Linux and Windows CalDAV calendar client
Hello, I have been developing self hosted CalDAV calendar Bloben (https://bloben.com), which is now available also as standalone Electron desktop client for Linux and Windows. It is using same client and server code base with some changes like: - switching from PostgreSQL database to SQLite - requests are handled with IPC - no account management, just single user Why Electron app when there is already self hosted client? I think there are some people, who don't want all features from self hosted version and using desktop app might be easier for them or it is just better alternative…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Hello, I have been developing self hosted CalDAV calendar Bloben (https://bloben.com), which is now available also as standalone Electron desktop client for Linux and Windows. It is using same client and server code base with some changes like: - switching from PostgreSQL database to SQLite - requests are handled with IPC - no account management, just single user Why Electron app when there is already self hosted client? I think there are some people, who don't want all features from self hosted version and using desktop app might be easier for them or it is just better alternative (be it maintenance, security, features). Published versions are advised to be for testing purposes only due to possibly many bugs. They can be found here: https://bloben.com/download Main git repository is here: https://github.com/nibdo/bloben-app Thank you and feel free to try it or ask if you are interested in anything.

Built this after getting frustrated with the paying to a google for email. Now running it for 1 months in production. What it does: - Full SMTP server (inbound/outbound, DKIM signing, SPF/DMARC checking) - IMAP with IDLE support - CalDAV/CardDAV (replace Google Calendar/Contacts) - Web admin panel with Prometheus metrics - Greylisting for spam prevention - Auto-discovery (mail clients configure themselves) - Audit logging for compliance What it doesn't do: - Webmail (use Roundcube, etc.) - ML-based spam filtering (greylisting + basic heuristics only) - Clustering/HA

This works suprisingly well. Just give it instructions like "make it winter" or "remove the cars" and the photo is altered. Here are some examples of transformations it can make: Golden gate bridge: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/brycedrennan/imaginAIry/ma...

I integrated this new InstructPix2Pix model into imaginAIry (python library) so it's easy to use for python developers.

The project is called QueryStorm. It uses Roslyn to offer C# (and VB.NET) support in Excel, as an alternative to VBA. I've posted about it before, but a lot has changed since then so figured I'd share an update. The current version includes a host of new features, namely a C# debugger, support for NuGet packages, and the ability to publish Excel extensions to an "AppStore" (which is essentially a NuGet repository). The AppStore can be used by anyone with the (free) runtime component. Another great addition is the community license, which is a free license for individuals and small companies…

Hey HN! Some more info: I’m an NHS doctor and the founder of Pi-A (https://www.pi-a.io) which developed Lungy (https://www.lungy.app). Lungy is an app (iOS only for now) that responds to breathing in real-time and was designed to make breathing exercises more engaging and beneficial to do. It hopefully has many aspects of interest to the HN community – real-time fluid, cloth and soft body sims running on the phone’s GPU. My background is as a junior surgical trainee and I started building Lungy in 2020 during the first COVID lockdown in London. During COVID, there were…
