Show HN: Magistrate – Plaintext legal contracts for developers
I made this because I think that if contracts were written in plain text files and managed more like software, from version control to IDEs, lawyers would work more quickly and intelligently for their clients, saving them money.<p>But the entire practice of transactional law is stuck on Microsoft Word. My clients are mostly technology companies with an appetite for innovation. With their encouragement, I am moving my own legal practice away from formats like Microsoft Word and into plain text.<p>Electronic signatures of plain text contracts is the starting point for that effort. The MVP is this developer API.<p>If the reception to this product is positive, I'll continue to release the products that I build. In time, my hope is that plain text will supplant Microsoft Word in the drafting, negotiation and execution of contracts.

Show HN: Web page that parses and explains the label on a bike tire
History: Last year I had to replace the tire on my bike, and I was surprised how difficult it was to find a suitable new tire. There were a lot of numbers written on the casing, so I googled what they meant. In the end I was successful, but I didn't want to do the same work again for the next bike after I've forgotten the details. So I wrote this website.<p>Technically, the web page is kept very simple, no frameworks, no templates, no website builder. It uses HTML5, CSS and JavaScript, and it privides a responsive layout for mobile usage.<p>I'm happy to receive feedback. If you have tried the label of your bike tire, and it doesn't work, please post it as well. Thanks!
