Protocol — Self Experments Lab

What it does

Protocol is a self-experiment lab — not another habit tracker. Most habit apps tell you whether you showed up. Protocol tells you whether it worked. You pick an experiment (no sugar, cold showers and other) set a duration of 14–30 days, log a daily check-in, and track your metrics against a baseline you capture on Day 0. At the end you make one explicit decision: keep it or drop it Over time you build a personal record of what actually works for you — backed by your own data, not someone elses

Protocol is a self-experiment lab for your phone. Run time-boxed personal experiments, track your metrics, and make a conscious decision — keep it or drop it.

Run time-boxed experiments on yourself. Log a daily check-in. Track what changes. At the end — make one conscious decision: keep it or drop it. Pick from 15 curated protocols — or design your own with custom metrics. The data has spoken. Keep it or drop it — your call, backed by evidence. Every closed experiment, permanently recorded. Your personal evidence base. Tracks streaks. Rewards consistency. Tells you whether you showed up — but never whether it actually made a difference. You run it forever and hope something changes. Runs experiments. Captures baselines. Measures outcomes. At the end of every protocol you make an explicit decision — worth keeping, or not. Over time you build a…from dadaxonenigma.github.io

  A free minimalist daily habit tracker2024 · rdht.vercel.app · ▲158

  Hello. I was looking for a simple and clean habit tracker. I went through a few apps but felt they were missing something. I also had some time on my hands, so decided to make my own and share it in case anyone else likes it. Some of the supported features: Streaks based, track and beat your longest streaks Fully useable offline Freezes (similar to Duolingo's streak freezes) Visual map for tracking consistency Pause the app when you need a break or will be away For anyone curious about the tech stack: - React for frontend - Dexie cloud for storage and syncing - Vercel for hosting Link:…

  Talanoa▲346

  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…

  Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

  Performative-UI – A react component library of design tropes▲1,181

  Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
