Life Goes On!<p>A game, built in Unity, about sacrificing knights and using their dead bodies to solve puzzles.<p><a href="http://i.imgur.com/qeuo84C.jpg" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;qeuo84C.jpg</a><p><a href="http://i.imgur.com/g1oFM31.jpg" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;g1oFM31.jpg</a><p><a href="http://i.imgur.com/7PoX6th.jpg" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;7PoX6th.jpg</a><p>This game started at a game jam two years ago. It became an evening and weekends hobby, then it became a full commercial release, and we just launched on steam. (<a href="http://store.steampowered.com/app/250050/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;store.steampowered.com&#x2F;app&#x2F;250050&#x2F;</a>)<p>I thought that after the game launched I would have some time to relax. But support, bug fixes, responding to media requests, and planning next steps has kept me very busy.<p><a href="http://www.LifeGoesOnGame.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.LifeGoesOnGame.com</a>

In early March I whipped up <a href="http://Listen2EDM.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;Listen2EDM.com</a> because I was tired of searching for new music manually through SoundCloud, GrooveShark&#x2F;Spotify still sort of required discovery, and Pandora just didn&#x27;t fit my personal pain-point.<p>While social media stats are meek, it&#x27;s averaging about 32000 minutes played back each day (~400 uniques&#x2F;day; ~2000&#x2F;week). This has motivated me to develop it further and make the UI a bit more friendly, as well as features. The current iteration is <a href="http://i.imgur.com/Y6uNgkC.png" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;Y6uNgkC.png</a>

Grading programming assignments of students takes so much time because of preparing files, environments, viewing code, multipe outputs etc. Besides my research, I developed this Docker based web application, where assignments are Dockerfile + run script + required&#x2F;supplied&#x2F;output files.<p>Main motivation: I can grade ~80 student projects in at most 1 hour, even looking at code besides their output. It took almost 2 days before, and repetitive tasks made me lose my mind. It keeps me sane, and saves me tremendous time. <a href="http://pags.cs.bilkent.edu.tr" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;pags.cs.bilkent.edu.tr</a>

My WebKit hack from two years ago that splits the rendering area into N joined columns, such that you scroll content Up-&gt;Down-&gt;Left-&gt;Right.<p><a href="https://vimeo.com/59463521" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;vimeo.com&#x2F;59463521</a><p>The intuition was that screens are almost all wide-screen, but content is all narrow, due to readability. This was an attempt to add a mode to browsers that can let you use more of your screen real estate.<p>I have a draft of a blog post from a year ago explaining my reasoning and a diff of the hack, but I kept putting it off. If people are interested, I&#x27;ll port it to Blink and write something up about this.

My first $6k mistake! Which I have done my best to make sure will never happen again.

All: it&#x27;s not clear yet whether we should have &quot;Screenshot Saturday&quot; and &quot;Idea Sunday&quot; as regular features, or whether they should be weekly if we do. Happy to hear arguments pro and con, though perhaps not in this thread. (Edit: On second thought, we might as well discuss it here and keep it at the bottom.)<p>If are going to have these regularly, we&#x27;ll ask the whoishiring account to post them automatically. That&#x27;s the only account currently allowed to make bot submissions, and it seems better to extend an existing system than create a new one.<p>In the meantime, we changed both the title and the text of this submission to be closer to previous editions.

It was mostly born out of frustrations with Civ 5&#x27;s slow and buggy multiplayer mode.<p>The server is based on Scala &amp; Akka, the client is plain JavaScript and WebGL&#x2F;ThreeJS.

I wrote it because I constantly forget to log my tax deductible trips, and at the time couldn&#x27;t find anything that worked well without requiring me to do a few minutes of work after every drive. This week (mostly today, really) I&#x27;ve been working on custom tax system support for international users since a bunch of users are looking for it, plus a bunch of minor bug fixes (ugh):<p><a href="https://i.imgur.com/sXec0dm.png" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;sXec0dm.png</a> <a href="https://i.imgur.com/7330lr3.png" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;7330lr3.png</a><p>As an aside, I would kill for iOS to have a static maps API like Google does.

<a href="http://imgur.com/qc0zTnJ" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;imgur.com&#x2F;qc0zTnJ</a><p>I&#x27;ve spent a few hours today dealing with the fallout from the landing page we launched a few months ago. The landing page is for the cloud-based calculator app builder Calcapp Creator that we&#x27;re hoping will replace Excel for a good many use cases. (Build a calculator app using the service and have it generate apps for iOS, Android, desktop computers and the web.)<p>I do customer development by responding to every sign-up and asking people their precise requirements. That invariably leads to people sending me obfuscated Excel calculators, which I then analyze. A couple of months ago, I spent a lot of time having lunch with businesses interested in our service, now I mostly interact with people that have found the landing page. That thankfully leaves more time for product development.<p>I spent the rest of the day playing with the browser-based app builder -- which is implemented using AngularJS -- and on modifying our custom compiler (which produces the apps) to accept JSON data from the app builder.

Neat. I just posted on reddit so I guess I&#x27;ll just grab the same text.<p>-----------<p>This is still an expense tracker &quot;Spendy&quot;.<p>- Multiple currencies are handled smooth. You have one main currency but you can add multiple others and set up exchange rates for them. You can add expenses&#x2F;incomes for them in any currency and in the log-view it will automatically show you both the entered currency and a smaller converted amount in your main currency. Perfect for travellers.<p>- Easy, quick. Non verbose UI.<p>- Data will not be locked in in any way. Dropbox sync, email data in CSV etc.<p>- Pretty? Color theme can be changed.<p>- Basic basic basic charts for now. 14 days overview is implemented. Will do more later.<p>-----------<p>So I&#x27;ve worked a bit more on the app and I thought I&#x27;d put it here again. This is the previous version: <a href="http://i.imgur.com/L54TV4O.jpg" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;L54TV4O.jpg</a><p>And this is the new one: <a href="http://imgur.com/EtcpEqp" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;imgur.com&#x2F;EtcpEqp</a> (excuse the layout and&#x2F;or the large res)<p>I&#x27;ll see if I can sum up the changes:<p>- Changed color to green, although I&#x27;ve made the color-theme chooseable by the user (see the bottom). The color theme is on the buttons, the &quot;tints&quot; (such as some text colors and etc).<p>- Made the Money log entries bigger&#x2F;more space.<p>- Less stuff in the menu.<p>- Added a &quot;settings&quot; panel.<p>- Chart is now colored and includes both incomes and expenses.<p>- Before I had alertviews for lots of things. This has been replaces by inline buttons (see: delete&#x2F;edit). These are also affected by the users chosen color btw.<p>- The tag-view is still bare-bones, but centered and alternating row-colors.<p>- The Currency-view is completely remade, see the bottom for how it looks. I tried to make &quot;more&quot; out of virtually no info and I do think it worked pretty well.<p>Any feedback is welcome!<p>-------<p>And a short GIF of the app in action. <a href="http://imgur.com/PFnRae7" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;imgur.com&#x2F;PFnRae7</a><p>-------<p>EDIT: Format.

Side project: refactoring an IRC bot I&#x27;m writing after hours for fun (both mine and of our local hackerspace).<p><a href="http://i.imgur.com/nAGkbF3.png" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;nAGkbF3.png</a><p>The bot is written in Common Lisp and it&#x27;s intention is to pretend to be human (i.e. parse natural-language requests instead of typical commands) while still providing useful functions for the channels it sits in. By &quot;pretending to be human&quot; I mean that I&#x27;m trying to add some personality and emotional model (yet to be done) to the program. It&#x27;s a playground to test my ideas of creating programs that you can relate emotionally to, as well as some basic machine learning stuff. The &quot;personality&quot; of the bot is based on Alice Margatroid from Touhou Project series.<p>Currently working code at <a href="https://github.com/TeMPOraL/alice" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;TeMPOraL&#x2F;alice</a>.

It would seem that showing some working, fun project is a good way to get people interested in the language :).

A web application for my Computer Science dissertation (I&#x27;m writing up the report at the moment).<p>The idea was to produce a web app that you upload your bank statements to, the system categorises the transactions and then predicts how much money you will spend in each category next month.<p>Underneath the system is using machine learning techniques to model the spending, deciding whether or not a particular transaction will occur and triple exponential smoothing to predict how much would be spent.<p>Screenshot of the homepage (fake data): <a href="http://i.imgur.com/Tr05dfd.png" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;Tr05dfd.png</a><p>I&#x27;m currently seeking research participants if any UK based (not tested with non UK data) users would like to give it a try: <a href="http://secure.pezcuckow.com/register" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;secure.pezcuckow.com&#x2F;register</a>.
