Show HN: Cygnal: Cygwin Native Application Library https://bit.ly/41NMZy4

Show HN: Cygnal: Cygwin Native Application Library Cygnal provides a forked CYGWIN1.DLL which bends some of the semantics toward native Windows behaviors, turning Cygwin into a run-time library for Windows programs. Not only is this useful for porting programs from Unix-like platforms to Windows as native applications, but Windows programs can be developed which take advantage of not only Windows APIs, but the Cygwin build environment and POSIX run-time. https://bit.ly/3H87hZz January 6, 2024 at 06:55AM

Show HN: Hashmap.me – Simple HTTP-Based Data Storage and Retrieval https://bit.ly/3RR1eh6

Show HN: Hashmap.me – Simple HTTP-Based Data Storage and Retrieval I'm excited to share Hashmap.me, a small tool I've built to simplify data storage and retrieval. It's a straightforward service that allows developers to store data records via HTTP requests and retrieve them easily, all without the hassle of setting up and managing a database. Initially I built this because I was tired of creating a database to prototype my own projects, I just wanted to persist my in memory cache between restarts early on. Each hashmap you create corresponds to its own collection in MongoDB. Perfect for small projects, quick prototypes, or learning purposes. I'd love to get your feedback and hear your thoughts! Check it out here: https://bit.ly/3S7if7P Thanks for taking a look! https://bit.ly/3S7if7P January 6, 2024 at 02:12AM

Show HN: Fitlock – Block apps until you reach your daily fitness/health goals https://bit.ly/3RPpLmr

Show HN: Fitlock – Block apps until you reach your daily fitness/health goals Introducing Fitlock, the privacy-focused app designed to empower users in curbing screen time and enhancing fitness through the utilisation of Apple Health and Screen Time features. Fitlock's innovative approach involves blocking apps and websites until users achieve their daily health and fitness objectives. Here's how Fitlock operates: users can establish a personalised schedule to block specific apps at chosen times of the day, adjusting the strictness level of the block to suit their preferences. Once the user's schedule is active, the blocked apps remain inaccessible until they successfully meet their health and fitness goals. For instance, a user might set up a schedule to restrict social media apps daily, unlocking them only for 30 minutes each time they reach 2000 steps within the specified timeframe. Beyond its core functionality, Fitlock boasts additional features like progress tracking over time and a range of strictness levels to cater to diverse user preferences. It's worth noting that Fitlock is currently exclusive to iOS, but stay tuned as there are plans to develop an Android version in the near future. I'd love to hear your questions/feedback. https://bit.ly/41KRDNp January 5, 2024 at 11:42PM

Show HN: Demo of Oracle Database + Oracle Linux + macOS UTM QEMU https://bit.ly/3H2PpiC This is a quick demonstration tutorial of how to set up Oracle Database on Oracle Linux on macOS on Arm, by using UTM on QEMU. This is intended for local development, such as on a MacBook Pro M1/M2/M3 with enough memory and storage. There are other approaches for Oracle software, such as containers, cloud infrastructure, etc. I intend to try some of these next. Feedback welcome and appreciated. January 3, 2024 at 03:19AM

Show HN: Chomp Game built in React.js https://bit.ly/3vewgrq

Show HN: Chomp Game built in React.js I built a game called Chomp, which sparked my interest back in college when I learned about it in a game theory context. It's a 2-player game, where you take turns biting chunks of chocolate off of a chocolate bar, avoiding a special 'poison' square. Whoever chomps the poison square, loses. I’m learning React / web development and was inspired to create a playable online version as my first React app. And my first Show HN post! Currently you control both Player 1 and Player 2. I imagine a future version where you are Player 1, playing against an AI that controls Player 2. Some more about Chomp: -It is proven that a winning strategy exists for Player 1, regardless of the starting dimensions of the chocolate bar (other than the trivial 1x1 case). -HOWEVER, there is no known winning strategy that works for all starting dimensions. Only for some special cases, like a square NxN chocolate bar. -Computers can of course simulate all possible games and see which ones result in Player 1 winning, but there's no clear step-by-step procedure one could follow in practice (unlike tic-tac-toe, for example). -So if you play around and happen upon a general winning strategy for Player 1, you may have made a mathematical discovery! -Here's the wiki for more info/background on the Chomp game: https://bit.ly/3S6aNdr https://bit.ly/3S3EUCd January 3, 2024 at 01:56AM

Show HN: Rebook.me. Rebook your hotel at lowest rate poss (or upgrade for free) We're launching a new service based on the industry tactic of 'Yield Optimization'. This is where your travel agent will monitor the rates of your booked room and secretly rebook when the rate drops, pocketing the profit. Instead now you can benefit. We monitor your hotel rate after booking and help you rebook when it drops. We also monitor upgraded rooms for the same/less than your original rate. https://bit.ly/41GHYHz January 3, 2024 at 12:35AM

Show HN: Hook – a simple graphical C/C++ runtime editor https://bit.ly/3S2aa4k

Show HN: Hook – a simple graphical C/C++ runtime editor While helping one of my students create and iterate on a game in C using raylib, I realized there was quite a lot of time spent on experimenting with level design and colors, how the player moves, gravity, etc. and a lot of time was wasted making a change, exiting the game, recompiling, running the game, deciding his change wasn't right, and going through the whole cycle over and over. I could tell it was demotivating, and this process was creating a barrier that prevented him from experimenting to his heart's content. I started this project to solve this problem by giving a simple gui to a few core features of lldb through the lldb api. Experimenting with changing colors, where blocks in the level go, how tall the player is, gravity is all now just a simple toggle or text field edit. The variables are modifiable while the program is running. The project is still in its early stages, and so far only targets macOS. https://bit.ly/3S4NzEx January 2, 2024 at 02:15AM
