Very cool project, I wish I knew someone in that space that could help. Maybe reach out to any of the Universities or Museums in Egypt?
Where's WOPR when you need it...

Even IF we had the technical capabilities in the late-1970's to have assembled the radioactive "engine" in space, the budget for the Voyager missions would have been blown WAY out of line with the multiple launches per probe.
What's the out-of-the-box solution you are using?
Re:Show HN: Pushie – Get notified with a simple webhook on Monday September 14, 2026 @02:05PM (#49701217)
One confirmation and one suggestion...

Confirming: The Privacy Policy details that all notification data is deleted within 24 hours... Does this include any additional logging or analytics data?

Suggestion: I like the "Where can I use this?" section. I would suggest adding a couple of practical examples around the already provided list of ideas.

Four tries seems about right with the four digit game... Would need more tries if going to 5 or 6 digits.
I had used LibreOffice for a while which ticks the box for Open Source and LINUX compatible. There are a number of AI "plugin" that one can use for LibreOffice, too...

How will you differentiate from a platform like that one?

Thanks for those extra details, that approach could be useful in many circumstances / scenarios. It almost reminds me of "punch-out" in the B2B world.

I would suggest that bringing the "full checkout experience" to chat is backward thinking--that approach adds more friction than a traditional checkout. The ideal flow is when checkout happens behind-the-scenes and the chat is simply a confirmation of purchase.

I enjoy a good brain teaser--fun one!

My only suggestion, make the key slightly larger or a bit more prominent. At some point, the players will have solved enough puzzles to have it memorized, then a way to skink it back down...

So, upload a Garmin file?

Do you have an API? I use Tasqs (https://tasqs.com/) as my primary task management platform--it's particularly useful with its ability to connect to any AI Assistant (via its APIs and MCP connector). BUT, I like your calendar view better than the one it offers... What's your roadmap for data ingestion?
I love the idea of getting out of the "office" (in my case work from home) to meet people for real eye contact, discussions without technology, etc. I went through my LinkedIn contacts a year ago and filtered to those in my city. From that list I contacted a couple of people each day in an effort to meet for coffee, lunch, or adult beverages. It was excellent to have good conversations without a phone or laptop in hand.
