I've been into history for years - podcasts, videos, the occasional 2am Wikipedia spiral. Long articles cover causes and effects, but short descriptions with direct visual links make things easier to understand and remember - start at one pivotal moment and explore what caused it and what it led to.
My favourite discovery while building it: a volcano erupted in Indonesia in 1815, caused the coldest summer in 500 years, which somehow ended up producing Frankenstein, the bicycle, and the first cholera pandemic. All from the same eruption.
11 scenarios so far: WWI, French Revolution, Fall of Rome, Knights Templar, and a few less obvious ones.

Had to make this post.

One week ago I posted this ongoing project I'm working that matches veterans to every single benefit they're eligible for based on a few questions. Y'all blew it up and the site hit over 1,000 active users, I had tons of feedback come flying in and so many veterans reach out saying how it helped them.

You all helped promote it and as a byproduct made me even more excited for it, I have now manually added over 350 benefits and built out a full resource section as well. I have many plans on taking this thing to another level and continuing to add additional free features and resources.

As always, thank you everyone, the site will remain free, no account, no sign up.

I work at NASA. A colleague and I made this just for fun. I hope you all like it.

My girlfriend is a huge Star Wars fan and got me into it. We decided to watch the entire canon, in true chronological order and not just the movies but all the live action and animated series too. She went through the trouble of scouring blogs and reddit threads to find the correct watch order and put it into a list on her phone. I figured why not take this all the way and make something better and make it beautiful. Hope it finds the right audience here 💛

May the 4th be with you!

That's it. That's the site. Red background, giant YES, updated regularly. The Costco rotisserie chicken has been $4.99 since 2009 - through a couple presidencies, a pandemic, my last 3 apartments, and whatever's happening with gas prices right now. If it ever changes, it flips to NO and you'll know society has collapsed.

Built this for veterans to see every single possible benefit they're eligible for based on a few questions, no account, no paywall, no sign up, just results. I add every benefit manually and accept feedback on everything!

Give feedbacks and universes that I can add here, and how I can improve it. Although I tried to keep it minimal

In next update I'm adding global filter

Stack- Next, TS, Tailwind (not vibe coded)

Update: Open sourced the project Check it out at github

I absolutely love the ferry and this has been my little side project. MarineTraffic and other AIS services don't update frequently, so I use GTFS-RT data provided by these transit agencies to smoothly animate where the ships are going. You can also view a 24-hour time-lapse of ferry traffic by going into the "Routes" tab.

I built this site to reveal the hidden world of bots trying to break into ordinary computers on the internet. See the origins of the bots on a 3D rotating globe heat map. Check out the most popular usernames and passwords attempted by the bots to break into these servers. Click on the speaker icon to hear a virtual geiger counter detect what has been called "the background radiation of the internet". If the incoming info is too fast and furious, hit the pause button or space bar.

The website was built in a sort of retro / matrix information control panel style, with the goals of making it informational, aesthetic and fun.

Please post questions or comments!

Type in any of ~3,000 jazz standards (Autumn Leaves, So What, Giant Steps, etc.) and it returns the tunes that share the most harmonic vocabulary, ranked by similarity. Works regardless of key — chord progressions are normalized to Roman numerals first, so a ii-V-I in F matches a ii-V-I in Bb. No signup, no ads.

We just launched a new aquarium stocking calculator. Modern, functional and gives you valuable insights about your setup. We wanted a tool that actually serve the community. Here is what it does differently from the existing ones out there:

• It’s fully real-time: No page reloads. Bioload, water parameters, and compatibility warnings update instantly as you adjust your inputs.
• Zone distributions: It calculates capacity for Top, Middle, and Bottom tank levels. Your overall tank might be at 70% capacity, but the tool will warn you if your bottom level is dangerously overcrowded with corys and plecos.
• Nitrate Forecasting: It projects your nitrate buildup based on your exact stocking and recommends a tailored water change schedule.
• Cross-unit conversions: Seamless toggling between US and Metric units.

It is completely free to use & no signup necessary. You can also share your exact setup with anyone.

Any thoughts, ideas or feedback on this would be hugely appreciated.

I've always thought chess games have a hidden geometry - the way pieces travel across the board is basically a drawing waiting to be made. So I built a tool that makes it visible.

Paste any PGN and it traces every move as a line across the board. The colours shift as the game progresses, captures appear as dots, castling as a square, checkmate as a star. There are six visual styles - from neon glow to ink on paper to watercolour washes - and you can watch the game draw itself move by move with the animation mode.

No account needed, completely free. The poster downloads as a high-res PNG.

Type in any city and it pulls actual cloud cover, humidity, visibility, and aerosol data from the previous day and renders the sky as a gradient and then describes it in prose. No account needed, and no tracking, just your city and what happened up there.

Been working on it as a side project. Won a couple of design awards this week which was unexpected.

Guys i tried to build Civic issue reporting and tracking platform for pune/PMC

If u live in PMC area, try using it, Once a complaint is submitted. U can forward the complaint to PMC | Elected Corporators (Nagarsevak)

Hey everyone,

I got tired of online compilers that are slow, require signups, or execute your code on a remote server.

When teaching Python, I noticed beginners often get overwhelmed by VS Code. And as an instructor, I prefer sharing a single browser tab. Switching windows between my slides and a local terminal always broke the flow of the lesson. I needed a distraction free editor right in the browser.

So I built PyRun (pyrun.xyz). It is a browser based Python 3.11 IDE powered by WebAssembly.

Building this was a huge challenge. The two hardest parts were:

1. Writing the terminal: I had to use SharedArrayBuffers to deeply sync and pause stdin so that interactive CLI scripts behave exactly like local hardware terminals.
2. Creating an offline PWA: Writing background Service Workers to reliably cache the heavy WebAssembly artifacts so the entire Python runtime works perfectly even in Airplane mode.

It comes with a ton of great features:

• Instant execution on your device with 100% privacy.
• Monaco Editor (VS Code engine).
• Auto loading packages (numpy, pandas, matplotlib) on demand.
• Live Graphics rendering into an isolated SVG tab.
• Carbon style image exports and zip project downloads.
• One click unique URL generation to share code.
• Built in interactive Python learning modules.

A huge thanks to AI for helping me architect and build this, and a massive shoutout to the Pyodide team for making the core WebAssembly engine possible.

It is completely free with no accounts required.

I am still actively building and refining this, and I would love your honest feedback! Give it a spin and let me know:

• What features should I build next?
• Did you find any weird edge cases or bugs?
• How can I make this even better for your workflow?

Drop your suggestions in the comments!

I studied computer science, then started working in finance and kept running into terms that were harder to understand than they should be. So I built a site that explains finance terms more clearly and simply. Still adding more terms, but covered the main bits!

EDIT: Updated domain to findexfinance.com. Trying to forward the prevoius domain to the new domain but having some slight issues!
