Desamber is a time format invented by Devine lu linvega. Each year has 26 months of 14 days each. Each month is denoted by a letter of the alphabet: A - Z. Each day is divided into 1,000,000 pulses. For example, noon is 500:000, 6AM is 250:000 and 6PM is 750:000. "In the decimal format, the shortest pulse equals 86.4 milliseconds, the second shortest 864ms and so on. 1 beat, or 1000 pulses, is equivalent to 86.4 seconds, or about 1m26s. A second is equivalent to 11.57 short pulses." - Devine -- This app shows a visual representation of the Desamber time format on iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. Questions or comments?

Ever wondered if that 'urgent' message from your boss is legit, or if your friend's quirky text was actually sent by them? In this era of digital trickery, ShakeMyHand is here to help. It's a nifty app that cuts through the noise, ensuring that the person texting you for your weekend plans or the team member pinging you for a last-minute meeting is the real deal. No more second-guessing texts or emails. With ShakeMyHand, peace of mind is just a quick verification away, keeping your digital conversations authentic and worry-free. Safeguard financial transactions with colleagues, friends, and family: Before sending bank transfers or sending money through apps like Venmo or PayPal based on an e-mail, text request, or phone call, use ShakeMyHand to confirm it's truly your colleague or friend asking. Verify messages from family members: When you receive unusual requests or messages from family members, especially in urgent situations, ShakeMyHand can confirm their authenticity. Team data security: Need to swap login details or API keys in your team? With ShakeMyHand's easy passphrases, team members can make sure they're sharing sensitive info with the right people, keeping everything tight and secure, especially in remote setups. Grant roles and permissions securely: When a team member needs new roles or privileges in a tool or system, ShakeMyHand steps in. Just swap a quick passphrase to confirm it's them asking, and you're all set to update access safely. Confirm the identity of remote team members: Before sharing sensitive project details in a virtual team meeting, use ShakeMyHand to ensure you're communicating with the actual team. How does it work? 1. Install the app: First, both you and your contact (be it a friend, colleague, relative, or anyone else) need to download ShakeMyHand on your phones. 2. Scan the QR code: Next time you meet in person, open ShakeMyHand and scan each other's QR code. This is a quick and secure way to exchange digital identifiers, much like modern, secure business card exchange. 3. Synced for life: After scanning, your apps are now paired. From this point on, both phones will generate the same secret three-word passphrase. This passphrase acts as a unique, lifelong password that remains in perfect sync everytime it re-generates. 4. Verification anytime: Now, whenever you need to confirm each other's identity - through text, email, phone calls, or video chats - use your shared passphrase. A matching phrase means you're communicating with the right person, ensuring authenticity in your digital interactions.
