I have always been fascinated by live TV broadcasts from around the world. I created a website for it locally and have now released the code as open source. Please feel free to check it out on GitHub at github.com/tpkahlon/jackal.
Recently, I created a project (https://cs1000.vercel.app) which is refined and ad free version of an article. Is it fine to build such side projects via web scraping? Do we need approval from site/entity involved?
All outstanding issues have been addressed. Add-on is functional on both main site and search site, Enjoy! If you face any issues, feel free to report on the repository.
I wish there was an app that could serve during time of emergency crisis. Based on your city, province, country of location, it could provide you step by step guide of handling next course of action. Right away, it tells user what is their crisis location address which will be required by insurance, and 911. Users can have option to start audio recording in app background to monitor themselves after crisis that they can use as proof later on. Based on crisis location, app can predict nearest locations of recommended service centres, hospital, fire, police stations and emergency contact location. For long term, it could shape up like Waze where people could report where crisis happened, which guideline they followed post crisis, rate them so other readers can read, interact etc. It would be nice if app can ask a series of questions and can dispatch info to your insurance company, CAA towing service etc. For example, all preliminary questions can be asked by app like How many passengers in car, any serious injuries, health related questions, license info etc. Once that is complete, it automatically submits this data to insurance for starting a case and dispatching tow service by recommeded parties like CAA at one touch of fingertip. This same info can be saved as PDF for distributing it to Police at scene. An app in form of educating people in a guided way can put an end to this corrupt business.
Books, Videos are good resources for training your brain to not do certain things. It is mere data where reader is in control of processing information in a favourable state of mind. Personal loss/failure or lowest phase is best teacher in life that puts your mind on spot and its actions lay foundation for how your life will look for upcoming years.
I fell into this cycle where I posted my projects on GitHub. I was constantly chasing the green tick every single day. All my projects were representation of bad code. At the end, I learnt that successful developers usually pay mere attention to Github and more attention to problem solving and consistent learning. These days, I use Github as a reference to concepts I learn. When a day come where I can consider myself a master on a language, I’ll take on an open source project to solve a real world problem with the knowledge gained.
