Ask HN: Those making $0/month or less on side projects – Show and tell
https://github.com/mltony/blind-compass
I am blind and I developed this auditory compass for blind people that communicates your heading as two tones - musical interval between them encodes your heading. It helps white cane users not to get confused in space or walk straight across large open space by locking heading. It also makes me look like a lunatic, because I put iPhone into phone holder that I sawn to my hat to provide most accurate heading information.
The app is free, but I have to pay for Apple Developer subscription to keep the app in the app store.

Ask HN: Those making $0/month or less on side projects – Show and tell
I haven't touched it in years, but during grad school I created a fully operational browser-based app for integrated note-taking and reference management for academic projects, based on locally stored markdown files, and designed to minimize attentional breaks: https://github.com/rkp8000/hypothesize .
I ended up using it for the remainder of my PhD; however, it was unfortunately a bit too easy to accidentally delete an entire note document, and I never got around to fixing it (although at least one other person ended up using it as the primary tool for their grad studies also :) ).
It definitely earned me no more than $0/month.

Ask HN: Show me your Half Baked project
https://github.com/rkp8000/hypothesize
In grad school I made a browser-based app in django to try to integrate note-taking and reference management as seamlessly as possible, having been fairly disappointed with existing software. Basically, it's kind of wiki-like, except links open in place by default so you don't lose your place jumping between pages.
I got it working well enough to use for the entirety of my PhD but don't really use it anymore just because it's still fairly clunky in certain ways.
I have zero time to continue working on it, but I do still kind of like the idea and would be thrilled if someone else picked it up!
