m0nit0r··on Show HN: I made an emergency page for my family
I really like the idea of trying to solve an existing problem.

You forget your phone but how do you access a webpage in an emergency?

If this works for you and your personal use case, then everything is fine. But I see a lot of hurdles along the way here.

I would rather think of something like: If my phone hasen't been moved over an X amount of time (locations based or accelerometer) the phone drops a note to predfined receipients with "My phone hasen't moved in 60 minutes, maybe I forgot it somewhere". You can send a location point, but that is just where the phone is.

At least it would solve the point where you have to do something manually.

m0nit0r··on YouTube to automatically label AI-generated videos
I really appreciate this. AI content - even if we all use AI - and especially AI videos are a pain in the b*tt. Ai voice over with Ai imagery packed in 10-20 minutes lonog videos.

Who watches those anyways?

m0nit0r··on Ask HN: Anyone else struggling with AI and work?
Coding since coding agents are doing such a decent job has become more orchestrating stuff. Less handy work in the code base but more oversight and "management". In the end you still need the skills to understand how software works and what to look out for. AI needs hardcore guidelines from someone who knows what they are talking about.
m0nit0r··on Show HN: Mechs.lol – a free, web-based autoshooter game
Lured me in more than I expected. Sure it's a clone of Vampires or any other similar game. But who can say no to Mechs?

The beginning is a little slow and it takes some time running around and avoiding opponents until you manage to access at least two upgrades. But it's fun and I have it bookmarked.

m0nit0r··on Sleep research led to a new sleep apnea drug
If it spares a respirator this is huge win. Even if might be used before severtiy leads to the unavoidable NIV-respirator with overnight CPAP.
