Sarkari Exam Typing
Practice typing tests scored like real government exams
What it does
Built around 31 real Indian government exam patterns (SSC, RRB NTPC, MP CPCT, several High Courts, and more), each scored with that exam's own rules instead of a generic WPM number. Supports English, Hindi, Marathi and Punjabi layouts (Mangal, Kruti Dev, DevLys, InScript, Remington). The free Windows app also counts real key depressions per hour, the metric government exams actually use, which a browser page can never see.
Practise sarkari exam typing in India for SSC, RRB, CPCT, court and state exams — free English and Hindi tests with exam-style timing and scoring.
Same duration, same speed target, same locked keys as your real exam — not a generic WPM meter with an exam's name stuck on it. Try any of the 31 exam patterns right now — in this browser, or offline in the Windows app. What a paid plan adds → Install it free from the Microsoft Store. Same tests, same lessons — just offline. Buy once and one key unlocks both. Current version: 3.3.0.0. A one-time purchase with a lifetime licence — no subscription, ever. 136 lessons, home row to a full test — English, all three Hindi layouts, Marathi and Punjabi. The first lesson in every layout is free for ever. Same duration, same speed target, same keys disabled — exactly like the real exam, so…from sarkariexamtyping.com

Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…

I made OwnTime to balance between competing priorities in my life. The idea is based on two main influences: the concept of "roles" from "The 5 Choices" (2015), and my repeated failure to effectively implement time blocking due to the necessary flexibility in my role. The app allows you to define time budgets, which are not much more than a few mutually exclusive countdown timers. The UX is essentially that of a chess clock for an arbitrary number of players with configurable time. The whole point of the app is to kick you out of the running role/priority when its time is up. One…
