Uber for Flights
My friend and I built BookMyFlight to finally modernize flight search + booking. Why we built this: - Personalization. I fly the same route every month, and there’s no platform that knows my preferences so that I can open it, find and book my flight, and close it within a minute. - Booking is slow. I hate seeing a long clunky airline form each time I need to book. I want booking a flight to feel more like booking an Uber. How it works: 1. Optionally make an account and save your traveler preferences. Personally, I've specified my routine route as SFO to CLE and that I only want red-eye…
In plain words
BookMyFlight is a flight search and booking platform designed to streamline the booking process for frequent travelers. Users can save their travel preferences and search for flights through a chat interface or search panel, then book with a single click. The platform targets travelers who regularly fly the same routes and want a faster, simpler alternative to traditional airline booking forms. It emphasizes speed and personalization, aiming to make flight booking as quick and convenient as ride-sharing apps.

My friend and I built BookMyFlight to finally modernize flight search + booking. Why we built this: - Personalization. I fly the same route every month, and there’s no platform that knows my preferences so that I can open it, find and book my flight, and close it within a minute. - Booking is slow. I hate seeing a long clunky airline form each time I need to book. I want booking a flight to feel more like booking an Uber. How it works: 1. Optionally make an account and save your traveler preferences. Personally, I've specified my routine route as SFO to CLE and that I only want red-eye direct flights for this route. 2. Search for flights using chat or the search panel. Chat feels especially time-saving when you have preferences saved (e.g. I just say “search my routine trip"). 3. Once you find the flight you want, use the one-click book feature which books your flight directly with the airline. The first time you book a flight, you’ll have to fill out your traveler info, but you won't see that form after that. Notes: - Your booking is directly with the airline (this means when something goes wrong, you get direct support from the airline—not a third-party) - You can add your rewards numbers for each airline to keep earning points/status The ultimate goal is to create the best possible experience that every traveler wants, but that OTAs and airlines don’t care to create. Also very receptive to hearing pain points from frequent flyers; we think this space is really outdated and could use some innovation. Try it out and let us know what you think :)

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 went down the rabbit hole on a side project and ended up building this: Strange Attractors(https://blog.shashanktomar.com/posts/strange-attractors). It’s built with three.js. Working on it reminded me of the little "maths for fun" exercises I used to do while learning programming in early days. Just trying things out, getting fascinated and geeky, and being surprised by the results. I spent way too much time on this, but it was extreme fun. My favorite part: someone pointed me to the Simone Attractor on Threads. It is a 2D attractor and I asked GPT to extrapolate it to…

Hey all, I built this. It’s not trying to capture every autistic experience (that’d be impossible). It’s based on my own lived experience as well as that of friends on the spectrum. I'm trying to give people a feel for what masking, decision fatigue, and burnout can look like day-to-day. That’s hard to explain in words, but easier to show through choices and stats. I'm not trying to "define autism". I’ve gotten good feedback here about resilience, meds, and difficulty tuning. I’ll keep tweaking it. If even a few people walk away thinking, "ah, maybe that’s why my coworker struggles in those…
