A simple postgres client I'm working on in my free time: https://sanchosql.com/ Linux only now but it's open source so it should be possible to compile for win/mac

htop and xstarter (disclaimer, I'm the author of the latter)
Excuse my shameless plug but I'm working on a Linux desktop client for postgres: https://sanchosql.com

Maybe someone will find it useful

https://github.com/lchsk/xstarter

Never planned to make any money out of it, I've made it because I needed it, and to play around with building a unix tool in C. It's pretty simple but it's definitely one of the projects I've had the most fun working on and I still have plenty of things I want to add.

I'm going to borrow some of these for my emacs list :)

Thanks. Don't know of anything made specifically for learning Chinese unfortunately, but I do hope to extend my project to include Asian languages someday.

Hi. Thanks, I've heard about godot, although haven't tried it. For now, I prefer to have more flexibility though.

Mostly two things:

1) online platform for learning foreign languages via simple games, currently trying to make it work on mobiles (http://language-monster.com)

2) attempting to create a classic 2D real-time strategy game, although it's in early development: https://github.com/lchsk/knights I intend to make it work on Linux & Windows

Great, I did some work with ncurses & C, and it's not easy but it's worth it.
Re:Show HN: A ncurses CRM system (and accounting) on Tuesday April 04, 2017 @07:09AM (#14031359)
Cool. Out of curiosity, what language is it written in? (Fellow ncurses fan here ;))
Hi Yes, this is thought of as an improvement over dmenu and similar :) It uses cache so imho it's much faster.

@apixline Thanks a lot again, the issue is fixed (along with the buttons in the top-left corner not working on windows).
Re:Show HN: Learn foreign languages by playing games on Monday January 23, 2017 @08:08AM (#13461907)
Oh, wasn't expecting that :( I will fix it asap. Thanks!

Thanks! A bit weird, should be working. Will look into that.

Hi, thanks for your comment!

1. There actually are instructions (button in the top left corner, shown during the game). I guess it should be more visible to be useful :) 2. Great idea, I'll certainly think about it!
