What it does

Everyone deserves a better education with Maths that comes from our own culture. A calculator is just a tool, much like a hammer, a shovel, or a Caterpillar Dozer.

Calculator App

Everyone deserves better education with Maths that comes from our own culture. Wouldn't it be easier if the tools of technology adapted to our culture - rather than our youth adopting other cultures? Your Maths teacher may not allow you to use a calculator - and for very good reasons. You need to be able to do basic math in your head and understand how to manipulate numbers in equations. Yet at some point that is very hard work for little personal gain. At this point a tool is approprate to aid in going even futher in maths. A calculator is just a tool, much like a hammer, a shovel, or a Caterpiller Dozer. Human's are tool users - we also make tools. And now we use tools to make even better…from kaktovik-calculator.com

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

Unlike every other attempt to build an iMessage app for Android (including our first gen app), Beeper Mini does not use a Mac server relay in the cloud. The app connects directly to Apple…

  • Hey! I made Heynote entirely for my own use case. For many years, I always had an Emacs instance running with the scratch buffer open, even long after I had abandoned Emacs as my programming editor in favor of more recent IDE:s. The simplicity of having just one big scratch buffer appeals to me, but I still want to separate the different things I jot down somehow (without using tabs or similar). Previously, my solution was to insert a bunch of blank lines between the notes, but hitting C-A would still select the entire buffer. That's why I came up with the concept of "blocks", which turned…
