Biohazard Chef's terminalVelocity

1. The Burnout Preventer: “TerminalVelocity”

Type: Desktop or Mobile Companion App (Health/Wellbeing)

The Problem:
“Developer Burnout” is a frequent topic on r/cscareerquestions. Coders suffer from specific physical issues: eye strain (Computer Vision Syndrome), RSI (Repetitive Strain Injury), and “flow state” dehydration. Generic health apps feel too “medical” or “yoga-mom” for this demographic.

Target Audience:
Software engineers, gamers, and data scientists who sit for 8+ hours.

Core Features:

• The “20-20-20” Enforcer: A timer that specifically reminds users to look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds every 20 minutes (standard optometry advice).
• Posture Checks: Uses the phone’s selfie camera (with permission) to detect if the user is “shrimping” (hunching over) and alerts them. Note: If this is too hard, use a simple timed reminder.
