Vacation Maximizer – Maximize PTO by taking days off around holidays

Hey! In my last job I was constantly wondering when it would be best to take days off so I could enjoy the most days off in a row, so I made this tool! It tries to schedule PTO around holidays so that you get the most consecutive time off while spending as few days as possible. You can set some constraints, customize the holidays and define mandatory vacation days (in case your company mandates them). If you try for 2025, you should see results for the rest of the year. If there are unscheduled days, it's because there isn't a particularly good period to take them off. (I should make this…

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hey! In my last job I was constantly wondering when it would be best to take days off so I could enjoy the most days off in a row, so I made this tool! It tries to schedule PTO around holidays so that you get the most consecutive time off while spending as few days as possible. You can set some constraints, customize the holidays and define mandatory vacation days (in case your company mandates them). If you try for 2025, you should see results for the rest of the year. If there are unscheduled days, it's because there isn't a particularly good period to take them off. (I should make this clearer in the site, to be honest). Let me know if you have any questions or comments and hope you get value out of it! Bernardo

    Today marks ten years, 3653 consecutive days, of running at least one mile every day under the USRSA rules [1]. To celebrate, I built an interactive dashboard that turns a decade of GPX files into charts you can explore. Running has truly changed my life: I've made lifelong friends, explored beautiful places, and more importantly invested into my own health and fitness, which I'm starting to see the positive benefits as I get older. The stack is pretty simple: a NextJS app, with a Postgres database to keep all my running data, and all the stats are pre-computed and cached in Redis, so I…

    Made this website as an exercise in vibe-coding and GCP. It was posted about a few times around the internet, on sites like Morning Brew (https://www.morningbrew.com/issues/business-buzzkill), MetaFilter (https://www.metafilter.com/209703/Draw-A-Fish), boingboing.net, etc. I think it's cute! I built a basic CNN trained against penises and swastikas, and then anything that doesn't hit the 63% confidence score gets sent to a mod queue, a vibe-coded fish-tinder…
