I've had more than six consultations with top veneer dentists in NYC, Turkey, and Mexico. All six gave me a different recommendation. Not one of them offered to show me what I'd actually look like with veneers.So I tried ChatGPT, Gemini, and Grok. They all changed my face, and none of them let me compare options to figure out which smile I'd actually want.So I built it myself.Submit a photo and...
São Tomé and Príncipe is launching a new citizenship by investment program in September 2025. At an estimated cost of $90k and a processing time of six weeks, it's set to be the fastest and most affordable option available. We've been tracking this since the legislation passed and have a detailed breakdown of the new National Transformation Fund and application process. Join our waitlist for...
I'm curious about the 'vibe coded' comment - what specifically gave you that impression? I'd love to understand what made it feel that way so I can polish the experience for future users (and future projects). Any details you're willing to share would be incredibly helpful!
You make a great point about the privacy messaging. Looking back, I think I may have leaned too heavily into that angle. The real magic for me was actually discovering my exact count (turned out to be 77!) and then getting to play with the data in ways I never expected. Like finding out 2018 was apparently my peak year with 16 encounters, or that I'm averaging 4.8 per quarter since I started at 16. Those insights were genuinely surprising and fun to uncover.
I think I got caught up emphasizing privacy because it felt like such a sensitive topic, but you're right - maybe the more compelling story is about finally getting that accurate number and the entertaining visualizations that come with it. Do you think focusing on those benefits would resonate more with people than the privacy angle?
Also, I'm genuinely curious - even though you mentioned you're not the target demo, did any part of the data visualization or tracking concept appeal to you? Always trying to understand where the line is between 'useful tool' and 'solution looking for a problem.
For me, the motivation was purely selfish at first: I wanted to see the analytics without doing the work. I didn't want to have to mess with pivot tables or figure out a map API just to answer a personal question.
So this tool basically does all that data viz work for you. It auto-generates the map, the timeline, and charts for stats like nationalities, etc. It’s designed to surface interesting patterns automatically.
For years, the question of my actual 'body count' was a nagging personal curiosity. My memory is fallible, and the common solutions—like keeping a list in a notes app or a spreadsheet—always felt insecure and strangely clinical. I wanted a tool built for this specific purpose: a private, secure space to finally get an accurate number.So, I built BodyCount.Once I started inputting my own data...
I'm DS, a 31-year-old developer from NYC. Over the past few years of travel and dating, I kept losing track of meaningful connections and experiences that were actually important to my personal growth.
What started as curiosity about basic patterns (geographic distribution, timing, etc.) turned into something unexpectedly reflective. Having to consciously input each connection made me more thoughtful about who I'm spending intimate time with and why.
The technical challenge was interesting - how do you visualize deeply personal data in a way that feels empowering rather than clinical? I focused heavily on the UX to make it feel more like journaling than spreadsheet tracking.
I'm considering adding features around relationship pattern recognition - maybe helping people understand their actual preferences vs. perceived preferences through data analysis. The geographic and temporal patterns in my own data were genuinely surprising.
Would love feedback on:
- The overall concept - useful or weird? - Technical execution and privacy approach - What additional insights would be valuable? - UI/UX thoughts if you check it out
Thanks for any thoughts! This community has been incredibly helpful for my previous projects.
Originally built this to answer a simple question: what's my actual body count? Started as a fun way to get a final "score" of intimate encounters, but it evolved into something much more meaningful.After inputting my data, the visualization revealed patterns I'd never noticed. Seeing my romantic history mapped out geographically and temporally made me genuinely reflect on the who, when, where,...
