HumanAlarm – Real people knock on your door to wake you up
I built HumanAlarm because I'm a heavy sleeper who's missed important things despite multiple phone alarms. It's exactly what it sounds like - you book a wake-up time, we send someone to knock on your door for 2 minutes. If you don't answer, they wait 3-5 minutes and knock again. Simple as that. We're live in select cities. Would love feedback on the concept and execution!
In plain words
HumanAlarm sends a real person to knock on your door at a scheduled time to wake you up. After knocking for 2 minutes, if there's no answer, they wait 3-5 minutes and knock again. Designed for heavy sleepers who have overslept despite using phone alarms, the service is available in select cities. Users book a wake-up time through the service and rely on physical contact rather than digital alerts.

- WGWakeMyself. Get a wakeup call from your yesterday's self.2012 · ▲76
Hi guys, I built a site to solve a couple of my problems regarding sleep, and thought you guys might like it too. It's called WakeMyself, and here's the URL: http://www.wakemyself.com Have you ever overslept despite the alarm and wished "Damn, I wish I could go back in time and tell my stupid sleeping self to snap out of it." That's the basic idea behind WakeMyself. It lets you receive a wakeup call from your yesterday's self. Just leave a message, set an alarm, and you get a call from yesterday's self. Another problem I had: I really wanted to remember my dreams but always forget to…

I made a built-from scratch Wayland Compositor to display any GUI app* in the terminal! I think there is a lot of unexplored potential in custom Wayland compositors, a lot of really cool things you can embed existing applications into! So, I started with embedding apps into the terminal because that is the easiest input/output (output is just utf-8 and I use the great `chafa` library for that, and I just read from stdin for the input). If you have any other ideas for cool Wayland compositors, let me know. I purposedly wrote 80% the app in Typescript to appeal to the most developers and…

Years ago I stumbled across a basic version of this concept and it stuck with me. I knew if I was ever going to take on such a project, it would need to be flawless, but without coding experience it was just another idea that would never happen. By the end of 2024, as AI coding tools exploded everywhere, I finally had a way to make it real. I started from zero knowledge and spent months collaborating with AI agents as a learning experience. Every pixel and every function went through me. The AI translated what I asked for into code, but every decision was human. I didn't use existing OS…
