VacayBuddy – PTO Management Inside Slack (Open Source)

I built VacayBuddy, an open-source Slack bot that makes managing Paid Time Off (PTO) simple and seamless — all from within Slack. Features: • Request and track PTO directly from the Slack app home • Get notified and approve PTO via Slack modals • Admin dashboard to manage team PTO balances and history • Excel integration for migrating existing PTO data • Works out of the box with SQLite for local setup We use it internally to manage our team’s PTO without emails or spreadsheets. Would love your feedback or contributions!

VacayBuddy – PTO Management Inside Slack (Open Source) launched on April 26, 2025 with 5 votes and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was not reachable when checked in September 2026.

    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.

  • Hi everyone, I built PyXL — a hardware processor that executes a custom assembly generated from Python programs, without using a traditional interpreter or virtual machine. It compiles Python -> CPython Bytecode -> Instruction set designed for direct hardware execution. I’m sharing an early benchmark: a GPIO test where PyXL achieves a 480ns round-trip toggle — compared to 14-25 micro seconds on a MicroPython Pyboard - even though PyXL runs at a lower clock (100MHz vs. 168MHz). The design is stack-based, fully pipelined, and preserves Python's dynamic typing without static type restrictions.…
