24 alternatives to A Simple Server to Match Long/Lat to a TimeZone
I figured this might be useful to folks. It's a simple PHP server that requires a single-table database (It's fairly "agnostic," but all my uses are in MySQL). I won't publish any of the servers that I've set up for my apps, because someone is bound to write an application that drives my bandwidth into the stratosphere. I could definitely take it further, but this gives me all I need for my purposes. Here's an app I wrote, that uses it: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/we-are-never-alone/id650482602...
This is a simple PHP server that converts geographic coordinates (longitude and latitude) into corresponding time zones. It uses a single-table database, primarily MySQL, and is designed for developers building… Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes.

Hey HN. I made a micro site one recent evening to see upcoming (and recent past) timezone transitions. At my job, we have some timezone specific code where we often see spikes in metrics due to random timezone shifts around the world. Just for fun, I wanted a way to easily see where and what this timezone shift might have been, so built this mini site to do so. Its fully clientside and works by making use of the Internationalization API, so if you need an API for this you're coming to the wrong place, but feel free to yoink the code. Its just one fat index.html file. Served off my VPS via…

Hi HN! Today I'm launching OpenTimes, a free database of roughly 150 billion pre-computed, point-to-point travel times between United States Census geographies. In addition to letting you visualize travel isochrones on the homepage, OpenTimes also lets you download massive amounts of travel time data for free and with no limits. The primary goal here is to enable research and fill a gap I noticed in the open-source spatial ecosystem. Researchers (social scientists, economists, etc.) use large travel time matrices to quantify things like access to healthcare, but they often end up paying…

Hey! I'm a solo developer having fun learning Go. I have a side hustle and wanted to implement currency localization. I could use existing IP databases, but hosting on serverless is slow. So I built my own. I was surprised how fun it can be to use Go, and it's fast. Thankfully, Go's speed makes up for my dodgy code. Anyway, I'd love to get some feedback on my website/API. After a few weeks of testing and losing money on ads, I'm confident it's very reliable. This isn't a promo. It's basicly free (30k lookups/month), so there's no need to pay. Any advice or tips on how to grow and…
