I didn't realise I had 2 entries in the top 20… My attention tends to navigate towards "Show HN" posts when I'm browsing HN. There's quite a few who actually use Bulma: Divjoy, Sinous, Open-Registry, Pino… I'm really amazed by those hacking articles, like the retro video game console [1] or sorting 2 metric tons of Lego [2]. I've also come across very useful tools that have saved me lots of trouble, like this automatic subtitle synchronizer [3] or this iTunes replacement [4]. My favourite will still be "Spot the Drowning Child" [5], so incredibly useful.

It goes on the same list as the person who made their own video game console on breadboards: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19393279
These are the most inspiring HN posts. They’re not marketable startup ideas, but the “lone hacker” working on something huge that I wouldn’t even consider, and then getting it to work, is very impressive.
