No “just one more minute”. You either finish the session or you fail it. Built for people who need real constraints, not motivation quotes.

A hardware-level app blocker using Apple Screen Time API. Lock Instagram, TikTok, and games at the system level. Features zero-bypass Hardcore Mode, parental PIN controls, and a cyber-tree garden.

    Hey HN, you may have seen me post about Lock In recently—it's a minimalist task management HUD that sits silently on your desktop. It gained some traction for its Mac version, and as of today, it's finally available for Windows. The idea remains the same: productivity apps are often click-heavy databases that feel like administrative work.

  • Hello my name is Ben Ward for the past 3 years I have been remastering the financial game Wall Street Raider created by Michael Jenkins originally on DOS in 1986. It has been a rough journey but I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just recently redid the website and thought maybe the full story of how this project came to be would interest you all. Thank you for reading.
