Ask HN: What is the most impactful thing you've ever built?
Some things I built on the side, outside of my day job:
In the late 90's, I sold a command-line SMTP e-mailer for Windows. It was easy enough for folks to integrate e-mail transmission into their systems ... even 16-bit systems since spawning a copy of the shell would allow 16-bit systems to invoke my 32-bit mailer. Lots of folks had used these tools for all sorts of things. I got registration checks and cash from around the world before I started taking credit card payments.
I have an open source command-line MP3 player for Windows that folks still use and incorporate into their systems, JS libraries for node.js, ...etc.

Some tiny personal programs I've written
I wrote a command-line MP3 player in C for Windows. I just wanted to play with the media manger API's, but I've ended up using this to play MP3's in succession via a script.
https://github.com/jimlawless/cmdmp3
It doesn't work on all versions of Windows ... it depends on some configuration elements. This has been used in another developer's video game and I believe it's installed with an MP3 player library in node.js ( if you're running node.js under Windows. ) It also plays WAV files on Windows 10 (possibly 11) if you pass the name of a WAV file into the command-line.
I needed a command-line emailer that would send an email with a very simple one-line body for my Mac. I also wanted to exercise Go's SMTP libraries while experimenting with trying to build a minimal emailer application.

I use this regularly. I used to use it on MacOS, but I use it more frequently on Windows.

New startup sells coffee through SSH and exclusively through SSH
Reminded me of Hacker Scripts, specifically `fucking-coffee`:
> this one waits exactly 17 seconds (!), then opens a telnet session to our coffee-machine (we had no frikin idea the coffee machine is on the network, runs linux and has a TCP socket up and running) and sends something like `sys brew`. Turns out this thing starts brewing a mid-sized half-caf latte and waits another 24 (!) seconds before pouring it into a cup. The timing is exactly how long it takes to walk to the machine from the dudes desk.

Cum va arăta Moldova peste 20 de ani?
India has hundreds of millions of English speakers, is it a stellar IT nation? It can only boast a dozen puppet top execs of Indian origins in US megacorps like Microsoft and Google. And a few hundred thousands of office drones on H-1B visas. Half of them probably already got used as ass wipes and fired during the post-pandemic mass layoffs. Are there so many reasonably known Indian programmers? If the ones working in IT companies may not be known due to NDAs and code being proprietary, they should have as many known contributors to free software. Where are they? Do you know many? I know ONLY ONE. All India is known for are mean memes like the one about Kumar the proverbial asshole. You can read more about it here if you're not familiar https://github.com/NARKOZ/hacker-scripts

Bill Gates said, "I will always choose a lazy person to do a difficult job because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it." What's a real-life example of this?
This story comes to mind. It could very well be made up, but someone else made those scripts inspired by the story.

I have slowly but surely automated nearly all of my ER and even "ER" tickets when I'm off with the exception of network down level scenarios.

Now that's what I call an hacker
This is the script used to talk to the coffee machine:

I wonder how many other devices talk telnet and have a weak password. Would be cool to have a database of such models.

Ask HN: Most interesting tech you built for just yourself?
This reminded me of this internet folklore: https://www.jitbit.com/alexblog/249-now-thats-what-i-call-a-...
There is also a recreation of the scripts at https://github.com/NARKOZ/hacker-scripts
