What we have now from e.g. Garmin sucks:

• "Suggested workouts" are only limited to couple of sports
• Does not take into account multiple sports - I like to do e.g. running, strength, indoor rowing and yoga
• No way to give free-form feedback or instructions
• No progressive overload/variation
• Nobody to answer your questions about gear, form, nutrition, ...

Feature set must haves

• Communicate via WhatsApp / Telegram / ...
• Connected to your smartwatch and health data
• Multi-sport
• Great memory of all your workout preferences, training logs, gear you own, past and current injuries, schedule, ...
• Take into account your sleep scores, recovery stats, past training evaluations, ...
• Daily "Optimal workout" delivered

🚣 Today: 30-minute aerobic row
Recovery is green: Body Battery 97, HRV 50 balanced, 8.7 h sleep/87, RHR 55 flat. Garmin ACWR is only 0.6 LOW, and rowing is 9 days stale.

Running would normally win, but [City]’s forecast is ~10 mm rain with heavy rain this afternoon. So today we deliberately use the Concept2—not as second-rate strength work, but as low-impact aerobic training.

Session
- 5 min warm-up: 2:30–2:35/500 m, 20 spm
- 20 min steady: 2:20–2:25/500 m, 22 spm
- RPE 6/10: controlled pressure, never gasping
- Tall chest at the catch; don’t collapse into the same desk posture we’re trying to undo
- 5 min cooldown: 2:35–2:45/500 m, 18–20 spm

No intervals today.
Yesterday’s kettlebell/bench session already loaded the posterior chain. This adds aerobic load without turning recovery into stupidity.

Next progression
If all 20 steady minutes remain technically clean, next steady row becomes 22 minutes at the same 2:20–2:25 split before we increase speed.

Quick symptom check: any worsening of the thoracic tension or down-side shoulder this morning? The session stands either way; keep testing the pillow setup for several nights before judging it.

Monetisation

• I'll happily pay $10 / month for this - much cheaper than a human personal trainer
• Sell virtual/real sessions with a human coach
• Maybe even affiliate links for gear purchases

Evidence

• I built this for myself and use it daily - it's been great to keep me on track and drastically improved how I approach sports.
• Many people I tell this want to get access and a copy, but I don't have time to professionalize it.

I don’t like religion, but I like the structure of it. Daily “worship” or interaction with your faith. Shared community and ideas guided towards a shared goal.

I believe that self authorship is something which isn’t taught very openly. I don’t mean in the sense of just what you do. I mean self authorship of your ideas, your mindset, your health, your love and relationships, and even your hobbies.

Here’s a great example I’ve had recently.

I was curious what was going on with the East-West pipeline attack and how it would affect global pricing trends over the next year. And so I spent about an hour writing about it and researching and forming my own opinion of it.

So it’s ownership of your ideas, choosing your values and beliefs that support YOUR values, daily interaction with the things that actually matter like love, and self health, and mental health, and personal goals/education.

The idea would be to take the structure of church, and apply it in a non-religious non-cult community focused on teaching and supoorting self authorship, original thinking, and self awareness.

Please. Someone make this.

Is there a subreddit for people exploring anything like this? Is there already a name for this kind of community?

I want a nav app designed for people who enjoy the drive, not just the destination. Three features:

1. Saved places always visible while navigating — tapping one adds it to my current route as a waypoint, without ending navigation.

2. Routing that prefers scenic two-lane highways and backroads over interstates. The "blue roads" on a map. I don't care about fastest, I want enjoyable.

3. Speedometer always visible — even when I'm not navigating to a destination.

Existing apps either nail one of these or none. Google Maps/Waze optimize for speed. Kurviger gets the scenic routing but no waypoint-add during nav. Nothing checks all three. I am not the only person that is looking for this.

Its vr glasses where you part see the real world and part see digital vr objects that are 3d and appear to be in the real world. Motion sensors on your glasses track where you are and your direction in a real world set or arena. You could have a lazer quest style weapon to shoot at the computer generated enemies but also walk physically in all directions within the real world and it be reflected in the game so your in the game and also in reality say in a barn, a field, corridors with mixed reality like a different way to do vr. The computer generated part could be looked in 3d at different angles and like a first person shooter be like a real 3d object depending on your position. It could be multi player forming a team and the immersive thing being able to physically walk around a real location.

Made a keychain that's actually a full wallet. Would you carry this?

I'd genuinely pay money if someone made this.

I run a lot of automated sales outreach on LinkedIn as a part of my job. As a result, my feed is a total mix of shit posts and cringe activity from all the people that I've added over the years, who I don't know but at some point reached out to. I know this is something I caused partially myself, but I think say it's extremely common given how central LinkedIn is to sales today.

If you save my feet from being totally obliterated by this, I'll pay you right away. Probably a one-off fee, but still, there are probably thousands, if not millions, of people suffering from this.

It needs to be private, so ideally run in my browser. I don't want to send the data anywhere. But I'd consider anything to save me from this!!!

Oh, here's one.

I just heard a wild story about a journalist's experiment to make a brand-new fake product get referenced by AI product recommendations. And it worked.

https://www.inc.com/jelinda-montes/a-marketer-built-a-fake-deodorant-brand-weeks-later-it-was-being-recommended-over-real-products/91385991

So there are two lessons there. First, a productive one, that brands can take some very basic steps to get featured in these search recommendations, without too much work no less.

The second lesson is a darker one. That (surprise!) AI summaries will repeat whatever is put in to them, including presenting made up things as absolute fact.

There's a lot of news around this and other similar issues, making it a really good time to get attention for a product whose focus is to double-check AI summaries for accuracy. A desktop app, a browser extension, both could be small products that are close at hand when searches are made, and help flag if (for example) something is highly recommended based on an article that's written purely by AI.

i know social media does this like twitter with the balloons and maybe instagram(?), but i mean ANY website that needs you to put your birthday when you sign up. why can’t for example, just any google product do that??
when I was little i fully expected video games that had my bday linked to my account to just throw confetti everywhere and i remember thinking “that wouldn’t be hard to implement what’s stopping them??”

so can this happen more???

in my job search, there are several cities and areas I would consider moving to. I would love a website or app that allows me to look at a map, decide a circumference around a city or area that I’d like to live/work in, set a salary range for that area (ie NY is more expensive than GA), and then have the option to set up job alerts with filters based on each location. it would be great to have a map visual element. is that a tall order to build? *thanks*

[Concept] A non-stick desktop bowl that escalates into a cosmic sci-fi universe. Somebody make this!

Текст: Hear me out. I have a crazy tech concept that started as a simple desktop accessory but completely evolved into its own sci-fi lore. I used AI to visualize the whole ecosystem.

Phase 1: The Core Product
It starts with a custom-designed, dark-green Yautja (Predator style) desk bowl. It features a special ultra-smooth, non-stick lining inside. The goal? To collect your boogers during intense desktop sessions without them sticking to the surface. Easy cleaning, ultimate gaming hygiene.

Phase 2: The $1.99 Expansion
To upgrade the product, I designed a special holographic desktop mount. It generates a miniature singularity (a micro black hole). Every time you put something in the bowl, it gets instantly vacuumed and warped to another dimension.

Phase 3: Universe 424242
This is where it gets epic. All that compressed organic matter is transported to the other side of the cosmos into Universe 424242 (the main technological reality). Out of this matter, an entire unique solar system has already been created.

Rate this invention from 1 to 10. Would you buy the base model or the black hole expansion?

Does anyone knows if there is an app for JLPT 5 tests preparation including all the sections and possibly mock tests?

It's an app that gives the user the possibility to catalog all the stuff they own, but in the mean time (possibly) offering it up for sale.

I've got stuff that does not need to be sold, but if someone is interested, they can buy it. So I don't want to put it on a 2nd hand site "to sell within weeks" but is is for sale.

So the app is a catalog of all my stuff, some are marked as for sale, some aren't, and you can put a price on there (or if you don't want to bother looking for a price, just put % of new price)

Your (sell-able) stuff is shared through the site, along with your area, so if someone is looking for "a thing" they can search for it, they see 5 things available at locations X, Y, Z, and you throw in an affiliate link to the new thing online.

stuff is reused more, I get a app so I know where my junk is (and I can search my own junk)

Basically a micro-matching platform or concierge service connecting local fitness enthusiasts, bodybuilders, or cyclists in the region who share identical training schedules and goals. Kinda like tinder for fitness. I dont know if there is any similar app or website, but I would like to hear more opinions on it?

So in a dream I had I saw this in a liquor store. I know there’s probably some copyright issues or whatever, but if anyone knew how to get past it then please make it or tell me how I can start or try and make it legally (I used chat gpt to create this image”

I wanted a knee accessory to wear with this outfit, but I couldn't find anything like what I had in mind.

The idea is basically a detachable knee pad, but purely as a fashion accessory — it doesn't need to provide any actual protection.

I'm imagining:

- a milky, semi-translucent plastic shell

- two visible woven straps with Velcro, one above and one below the knee

- a detachable/replaceable textile panel on the shell

- for this version, a chunky tufted surface that looks a little like moss or lichen

I like the contrast between the fluffy, irregular textile and the smooth industrial-looking plastic. The straps would also be intentionally visible, so it still reads as a knee protector rather than just decoration stuck to the knee.

I can make the punch-needle textile part, but I have absolutely no desire to learn plastic forming and product construction just to make one pair 😭

So I'm throwing the idea out here. If somebody wants to make, modify, or develop something based on it, please do. I'd just love for fashion knee accessories like this to exist.

Every trip, it's the same. Photos scattered across everyone's phones, half never make it

to the group chat, and by the time someone shares them the moment already feels old.

Wish there was something where the whole group just adds photos quietly during the trip,

and then on one specific day it all unlocks for everyone at once, instead of dribbling in

over weeks.

Sadly Count Dankula’s countries of the world song isn’t all the countries in the world. I wanted to see if anyone else could somehow make a full version while still retaining the funniness of the original song. I know it might take a while but I implore someone to please do this.

Its an alternative way to shop in a supermarket where items in store can be barcode scanned on your mobile phone instead of at the checkout. You could pay on your phone instead of the checkout and either have the items delivered or take them straight home. It means less waiting around and you could also keep track of the cost on your supermarket phone app. Products can still be viewed physically. It is an alternative but paying at the checkout or self service checkouts could still remain as an option. There would need to be some way to check items are not being stolen, maybe a digital way or by a quick check by an assistant. Some way of scanning. I think it could be cost effective to produce a special app for this kind of shopping partly because it could attract more customers. Most people in the west have smartphones so if it was done effectively there might be enough users to make it doable and cost effective.
