I made a down detector for down detector

After down detector went down with the rest of the internet during the Cloudflare outage today I decided to build a robust, independent tool which checks if down detector is down. Enjoy!!

In plain words

This tool monitors whether Down Detector is operational by checking its status from multiple regions. It was created as an independent alternative after Down Detector went offline during a Cloudflare outage, leaving users unable to check if other services were down. The service is free and designed to provide redundancy by operating independently from Down Detector's own infrastructure, ensuring users can still verify Down Detector's availability even when mainstream status-checking tools fail.

Eigendrum - Draw any shape and hear what it sounds like as a drum▲243
Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…
