Secure remote iSight viewing and motion detection for Mac, iPhone launched on February 3, 2014 with 13 votes and more than 75% of that year's launches.
In plain words
OnCue enables Mac users to access their iSight camera remotely from iPhone and receive motion detection alerts. The app streams live video from a Mac's built-in camera to iOS devices over the internet, allowing users to monitor their computer or workspace from anywhere. Motion detection triggers notifications when activity is detected in the camera's view. OnCue is designed for Mac owners who want remote surveillance capabilities using their existing hardware.

This uses tinygrad, so it runs well on my apple silicon macs and should be able to run on a lot of hardware (or will be able to when I remove other deps).

http://instantclick.io/ It seems the internet architecture won't bring us instant websites anytime soon. So here is a hack. I released this JS library last month (today is version 2.0 release, fixing v1.0's rough edges), it makes use of HTML5's pushState and preloading to make a website instant. It works like this: before clicking on a link, you'll hover over it. And there's a delay of 200-300 ms between these two events.
