I've written many scripts and programs to make my life easier (and just for fun, really). Here are a few of my most used programs:
- A service that constantly checks for freelancing/contract jobs that meet my list of criteria, then sends a desktop+phone push notifications for me to take a deeper look.
- An automatic backup service that uses Borg and triggers when I connect my external hard drive to my computer. It handles all kinds of failures and knows how to organize my stuff too.
- A savings and spending tracking and reporting dashboard, because I just couldn't find one that "clicks" with me.
I think most of my programs are just automating things I use regularly, but isn't that the point of software, really?
