JigsawCat AI

TL;DR: I built a puzzle platform that secretly gives you free access to all mainstream AI art models (GPT-4o, Flux, Stable Diffusion, Google Imagen 4+). Users think they're just playing puzzles, but they're actually getting unlimited AI image generation by earning credits through gameplay. No need to pay, no generation limits. I built JigsawCat (https://jigsawcat.ai) after getting frustrated with expensive AI art subscriptions. Midjourney costs $10-60/month, GPT-4o requires ChatGPT Plus at $20/month, and most platforms have strict daily limits. Meanwhile, I loved solving…

    Hey HN! Pilots everywhere are required to keep a logbook of all their flying hours, aircraft, airports, and so on. Since I track everything digitally (some people still just use paper logbooks!), I put together some data visualizations and a few 3D globes to show my flying history. This globe is probably my favourite so far: https://jameshard.ing/pilot/globes/all If you’ve got ideas for other graphs or ways to show this kind of data, I’d love to hear them!

The project had traction (1.4k GitHub stars, 95 forks, ~20K visits/month), but was eventually sold due to video licensing hurdles. The new owner stopped maintaining it, and the repo went abandoned. Over the next 9 months, I sent 15 emails to try to save it : no replies. Feature requests & issues were ignored. The community was left with a "broken" tool let's say. I couldn't just let it die So I built the new version from scratch with the same open-source spirit, but a better…
