Executable Strategy for Writing: https://notes.andymatuschak.org/z3PBVkZ2SvsAgFXkjHsycBeyS6Cw...) and refining my Zettelkasten knowledgebase and perhaps making it publicly available at some point.

Looking it up, it seems like that Greek root acquired a few different meanings or connotations in Late Latin.
