what minor tech projects do you absolutely adore?
Shameless self plug: handWavey is a tool that I wrote to control your computer using a leap motion controller. I've put a lot of time into making it practical for real world desktop usage as well as some underserved accessibility use-cases, and I absolutely love it. And I still have a lot more that I want to do with it. You can see handWavey in action here.

Accessible Keyboards for Coding?
Have you played with any leapmotion based solutions? I wrote handWavey which gives you the ability to control the mouse and keyboard by moving your hands like in minority report. There's also a foot gestureLayout, which is highly experimental, and not ready for daily use, but might give you ideas.
-
Let's talk open source promotion - what works, what doesn't work?
I'm really interested in this as well. I think I'm missing a lot of opportunities. Like a few months ago, I released handWavey, which I think is fricken cool I posted it in a small number of places, and then just continued to work on it quietly.

A gesture interface for controlling the mouse, and a little keyboard.
hands/arms don't work? Try the foot gestureLayout. (This layout is a proof-of-concept, and is highly experimental. I don't recommend it, for now, but it shows what can be done if there is interest from people who would benefit from it.)
-
Another input method, that works particularly well with shaky hands, or a lack of fine control
The important thing is that the gestures are completely configurable. And everything assumption/"that seems right" is configurable. I've gone into more detail about this in the main video. I've also provided some examples and documentation. You'll see that I've even made a gestureLayout for operating it entirely with your feet. I don't recommend it (it needs much more development, which could happen if there is interest), but it works. With that gestureLayout, I've make the left click happen by simply moving your primary foot through to the "action zone". But you can add your secondary foot to perform a right click, middle click, or scroll.

Fig Is Sunsetting
Having contributed to the Fig autocomplete specs, I find this sad. The Amazon product Fig was built into basically works as replacement, which is good. Still, the core value of this product are the open-source autocomplete specs: https://github.com/withfig/autocomplete. What's going to happen to that? It looks like they are still using it in the Amazon product. It should definitely be possible for an open-source re-implementation of the Fig UI to use those specs. There is a lot of knowledge encoded in there!

Ask HN: Alternatives to fig.io as it has signups disabled?
Fig is awesome but with signups blocked[1] for 2+mo already it's also as good as dead ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

AWS CloudWatch Evidently The worst. No comment. AWS seems to perpetually lack a good DX for developers. It appears that they don't recognize or continually undervalue the importance of roles other than engineers, such as Product Managers or Designers. Very disappointing. However, AWS has recently acquired Fig, so looks like they're now pursuing an acquisition strategy instead. Let's see how it turns it out, and let's hope they don't ruin Fig, since it's such an useful tool.

Ask HN: What are some well-designed websites?
slightly tangential, but where do people get awesome landing pages like linear(https://fig.io/. has similar landing page) etc. Do they build them in-house or buy templates somewhere? Many of the recently launched YC companies have awesome landing pages. eg. https://automorphic.ai/,

Fig Has Joined AWS
I love this product, have contributed several times to it, and I'm a little torn. One thing I am thinking about now, is that the completion specs are MIT-licensed, and it should be possible to use them to re-implement a basic open-source version of the autocompletion product... https://github.com/withfig/autocomplete
