Tandem is a terminal you can invite people into. Start a session, send the link, and they're looking at your live shell — in a browser, in seconds. No install, no account, no SSH keys to hand out.

The same "click a link and you're in" as a video call, except what everyone joins is a real running shell.

Send a link, they're in. Guests open it in Chrome or Safari and get a full terminal to pair-program with the host.

Tap the right ⌘ key and describe what you want. Uses STT transcribes as you speak, and the phrase comes back as a shell command sitting on your prompt — for you to read and run, or not.

[i personally built this because I was pairing up with non-eng folks and in a remote world, it was extremely painful to get the right cmds over. if i had direct access to their terminal, i'd be able to solve it within seconds vs. hours of back/forth] Looking forward to feedback and hopefully this is a useful tool for folks!

Thanks Rob, this is good feedback! The next version will include QR code plus link for both the iOS and macOS app.

You will need the macOS server app for this to work: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/argly-server/id6755750868 I built this project because I wanted to keep vibe :D coding at night, but didn't want to bring my entire laptop with me.

My new flow has become if I'm developing iOS apps:

1. I log into Argly from my phone, it connects/ screen-shares my desktop and I can control all the apps or send keyboard strokes

2. I'll have cursor open, feed it a prompt, wait for the changes to be applied

3. Then it deploys to my phone through wifi from across the house. This works decently

I would be interested in how this could be useful for you folks!

There is a lot of areas to improve this app so I would be interested in how this could be useful for you folks!

A relevant question is, if you asked that to your spouse, would you be angry if they came home with a jar of peanut butter?

Why would someone choose your service over a service such as Applause? https://www.applause.com

That's not a fair comparison. Imagine if you hired an electrician for no money, and you kept using them over and over again. I expect if I were to pay for an alternative to not have my privacy violated.

Not that this would ever happen..probably, but if Amazon were to offer users a $20 amazon store voucher to get users to disable their FB account and port all their pictures to a social media solution they build, I could see myself doing that. This platform would only be accessible to users with Amazon Prime accounts and that would be a way for them to keep it ad-free.

That's awesome. What is the business model of IndieHacker?

New programmers usually don't have any exposition on what's an acceptable amount to ask and adding snark just deters them from sticking with it.

The types of disasters that I've talked to with business continuity managers they are most worried about are:

1). If there's a shooter near the premises, they need to quickly alert people.

2). Earthquakes/natural disasters, and you are absolutely right that internet would be first to go down with this scenario. Right now there aren't that many alternatives to bluetooth if the cell signal is down. Bluetooth is only sufficient for small range, but you never know if someone is trapped in closed space. Having this backup is better than nothing.

It would be really cool if offices equipped themselves with battery-powered bluetooth extenders and in these events, communication would be independent of close range + internet.

3). Carbon monoxide leaks are also common causes of concern.

Thanks! This tool was specifically made to help coordinate employees when a disaster happens.

So for example, places that I had previously worked at would have a back-up location that employees would have to navigate to if the main office was closed. This information was all stored in some sharepoint document and employees would have to edit a spreadsheet document when they arrived. With Owlorbit, you can easily place a meet-up point on a map and users in your specific channel can view it. They can also respond to a poll (that gets pushed out to smart-phones) if they are safe.

This tool can be used for other purposes, but I have been gearing all the features towards the business continuity space.

I am releasing the Owlorbit SDK for both iOS and Android.

https://github.com/owlorbit/owlorbit_ios_sdk

https://github.com/owlorbit/owlorbit_android_sdk

Here is list of all the REST api routes: https://github.com/owlorbit/api

Owlorbit is a platform that you can share your location with the people you trust.

You can create channels, send out polls + messages, add meet-up points, embed live-maps in your sharepoint portal/websites, and now you can program custom applications on top of our API. Think of it as Slack but focused on location business continuity.

Not every business continuity plan is the same, that is why we're empowering companies to create their own location-based solutions by providing this SDK tool-box.

Owlorbit does not keep a history log of locations. It only keeps the very last location stored in the db.

Owlorbit and its API is free for non-commercial users. Don't hesitate to sign-up and test out our full product first before committing for a commercial account!

This is a chance before the U.S mid-terms for them to prove to the public they've learned from their mistakes..

1). prevent the spread of fake news.. they need a better solution than the user-tagging bs if an article is valid or not. there was a scientologist that had an account that wasn't active for 5+ years, that started posting how puerto rico wasn't that bad when the storm first hit. why is this account not being banned or suspended when people are reporting it and they're reposting pictures from texas claiming it to be all good.

2). prevent outside interference with elections. the first baby step is if they're accepting rubles for political ads targetted at americans, ban it. simple as that. then it'll get more complex and interesting handling proxies doing the dirty deed. the hearing w/ congress was pathetic and makes fb even more untrustworthy.

3). ban fake accounts / tie in a real human behind the account. 100000 fake users means a lot less to me if i'm an advertiser than 10 real people.

even though pretty much everyone i know is on facebook, i'm itching for another platform with better integrity to jump ship to.

Bruh if it's accepted then why did people just lose over a half a billion $ storing their cryptocurrency in one.

The reason why fiat currencies are main-stream is because there's trust. People trust they can deposit and withdraw their money to and from banks w/ some semblance of protection and have transactions with little friction. News like this signals that you really shouldn't trust any crypto-currency exchange yet (just browse r/coinbase and people are waiting 1+ month to receive funds) , and I'll see a headline like the above and it's not surprising.

I don't understand why news like this doesn't have that huge of an impact of bitcoin's price.. Bitcoin seems to be hovering around 11k~ as I'm writing this. It's been at the same price it seems for the past couple of days...

Just one tiny suggestion, let users create their display name. The hashed names make it a bit unreadable.

The bandwidth at which they produced new flash games was amazing. They were pretty detailed too. I can't think of any html5 gaming community website that even comes remotely close to them.

One of my favorite events with Neopets was participating in a global takedown of enemies during war. I spent so many hours with that website.. from tending my shop, training my pets and tricking out their pages w/ HTML, to collecting map pieces (I remember the economics w/ Secret Laboratory Map Pieces exploding when people realized how valuable they were)..

This might sound dumb but.. with these Meltdown + Spectre bugs would an attacker be able to penetrate to gain full access only if a user downloads a native app or would it be possible through the browser/js?

lol, this is dumb that adding a cryptocurrency would have that profound impact on their stock. Just pay them in USD or some other currency with real-world proven value.

It's that simple, huh? Why not save everyone the trouble and replace GUI's with terminals while we are at it.

I've probably spent a couple of hours last month trying to resolve sound driver related issues where my headphone jack stopped working on Ubuntu 16.04. Also, my dual monitor set-up randomly stopped working.. this was during a deadline so I ended up coding with my thinkpad screen for the entirety of a day. This is my work machine. These are the exact same problems I faced 10 years ago when I was using Ubuntu. Completely unacceptable. Macs + Windows are miles ahead more stable than Ubuntu.

I wonder how much it would cost to cover the entire US w/ solar-powered wifi extenders to create said mesh-network. Is there an equivalent for bluetooth?

Because it's valid snark and at this point an on-going joke. Fragmentation seems to be very much part of the Google culture.

Personally, I look forward to the stackoverflow questions tagging Android Go specific problems and being redirected to Golang issues.

They also have a paid version where no ads are shown.
