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 built a proxy number for my sister who has to deal with her abusive ex-husband. She has court ordered visitations via phone for their kids. He would give her number to any multitude of people that would send harassing messages on his behalf.

The proxy allows any calls or texts from her number to send out with the proxy number. Any calls or texts from his number connect to her phone. All other communications are given a notice that they don't have access to call or message the proxy number and communications are recorded for court. It does not forward blocked communications to her phone. He continues to give out the number to harass her, but the family court judge gets a monthly report of all the attempted harassment.

Holy shit. This should be mandatory practice, government funded for any court related phone visitation.
