New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: Telescope – Hassle-free company research

Show HN: Telescope – Hassle-free company research
9 by GRVYDEV | 5 comments on Hacker News.
Hey HN. I recently started a company and found myself constantly doing company research for competitors, prospective customers, and outbound leads. As an engineer, I found it challenging to figure out where to get up-to-date company information as well as tedious needing to visit multiple sites often. I built Telescope to solve that problem. Under the hood, Telescope performs multiple search queries the same way I would and synthesizes the results for me. This is very much a WIP but I would love for you to try it out and let me know what you think. Over the next couple of weeks, I plan on continuing to improve Telescope and add more features. Cheers :)

Show HN: Conway's Game of Life, but with a gallery of other peoples patterns
8 by Dave_Bruwer | 4 comments on Hacker News.
This is my spin on Conway's Game of Life. I have added the ability to create an account, save grids that you have discovered, and browse the gallery of grids saved by other people and replay them. This project has served as a sandbox for me to practice various aspects of developing a comprehensive web application from scratch. This was my first time developing a full scale web app with [almost] all the features you would expect. I know it is nowhere near perfect in its current state, but I feel it has reached a point of diminishing returns, and therefore my time is better spent focussing on other projects with more potential. I may continue to develop this project further in the future just for fun.
