Maybe you've created your own AR program for wearables that shows the definition of a word when you highlight it IRL, or you've built a personal calendar app for your family to display on a monitor in the kitchen. Whatever it is, I'd love to hear it.

I have a music playlist program which deals with the problem of getting used to music. It's effective because I seldom want to choose a track to play, and I don't find myself skipping a lot consecutively.

I have a dedicated key for skipping (and I keep adding meta keys to make it skip more (each meta key is x2)). The next track to play is automatically selected based on the combination of two factors: being skipped less and being played less.

I get to hear my whole collection in a way that's far more enjoyable than an unweighted shuffle.
