  I'll start with a project by my friends: FXcursion is an STM32-based guitar processor prototype. It has 3 stereo inputs and outputs, builtin effects chain, looper and recording. It lacks proper user interface (we've found a designer last week, so it's in the works now!), and the hardware still needs a lot of changes, but I've been impressed with the progress so far. https://github.com/RATsynthesizers/FXcursion https://github.com/RATsynthesizers/FXcursion

  I am participating in a competition of a wannabe IT guys when some mentor is searching for one such a student. I have summed exactly his proposal which he has published in Russian and all my work and I have ended up with a 19-page whitepaper 6 pages of which describes my original tradebot idea, in English of course. If you know how real tradebots work feel free to help me to enrich my understanding. Current status of my participation is waiting for the day when the winner will be defined. https://github.com/eimrine/resume/blob/main/eimrine-s%20research.pdf https://github.com/eimrine/resume/blob/main/eimrine-s%20rese...

  • sharemywin 3y ago
    You should really just create at least one page talking about each project idea. I use dreamhost because I can host unlimited* websites for like $40 for the year. that way the domains look seasoned in googles eyes.

  I'm working on an LLM-based tool to assist with fiction writing. The goal is to help writers get unstuck in case of writer's block, not to do autonomous writing. One has to enter some abstract of what they want to write, and some text they have so far, and the tool generates possible continuations. It requires quite a bit of editing, maybe 3-4 attempts for each completion if one wants to generate decent text. Feedback was mostly positive from a dozen or so professional writers who tried it out for a day. I feel that it generates more naturally looking text than ChatGPT with the typical prompts. See my profile if you want to try it out. You can use the demo without registration.
  • notpushkin 3y ago
    Nice project! Demo doesn't work for me in Firefox for some reason – I can't type anything into the “Start typing...” field.

  I want to create an intelligent CRM that gets users from your database automatically, and categorizes each user with behaviors. Do you think it is a good idea? I talked with some users but they are choosing traditional CRMs over mine. Is this a wrong positioning or just the idea doesn't solve any problems? Thanks!
  • boredemployee 3y ago

  Does a newsletter without a proper design and a web archive that’s just part of my everyday blog count as half baked? Because if it does then I have https://peopleandblogs.com https://peopleandblogs.com
• steve_wilson 3y ago
  https://invitivo.com https://invitivo.com A website to create digital invitations. Similar purpose as WhatsApp groups for invites, but taking away the noise and adding way more personalized design to the invite. The UI still has lots of issues and I need to i18n the landing page, but it works and a couple of people use it every day already. I‘m spending 2€ per day on google ads to see how my changes to product alter user behavior. It’s a side project and I‘m not planning to squeeze money out of it. Just want the world to celebrate more and I want to experience building a product from zero to „actively used by many people“. Appreciate all feedback and input!
• anon1253 3y ago
  https://github.com/vortext/esther https://github.com/vortext/esther Esther is my personal project to develop a diary app that talks back. Basically. Along the way I learned how to htmx, llama.cpp via JNA and practical experience with LLMs. I suffer from type-1 bipolar disorder with psychoses and normal life just ain't gonna happen. So unemployed, single, #nolife ... I decided to build a chat bot for myself. It's not finished the RAG stuff still needs implementing, but oh well. It's written in Clojure on GraalVM (because I wanted to try polyglot) other than that it's nothing /too/ fancy ... but it feels great having an LLM + UI you can just build the way you like it

    this sounds cool. is it like audio version of hey pi?
• adrianmsmith 3y ago
  https://whenwillirunoutofmoney.com/ https://whenwillirunoutofmoney.com/ I thought it’d be cool to have a small textual language where you could describe “this payment goes out every quarter” and “this one goes out monthly from date X to Y” and so on. As a freelancer it can be difficult to know how much cash you have available given taxes go out at weird times, and it’s useful to simulate “let’s delete this row where the customer pays” to stress test your finances and so on. I also wanted it to be “privacy-first” because I figured I wouldn’t trust my financial data to a random person on the internet, so neither would I expect anyone else to. So I created this site and put it online but I’m a developer, not a marketer. I did a “Show HN”, it got some nice comments but not much traction. Not sure if I should spend effort marketing it. It’s just a free site so I’m only doing this for fun. Or maybe the product is wrong and needs changes e.g. more features. Difficult to know what to do. Advice appreciated!
  • sharemywin 3y ago
    it takes a long time to load. I gave up
    • adrianmsmith 3y ago
      Thanks, yeah that’s not the first time I’ve heard that. On my computer, and I think on most people’s computers, it loads instantly. But on others it basically crashes the tab, like it goes into an infinite loop or something. A bit difficult to test without adding debugging tools, apparently Sentry is a good one?, which would definitely conflict with the privacy-first approach. I’ll have to ask more friends, maybe one of them can reproduce the problem. Anyway thanks for trying it and commenting!

  Here's a couple... This project I made a while ago and never took it further: https://github.com/weinberg/concurrencyRunner https://github.com/weinberg/concurrencyRunner. Concurreny Runner allows you to debug multiple running processes simultaneously, with breakpoints set to allow specific interleaved execution paths to be explored. This allows you to trigger concurrency scenarios which are typically very difficult to analyze because they rely on random timing. That repo has examples which demonstrate typical database concurrency issues of "read skew", "write skew" and "read modify write". I envisioned it as something you could run in CI to actively test for these things like we do other integration testing. This other one is in the sad graveyard of promising projects which I never could devote enough time to: https://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=69545.0 https://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=69545.0. It's an adventure game where I recorded hundreds of panoramic images and stitched them all together into a seamless walkable player experience. One day...
  • akoboldfrying 3y ago

• tikimcfee 3y ago
  https://github.com/tikimcfee/LookAtThat https://github.com/tikimcfee/LookAtThat View, search, and analyze arbitrary source code (best support of Swift right now) in 3D and AR space. You open your phone or tablet, yeet hundreds of files into 3D space, and can start highlighting, moving, and tracing execution by literally walking around your code. The desktop app has similar features, and the standard 3D viewer is just as fun. I would love help - from anyone of any kind - to build this out towards greater usefulness. It’s a lot of fun, it’s super cool to look at, and it’s the thing I’ve wanted to use since I was a small child. “Let me touch the words!!” P.s - the dictionary and word wall samples are fun too P.p.s: there are two versions, and you can download the original SceneKit implementation for both macOS and iOS from the releases section.
  • wordpad25 3y ago
    Maybe, scale the size of the code based on how long it takes to execute that section. Would make it a cool way to find underperforming code.
    • tikimcfee 3y ago
      Love the idea! I really love input like this because it refines and validates what to work on. For example, I really wanted to stick in some kind of scripting console to manage controls, like a more flexible or programmatic way of touching the code live. That’s a bit of my league at the moment though. Feel free to ping me more thoughts!

  I started on a Navidrome/Subsonic/Plex/Jellyfin replacement for my bachelors thesis this year - I haven't had the time to actively work on it since starting work but I really want to as I've been daily driving it for a while and it's lacking in quite a few areas. Just as a warning, not even half of the stuff on the landing page are actually present in Coral but they absolutely will be future. The next thing on the plan is to re-write the UI in React Native so I can take Coral with me on the go. https://coral.nectarine.sh https://coral.nectarine.sh (the download page is inactive, but you can grab a release from the GitHub page if you're so inclined)

  https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/youtube-tab-arranger/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/youtube-tab-a... I built this for personal use, but maybe someone else also finds it useful. It's a Firefox add-on that arranges YouTube video tabs based on the runtime of the video. I often hoard many YouTube tabs and at some point I want to either watch the shortest ones or play something lengthy so I can do household chores while listening to the video. This makes finding the correct video from tens of different tabs so much easier. There is one known major bug: if a video is playing, the sorting doesn't work. There is an older version published for Microsoft Edge, but Edge Add-ons started rejecting the updates based on unclear reasons (something along the lines of "no value for user" ???). When reaching for support through email, I only get responses from people who don't understand English and just copy-paste the exact same unclear rejection report and close the ticket. Chrome Web Store has a publishing fee and outright rejects me paying it, probably because I live in Switzerland and my credit card is from a Finnish bank.

  https://atomictessellator.com https://atomictessellator.com The half baked bits at the moment is full scale automated catalyst discovery, and a bunch of the "glue" code that pulls the different simulations together seamlessly (molecular dynamics, dimer methods, nudged elastic band, retrosynthesis, automated bulk analysis) -- they all exist in various states of development (mostly done) but getting them all to interact totally seamlessly is tricky. Also this is quite computationally intensive hobby, I am often limited by the amount of computing power I have - even though I run a small cluster in my house (384 cpu cores, 4 GPUs, 24TB NAS) I am super excited though, just in the last week I have started to make novel, truely unique catalyst discoveries (that are matching lab validations), so after a year of experimenting "it's working.gif"

  Friend and I built https://druthers.app https://druthers.app, and we use it all the time to solve our own interpersonal disputes, as well as with family and friends. It hasn't got any quality-of-life chrome or meta-features such as logins, or bookmarks. We were reluctant, even, to add the sharing button, since obviously a person is already well-equipped to share a browser tab! (I kid! Of course users cannot be presumed to know the power of the device in their hands.) It's fun, and works great for our purposes. Nothing can compete with it, in my book. Unfortunately, we haven't found a customer worth pleasing and, since we are well-pleased ourselves, we haven't found a reason to approach full-baked.

      A blank screen, or a "loading skeleton"? The app is peer-to-peer, so if none of the recent visitors have hit refresh to become the host the data will no longer be accessible. Terrible UX for you, but forever $0 hosting costs for me.

  Lightrail: https://github.com/lightrail-ai/lightrail https://github.com/lightrail-ai/lightrail Basically, I think that LLMs will enable a whole new set of app UXes, and I'm trying to build a platform for those UXes. In a sense, a "shell" for LLM apps. It's a command-bar style UI with an SDK that makes it really easy to build functionality on top of LLMs / vector-dbs etc and to interact with other software/files (e.g. VSCode, Chrome, etc.). Currently very limited docs but if you're interested in building LLM workflows/tools, I'd love to collab!

  uPlaybook2: https://github.com/linsomniac/uplaybook2 https://github.com/linsomniac/uplaybook2 This is a python-syntax re-imagining of Ansible / Cookiecutter: declarative IT automation and project templating. It's fairly early, but the heart of it is there: I'm able to create files/directories and render templates, running it displays status, I have most of the "magic" implemented that makes it less like Python and more like Ansible. The CLI entry-point is minimal, I need to basically forklift over the uPlaybook1 argument handling code and playbook search/selection. Would love feedback from someone who is familiar with Python and Ansible about the direction of the YAML -> Python for playbook syntax, but I worry that it's too early to even give that. Basically it's uPlaybook (v1) but with the Ansible-inspired YAML playbooks reimagined as Python: https://github.com/linsomniac/uplaybook https://github.com/linsomniac/uplaybook

  Abound: https://abound.art https://abound.art It's a generative art platform/marketplace. You write an algo that generates art according to some number of parameters, upload it as a Docker image, and let other people tinker and generate things they like the aesthetics of. Basically remote code execution as a service, but I spent a lot of time on the sandboxing side of things and feel pretty good about it. The infra is tuned for "saving money" and not "scale", so there's a chance it falls over under even modest load. If folks are interested I can tweak it a bit to make it more scale-y. It's also my HN name, because all the other (one word) ones I could think of were taken.
  • gregschlom 3y ago
    I wanted to build something very similar a while back. Spotify (or Instagram) for generative art. I guess https://www.dwitter.net https://www.dwitter.net is kind of like that as well. But specifically, I wanted to build some sort of revenue sharing for the artists, similar to Spotify's model.
    • abound 3y ago
      Re: revenue sharing - we (my friend who I built this with, and I) were thinking along the same lines, it's actually fully implemented here. If user A uploads an algo, user B generates art with it, and user C buys that art, money will be distributed to user A and user B. Details are here: https://abound.art/artists https://abound.art/artists
  • jw1224 3y ago
    This is really cool! How did you solve the sandboxing?
    • abound 3y ago
      Assuming this isn't an attempt to mine cryptocurrency on it :), here's what I did: - Turn the Docker image into a Firecracker VM, I stole the idea from Fly.io [1]. Add all the trimmings like jailer and stuff, don't give it any network interfaces - Run our own shim as PID 0 in the VM, which sets up a bunch of things to make the environment hermetic (time set to 1970, etc), and does some stuff with eBPF to monitor usage by the child process, and also enforces 1 minute timeout - Run the jobs on a parent VM that doesn't otherwise have any privileges - Copy images pixel by pixel (for raster images) or remove all the shady parts of an SVG that we don't otherwise trust - Other general defense-in-depth stuff, validating request/response sizes, minimal privileges on separate services, private networking throughout.

  No-code platform for building dynamic apps and websites: https://saasufy.com/ https://saasufy.com/ It's further along than what is available online right now though there should be an update in the next few days as it's very close to MVP. It allows you to build tables, lists and pages which update in real-time and support complex views including filtered by category and/or based on variables with pagination. It's designed to be fast and scalable. The idea is that it will allow you to build complex apps using only HTML and CSS with zero to very little JavaScript. I already did a proof of concept as I used the same components to build the service itself and some of the dynamic pages to manage resources are pure HTML with essentially no code. With MVP, it will work as a flexible CMS for making and updating websites but the next phase is to add authentication and access control and this will allow building forms which collect data from users and allow them to share data and interact with each other. I think it will require a few more weeks to a month to implement that as many of the tools are already in place.

  https://github.com/victorqribeiro/towerDefense https://github.com/victorqribeiro/towerDefense I quit my job at the bank after a bad experience. With no source of income I started to develop this game. After 3 days in, I thought to myself "who am I kidding? I won't be able to sell this and make money" so I went job hunting and found the job I work today (3 years in). Although it looks like it only have one level, it doesn't. I wrote a level generator for it. I did spend a lot of time working on things that don't matter, for instance screen orientation. My goal was to have one game that i could sell in any platform, mobile or desktop. Maybe I'll finish it someday.

Got 5 stars on GitHub just from tag discovery, and the wishful thinking of some Godot-ers that I'll ever have time to un-suck it. It's also got R-rated comments, a video demonstration, and a short written log of the weird hurdles I had to surmount.

  I was working on a project (still too early) and I wanted to generate UUIDv7 compliant ids to mock the data. No such tool existed. So... https://uuidv7.app https://uuidv7.app is an online tool which generates UUIDv7 compliant ids. I also provide a simple free api at [1] which returns something like this: `{"id":"018b25e4-78a3-75e2-93cf-4004aef6c2ae"}`. Please be kind, there's currently no rate limiting. No ads, loads fast (fingers crossed), works perfectly without javascript, a tool for fellow programmers. The whole project took me a week, it's made with Deno Fresh and hosted on Deno Deploy's paid plan. (if anyone from Deno Deploy wants to support this tool feel free to email me, my email is in my profile) I'll soon add a feature to extract the timestamp from the id as a debugging tool.

  RankPic - www.rankpic.info (available on Android and iOS, website is.. meh) App that lets you crowdsource people's opinions on your photos. Unlike other websites out there, it doesn't rate you 1-10 but instead ranks your photos against each other so you don't have to feel bad about yourself :).

  Here's a great fully baked project for sharing half-baked ideas that an old friend of mine developed years ago, and is still going strong -- the Halfbakery: https://www.halfbakery.com/ https://www.halfbakery.com/ >The Halfbakery is a communal database of original, fictitious inventions, edited by its users. It was created by people who like to speculate, both as a form of satire and as a form of creative expression. (To learn more about what ideas are appropriate, see the help section.) The halfbakery software is implemented as one big C CGI program, edited with vi, compiled with gcc, invoked by an Apache http server.

  Ghidra extension for delinking programs back into object files: https://github.com/boricj/ghidra-delinker-extension https://github.com/boricj/ghidra-delinker-extension In short, this Ghidra extension allows one to reconstruct relocation tables through analysis and then export parts of programs as working object files, effectively reversing the work of a linker. Applications include binary patching, converting between object file formats, making software ports and libraries from a binary artifact without source code, decompilation projects... I've been tinkering with it for the past 16 months or so and it's the third, hopefully industrial-grade prototype. Right now it can delink 32-bit MIPS and i386 programs from the 1990s or so to ELF object files, as long as it contains basic relocation types. It's half-baked because while it works, it doesn't support modern instruction sets, advanced relocation types for TLS/PLT/GOT or exporting to other object file formats besides ELF, so it's not that useful on modern artifacts (which is what I assume most reverse-engineers would care about). It's not really ready for prime time because I'm not done writing blog posts that walk through real-world applications and case studies ; there's very little literature out there on this esoteric topic and it can be very confusing. Like "let's take this PlayStation PS-EXE file that was built with a COFF toolchain back in the 90s and make MIPS ELF object files out of it that work with modern Linux toolchains" kind of confusing. I started this project because I wanted to decompile a PlayStation video game and quickly realized that I'd never get anywhere without a means to divide and conquer it into smaller, more manageable pieces. Ironically the decompilation project itself hasn't advanced much, but I'm having fun so far working on this ; if anything, it shows that ABIs and file formats are but mere conventions that can be arm-twisted into submission given enough leverage.

      It does, but finding appropriately licensed foley samples that also sound ok in a loop is more challenging than I would have expected.

  https://www.oncer.io/ https://www.oncer.io/ Encrypted messages without history - for when you want to send an api key or password or the like and don't want it sitting in the recipients WhatsApp/Signal history, for example, or going over non-encrypted channels like email or Slack. And you don't want to set up a complicated encryption messaging thing. There are similar services already: e.g. onetimesecret, burnernote - but I wanted something that did encryption client side. I also wanted to set up channels, to send multiple messages between 2 devices without doing "trust on first use" for each new message. The encryption takes place in the browser - if you're a developer: you can even use browser devtools debugging/network sections to confirm the private key never leaves your device. I plan to work on the ux, and also further strengthen the encryption (e.g. does the signal protocol work for this...? will implement something that should provide some form of forward secrecy in any case), and make a Flutter-based client so it's super convenient to use on all platforms (maybe also enable things like nfc-based key change...). Would be very interested to hear from anyone who would like to help! :)

• strongly-typed 3y ago
  - Typocide (ocaml) - https://github.com/rdavison/typocide https://github.com/rdavison/typocide Typocide is a CLI based typing tutor. It solves a few problems which other typing tutors failed to provide for me. In particular it uses real world text instead of fake text (such as keybr). The corpus is derived from all the quotes available on Typeracer. It also does not follow the same rules as 10fastfingers or monkeytype's default mode of displaying words in random order. To make an analogy with music, when I practice a passage in a piece of music, I don't play the measures in a random order. Rather, I practice challenging _phrases_ of music (groups of related measures). Next, Typocide draws inspiration from leveltype (https://github.com/christoofar/leveltype https://github.com/christoofar/leveltype) which bans the use of the backspace key. If you make a typo, Typocide will identified the typo'd word as the focus. It will then build a test which includes the surrounding words for the current test (previous and next word), and also the surrounding words from previous tests where you have typo'd the word. The idea is that when you make a typo, the word was a part of some context, and rather than simply practicing the word, you want to practice the word in context. A lot of typos, particularly in speedtyping, happen at word boundaries. Furthermore, by having it operate on context, it also reinforces common idioms. For example, the word "example" is very likely to be preceded by the word "for" and very unlikely to be preceded by a word like "kaleidoscope". So it makes sense to practice "For example," as a unit. Furthermore, it has some rudimentary support for identifying words which you have typed more slowly than usual. Typocide will also generate practice tests from these slow words. Finally, this test deliberately does not compute or report a WPM. The reason is because I want people to not feel pressured to type quickly. Rather, the pressure should come from having to do too many practice tests. The measure of success is being able to type accurately and consistently. Sometimes the tests are not perfect, so I have added a simple escape hatch: if you press TAB on a new test, it will skip the test, and if you press TAB after you have started typing a test, it will repeat the test from the beginning. This project is half baked for two reasons: 1. The interface is very rudimentary. 2. The code is somewhat disorganized and needs to be cleaned up. - Keyboard layout generator (ocaml) - https://github.com/rdavison/stronglytyped https://github.com/rdavison/stronglytyped This is a keyboard layout generator with support for multiple layers and punctuation optimization. This project is half baked because I can't figure out a set of weights to make it generate great layouts (it generates decent layouts, but not any layouts which are :chefskiss:). Also, at some point I would like to move the analysis away from dealing with floating point numbers and move it towards integers. The design is quite interesting because it uses Jane Street's Incremental library to heavily cache intermediate results. As the generator is running, it tries random swaps and then re-evaluates the score. Oftentimes a swap will affect one part of the keyboard, but not the other... for instance if you swap two keys on the left hand, then it will not affect anything on the right hand. In that case, this tool will only recompute the parts that changed instead of recomputing the entire layout. I still haven't done any benchmarking to see if this _actually_ improves performance, or whether it just makes me feel better. :)

  https://github.com/mattrighetti/envelope https://github.com/mattrighetti/envelope it’s a cli utility tool to manage/replace .env files. I was tired of having 3 different .env files in every project folder. They fall out of sync when you’re developing stuff and you only update your .env.local file, only to realise, later on, that you did not update the values in your .env.stage and all the others too. This cli leverages an sqlite database to abstract away these files. Instead of having multiple .env you can create as many environments as you want (local, stage, prod etc.) and each one can contain multiple key-value elements. I have already implemented some commands that I use day to day but I plan to make some more useful stuff with it.

  I love this thread, thank you! Ampwall. Musician-owned, Public Benefit Co alternative to Bandcamp. (Eventually.) https://ampwall.com https://ampwall.com. Dogfooding it with my own band’s merch sales at https://woeunholy.ampwall.com https://woeunholy.ampwall.com. Digital audio will launch soon (2-3 weeks?) and we plan on starting our tests with outside bands/labels by end of year. I’ve been building this throughout the past year but the stuff that’s publicly available is pretty basic. I was going to keep it quiet but the news about Epic selling Bandcamp two weeks ago prompted me to announce early, so might as well share it here too and really put the cart before the horse! I have a lot of opinions about things I’ve always wanted Bandcamp to offer. While it’s going to start very similar to BC, we’re going to experiment with some very different things ASAP. The feedback I gathered throughout the year showed me that there’s a hunger for this and the response to my announcement was bigger than I expected, so I’m feeling good about it. It’s been fun to build and it’s going to get better. It’s all Next.js and TypeScript. Hosted on Node.js servers because I don’t think serverless is for me. I’m using Porter.run for production, a YC alum whose office is in my neighborhood in Queens!

    Cool, dude. Have you decided on a fee structure? I know bandcamp takes 15% for digital and 10% for physical items, not including merchant fees.
    • sickcodebruh 3y ago
      Hey! We (my co-founder and I) haven’t decided but we’re experimenting and exploring. Right now it’s 5% plus payment processing (Stripe) fees but that will be reevaluated based on what we need to keep the lights on. Bandcamp’s fees were one of the many motivations to do this and I have a lot to say about them. I think there’s probably an approach that’s better at controlling costs while also helps folks who sell keep more of their money.

  https://janiserdmanis.org/artefacts/EVOTEID-2023-poster.pdf https://janiserdmanis.org/artefacts/EVOTEID-2023-poster.pdf Current E2E verifiable e-voting systems are complex to deploy and often require a trusted setup phase if fancy zero-knowledge proofs are used. All require coordination of threshold decryption ceremony. Moreover, maintaining bulletin board immutability is considered an easy problem; just replicate it. This necessitates that the e-voting systems are deployed with multiple independent parties that don’t collude, significantly adding to the deployment costs. Deployment can be delegated to a third party, but the tendency to optimise costs would sacrifice “independence” for the parties, which ensures the voter’s anonymity. Some while ago, I got attached to the idea of anonymising voters’ pseudonyms instead of the votes with which they cast their votes pseudonymously. The anonymisation of the pseudonyms can be done verifiably on untrusted third parties transactionally - meaning when the resulting anonymisation is computed, returned and verified, there are no lingering trust assumptions. Another essential ingredient is a History enabled bulletin board, which provides efficient inclusion and consistency proofs. This enables voter’s client applications to ask bulletin board consistency proofs, ensuring their and others’ vote inclusion in the final tally. The result is a fully centralised e-voting system, PeaceFounder, which a single person can deploy without concerns about integrity or privacy. More on it can be found on https://peacefounder.org https://peacefounder.org

ArchiveBox will always remain free and open source, DigestBox would just be a fancy frontend on top of it that handles cloud hosting and provides a nicer UI to make internet archiving more approachable to the average user. The revenue would go towards supporting open source ArchiveBox development, and would allow me to work on it full-time. I'd love to get people's feedback on this concept. Let me know if you like the idea of DigestBox and if you'd use it! I'm also curious if the $0.01/URL pricing sounds reasonable to people. Assuming each page produces 50mb or less of output, that works out to $120/yr to archive 1000 URLs per month.

  Ooh i got several of those. The one I like the most is this: https://github.com/obaqueiro/dominoparty https://github.com/obaqueiro/dominoparty The idea is to make a minimalistic tabletop online multiplayer game engine that only draws the "pieces" and controls the player-hidden pieces but doesnt enforce game logic. I tried to simulate the environment I had when playing dominoes with my friends in real life. The idea of the engine is that you can change the "pieces" (cards, letter squares, domino tiles) and thus can play lots of games online with friends. I built it at the start of covid to play with the family. But it has A LOT of rough edges, bugs in state keeping and the code is awful I'd love to have time to improve it. Particularly to keep state using CRDTs via Yjs.

  I've posted before, but https://beatyourbookie.app/ https://beatyourbookie.app/ is what I've been working on for a while. The website is for tracking betting lines and finding arbitrage and +EV bets across sports betting sites. I've been hooked on the idea that there are inefficiencies in sports betting markets that can be taken advantage of, especially in betting on live events and so this started as me just collecting minute by minute odds data from different sites and going from there. I'm currently collecting all the data myself so my next step is creating a public API to allow other users to access the same sportsbook data that I'm currently using (https://sportsbookapi.com https://sportsbookapi.com).
  • wspeirs 3y ago

    Arbs! I had fun doing them years ago but there are some issues I had: One side decides not to take the bet, or makes it harder “call us to confirm” type thing. Opening loads of accounts is tedious. Some sports are easy to mess up on. I think basketball (?) may have senior and junior versions with the same team names so you can bet on the wrong thing quite easily. My best arb was about 50% profit!

I had no idea about writing Rust code, language models or Wayland protocols and ended up writing a master thesis about it. The language model used n-grams and was generated from Wikipedia. The idea was that everybody is able to easily generate a model for their own language. The keyboard worked fine, but the language model was way too big. I got side tracked writing an input simulation library that works on all platforms. Once I am done with that, I'll get back to the keyboard and make it usable again.

  • demyinn 3y ago
    Super cool project! I love billiards! Is there a way to implement adjusting your angle while in the "aiming" state? I noticed that the only way to adjust your aim was to stand and move the angle then you could try aiming again. Or is this the intention for visualization? Really like it over all :)
    • Folcon 3y ago
      It is the point of the sim it seems, pushing you to get used to aiming while standing.
      • vinaypai 3y ago
        Exactly this!
    • vinaypai 3y ago
      It's very much intentional. Beginners often try to adjust their aim while down, usually with poor results. Instructors will universally teach you to aim while standing, and get up and reset if things don't feel right when you get down. I've taken lessons with several instructors including a former world #1 player ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mika_Immonen https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mika_Immonen). He would make me get up and try again if I made the tiniest aim adjustment when down. The "aiming" state is in fact when you're standing.
  • Folcon 3y ago
    I do think the arrow keys make it a little easier to aim, would some drag to aim moving left/right and releasing the mouse to go down give a bit more reasonable feeling of the experience? I'm just aware that when you're playing you don't feel like you're moving in very fixed increments left/right when aiming, which using the keyboard seems to produce as an experience.

  Not live, but mostly implemented. turdness.com The site grew from my personal frustrations with Finland Post Corporation. In four months, three packages were returned and three others were almost returned, most from different parties. Apparently this was due to a systematic error. I did everything in my power to get them to fix it, but to no avail. They did not want to even acknowledge the issues exist. Everything was my fault. I found some companions in this misfortune in the Facebook group Suomen Posti - Paska laitos (engl. Finland Post - Shitty Facility). The group had over 20k members that really hate Finland Post Corporation. After reading experiences in this group, and thinking about my own experience, I started thinking that maybe it is possible to classify organizations based on how irredeemable their "turdness" is: Level 1: Core process fails Level 2: Even backup process fails Level 3: Failed to monitor success Level 4: Customer service fails to help in case of failure Level 5: Escalation via customer service fails to help Level 6: Executive escalation fails to help Level 7: Filing an external complaint to overseeing organization fails to help Idea of the site is that people can vent their frustrations about an organization, and we can collectively collect systematic data of the turdness level of that organization. This could then potentially help the organization to see and overcome their turdness. It would be great to work with somebody to finalize it and get it running in production. Platform is python/django, but some non-coding help would also be nice, beta testing, figuring out what needs to be done with the site together etc.!

  lovezone.io A platform for creating and hosting dating sites, for free. Lovezone is based on the observation that in the physical realm, mating often happens in smaller circles: within a group of friends or within hobby groups. Lovezone makes possible for such small circles to have their own dating site. The sweet spot for the users of this service is probably existing communities such as Facebook groups with perhaps 1K-10K members, such as "dog owners in Finland", or "hiking enthusiasts in Finland". In such groups, the Facebook introduction threads are no longer feasible. Lovezone is not a dating site, but a platform for making dating sites. The idea is that anybody can start a group, which is kind of a miniature dating site, in the Lovezone. They can do it just in few minutes, and it is free. The problem with commercial sites is the short-term profit thinking caused by economic incentives. It is in the interest of the dating sites to hold on to paying customers as long possible. Each pairing will cause them to lose two customers, so pairing is not in their economic interest. That is the reason why such sites show you only some of the profiles, and it seems that you do not necessarily see the profiles that would be a really good match for you. On the other hand, showing people endless number of profiles skews the attitudes. Why settle for getting to know this one person behind this one profile, when a slightly better person might be just around the corner? This causes dating exhaustion, which is a real phenomenon. Under this stress, people start over-emphasizing superficial things, such as the looks. Therefore, Lovezone will never be monetized by charging the users a monthly fee. If the running costs become an issue, I want to figure out a monetization scheme where the incentives are aligned with the users really meeting people.
  • 90-00-09 3y ago
    This is an interesting take. A couple of observations: - Small groups of people who know each other IRL are very sensitive to breakups. When a couple breaks up, it frequently splits their friend group into 2 camps that "follow" one of the partners (strange behavior in my view but certainly observable and prevalent, especially in the US). Dealing with this complexity is going to be a challenging task. - Small groups of people rarely have many already connected people that would consider dating each other but for some reason don't. And expanding the group dating pool might be awkward as users will start inviting people from completely different circles with a potentially lower and lower overlap in interests, attitudes, etc. - Dating websites are very often used for short term dating or hookups, which, I guess, is not going to be the focus of your app. Taking that into account, reaching a meaningful number of profiles in a circle might become an unsolvable blocker (i.e. having 4 friend profiles is not a much better experience than just introducing friends via socials/IRL)

  https://unycorn.app https://unycorn.app On Product Hunt: https://www.producthunt.com/products/unycorn https://www.producthunt.com/products/unycorn I quit my job more than a year ago and wanted to participate in this crazy (but fun) rush to find creative applications of AI. Tried many things, first attempts failed miserably, but it's a fun journey and I'm getting useful experience. Right now, I'm building an app that allows you to apply AI to create interesting visual effects for images and videos. Currently, there are two main features: - You can swap faces in videos to create personalized memes. - Generate artistic self-portraits. You probably have seen such features many times already and maybe even tired of it, but for me it was just a starting point. I plan to continue adding new features as new interesting models and technologies become available. Right now there is only a web version and I'm working on rolling out ios and android versions (Almost there!). Stack: AWS, docker, runpod.io, python, react native. Happy to collaborate with other makers on this and other ideas!

  My personal solo project is a mobile roguelike card game, blending elements from Marvel Champions and Slay the Spire, all set within a cyberpunk theme. It's built using Flutter and primarily relies on standard UI widgets. Currently, it is available for free without any ads, and I'm working on adding more content that will be unlocked through in-app purchases. All the art is generated using Midjourney. If it weren't for AI-generated art, I wouldn't have even started the project.

  The recent AI craze got me excited to program personal projects again, so I made a Chrome extension to save my ChatGPT prompts into and run them against any page's selected text. The idea was that it's more convenient create a command once, then on any website highlight text and right-click it rather than copy/paste stuff into ChatGPT. So far I know all 10 people who installed it personally, and I have a ton more ideas for polish (for instance, it won't work at all on Google Docs right now since there's no text selection in their canvas-based editor) but it's been super entertaining to play around with OpenAI and some of the newer extension APIs nonetheless. I'm also sort of releasing backwards in that I decided to charge up front to limit the number of users and slowly gather feedback while mitigating my risk, but once I work out all the kinks there will definitely be a free tier that everyone starts out on. https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/smudgeai/mhagofdaceclicecldngmdlnljcmebcn https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/smudgeai/mhagofdace...

    I really like the UI: 1. using the new Chrome Sidebar API is a great choice! 2. selecting actions to show in the context menu is also a convenient customization idea Are you considering porting it to FF? Other than the Sidebar API it should be a very straightforward process.
    • seabass 3y ago
      Thank you! It was actually Chrome releasing the ability to open a sidebar using a context menu action that sparked the idea. I absolutely plan to support firefox. I figured I should get things working well in one browser first before looking into porting, but consider it on the near term todo list.
      • 90-00-09 3y ago
        Sounds good. One problem that you will likely encounter in FF is that you can't open the native extension popup (the one that is attached to the action button) programmatically. That severely limits how you can present your UI, with the most obvious choice being injecting an iframe with the extension UI directly into the body of the page. The other choice is opening a new popup window, which is less convenient than seeing things side by side.

    You could simply encode the json to base64 and put it in the url fragment (hash). Then you can save by bookmarking the url and share by copy/pasting it, all without a server. I've seen some web games use this method but I can't remember which off the top of my head.

  https://streamigo.io/ https://streamigo.io/ It's an app to help 2+ people choose what to watch together on the most popular streaming platforms by presenting semi-random titles, asking each person to vote (swipe left/right), and settling on the "best" based on most votes/popularity. It was born out of endless scrolling through Netflix (and the like) with significant others and friends, and not settling on something to watch. Instead, this shortens the process by allowing everyone to give their input, but accepting the results from the app as the thing to actually start playing. As the creators, we've almost exclusively used it to choose movies or series to watch, and have often ended up watching things we'd have never found naturally in XYZ streaming service's UI (so at worst, we created an expensive away for us to avoid getting frustrated finding something we agree on). It's limited to usage within the US only for now, as wrangling all of the metadata is time consuming (and we're based in the US). The UI/UX needs some help, as it was built by backend devs with React Native. The backend is Scala/Play/Redis/Postgres deployed on Docker Swarm.

  https://github.com/LorenDB/muziko https://github.com/LorenDB/muziko I'm building Muziko, which is an app that will give you a list of songs every day to practice on your musical instrument of choice. I was planning to post it here eventually, but not for a long time, as I still need to build a UI that doesn't completely suck and fix some big issues. However, if this sounds cool, please have fun with it! It's written in C++/Qt/QML. Native apps that are also completely crossplatform ftw.

  https://github.com/orsi/react-gamin https://github.com/orsi/react-gamin A very rough prototype of a game library with modern functional React. After seeing only a few game libraries in React, and all being relatively old and class-based, I wanted to learn how to make a React-based version of some simple games. So far I got pong and some walking/animating sprites on a map, but hopefully will find more time in the future to flesh it out. One big issue I found out was it’s incredibly difficult, if not impossible, to dynamically add/remove react components in and out of the dom. React very much encourages not touching or modifying “children”, with most apis that do that being obsolete and deprecated.

I used the rating system of chess moves (!!, !, !?, ?!, ?, ??) to mark down notable points of the interview and what i though of them. It even has a little keyboard i build with an ardunio to enter in the ratings subtly. It was a fun project, I learned quite a bit about electron and software for embedded systems. But the hiring freezes hit and it took a bit of motivation from me as well. Someday when things are better Ill boot it back up. and maybe even use it for interviews again.

  gitPlay: I am working on a desktop application to learn about the structure and evolution of a software project from its git history. Helpful for developers and PMs in onboarding new members, seeing how a project evolved and decision making. As a mentor/engineering leader, I have always resorted to recording videos about how a project is structured, what decisions led to the current status and thought process behind this. I felt that much of this information is already there in the git commit log and perhaps project management software like JIRA. gitPlay starts at the first commit instead of the head of the log. And you see a video player like interface. When you hit play, you see the folder structure evolve. I am adding file viewers, support for multiple folder browsers. Future ideas: - Show hot spots across the entire file structure in the whole timeline - Visualize folder/file chances over time as a tree (instead of explorers at the moment) - Integrate with project management to overlay tickets with correspond to pull/merge requests - Overlay a video with a file documenting sections of the video related to commits so gitplay will show contents as you play the video How I wish to maintain/monetize: - Keep core software open source, free for anyone, runs locally on your git repo - Pay to tap into private project management data or explainer videos (point 4 above) https://github.com/brainless/gitplay https://github.com/brainless/gitplay

  https://gudzpoz.github.io/brocatel/tutorial.html https://gudzpoz.github.io/brocatel/tutorial.html It's a (story-)scripting language based on Markdown and Lua. Basically it lets you write choice-based interactive fictions in Markdown (and Lua code blocks for advanced usages). It is not actively developed these days since I consider the language itself is somehow usable and I have little free time these days. But the runtime-time API and compile-time macro API will probably need tons of improvements and I am still looking to implement a few features, like subroutine calls and threading support (not those threads though), and probably an IDE or at least a LSP implementation. (But again, I am quite occupied these days so the to-do list just piles up...) Any feedback will be greatly appreciated!

  Can we include projects with no intention to finish or support long term or frankly even share to an audience other than myself until now for some reason? If so, I made this little app to help me quickly learn ukulele song chords nearly a decade ago: https://ukey.vercel.app/ https://ukey.vercel.app/ Code: https://github.com/namuol/ukey https://github.com/namuol/ukey The idea was to translate generic guitar tabs into visual chord diagrams for ukulele simply by copy-pasting note notation. Technically it could be adapted for other fretted instruments with a few lines, because it actually generates the chords mathematically with the help of the excellent Teoria library. This sometimes leads to questionable finger positions, but you can tap any chord diagram to see if there are alternative fingerings, which makes it easy to find the most comfortable way to transition between chords. On a similar note, you can transpose the song until you find a key that avoids the most difficult chords. At one point I considered automating this process by creating a simple heuristic to determine the “difficulty” of a chord fingering, but I decided this was too subjective and varies a lot depending on the adjacent chords and frequency of switching finger positions. Needless to say, I never really learned to play ukulele…
  • porkloin 3y ago
    Great work! I've made a few jank theory practice apps for guitar and pedal-steel guitar, and know exactly what you mean when there's that impulse to start to automate things that are really just too subjective. > Needless to say, I never really learned to play ukulele… Funny you say that, I actually do think making the tools made me better at the instruments. Being forced to sit and seriously consider things like the most optimal way to change chords is the kind of music theory that I always struggled to think of in the moment on the instrument.
    • namuol 3y ago
      Yeah I was mostly being tongue in cheek; I probably learned more and played more songs than if I hadn’t made the app. I just don’t have the sort of patience or discipline required to really advance beyond a few basic tunes. I learned about ukulele and fretted instruments in general for sure though. I still have my ukuleles and can probably play a few tunes from memory, but my poor cat absolutely hates the sound so I don’t torture her. Nothing like an honest critic.

  Problem: There are lots of forums like r/AppIdeas, r/ideas, indiehackers, hackernews etc where people post their ideas/products/landing-pages for feedback. They sparsely get any feedback as the other people on these forums are also looking for feedback, but not willing to "give" feedback. Solution: Created a Discord Server where you need to give 3 feedbacks to request 1. This way it encourages people to participate in the discussion instead of just spamming their ideas. Traction: 40 signups so far. Link: https://discord.gg/Vw5Fm3zx https://discord.gg/Vw5Fm3zx

  http://www.plottingtool.com/app.html http://www.plottingtool.com/app.html It's a fully client-side, Tableau-inspired data visualization & exploration tool for CSV / tabular data. I built it around 7 years ago with just ES6 and d3.js (no React etc) but never really finished or "launched" it - perfectionism led to a neverending todo list, and with a target market of only myself I didn't have a strong pull toward solving a real-world use case. I even took some time between jobs thinking I'd build it into a real product, but only managed to burn myself out instead (quite a surprise to learn that could happen on a passion project!) But it does work - drag in a CSV file (ideally <100MB) and you can make some cool charts and quickly explore a dataset, all without the data leaving your machine. The features aren't very discoverable, but it has stuff like adding derived columns, various fancy charts, row/column sorting, custom colors, etc. I'm sure there are far better tools around these days, but I've still come back to this thing a surprising amount in my day job when I want to whip up a quick histogram or investigate some trend in a medium-size dataset.

  https://mindgarden.app/ https://mindgarden.app/ Offline WYSIWYG markdown editor + publishing tool with a Notion-like UI. You can load a local folder from your computer by clicking the "open folder" button on the splash screen. There you can create and edit new files on your machine (all from your web browser, or install as a PWA) The publishing feature enables you to publish a folder as an API (eg. all the data from https://codefire.dev/ https://codefire.dev/ is served by an API I created with mindgarden. I also use MindGarden for my blog on my personal site). Admittedly the UX to do this is not straightforward yet, I'll have to improve that and/or make a video demonstrating how to do it. Ctrl+Shift+P opens up a go-to menu to easy navigate to any file, and Ctrl+Shift+L toggles dark mode. Definitely half-baked and needs a lot of polish (eg. not designed for mobile yet). Let me know what you think though. May or may not motivate me to actually finish this damn project.

It creates symlinks, but it can't delete them, because it doesn't keep track of what it creates. But since I don't actually have to configure too many things, that's not really a big problem for me, because can I simply delete them manually if I need. Maybe some day I will add that functionality, maybe not.

      Killer feature would be (a) remember that a specific site or url for logs uses a certain time zone and them (b) convert all time stamps on that page Half my log pages being UTC and the other half not and not always having an indicator is annoying and this would solve that.

  marver https://github.com/sylv/marver https://github.com/sylv/marver My NAS has a load of files dumped onto it over the years. Instead of spending a couple weekends sorting through it like a sane person, I'm making something to automatically index it using the metadata already there. The goal for marver is to index my NAS and extract as much metadata as it can, then display that in a pretty UI that gives the user multiple ways to refine the metadata, search through their files and make the most of the piled up 1s and 0s they have rotting on a HDD somewhere. So far I've mostly just been having fun making individual pieces and playing with machine learning (CLIP is really cool!). Right now I'm porting the machine learning code to rust one model at a time so I can bundle the whole app into a single compact docker container, and on the way I get to learn how the black boxes I'm using actually work. I've tried similar self-hosted apps but they all either have mediocre UI, are painful to setup, or make me add metadata that is already there, just not easily parsed by machines. I want something that most people can deploy in a few minutes and that can get 95% of the way there on its own, while still letting the user refine the results from automated approaches when it inevitably falls flat on its face with edge cases. It's still far from complete, but my NAS has annoyed me enough recently that I'm starting to focusing on a version that can be deployed, even if it's missing most of the features I want to add. I think once that happens it'll be easier to add features because I can immediately get value from them with, instead of having to slowly struggle towards a functional release.

  An open firmware for inertial flywheel based bike static trainers: https://github.com/tuna-f1sh/wiredhoo https://github.com/tuna-f1sh/wiredhoo It started as a wired replacement for wireless communications by emulating an ANT+ USB stick; the host software thinks the packets are being sent wirelessly. Then it become more of an exploration into how inertial trainers calculate input torque only from the known properties of the flywheel. In theory it could become an open firmware for any trainer, since the hardware is largely the same. I never really finished tuning the functions to estimate the power from the flywheel RPM.

  I ha operating system design which I had not even made up a name yet. (It involves proxy capabilities, hypertext file system, multiple locking, programs that the user can program to work together, message passing, structured data, Extended TRON Code, and many other ideas.) But, I would hope to make the discussion about it, to improve and to design some of the details (such as ABI, system calls, file formats, etc; I would propose some (I wrote some ideas so far), anyone (myself and others) could propose and criticize them, etc) I also have Free Hero Mesh, which is good enough to be used now although it lacks installers, and the puzzle catalog service, etc; and is meant only on GNU/Linux; so you would have to compile and set it up by yourself, although hopefully people who are able to port it, and other help with it. (Also a few features are missing; e.g. currently font sizes are limited to 8x8, and there is no music (although sound effects are implemented).)

    • zzo38computer 3y ago
      Yes (and I did post some on here in the past), although better would be on Usenet, or on my own NNTP server if I add a newsgroup for such a discussion. I had written a list of some keysyms possibly might be used in the GUI system (the IME and other things may convert key codes into a sequence of keysyms). I had also written a list of some ideas about what kinds of structures may be available in the common file format. I also wrote some things about the default window manager, and about the window "indicators" (which ones are present depends on the program, but allows control over e.g. audio volume, network access, etc, independently for each program while the programs are running). I also have ideas about network transparency, synchronization, emulation, command-line, and others. It is a combination of command-line and GUI and you can use both together (most existing systems don't really work them as very well together as they could be). And, I have the idea of what things will be avoided by this system (USB, UEFI, telemetry, Unicode, bad-for-advanced-users, too many worthless fancy animations, Digital-Restrictions-Management, etc). However, these things are not currently published (and some are also not on the computer; I wrote some of them on a paper). (Much of it is implemented in terms of proxy capabilities, which is perhaps the most important feature, but the other features are also important.)

My idea was to use a social network as the backbone of a search engine. My thinking was that the majority of the internet doesn't need to be indexed, so why not just use the portion of the web that is offered up by users? If this sounds stupid, I would offer Hacker News as a working example of this model. My other motivation was that the majority of platforms operate on a popular vote strategy, as a result, content that appeals to our lesser nature tends to do very well. YouTube, for example, could not support the development of content as ambitious as Avatar. Content on Zohing is ranked using a "recursive voting" strategy. It attempts to find accounts that have been deemed by other users to be "high quality" and weight their interactions more. Put simply: On the spectrum of Avatar to TLC I want creators to aim for Avatar. I am try to create a platform whose underlying game incentivizes the creation of difficult, high effort content instead of reality TV and cable news. Zohing was created to function as a mobile web app. Getting it to work smoothly on iOS safari was a real challenge. I had to do some ugly hacks to get 2 way infinite scrolling to work. For version 2 I am going to go with a more conservative approach. If you want to know how the recursive vote algorithm works or have any other questions you can email me at: surgeon@zohing.com

  Unpublished: a shell written in pure Ruby, blurring the line between "shell-land" and "ruby-land" (think xonsh, only it does not "fallback" to the other side of the world at parse time. it's all first class Ruby), and that can also work with mRuby. Why mRuby? Well this is the first step of a larger dumb project where I'd have pure Ruby as Linux init/userland and boot straight to it (like these old Amstrad or whatever booted straight to BASIC), then maybe even write a toy kernel in Ruby and drop Linux as well. I have little time to work in it so it's snail pace but I'm getting near the "I can use this shell" minimal featureset (basically basic input, exec, redir, and pipes) line. That's my "fail fast" part, and iteratively implement features as pain shows me that I really need this or that day to day by using it as my default shell.

  Feedback/Ideas welcome since these will (soon) be released as open source projects. https://subatic.com https://subatic.com : Cheap/Sustainable open-source youtube alternative. Video hosting on cloudflare R2. (0.36$ / million segments or 2.3 million hours of watch-time per 1$). Transcoding pipeline built in bash/python+ffmpeg. No ads but business model revolves around arbitraging sponsored segments in videos, which can be targeted to countries and can be rotated as needed. Other business model is providing hosting/maintaining solution for businesses. Currently random videos are uploaded but it does showcase different resolutions and the speed to access videos. Quit/Laxed on this since I achieved my engineering goal of making it end to end work (upload->transcoding->cheap hosting->scalable architecture). https://app.exam.cafe https://app.exam.cafe : OpenAI + Deepgram based instant language evaluation. Built this for myself when going through IELTS exam. All other online sites wanted me to go through a human and pay for each response. While a human evaluation is desired for judging accents/pronunciation , this tool can judge your content/body.
  • mangoparrot 3y ago
    More info on subatic. Idea for the first one came when a client wanted to host some videos which were to receive very high traffic. Easiest solution was youtube but youtube adds friction. All other hosting platforms wanted for bandwidth or number of hours of streams. Cheapest solution I found was transcoding and hosting on cloudflare R2. I then went down the rabbit hole of building youtube in the cheapest possible way. The app is built with api endpoints in mind so a future mobile app can be built in future. Other use cases : video embedding, personal video storage, corporate training materials, hosting courses.

  laminarmq: https://github.com/arindas/laminarmq https://github.com/arindas/laminarmq I am building a message queue from scratch in Rust. It is intended to be a resource efficient alternative to Apache Kafka. (It does not rely on any Kafka libraries.) It has similar concepts like topics and partitions. It is intended to be distributed in nature, with no reliance on any third party component. Currently it only provides a segmented log implementation which can be used on it's own if necessary. We support both persistent and in-memory storage. It is still very much in a nascent stage as there are no message queue level APIs or Web endpoints yet. I tried to keep it as decoupled from different Rust async runtimes as possible to make it easier to integrate to different ecosystems. It currently supports tokio and glommio. There is also an example to show how the segmented log might be used in a server: https://github.com/arindas/laminarmq/tree/examples/laminarmq-tokio-commit-log-server https://github.com/arindas/laminarmq/tree/examples/laminarmq... Next steps would be to design the message queue level APIs and gradually implement the distributed components. This is the first time I am implementing something at this scale so any feedback or advice would be great.

  I am crafting BCL, own configuration language. https://github.com/wkhere/bcl https://github.com/wkhere/bcl I started this when I was unable to squeeze certain usage patterns from HCL, like: variables living in the same scope as the file, evaluating variables in one pass with parsing, easily using external (environment) variables; plus, a simplified syntax. The implementation is mostly done: you can defined blocks holding key-value pairs and use numerical, string and bool expressions in them. I will add lists and nested blocks. At this very moment I am rewriting a parser from yacc-based to a Pratt top-down parser with vm, heavily inspired by the excellent book "Crafting Interpreters". This work is actually done, but needs few polishes to be integrated. The first implementation of the parser and deserializer is in Go. Once I'm happy with the language and it's sealed, I will write another implementations, most like starting with Python and Zig.

  Like many, I've been on a job hunt for the past year. To streamline this process, I've initiated https://rolematch.me https://rolematch.me - a platform designed to provide candidates with practical feedback on how to enhance their resumes and align them more closely with specific job advertisements. rolematch.me utilizes the OpenAI API (gpt-4) to perform a semantic analysis of both the resume and job ad, pinpointing skills and requirements, and understanding their semantic implications. It then offers suggestions on how candidates can integrate these skills into their resumes. Currently, the proof of concept is in its private beta phase (you're welcome to try it out using the invite code konami), and I'm planning to incorporate more features soon. Please note that neither your resume nor the job description are stored. They are pre-moderated via the OpenAI API (requests to the OpenAI API are not used for further model training but are retained for 30 days for monitoring potential abuse or misuse).

  I left my last job and a toxic boss a few months back and decided the only viable future is to start my own thing again. But this time I was going to do it properly - lean customer development, speak to users before writing a line of code, etc. Instead, I became fascinated by the massive improvements in OCR and how they can be applied to digitising boring paper records. Decided to start out with the most boring problem of them all - credit card and bank statements. I decided this would also be a great project to make the leap to Python and Django. So, without speaking to a single potential customer, I threw myself into coding. After a while, I realised Laravel is so much better and jumped back to that. Have learned loads as a result. I've built a local prototype that works really well with impressive accuracy. However, I noticed the signs of fatigue and self-doubt that often mean a project is abandoned at 80% without seeing the light of day. So I decided to find a domain name and put the totally half-baked and not-yet-functioning version online. A crappy, embarrassing, non-functional version. But at least I might get some feedback, which is more likely to inspire me to keep going and work out how I could market this. https://www.statementsamurai.com https://www.statementsamurai.com I'm giving myself a week or two to refresh, then will press ahead some more and put the minimal functionality online while thinking about how to find users. Yeah, about that lean thing...

I learned a lot about recommendation engines in general, the different steps of the process, how to solve the exploitation vs exploration dilema for each one and how to use the existing tools available for it.

  https://github.com/quadnix/octo https://github.com/quadnix/octo I have been trying to release this for some time now. Its a wrapper on top of cloud technologies, like AWS, so developers don’t have to understand low level devops operations. Much like AWS CDK or Terraform, but build around familiar concepts like Server, Environment, Deployment, Regions, etc. Its a framework that allows you to write your infrastructure in code, and an example in English would be like, Hey Octo, build me a region in US East with QA and Staging environment. Build my Backend repo, publish my docker image, and run it in QA, then promote to Staging. Of course this would be written in code, which would roughly be about 10-20 lines of code, easily testable, and easy to understand.

  https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/color-blind-map-fixer/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/color-blind-m... I made this so I could share pictures of maps with my color blind friend. You right click on a picture of a map, select color-blind map fixer and it re-colors the map. I made it in about a day, it needs some work to handle edges (especially because many pictures of labeled maps are jpegs with artifacts instead of pngs for some reason) and it's slower than it should be. At some point, Mozilla decided that in order to log in, I should use some sort of Google authenticator app for some reason. I dropped and broke the phone that app was installed on. So it's unlikely I will ever work on again to this or any other Firefox add-on sadly.

  My half baked project (more of an idea really) is a toe-clipping robot. No really, I'm serious. Like many older folks I have some mobility issues. Nothing that stops me from doing most things I need to do, but trying to bend over every couple of weeks for minutes at a time, and trying to get a good look in an awkward position to make sure I'm getting a reasonably straight cut to avoid ingrown nails is a challenge. Of course there are all sorts of folks (like myself) who somehow manage, but there are a lot more who can't. Yes there are things that claim to be solutions out there. A big one is a clipper attached to a long pole with a trigger to squeeze the clippers. If you already have mobility issues that ends up feeling more like a Rube Goldberg solution (I highly recommend trying it yourself sometime if you need proof it doesn't really work). Yes, you can pay for a pedicure - but those are a little expensive if you go out for it, and very expensive if you pay for them to come in. The robot itself would need to be able to manipulate two stainless steel plates to clip the nail but not the toe. I suspect a vacuum that has both Lidar and a Camera could be hacked into such a beast - though the programming would obviously be a challenge. And yes, if you can price it under $1k I guarantee to buy the first one :-)
  • azornathogron 3y ago
    I would have a slightly different approach here. Instead of trying to make the thing smart with lots of sensors I would start from the "clippers on a long pole" or some other manually-actuated design and try to solve the things that make it fail in reality. Some ideas: Clippers on a unit that just sits stationary on the floor, actuation via a cable, so you can hold the actuator but the clippers don't wobble around. Some control to move the clippers but also some reliance on being able to position your foot. A foot rest that is designed to help you position your foot correctly (with, eg, individual toe-rest, etc). Would need to experiment a bit to work out what clipper or foot-rest movement is actually needed - the less the better, for simplicity and reliability, but given users have mobility problems and most people aren't super dexterous with their toes anyway, perhaps it does need several axes of controllable motion. I imagine one problem is seeing what you're doing so add a camera in the unit on the floor, put a display in the control unit. Nice nail close-up to work with ;-) If everything is motorized you can use a smartphone for the control unit, but motorization might not be the best approach and wouldn't be my initial approach. "Actuation via cable" could mean a literal physical cable like a bicycle brake cable. Actual clippers are cheap so if it makes things easier to design you can use, eg, multiple clippers in the floor unit (different sizes or angles) to use for different nails. (I don't mean clip multiple nails at once) For woodworking/working with machine tools, you can get lasers that fit to the tool and show on the piece exactly where the cut will be. These are very simple (they're just static things). Perhaps something similar could be included to help with positioning. Again, the human will be doing the positioning, just want to give them good controls and clear direct feedback to work with.

  https://github.com/muxamilian/poor-mans-vr https://github.com/muxamilian/poor-mans-vr A poor man's VR: Using the front camera and tensorflow.js, the smartphone becomes a “window” into the real world. Video and image content appear as if they were seen through this window. To do this, the viewer’s position is determined using a neural network. The viewed content is then moved according to the viewer’s position. This makes it seem like the content is physically behind the smartphone and is viewed through the smartphone’s screen. This effect is especially useful for content captured using an ultra-wide lens.
• vinc 3y ago
  https://geonde.com/ https://geonde.com/ https://github.com/vinc/geonde.com/ https://github.com/vinc/geonde.com/ I've been looking into carbon aware computing recently and I wanted an API to get the carbon intensity of the electricity grid in Europe. Then I needed weather data so I reused a piece of code I built a decade ago to get forecasts from the GFS, and another one to get real time data from airports around the world. And finally I needed another API to get the latitude and longitude of a city so I reused yet another old piece of code I wrote a long time ago. After a month of coding it looks like I got the beginning of an environmental platform for green computing. But it's definitely half baked. And there are good alternatives for each API that exists already. I found a domain for it and made a landing page, and who knows, it might be useful to other people.

  I've built and alpha released a booking management system for a local business that delivers construction materials. The setup involves the operators that record bookings via phone calls into the booking system. Then they have the drivers perform deliveries for those bookings, which they track through the mobile apps that are powered by the booking system. I also built a quote calculator, which is an extension of the booking system. Here is the tech stack I’ve setup for productivity and fast iteration. Booking system: - MySQL - Laravel - Tailwind - React & InertiaJS Quote calculator: - Laravel Powered API (queries the booking system) - Tailwind - React Mobile apps: - Laravel Powered API - Flutter (iOS and Android) - Laravel Sanctum for API Auth Infrastructure: - Twilio for SMS notifications - GitHub for source code hosting - Mailgun for transactional emails - CloudFlare for DDoS protection and caching - Firebase Cloud Messaging for push notifications - Laravel Forge for server maintenance and deployments I later hired a young and very talented developer that is now helping me maintain and further build the booking system while I shifted my primary focus to the apps. Professionally, I am a frontend developer but have also developed full stack (Laravel based) systems for smaller client projects. I wish I could share screenshots and the links but sadly for anonimity reasons I cannot. Happy to answer questions and also open to feedback!

  https://github.com/denzyldick/phanalist https://github.com/denzyldick/phanalist I'm trying to write a static analyzer for PHP. It's written in RUST and it's a personal project of mine to learn rust and also make a FAST static analyzer for PHP projects that are big. I started with this project because the current static analyzers in the PHP ecosystem are slow. It would be nice if there were people that would like to contribute. If you want to learn rust and you have PHP experience you are welcome to help. The project is it early stages. Right know the focus is on writing the checks that are needed. The current checks that are implemented are: - Detect when the cyclomatic complexity of a method is too high. The current threshold is 10. - Extending undefined classes. - Having a try/catch with an empty catch that doesn't do anything. - A method that has more than five parameters. - Methods without modifiers(private, public & protected). - Classes that start with a lowercase. - Check if a method exists when called inside another method. - Methods that return a value without defining a return type. - Constants that have all letters in lowercase. - Parameters without any type. - Correct location for the PHP opening tag.
• simpaticoder 3y ago
  Simpatico (https://simpatico.io https://simpatico.io, MIT on github) is a collection of related ideas and projects. First, it's a minimalist, user-respecting, single-process, no-build web server written in ~500 lines of node. The server supports caching and file watching, markdown, letsencrypt TLS, and websockets. It does Etag client caching and disallows any 3rd party resource access with headers. https://simpatico.io/reflector https://simpatico.io/reflector Second, it defines "literate markdown" or "litmd", based on Knuth's literate programming, that executes markdown code blocks in the browser. HTML, CSS, JS and Markdown are supported. This feature started as a hack to get around IntelliJ's inability to do syntax-highlighting on html in the body of a markdown file! Litmd also has good testing support, changing the background and favicon if any exceptions are thrown. Markdown is now my test harness. https://simpatico.io/lit https://simpatico.io/lit Third, there is a wonderful encrypted chat client that uses crypto.subtle to generate private/public keys in the browser, per tab, and use them to send messages. Currently these are entirely ephemeral, which aids testing. Eventually they will be stored in local storage. Each client has a GUID URL identifier, which I've exposed as both a link and a QR code for easily connecting with others on a mobile device. I think of it as an "anteroom" for social contact, useful in bars, parties or conferences where giving out more sensitive information like telephone or email may not be desirable. https://simpatico.io/chat https://simpatico.io/chat Chat is intended to generalize enable what I call "monomorphic javascript" wherein the browser becomes a server, chat becomes structured, and people code programs locally and share them easily with each other. (The original tagline was "Making software together") This remains the vision. In some ways I'm like a novelist inventing his own typewriter, and so far I only have the typewriter and some essays I wrote with it. But the novel is still there, still driving everything. https://simpatico.io/notes/simpatico https://simpatico.io/notes/simpatico I've liked the tooling so much (tiny, no build, very few and very small dependencies, low start-up time) that I've used it to explore some novel data-structures and algorithms (https://simpatico.io/stree3 https://simpatico.io/stree3, https://simpatico.io/combine2 https://simpatico.io/combine2), and also to host "kata", or exercises in 3rd party technology like Angular (https://simpatico.io/kata/angular/my-project/bundle https://simpatico.io/kata/angular/my-project/bundle), or browser tech like svg (https://simpatico.io/svg https://simpatico.io/svg) or crypto (https://simpatico.io/crypto https://simpatico.io/crypto). I'm glad I decided to start running on a public host early. It's been an education. I don't think "full stack" devs who are used to handing off CI/CD and operations to other teams realize how insulated we are from the internet. There are constant probes, scripts trying to get into the system, trying to break it, on all open ports. It's fascinating. It's also been an education in bash scripting, systemd, and ssh (especially reading auth.log). The key here is keeping the stakes low - at best attackers will get a $5/mo VPS. It's amazing how much such a system can do - greatly inspired by Justine Tunney's redbean server, and others. (https://simpatico.io/notes/inspiration https://simpatico.io/notes/inspiration) It's been validating to see how, almost by accident, this project is part of the "indie web" and also "local first". To see other people like DHH (https://twitter.com/dhh/status/1655076668787097607 https://twitter.com/dhh/status/1655076668787097607) and projects like Svelte (https://devclass.com/2023/05/11/typescript-is-not-worth-it-for-developing-libraries-says-svelte-author-as-team-switches-to-javascript-and-jsdoc/ https://devclass.com/2023/05/11/typescript-is-not-worth-it-f...) start using plain javascript also feels right. Currently, everything is in one repo so it's not easy to fork and use for yourself. You'd need to do a lot of deleting. One of my todos is to publish to NPM and make the process of spinning up your own reflector easier. However, this is not my primary use case! The primary use case is to get people coding in the browser!

  Ah, another former Saint-Petersburg resident. Hi there, Alexander! Working on a retro-computer BLE/USB keyboard right now (HW&FW), with quality, low latency, and emulator/HW compatibility as the special sauce: https://twitter.com/spbnick/status/1546555198046457856 https://twitter.com/spbnick/status/1546555198046457856 But then I got distracted into building a device for testing its latency: https://github.com/spbnick/keypecker https://github.com/spbnick/keypecker https://twitter.com/spbnick/status/1645057450431635456 https://twitter.com/spbnick/status/1645057450431635456 The FW is quite complete, but I only have one HW implementation :D And then I got distracted trying to find a good way to acquire and retain the requisite deep BLE knowledge (already had some for USB), and drifted into exploring knowledge graphs as a means of processing and recording that knowledge. Turned out all of knowledge graph databases are heavily front-loaded with schema development (and there are no actual GUI apps for them), whereas I have no idea what the schema will be, and would like to experiment with unconstrained data first. So I'm building a Python tool/library to allow free-form knowledge graph creation and schema inference, with data/schema export to some knowledge graph databases (like TypeDB or Stardog). I got to figuring out graph-building operators and expressions so far, and am making them work (the code probably doesn't make much sense): https://github.com/spbnick/knob https://github.com/spbnick/knob An STM32-based business-card synth with touch-sensitive back-lighted keys.

  I have been working on a a bunch of disconnected "smart" bicycle dashcam ideas. See https://www.hotelexistence.ca/bicycledashcam/ https://www.hotelexistence.ca/bicycledashcam/ for version 5, which was just blind spot monitoring. I've also played around with license plate recognition and depth mapping. Primarily, for me, this is a just a fun exercise. Looking at exploring: - Recognize the license plates of the cars around you. From a picture, it would look at the plates on all the cars, and then associate a plate number with the picture - Record the speed of the cars around you - Record the proximity of the cars around you - A driver readable display, ie: “Driver ABCD1234, your current speed is 45”. Like a mobile Toronto Watch Your Speed program sign. Would a driver allow a cyclist more space if they were aware their actions are being logged? - Log this data on a remote server - Share this data, with a group. Perhaps associate “near miss” data from many cyclists, and identify troublesome areas, or troublesome cars.

    Negating a selection criterion ('no swimming pool').
    • mike128 3y ago
      Thank you for the input. Would you care expanding on why you would find it useful?
      • natmaka 3y ago
        Right now it isn't very useful as there is only one pertinent criterion (swimming pool) (therefore this isn't very selective) and the database isn't shock-full of properties (therefore there isn't much 'noise' in a query result). However I bet that, with time, other boolean criteria will appear while the DB will grow, leading to more and more need for selectivity (weeding out 'noise').

  https://picrankr.com https://picrankr.com - upload pictures and have friends rank them. I've already showed it to enough people to know about some of the issues the idea has, and will improve it whenever I find the time . Some issues: - most issues where people need to choose a pic is a large N problem (100s of pics, not a handful) - no-one wants to bubble sort pics for large N - people want qualitative feedback, not only quantitative There are some other issues I know about as well, such as image compression, etc., but feel free to try it out and give additional feedback :)

  https://gencmd.com https://gencmd.com Generate cmd line options on the cmd line. The web interface is a quick trial ground, but the real productivity boost is with the cli with integration in-place at the prompt. As of now, it's very basic and working directly of the PaLM Text Bison model, but I'm adding more features and fine tuning. Also, trying to make it usable by enterprises. E.g. $ gencmd find txt files that contain the text hello find . -type f -name "*.txt" | xargs grep -i hello find . -type f -name "*.txt" -exec grep -i "hello" {} \; find . -type f -name "*.txt" -exec grep -i hello {} \; $ gencmd -c grep find txt files that contain the text hello grep -r hello *.txt grep -r "hello" \*.txt If you want to know more about how I went about building it, I've written about it here: https://medium.com/@sathishvj/gencmd-generate-commands-with-generative-ai-d945b2a1d050 https://medium.com/@sathishvj/gencmd-generate-commands-with-...

  https://beets.studio/ https://beets.studio/ https://github.com/brandongregoryscott/beets https://github.com/brandongregoryscott/beets I started building this audio workstation web app using Tone.js, Supabase and Evergreen, Segment’s design system over two years ago. “Digital audio workstation” may be an overkill descriptor, but it has sample sequencing functionality, which is what I was aiming for (similar workflows to the SP404 or PO 33 K.O. samplers). I haven’t ever really promoted it and I’ve slowed down the feature work on it, but it was a lot of fun to build, and I learned a lot - I was an early adopter of Supabase, which the entire backend is hosted with. Maybe it can serve as inspiration for someone else’s passion project - it’s all open source!

Although it's still buggy and slow as heck (prototyped with electronjs), it has been very helpful and effective for me so far. Aside from slowly reading and finishing a book[1], I alternate in doing these on my free time: - learn zig (currently with ziglings) - learn 3D gamedev with godot - learn blender - read Crafting Interpreters - read Computer Graphics from Scratch - meditate consistently every early evening Although the pacing is gradual and slower compared to traditional means, it's more relaxed and it doesn't intrude in my daily main activities. I also learn better due to natural spacing effect, which also gives me time to reflect on what I did. Currently thinking of rewriting it in the future, especially the scheduler, but it's good enough for now, I'm instead searching for a remote work to support development.

Zoom in and out from one image to small thumbnails with your mousewheel in seconds. All images are grouped as you have them on your disk and arranged in a huge landscape. RuGiVi can work with hundred thousand of images at once. Tested with around 700.000 images, that's a RuGiVi Pixel size of 4.600.000 x 4.400.000 pixels or 20.240.000 Megapixels or 10.120.000 Full HD Screens to be scrolled through.

Everything works with hardlinks. Image and Media organizers running on databases were not applicable for me. The were not portable enough and their categorization always relied on their database so no chance the file manager or another program worked with it. Also I always had the problem with backups, renaming files outside the database-system etc etc. Regarding the sensitivity of the (adult) content, I also did not want to be dependable on big companies and their software. https://github.com/pronopython/fplyr https://github.com/pronopython/fplyr Fplyr is a background audio sample and music player specialized in playing moaning sounds and relaxing music for adult entertainment purpose.

All the time I have this impression, it's half-baked. I believe in it so much, that I haven't changed the version of my app to mature 1.0.0 :-) It's still in 0.9.x :-D Initially, our goal was to create a fast, reliable, privacy-friendly and no-distraction writing app for us. We were the first users. It needed to satisfy us. Meanwhile, we started collecting feedback from our users. We wanted to know what worked. People using Difree submitted many interesting ideas for our product. Here are some ideas: 1. monospaced fonts 2. dark theme 3. different font sizes 4. minimalistic view (WIP) 5. word counter (WIP) We've been still working on Difree and it still gives us fun :-) Tell me what you think! We want to hear and learn more :-) Happy writing, Olek

  https://twinflights.com https://twinflights.com I love to travel and often times I have to go to somewhere. This search allows me to plan additional stops in between my origin and destination. As an example, if I want to fly from Amsterdam to New York you can take a direct flight, or add a stop somewhere and add that destination as another stop. So maybe you could visit London for a few days, or Washington or maybe Bermuda. Another one I am working on is https://startenv.com https://startenv.com, this one will automatically convert your docker compose file to a test/staging environment whenever you create a PR or for specific branches. This way your QA or clients can give feedback for a specific feature before you release it. I've been using it for a few weeks and I am really liking it (but of course I am biased). While TwinFlights is a side project I am hoping to turn StartEnv into a proper B2B SaaS. If you think this could fit your business, please reach out to me and I'll do my best to make it worth your time. :)

    twinflights is something I could use. Is it possible to select number of stop overs on each direction? e.g. often I like to wander on way out from home. But then on way back I just want to get home ASAP. In terms of the UX, a table view is a bit daunting while I'm starting with an exploration mindset, perhaps start the user with a map instead? Also FYI, I randomly clicked on Book a flight. It led me to Kiwi but the price went up from 158 to 198. I tried a few other buttons and the price stayed the same. Thanks for sharing this, looking forward to see where you take it.

But then on way back I just want to get home ASAP. This is something I've been working on because often times I also want this. The first step was adding one-way flights, the next step is making this configurable! > In terms of the UX, a table view is a bit daunting while I'm starting with an exploration mindset, perhaps start the user with a map instead? The 'table' view is the search result correct? Adding a map would actually sound very nice. It would give you the perfect overview of all of your options including price. > Also FYI, I randomly clicked on Book a flight. It led me to Kiwi but the price went up from 158 to 198. I tried a few other buttons and the price stayed the same. I am building this on top of Tequila (the Kiwi API) and their rate limit is quite generous, but still not enough to do real time searches. Every day I am scraping all flights put them into a database (MySQL and Neo4J) so that I can search for the cheapest alternative flights given between point A and B. Because of this the prices might sometimes be a bit outdated, but that also works both ways. I am working on trying to optimise this though. I appreciate your comments, thank you very much!

• mikewarot 3y ago
  I've been pursuing a path to cheap and easy PetaFLOP on a chip architecture that is decidedly edgy... it might work out great, or might be a miserable failure... the BitGrid[1]. It's dead nuts simple... a cartesian grid of 4 bit input, 4 bit output LUTs, latched and clocked in 2 phases (like the colors on a checkerboard) to prevent race conditions. It's a Turing complete architecture that doesn't have the routing issues of an FPGA because there's no routing hardware in the way. But it is also nuts because there's no routing fabric to get data rapidly across the chip. If you can unlearn the aversion to latency that we've all had since the days of TTL and the IMSAI, you realize that you could clock an array at least 3 Ghz, giving 3 billion answers/second. It's all a question of programming. (Which is where I'm stuck right now, analysis paralysis) I've got an emulator that works reasonably well on my PC. Now I've got to write the actual software that can generate binaries for it, and the eventual chip. [1] https://github.com/mikewarot/Bitgrid https://github.com/mikewarot/Bitgrid

  Facing escalating housing costs and rent? TenantToken offers an innovative approach to address the housing market’s flaws. Our model allows tenants to earn community currency tokens, backed by local real estate assets, as they pay their rent. These tokens not only act as a hedge against inflation but can also be used for local purchases or even converted to equity in local real estate over time. Landlords benefit from increased property value due to community investments, while tenants have a pathway to homeownership. We’re creating a win-win ecosystem that bridges the affordability gap, backed by a solid business model where the community thrives together. Our website is Tenanttoken.org Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback!
