To fit on a trailer (the mushroom's cap is 11.5ft wide) the cap comes off the stem and the edges of the cap are two half-moons which have fixed mounting points where threaded rod sticks through some welded washers, and a nut is put on in place. I was too last minute to install the 200 WS2811 pixels and have them run some cool patterns, before the music festival I brought it to came time, but even just a lantern on top (another painters tarp covered the cap's metal-frame, and everything was spray painted) looked great.
Super fun project. Expensive, but I learned a lot, got to be creative, and I'm happy to try out new things and make the best of my before-children time. Also, it was such a joy seeing people croud around the mushroom (and site beside the mushroom man inside) at night during the festival.

The unique angle here is that each article includes a hand-written summary explaining why the article was meaningful to the curator. This gives you a quick window into the piece without being overwhelming.
Since this is a free website mostly to be shared with friends and family, I implemented user login via "phone number" to save and submit articles, but without a one-time token. So it's "password-less" for now; a trust-based system.
It's basically 'done' - but I'm not sure that I want to share it publicly for the aforementioned reasons. I've been using it on my subway rides to read more interesting stuff. So far so good.

I built a complete platform over the past 3 years, that doesn't require a subscription and you only pay for what you send. Give it a go if you need to send a document that needs to be signed.

Since launching https://grizzlybulls.com in January 2022:
Model | Return | Max drawdown
-------------------
S&P 500 (benchmark) | 21.51% | -27.56%
VIX TA Macro MP Extreme | 64.21% | -16.48%
VIX TA Macro Advanced| 59.13% | -19.12%
VIX TA Advanced | 35.20% | -22.96%
VIX Advanced | 33.39% | -23.93%
VIX Basic | 24.29% | -24.23%
TA - Mean Reversion | 22.30% | -19.92%
TA - Trend | 27.07% | -24.98%
This is an unleveraged, apples to apples comparison. These are not high frequency trading models. Most of them only change signal once every 2-4 weeks on average. During long signals, the models are simply long the S&P 500 and during short signals, they go to cash.
One of the pros of this macro swing-trading/hedging style is high tax efficiency, by holding a core ETF long position that never gets sold and then selling S&P 500 futures (ES or MES) of equal value to the ETFs against the long position. This way your account will accumulate unrealized capital gains indefinitely and you'll only pay tax on the net result of successful hedging. The cherry on top is that the S&P 500 futures are section 1256 contracts that are taxed at 60% long term / 40% short term capital gains rates regardless of the duration they are held.
The models use a variety of indicators, many of them custom built. Most important are various VIX metrics (absolute level, VIX futures curve shape/slope, divergences against S&P 500 price, etc), trend-following TA metrics (MACD, EMV, etc), mean-reversion TA metrics (Bollinger Bands, CMO, etc), macroeconomic (unemployment, housing starts, leading composite), and monetary policy (yield curve inversion, equity risk premium, dot plot, etc). They've been backtested very cautiously to avoid overfitting to the best of my ability.

It's essentially a simpler, read-only, AWS dashboard where everything is a filterable, searchable, exportable-to-CSV table, with some extra features like multi-region mode, saved notes, and a debugger for access denied errors.
It uses the AWS SDK for JavaScript, so everything is run client-side from your browser. I'm not 100% sure what direction I'm taking it yet, but it's been fun to hack on!

Currently trying to reduce costs by switching from using DeepL (high quality, low latency, high cost) everywhere to a hybrid that also uses Claude (high quality, high latency, low cost) for text that is far from the user. Also experimenting with Gemma 2 9B via Groq to go in between them, but it's bad at following instructions and I don't quite trust the quality numbers I'm seeing for it (they're benchmarked with gpt-4o as a judge).
I'm also trying to work out marketing. I'm not good at it, and I dislike it, but I need to get good at it. Currently considering Reddit ads for awareness, some content marketing going over the technical details (there's some fun language processing and performance optimisations), and... I feel that's not enough, but I'm not sure what to add to that.
I'm running on very little budget (I just left school and I'd rather not go into my limited savings over this), so I can't afford to just throw money at ads.

I developed a very simple compiler to specify flashcard content. Anything inside brackets is considered the "back" of the flashcard (cloze) in Anki. The @n references the nth group in the canvas, and copies those svg paths into the flashcard.
Example card:
How do you solve for x in this problem?
@0 // handwritten text of 2x = 4
[
Divide both sides by 2, them simplify

Recently I have been working on the low-code UI. I find myself looking up and typing the same pandas (and polars) incantations over and over again to explore and modify data. The low-code UI allows simple transforms of data (search, remove column outliers, show only outliers of a column, group by) to be perfromed with just clicks. You can also view the generated python code. This is powered by a json-flavored lisp interpreter, but users never have to type lisp code.

There are some electronic Catan builds out there, but I found them really expensive -- e.g. opting for a smartwatch screen + microcontroller for every game tile (of which there are 19). Beautiful, yes -- but not my style.
Instead, I went for 8-segment displays for numeric tile values, and RGB LEDs to display terrain types. It adds up to 342 LEDs to control for the full board, from a single central microcontroller. When you turn it on, it sets up the board for you. Pressing a central button "rolls the dice", and it will flash the tiles that produce resources as per the game rules. Or cue special actions on certain rolls.
I really enjoy cost-optimizing prototypes, so this was good fun. I got it down to about USD 20 for a single, ready-to-play unit, including solid brass game pieces (it helps that I'm in Asia). I still use the deck of cards from Catan for now, but plan to replace it with something sci-fi themed. Maybe "Asteroid Miners".
The only thing I'm not 100% satisfied with is that the board is a little cramped -- it's a bit over half the size of the original Catan board. The PCBs had to fit within 100mx100mm -- I used a bit of a weird PCB geometry so that the board is composed of 3 identical subunits, rotated a few degrees to maximize it's surface area within a 100mm square.
I'm not planning to sell it. I just had a slow month, so it's a good time to learn to do new things. I never make any money with hardware, but I love how whimsical electronics can brighten someone's day. Sometimes that earns me a client -- and if not, it's cheap entertainment for me that keeps my skills sharp and my morale high.

I'm currently adding an automated AI translation feature to my custom static site generator, so that I can translate the website to multiple languages and reach more people. I'm trying to make the process as seamless and automated as possible, because I'm running this website solo, and there are only so many hours in a day.
It's a surprisingly tricky endeavour! As usual, the first 80% are easy. It's getting the last 20% right that requires a lot of work. There are so many small hurdles. For instance, translating the URL structure and translating the URLs within the content, getting the translations to be accurate, getting the SEO right, translating the templates and the JS tools I've built, keeping the costs low.

That idea has actually never left my mind though, and now, a few decades later, I've started to realize that if I don't get on it soon, I probably never will.

If you work at any of those industries and pay a lot for data transfer, please reach out! I'm trying to talk to as many people as possible to make sure JSON BinPack fits their use case well (I'm trying to build a business around it).
It was originally designed during my (award-winning!) research at the University of Oxford (https://www.jviotti.com/dissertation.pdf), and it was proven to be more space-efficient than any tested alternative in every single tested case (https://arxiv.org/abs/2211.12799), beating Protocol Buffers for up to ~75%.
While designing it was already difficult, implementing a C++ production-ready version has proven to be very tricky, leading me to branch off to various other pre-requisite projects, like an ultra-fast JSON Schema compiler for nano-second schema validation (https://github.com/sourcemeta/jsontoolkit) (for which I'm publishing a paper soon).

There's been a lot of innovation in build tools for other languages recently: turborepo, nx, poetry. Also Monorepo build tools like Bazel, Pants, or Buck. Mill aims to bring a lot of those innovations to the JVM ecosystem which is currently dominated by old stalwarts like Maven (circa 2004) or Gradle (2008), which although improving definitely have the weight of legacy holding back their potential
Mill brings things like automatic task caching, side-effect-free build tasks, automatic parallalization, automatic detection of task dependencies, task sandboxing/isolation, and other things that are table stakes in modern build tools, along with a concise strongly typed build language with excellent IDE support to make condiguring your build easy and safe (no more yaml!)

SDFs are very cool in general, and widely used in the generative art communities, but kinda hard to wrangle when you're writing shader code directly. They really are functions, but GLSL doesn't support first-class functions, so if you want to compose shapes you have to manually plumb a bunch of arguments around. So Bauble is essentially a high-level GLSL compiler that lets you model SDFs as first-class values, and as a result you can make a pretty cool 3D shape in just a few lines of code. And then 3D print them!
I need to do some actual work to promote and publicize it once I'm done with the documentation and implement a few more primitives, but it's very close!
The docs have lots of examples of the sorts of things you can do with SDFs: https://bauble.studio/help/
And for examples of some "art" that I've made with it recently:

Much of the GLSL is Creative Commons fragments from ShaderToy written by brilliant artist coders from around the world. ImGui and an associated node editor library for the GUI, OpenFrameworks handles the graphics APIs. This is my first serious foray into shaders, C++, and OpenGL, meaning if I can ship a product and it helps one single artist then I'll walk away very happy.
I'm standing on the shoulders of giants with this one. Huge gratitude and respect for Inigo (IQ), Omar (ocornut), and Michal (thedmd).

It's a hard scifi novel with mild existential horror tones that is borne mostly of maths jokes. At one point the main character tries to escape the matrix (reality). But the matrix is defective, so the best way out was to orthogonalize the subspace and reduce the matrix to its eigenbasis instead. Most of the scenes are based on similar maths jokes.

This weekend I got an idea to create a 2D-pattern from a 1D initial pattern. I put it on https://ige.land/, and I find it very fun and satisfying to play around with. It's not so elegant and pretty, but it's fun for me, and that's all I was looking for! Click any cell to change that color in the pattern. Right click or long press to set the length of the 1D pattern. It's also fun to first create a pattern and then resize the browser window to see how it looks like.
So, what I'm working on is not really an interesting project or product. I'm working on my creativity, playing with code, and in general having more fun with programming. Making it magical for myself again.
I'm not sure if it's 100% in line with the spirit of the thread, but it's what I'm most excited to be working on! :-)

It tries to deal with alert fatigue via some nice de-duplication techniques (via customisable aggregation and correlation rules), manages and runs detection rules against different logging platforms (Elastic, Splunk and ALA/Azure) with Validation and Simulation testing, and will lower the time that it takes to determine malicious activity by presenting as much relevant information per security alert as possible.

It lets you use whatever you’re already doing for auth, and lets you become an oauth provider, or issue tokens instead of people passing API keys, on top of that.
The more interesting aspect of that you could use it to bolt on an entire app store or ecosystem on top of your existing product or api.

I had the idea for a website where you can play chess puzzles, but if you make the wrong move, the puzzle turns into a game against Stockfish.

I'm also re-acquainting myself with Verilog so I can do an ASIC prototype through TinyTapeout. The main question that I hope to answer is just how much power a bitgrid cell actually consumes, both static and dynamic. If it's low enough, then it'll give Petaflops to the masses, if not.. it's a curiosity.
Along that path, I've learned that the configuration memory for the LUTs is going to consume most of the silicon. Since it's all just D flip-flops... I figured I could dual-use it as memory without loss of generalization. You can virtually add 2 bytes of memory in a cell in any of the 4 directions... so I call it IsoLinear Memory.[2] ;-)
I should be able to make the deadline for TinyTapeout 9, in November. Meanwhile I'll update my emulator to include Isolinear Memory, and figure out how to program the damned thing. My stretch goal is to figure out how to program it from TinyGrad.[3].
If nothing else, it'll be good for real time DSP.

Basically, my rhythm-based roguelike on original NES now has a proper economy, with gold gain and shops to spend the gold in. It also now supports PAL and Dendy systems, which is especially wonky due to the different framerate, but helped a bit by this being a rhythm game. As long as the music plays at the correct tempo, the rest of the game adapts its speed and "feels" correct at the lower framerate.
Tons of work left to do, most of it pixel art (I'm learning as I go) but it's progressing quite nicely.

It will probably be licensed with some open source license like GPL or MIT. Right now there really isn't much functionality, but i hope that it someday will be as good as other existing CAS tools like Maple and WolframAlpha.

This is a project I started to scratch an itch I had at work. We use jira there, and our setup is such that it takes about 8-10 seconds to load a page. So to make things more usable, the local_jira downloads the data from the server, saves it in a local database, and make it available. jira_gui is a simple gui for it.

I always thought the idea was somewhat weak, but not enough to discard entirely. So, along with a friend, I built a prototype over the last two weeks, and now we're trying to validate it: https://scanningfox.com/
I'm enjoying using Elixir for this project. As a long-time Erlang dev, I was initially skeptical about Elixir, but Phoenix.LiveView has changed my opinion.

I'm working on an exercise database and a strength training app.
Two years ago I tore my meniscus and had to go through physical therapy. The experience was eye-opening! Before PT, I thought I was relatively fit because I wasn't overweight, walked a bit, and went to yoga 1-2 times a week. At PT, the therapists basically told me, "You tore your meniscus because you're weak." I had just turned 40. I noticed that I could tweak my back if I sneezed wrong. My mental model of myself hadn't caught up with the stressors of aging that were set upon me. I had never been much into weight lifting before, but I needed to update the way I was taking care of myself.
I didn't know many strength training exercises. Like any good engineer, I started to build a database. It's free and open source:
https://github.com/longhaul-fitness/exercises
I needed a way to track my workouts, so I started to build an app. Over time the app grew beyond tracking my workouts to planning them too.
The app isn't for sale yet; I'm just looking for testers now. Sign up at the first link and try it out for free. Let me know what you think if you want to have a hand shaping the app that's worked for me for two years and counting. I love talking about strength training. Email welcome!

Last year i wrote a novel about what it'd be like if you were the parent of a teenage superhero, but all you saw was the aversion to touch, panic attacks, unexplained absences, and falling grades (they're obviously lying to you about what the problem is, but you don't know why!).
And how would you handle discovering that it wasn't drugs or her being a victim of assault, but was instead so much worse: that she's the one fighting for her life on the news all the time?
I've just started writing my second, which is superheroes arguing over what to do about one of the villains, who turned good and helped them defeat a Big Bad. The story is still in early stages, so there's plenty more ideas to come up with still.
For a stay at home dad like me, writing is really enjoyable as a hobby because I can do it at the soccer fields while my kids practice for two hours, or I can do it while they're at a gym playing, or at night when they're asleep. I don't have to schedule out a three-hour block to meet up with buddies for tennis a month in advance.

The idea is that mindset is important in the morning, and that we all want to do these healthy habits - meditation and yoga - and yet when life get's stressful, it's easy to fall out of a healthy rhythm.
I've been doing deep study about affirmations, our sub-conscious mind, and how to use repetition to change yourself - absolutely fascinating and effective. This Affirmatpr tool can help reduce the effects of depression & anxiety, help you set & internalize goals and habits for your dream life.
If anyone is interested in trying it out - I've got a prototype which can create customized affirmation sessions, and layer it on top of a calm music backing track)
Tech stack: Python / Django (soon) / Text to speech: ElevenLabs & Piper TTS. The automation currently runs with 'cron' on MacOS and Shortcuts.app/Music.app on iPhone.
Everything is open-source (Codeberg) and can run locally instead of cloud hosted, so maximum people can benefit (and so you can set private goals/affirmations that perhaps you don't want everyone to hear about).
I would love to meet others who would be interested in contributing / collaborating, as there is huge potential here. My contact is in my profile.

I'm running this project solo, and while it's been rewarding, there are challenges in scaling and sustaining it—like covering operational costs (~€20 per city per month) and expanding to more locations. I'm planning to eventually monetize through partnerships with promoters and venues, but for now, I'm looking for feedback or suggestions on improving the platform and reaching a wider audience without compromising on the user experience. Any insights or critiques from the community would be greatly appreciated.

Our goal is to provide complete observability into player behavior, detect cheaters and griefers, and help game developers improve player retention.
Some key features we're working on:
- AI-powered analysis of in-match player actions to detect anomalies
- Customizable rules engine for automated responses to toxic behavior
- Visual replay system for reviewing flagged matches
Check out our website at https://www.getgud.io and watch our detection video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5EhTpfEzh1M to see Getgud.io in action.
We support server-side integration for popular platforms like Unreal Engine and Unity.
For integration guides and SDK references, visit our docs at https://github.com/getgud-io/getgud-docs.
Happy to chat more about game analytics and cheat detection if anyone's interested!

You start by learning the words: It augments the repetition aspect of Anki with added context to the words (random example sentences for each work, each time). I curated / generated the set of words in advance. Then you move to practice these words in chat about different topics (soon voice conversation as well). You get a feedback in each turn about what your mistakes, without interrupting the chat.
I am using DeepL for translation (I am not liking it though, since it is very narrow strict definitions. I will be exploring OpenAI for that soon). For chat, OpenAI GPT-4o.
This is my first webapp. I used HTMX + AlpineJS, Python, Supabase (Auth, S3, DB), and hosting on my PI.
It's work in progress, but I need to start finding core users to give feedback. I am not really sure how though. I had some tough experiences on Reddit and Discord (understandable tbh).

My app can handle landscapes of hundred of thousands of images at once. The last major feature addition was the ability to handle video files. These are presented as a collection of still frames within the "world". Currently I am trying to find bugs within the media loading scheduler mechanism.
The work is quite hard, because despite good installation numbers (pypi) and clones (github), there's literally no feedback whatsoever (bugs, questions etc). If this is because of the adult-use aspect or if this is normal I can't tell but would suggest the first reason. So I have to come up with possible problems people might have all by myself. Any feedback is highly welcomed!

I'm working on an open-source web app to visualize barbell lifts.
Basically trying to provide the best motivation and resources to help people invest in their physical strength which is crucial to health and longevity.
I'm keeping it strictly based on user Google Sheet data - because over the years I've changed apps and it's always hard to get your data out.
So far I have:
- lots of charts
- an cgpt wrapper to talk to your lifting data and get lifting advice
- the best strength calculators (in my opinion)
- a strength ranking system for squat, bench press, deadlift and strict press.
Tech stack:
- Next.js on Vercel
- ShadcnUI components (the charts are great)
- nextauth
- Tailwind CSS

Instead of replacing the entire document or selection, we want it to create diffs or operations for the minimal amount of edits as possible. This helps preserve intent better when merging the doc later on with OT/CRDTs. (Of course, you could also ask GPT to semantically merge docs for you haha).
So far, it's been harder than plain text or spreadsheets which have an easier position/coordinate system to work with: just line-col or row-col.
Rich text is usually stored as trees with json or html. Have seen a paper (https://www.inkandswitch.com/peritext/) that represents it as a flat array.
Difference in approach would then be: is it easier for gpt to work with diffs or with operations/tool calls?

It tracks every word and kanji you read to show you what you need to learn in order to read something new. It assembles your own personal corpus of example sentences as you read too, and will soon show you "i + 1" sentences to learn. No AI slop, just native immersion.

The plan is to make a threejs site where I can display all my favorite games with models of their original packaging and instruction manuals.
An interesting aspect of the research is that almost all published games are bad or mediocre.
Wikipedia knows about ~800 video games published in the year 2000. Of those, only ~300 either piqued my interest based on description or had reviews above ~70% positive.
I eliminated more of those based on personal interest (realistic flying or sports are not very interesting to me). And even more by watching videos of gameplay.
The level of polish and artistry vary enormously.
I’ve got a list of <100 games I’m very interested in, still. Which is a lot! But the breakdown is interesting to me.

* UX & UI: enhance the information hierarchy, menus, create a new visual identity.

Something fun about being into niche subjects in computer science is that the textbooks for them have very low resale value. As a result, you can make "best offers" on eBay for 1/2 or even less than the suggested price, and it will likely be accepted since the seller really just wants to get rid of them.
I've been taking advantage of this and purchased a bunch of obscure concurrency theory books that I've been reading through.

- Import/export (specifically from Japan to the US): In particular, importing kei vehicles >25 years old as well as specialty roasted coffee. Both of which have a lot of specific regulations and intricacy, and while I've done a lot of reading on how to do them (e.g. this doc on importing a kei truck: https://wittymelon.wordpress.com/portfolio/diy-how-to-import...).

While doing everything on a breadboard was fine for a quantity of 1, I thought about building some more and gifting them to friends. For that, a custom PCB to place the ESP on, and screw it into the housing would be nice.
So... I'll need to learn to create a simple PCB with KiCad and then have it produced with one of the online services.

But we quickly realized something interesting—our users prefer spending time directly on social media rather than bouncing between a SaaS platform. So we went back to the drawing board to rethink how we could truly make this experience better.
With SocialiQ 2.0 We’ve made it possible to qualify influencers directly within social media, cutting out the hassle. On October 8th, we’re launching a version that’s not only smarter but also faster and easier to use. Over 20,000 marketers already love SocialiQ, but this update is going to take things to the next level.
We can’t wait to show you what’s next. If you want early access, join the waitlist on Product Hunt [1].

This is my side project because I needed an app like this for my daily use and I hate the fact that every other good app is paid even though maintaining such an app really doesn't cost anything.
Zipshot solves several problems:
- Easy to use shortcuts like cmd+shift+1
- No desktop clutter as images are uploaded to Zipshot cloud.
- Share via links.
- Powerful editor and figma style comments for annotations.
- OCR that works without the internet on 11 languages.
- Slack & Gmail integration.
- Context aware naming.
- Serious privacy measures.
- One click data download.
- Users who take 5+ screenshots a week with mostly the purpose of sharing it with their team or friends.
- Make the on-boarding and permission seeking workflow simpler.
- Speed up the app for apple silicon devices.
- Support OCR for rotated text and include more languages.

It's a leadership development platform, aimed at new managers who want to do it right. I'm solo bootstrapping it.
It has a combination of learning resources (courses, research paper insights etc) and tools.
While the learning resources are for helping you with knowledge, the tooling aspect is for developing the right habits for staying a good leader.

The ML project is probably the most interesting. It is seeking to use evolutionary/genetic algorithms with novel computational substrates such as spiking networks and Turing machines. Things that would (by intent) run poorly on someone's GPU farm. I figure I might get lucky looking under rocks no one seems to care about anymore.

Lots of people have visited but a launch on HN isn’t enough on its own. I’m trying to figure out how to get the word out to more people to kickstart it. The goal is for it to be a community that people return to as part of their daily online life. That’s not a programming problem so it’s hard (for me).

Still quite a bit of work to do but I wanted something that could be a one-stop shop for all kinds of 2D games. So you could use it to make something as varied as say UFO 50 [0] or any of the arcade games from the 1980s-90s.
I've always thought there should be more genre-specific "editors" instead of just "engines". Because even with the most powerful engines you still need a TON of boilerplate and Google-fu to make all the basic mid-layer stuff that’s necessary in almost all games.
The editors and toolkits that came with StarCraft, Warcraft 3 etc. enabled solitary creators to make some of the most popular games in the world like DotA, CounterStrike, even spawning entire new genres..
And I’ve always loved the “composition” paradigm: A workflow where you’d think about the basic behaviors that your in-game objects and characters will have, write them once, and then wire them together in many different ways.
And Godot has been the perfect starting place for that! Its editor is good enough and customizable, and its node hierarchy system fits perfectly with the idea of Lego-like components. I wanted to make something like Godot Nodes but for gameplay.
Hopefully soon I will have my ideal engine to actually make my actual game… :’)

Here's a gallery of sample outputs from the algorithm:

I have an online demo of the algorithm in action for different tilesets (it's a little rough, so be warned):
https://zzyzek.github.io/PunchOutModelSynthesis/
The idea is you take an example image, chop it into little segments and infer tile rules depending on the overlap. It's very much old fashioned "machine learning/artificial intelligence" (that is, without any neural networks involved). There's also a demo of tile rule inference idea here:

Now I am a bit afraid I might have just added a bit too much flexibility in the latest version with the `process` module which truly lets users create and modify 'function-like' objects like regular objects (arrays).
The feature came naturally from trying to solve the problem of creating reactive functions. This really entails building up functions incrementally. Now once I pursued the solution in the logical direction, we have this dangerous thing that is generally considered bad for maintainability.
My goal has always been more simplicity, expressiveness and clarity, which is why I wanted to put everything in the hands of the end user. It is a dilemma.

For the dance calendar, support site with good first-line AI support based on FAQ answers.
Ad management platform for the dance calendar. Sites like this have specific requirements for placing ads that are not well supported by AdSense etc. I would like to have an alternative for smaller players for the header bidding used by the larger players.
Separate webapp to store happenings (messages, emails, descriptions, documents, etc.), tag them and show them on a timeline, allowing filtering the events visible on the timeline. Django/HTMX/AlpineJS. This is for a legal battle I am having.

- Major house renovation. Air sourced heat pumps are in, but the kitchen, a bathroom, and a bedroom are WIP. Subfloor, insulation, and drywall are the current focus. Also replumbing domestic cold and hot water in the entire house. Adding a brand new backup condensing gas hydronic system for when it's too cold for the heat pumps.
- Building a rear bumper for my 80 series Land Cruiser (4x4 Labs DIY kit).
- Building a press brake for my 20 ton shop press to bend some brackets to mount a backhoe to my tractor.
- Rustproofing both cars (80 series and diesel W210 Benz) before winter. Rust reformer primer, POR-15, and various Noxudol waxes and some Blaster Shield. New front and rear bumpers for the W210, painting front and (new) rear bumper on the 80.
- Working on something I'm tentatively calling "Swage" which is all about compact (think: nearly the information-theoretic minimum number of bits) representation for o11y data (metrics, traces, logs).
- Refactoring a PID controller crate I wrote a while back to be less bad and more good (in particular, trying to use funty to make it generic over fixed and floating point numbers).

1. After the recent successful growth of Antithesis [1], I'm diving into the topic of deterministic simulation testing. There are some cases (and ready-to-use libraries) where people are doing this in Rust, C++, Go, I'm interesting in this in Java. So I'm up to some experiments. I've also started an "awesome list" of resources about this topic [2]
2. I've made a generated serialization/deserialization library for the Kafka wire protocol in Rust, tested against the original Java implementation. I'll add 3.9 support once it's released and don't see much upcoming changes to the library, apart from maybe working on the Go version.

The core architecture is split into two components: a timestamping signing service and a P2P gossip network. By decoupling the gossip network, I'm simulating its performance using a Monte Carlo approach. With a basic gossip protocol, the simulation reaches ~10k TPS on a 100-node, randomly connected network (not fully connected), and I see a lot of potential for further protocol optimizations.
Initially, I considered a more resource-intensive approach using Shadow [2] for more realistic node simulations, as outlined in this discussion on libp2p's Gossipsub stress metrics [3]. However, the Monte Carlo method allows me to simulate the network more efficiently without needing to deploy full nodes.
In parallel, I'm exploring game-theoretical concepts for selecting signers and ensuring the system remains open to new entrants. One paper I'm currently diving into is "Collusion, Efficiency, and Dominant Strategies" [4].

I've found that it's difficult to distribute metrics inside an organization. Today, most teams rely on systems like PowerBI / Tableau which are great for deep analysis, but can be too complex for sharing headline data to a large audience. Or, even more challenging, data can be locked in spreadsheets that are difficult to access when all you want to know is a few simple metrics like revenue or customer growth.
With Datagram, developers can quickly create data dashboards, update them via API, and push updates to the whole team on mobile using notifications.
Has anyone experienced similar challenges and does this sound interesting? It would be great to hear any feedback as we're early stage and want to make sure we're building something people want!

Many of the sensors and connections are small enough that I could have spun another PCB to replace the VOC/NOx module it comes with[1], but SGP41 ain't cheap & I wouldn't dare to desolder one from the existing module. So instead I'm going to try to use the extension I/O connector AG board has. Am currently waiting for my PCBs to arrive.
Speaking of PCBs. It is wonderful that it is possible to get 5 units of a prototype for a price of a coffee or two.

I considered both multi-projector setup as well as single projector based on a fisheye lens and have decided to go with the later due to ease of use as well as cost. But getting the right lens in my corner of the world is proving to be near impossible. There is a specific lens that is suggested but the original manufacturers have no stock and the only used lens available on US eBay is proving impossible to order. So, that is where I am stuck at: twiddling my thumbs.

It's kind of niche but I'm doing more and more automation on my side, to efficiently build custom one-off layout editors for my clients. Some have surprisingly specific wants (for example : "multi-player live google-slides like editor, but constrained to brand guidelines and layout systems with block-level pick and place across all documents").
I am having lots of fun with that and am trying to move from one-off bespoke systems to a common base + client-specific code.
Edit : it's 90% Elixir and designed to run both on-prem or as a managed service.

The enclosure for the camera is all 3D printed and made in fusion 360, and I even 3D printed a little box that a cheap joystick fits into that connects to a computer in order to control the position and zoom of the camera over serial.
I live pretty close to an area in San Francisco where you can see massive container ships coming in and out of the bay area, eventually I think it would be cool to have the camera setup somewhere around there so that I could get alerts when ships are entering or leaving the area and watch in real time over a 4G connection to the camera.

A typical user journey involves hustling through Instagram, Google, or word-of-mouth to find the right experts. And then they have to talk to multiple expert providers to align on scope, negotiate the price, and hope the service quality matches their expectations. It’s painful and full of friction right?
With Tribe, we aim to transform this user journey from a chore into a delightful experience. Think of it like closest one can get to an “Amazon for services”.

An AI parent filter, which can remove and modify page content in real time. It's designed for kids using their first computer, and is fully launched (although only available on Windows right now).
Admittedly we're looking for seed funding and may not stay open forever, but the tech itself is really cool, and we get really strong positive reactions from parents once they learn you can use this to filter out quasi-political content in addition to adult/graphic content. We're entering an age where all content can be modified in real time, and I think Parent Controls Win still has a lot of potential.

My business partner and I spent so much time analyzing hundreds of properties to understand if the numbers work for investment properties. We then built a workflow that sends regular emails with a table with all the numbers calculated for us, based on rent estimates.
We’ve onboarded a couple of people so far and are onboarding more investors and agents next week.
We also added a red flag analyzer using LLMs for each property which we hope to expand into hard to reach data (government records) as well as the data we pull from public sites.
Feel free to DM me or sign up on our website and we’ll reach out. We’re iterating a lot and value your feedback!

The idea is that if you're a highly experienced senior developer, it should feel oddly familiar. It aims to address every possible concern that a senior developer might have when building a web application.
Avoiding footguns is one of the core principles behind it.
It aims to strike the ideal balance between flexibility and simplicity. It's not for building rough prototypes; it lets you build apps that are more secure, more performant, more scalable and more maintainable than the ones you would write from scratch.

It seems people don't really have a need for managing prompts outside the code https://x.com/cmenge/status/1830534838681485728
Also, proxying for larger co's requires certifications etc., plus stellar 24/7 operations, making this a less-than-ideal side project. I might add some content indexing + RAG features, but also not exactly a new idea...

Basically a simple way to CRUD dicts to disk without needing a separate database (uses SQLite underneath). I've always liked MongoDB ease of use, and in many quick hacks/projects I don't want to write custom SQL or bring in a proper ORM or install a db server.
TBH the main motivation is to just work on a simple side project with no stress, no need to productize it, and no need to obsess over productivity / can tinker to my heart's content.
Mostly done now tho, so probably will do something else next month :)

Sciter offers access to OpenGL as by WebGL/JS as by native OpenGL API access.
Idea is simple: pretty much any 3D application needs some form of 2D UI/Chrome. And so Sciter.GLX provides just that - HTML/CSS/JS UI with <webgl> islands.
Sciter.GLX is also about direct support of as Wayland as X11 on Linux.

Here is an example[0] in 6k resolution from two weeks ago done with just text conditioning. The controlnet elevates the precision even more up to 99%, the last 1% is easier fixed in post. Which isn't optimal but a good way to go for now.

1. Background sync of repo state/PRs/issues/etc.
2. Ability to do "optimistically updates" when creating/editing PRs/issues etc.
The short to medium plan is to implement a CLI interface. But I hope to abstract the core into something that can be compiled to wasm such that a web UI that has optimistic updates everywhere, and is "offline first".
I'm doing this post to see if folks have seen similar projects around, I'd prefer not to build something that's already built.

- Go to aquarium, look in tank, put glasses in info mode via a gesture to see the names of the fish in the tank. Learn more about them then on my phone.
- Have glasses keep score of any real life game you are playing from pickleball, to a card game to any game that has a score and requires vision to keep track of it.
Guess i could start creating such on the Vision Pro. Im thinking either idea will be created and or built into the smart glass winner but hmm maybe they are lame ideas..

The general premise is that most sufficiently advanced yaml configs begin to look like code - e.g. in Github Actions one could look at external Actions and shared workflows as dynamic libraries; workflows as public functions; jobs and steps as internal ones.
We have better languages than yaml-structure-as-a-code, and tools to help us write and test them quicker.

But all the solution out there were quite complex to input data, and I just want to write down plain text with some additional markup and be able to generate some graphs and recognize some patterns out it.
Decided to do it T3 and throw in all those weird technologies just to see what's out there.

After last one, I was done, left my job and started building Recon Wave [0]. I want to build tooling that will monitor your infra for you and find vulnerable / misconfigured / forgotten things that can be easily exploited.
I believe that security is best applied in layers and we're building one of them. We can not protect you from everything, but we can protect you from shooting yourself in the leg.
Me & my co-founder decided to take a bit different approach from other attack surface management companies and we try to find patterns in the whole OSINT world (aka most misconfigurations, domain correlations and others). Among others, we scrapped most of DNS and now have pretty cool reverse DNS dataset [1].
