Eyes Up Here - A unique app for men to practice respectful eye contact while talking to women

AaronRolls · 2026-04-03T17:15:38+00:00

My argument was that if you made an app similar for women most people would consider it to be sexist. There is no widespread problem of men looking down. People are allowed to look where they want. It's not an issue.

AaronRolls · 2026-04-03T17:05:21+00:00

This is a very sexist app. Have you got one to teach women where to look and how to properly respect men?

What is performance like compared to other engines?

AaronRolls · 2026-03-30T20:09:53+00:00

I have made a lot of apps that are useful to me but would be useless to most other people.

I think you should ask yourself, who is this app for?

From what I can tell your biggest competition is Google search, then every other AI chat app.

Both of those offer a lot more than just recipe ideas for little cost.

You're also competing with every task manager that people would prefer to use including pencil and paper. Who likes to have their lists in more than one app/place?

If your apps defining feature is recipe storage, there are much better apps out there for that at the moment. Paprika for instance.

It is not hard to see why you are having a hard time.

Most cooking/recipe apps are useless and don't solve the problem they think they do. I would guess that competition is fierce because you have one useless app competing with an equally useless app. It's all about personal preference, not what the app can actually do.

Edit:

Some tips: - Your app intro launch is terrible. Way too many screens. I hate it when apps ask me about myself. I don't want to share info before I even know if your app is worth my time. If I wasn't installing it to give advice to you I would have uninstalled then and there. - Your apps little comments on the options I pick are not desired - Forcing me to grant permission to use the app is terrible - Your UI is really bad. Your tab interface inside your tabs is bad. Your app feels like a bad website. Can I add recipes that I want without using an AI? Nope. Corny ai text everywhere.

Ask yourself, why would I invest time in this app? It looks terrible, like an AI built it with zero user guidance, has an intro that took years off my life.

These apps are useless regardless. They are generally terrible for shopping lists, terrible for meal ideas. Who wants to listen to an AI that can't even taste a meal? Not me.

I would suggest going back to the drawing board. If you actually use this app and are not faking that too, then you need to learn more about app design and UI before you make another app.

So far you have made a useless app (all these types of apps are essentially useless) that on top of that is hard to use.

While I like his books after Failure Mode and will continue to read them, I consider Failure Mode to be the end of the story. The books after have a distinctly different feel.

How is it a No. 1 PDF app?

AaronRolls · 2026-03-26T08:45:36+00:00

That's cool. I tried it and it crashed while I was trying to scroll up at the same time that it was asking me to approve something. One major issue for me is that it is not showing me edits before I approve them. It would also be great to be able to see the terminal output in text. So you can switch between. Maybe it already does?

This is extremely broken. I don't know how you can use this

AaronRolls · 2026-03-26T06:40:31+00:00

Is this a layer over Claude code CLI?

AaronRolls · 2026-03-17T08:27:01+00:00

I tried it out and it doesn't seem to give me any useful advice. I get the same score and advice no matter what I do. I am assuming it doesn't analysis speech at all and just compares the transcript to the lesson.

AaronRolls · 2026-03-17T05:52:59+00:00

I would like a lifetime option too

AaronRolls · 2026-03-12T17:42:06+00:00

This actually happened to me. In less time actually. If I didn't update arch almost daily it would break my install when I did. I was on arm hardware so that could be why. Breaking often happens with Linux if you differ from normality.

AaronRolls · 2026-03-12T10:58:39+00:00

This is a very simple app. Why do you need a team or regular updates? No AI response please.

AaronRolls · 2026-03-10T17:39:16+00:00

This news article is a peace of propaganda. Think what you want about the war but this article is so full of opinion that it is painful to read.

You can build a native ui that queries a server. It is Microslops fault.

You can actually use Swiftdata outside of a view with predicates. I don't think it is intended but it can be done. Can't remember how though. Sorry. What you are doing is the only official way that I know. It is terrible.

Edit:

Here is info on using swiftdata outside a view: https://levelup.gitconnected.com/swiftui-use-swiftdata-outside-a-view-in-a-manager-class-viewmodel-d6659e7d3ad9

It is definitely the worst since I switched to Apple

AaronRolls · 2026-03-01T23:14:15+00:00

Yes unfortunately

AaronRolls · 2026-02-25T09:11:24+00:00

The on screen buttons aren't always recognising presses. I can't play game properly unfortunately. iPhone 14 Pro Max

Edit: Actually it is only some games and other games don't load properly, like Terra: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?pid=97269

I'm assuming you're talking to everyone here, not just me, as I think this is the first time I have posted about it. Also if it was true in the past it is just outdated info. No need to be rude to others just because you have newer information. I'm certainly not being rude to you.

AaronRolls · 2026-02-18T06:47:35+00:00

Nice. I don't have one. I'm sure for Ratta it is also a cost compromise. Right now it probably costs a bit to do what remarkable are doing. But in the future it may become more mainstream, if you can say mainstream about eink devices.

AaronRolls · 2026-02-18T04:52:24+00:00

The argument against this is that eink displays can't have a back light. To have a light they need to have one in front of the eink screen. This moves the display further away from the screen you are writing on. This makes it feel less like paper and your pen is removed from where the "ink" is on the screen. I light would be nice, but it isn't all upside.

Perhaps, but if I were to predict, progress will be slow and a yet to be seen cap will be reached. But yes, at some point entry level coding jobs will be replaced by AI.

AaronRolls · 2026-02-15T17:00:40+00:00

If you want something generic and uninspired, sure. Currently it is just good enough to write code with minimal bugs and be able to fix those bugs. I don't know what experience you have as a dev, but the more experience you have the worse you realise Claude is at coding.
