What it does

ifso is a financial scenario planner. Enter your income, accounts, and expenses, add a decision like buying a house at 31 or retiring at 55, and it projects each year until 90 with real tax math and tells you whether the plan holds. Free to start. Nothing connects to your bank.

Enter your finances today, add any number of decisions you're looking to make at any age, and see if you reach your financial goals. This plan funds retirement through 90 with $1.41M to spare. You retire at 60 with $1.40M and start by spending $54,979 a year. Enter your income, accounts, and expenses. Add a decision, like buying a house at 31 or retiring at 55, and ifso projects each year until 90 with real tax math. It tells you whether the plan holds, and you can compare it against a plan where you decide differently. Whether the plan stays funded to 90, or the age the money runs out. Under that, what you would retire with and what you could spend each year. This plan funds retirement…from ifso.io

  • Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  • Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
