Hack Playground is a virtual world platform that recreates the experience of HackMIT, a large undergraduate hackathon, for remote participants.

The platform also includes appReader, an application management system that handles HackMIT's thousands of annual submissions by distributing applications to reviewers, tracking scores, and automating the admissions process.

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
