Re:Show HN: FlagPalette – Flag Color Codes

Cool idea! How did you decide how to limit the colors for flags with many colors? For instance: https://flagpalette.com/kansas-flag-colors Kansas lists 5 colors but there are likely quite a few more.

Check out https://namechecker.vercel.app if you want to see if a project name has already been taken.

Should be fixed now. The GitHub endpoint for repos returns a list of possible matches and now they get filtered to fully equal the search input https://github.com/toddcooke/namechecker/blob/main/app/api/e...

Thanks! I hadn't considered folks exploring existing results for curiosity's sake, but that's a good point. I'll show taken domains and add links in an update.
Show HN: Name Checker – Find project name collisions
https://namechecker.vercel.app
Name Checker is a tool for when you want to create a new project and don’t want to check all the places (npm, apt, GitHub) for a name collision, you can just use this tool instead.I started working on this because I noticed on HN folks sometimes create a new company and SAAS and they didn’t notice that the name was already taken.Please let me know if y'all have any questions or comments!

The documentary Meet Your Meat. It was hard to watch, but I'm glad I did. Haven't eaten meat in a decade and I won't ever again.
The hardest part was eating meals with others, as virtually every adult eats meat. I cut out meat cold turkey:) but there was for sure a period where I was tempted despite ethical concerns.
