As a medical student, I'm making a site of free tools for medical trainees, the biggest being a rank list tool to balance logical factors and gut ranking as well as pairwise comparisons/maps/etc. https://medcompass.tools/rankcompass. Might adapt to other avenues to help people pick housing and other things that require ordered lists and decision tools!

I also make interactive tools for artists at https://artres.xyz.

I've been super inspired by all the amazing things I've seen on Hacker News.

I am excited to try Trilium! though I think it might be hard to migrate all of my notes over with the [[tag]] conventions I have now. Did you use the trilium-py tool?
Re:Ask HN: Share your personal site on Wednesday April 06, 2022 @06:04PM (#30938033)
https://art-res.xyz this is a website that I mainly use for blogging about art resources. Made in Hugo, though probably needs a fresh coat of paint.
https://artres.xyz and the tumblr it's connected to makes a little bit of money like $1000 total over a few years. I mainly make money off of selling PDFs or tips!
Re:Ask HN: What is your blog and why should I read it? on Tuesday April 07, 2020 @10:44AM (#22803635)
https://artres.xyz I blog about art tutorials and resources. I also host interviews with creatives that reach out to me. I have a lot of fun doing it. I also have a design/artist utilities like an idea generator and a random image mood board generator.

PS: great stuff here everybody!

hi! For some reason, I used to not need to add to add in netlify-data=true in the HTML. The form was fetching addresses successfully until 3 days ago (checked the dashboard and had responses) and then it was broken without that tag in there. Once I added it in, the 404 went away and it worked again.

By the way, I absolutely LOVE Netlify!

Re:Show HN: Art Resources and Tutorials Website on Tuesday December 31, 2019 @12:55PM (#21922944)
Thank you for the help! I will implement those changes shortly!
Re:Show HN: Art Resources and Tutorials Website on Tuesday December 31, 2019 @12:54PM (#21922938)
Thanks so much! I will add this resource!
Re:Show HN: Art Resources and Tutorials Website on Monday December 30, 2019 @05:09PM (#21917114)
Dang it was working 3 days ago! Just saw that Netlify changed the way forms are handled! Thanks for noticing! I just fixed it!

Thank you so much for the feedback! Update: I implemented several of your suggestions, appreciate it!

1.I definitely will start targeting my keywords more, that's such good point! 2. Great point, I might remove all of that because most people use the free commission board I have (this page: https://artres.xyz/artist-index/) on the community page and I don't want people to get a bad vibe! 3. Thanks for the heads up, I will see if I can fix that. I think it might be a Hugo shortcode problem so I might try to do it the native IG way or remove it. 4. Great idea, thank you!

I’m in university so I use OneNote for hand drawn diagrams. I eventually want an Apple Pencil and upgraded iPad and use good notes, but I don’t have the dollars right now haha. OneNote is great because of the expandable canvas and the handwriting recognition. I do like auto shapes feature of preview though.

I annotate PowerPoint slides directly with Preview.

For other notes, I use FSNotes which is like nvALT and it’s easily searchable and quick to use.

I sometimes edit those MD notes in Typora.

I also like to curate ideas in a Gitbook, which I have public but it’s kinda messy right now. (https://index.kalispera.xyz/)

For some writing projects, I love Scrivener.

I kinda feel like I’m addicted to trying tools though oops.

Re:Ask HN: What did you build in 2019? on Monday December 30, 2019 @04:25PM (#21916847)
I added 3 generator tools for artists to my website on https://artres.xyz! Helped me learn how to implement JS libraries into my static site.
This is really delightful! Some people are so spot on!

Hi guys! I wanted to thank this community because otherwise I wouldn't have known about Hugo, Netlify, Markdown, and static site generators.

CC welcome because I am always looking to improve.

Thanks for looking!

Thank you! I might just reorganize my very messy one note

Ask HN: Favorite note taking/wiki software?

I was looking into org-mode, but it seems to be a bit overkill for my needs at this point.I've read a lot of comments and threads here on HN, but I couldn't find ones newer than 5 months on some of the software I was considering.I want something I can use easily for university (Research papers/essays/ rich notes), and creative writing projects(I may pick up scrivener eventually)I am...

Right now I use pocket, but I want to try stash!

I will definitely write a short review, but I need 10 people to view the link to help me access it first: https://stash.ai/landing?source=f520deef
