Products that do what Kalvir Clock does
I've been working on new mind psychology visualizations of time and have created a unique clock to work in the background of my iterm2 transparent vim that has been really helping me focus my mind on complex code, notes, thinking. So have published it for free, it's a one page app, so you can easily copy the HTML code and host it yourself. It's your unique clock for your minds eye.

Hi HN, I have been working on a new tool that was inspired by Vannevar Bush's memex and Luhmann's Zettelkasten. Having been a long time user of different tools, I got to the point where I decided to build my own. For the longest time I have been looking for something that puts association first, works as fast as the mind, and allows you to stay in flow state. Making building a second mind, playful and rewarding. If anyone is interested, I have added the link below. At this point I am slowly letting on the first users, and hoping to gather as much feedback as possible. The explore link on the…

Inspired by the following post by photon_off... http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1683309 I made karmurl last night. It's a simple app where you submit a URL for feedback, then for every piece of feedback you give to someone else's, you get to read one piece of feedback for yours. http://karmurl.com

I got the idea of [mindmap.so](http://mindmap.so/) out of my own frustration of managing my personal notes in Notion and Miro in parallel. I have built it 3 months back on top of excalidraw, posted it in Reddit a couple of times, and never looked back (was using it only for personal use). Little did I know that the small and nimble tool that I created has crossed 2000+ users (was so surprised when I saw the dashboard last week). It was all organic and word of mouth . Having 2000+ users trusting a product is no easy feat. That’s when I thought may be I should put some more…

I really struggle to keep my notes organised, and often can't make any sense of hand written notes after meetings. I did some experiments with Claude and ChatGPT where I blast random thoughts at them during a meeting or brainstorming session and then have them output a nice document that pulls it all together at the end. It worked incredibly well but it was a bit cumbersome to keep sending messages to the chat and telling the ai each time what to do. So I took the idea and built a tool, it makes it easy to throw random notes and voice recordings (images and document support on the way) and…

Since I went remote(working) last year, I found it hard to track my work/focus hours. To begin with, I started with my mobile stopwatch but found it to be inefficient and distracting. I then tried some time management tools online but they were geared towards enterprises than individuals. Plus, had too many features. So, last weekend I created https://www.timemygrind.com/ - a simple focus time tracking tool that requires no login, no internet and has no ads. Once you finish your work, it shows the times in the table below. I usually pause when I take a break or go out for…

Hey everyone, I made another bedside clock, because my last one was getting a bit long in the tooth. This is a very straightforward build, because it turned out you don't need to mess with the AliExpress-bought hardware, so you can easily make your own!

Hi HN, I’ve struggled with anxiety and procrastination for most of my life, feeling overwhelmed and stuck in cycles of stress. A few weeks ago, I decided to channel this experience into something meaningful: TheInnerAlien.co. It’s a platform designed to help people like me manage anxiety and time overwhelm through structured tools, personalized systems, and a supportive community. It’s still early, but I’m excited to share it and hear what you think. Here’s the link: http://www.theinneralien.co I’d love your feedback or ideas on how to improve it. Thanks for taking a look!
