What i have working as of now: - submit a video and get a snapshot of which stocks were mentioned, sentiment (buy/sell), price delta and reasoning. - analyze a channel and get a performance 'report card' of that channel

#222A Jellyfin music client for Linux written in Rust and GTK: https://github.com/Fingel/gelly I thought it would be pretty simple, but here I am almost 6 months later still adding features. The positive feedback has been nice, though! People seem to appreciate (like I do) that its fast and doesn't use Electron or some other cross platform toolkit. Learning a lot. It's not vibe coded. Sad that I have to make that qualifi…

#223This is mainly for going to sleep instead of night time overthinking, mind racing, insomnia etc.

#225The second bubble there is a tool for 3D visualization and analytics of Claude Code sessions. The sample conversation is the one that made the tool itself!
That was a fun toy I learned a lot from. I’m not expanding that but am working intensely on the first bubble:
thinkt a CLI/TUI/Webapp for exploring your LLM conversations. Makes it easy to see all your local projects, view them, and export them. It has an embedded OpenAPI server and MCP server.
So you can open Kimi and say “use thinkt mcp to look at my last Claude session in this project, look at the thinking at the end and report on the issues we were facing”.
I added Claude Teams support by launching a Team and having that team look at its own traces and the changing ~/.Claude folder. Similar for Gemini CLI and Copilot (which still need work).
Doing it in the open. Only 2 weeks old - usable, but early. I’m only posting as it’s what I’m working on. Still working on polish and deeper review (it is vibe-crafted). There’s ergonomic issues with ports and DuckDB. Coming up next is VSCode extension and an exporter/collecter for remote agents.

#226Microplastics are bad. People are concerned that there are microplastics in your balls! And that this could epigenetically affect downstream generations. I want to test that theory with a real human, not an animal model. My plan: collect my own sperm samples over time and do whole DNA preps + basic body metrics. Sperm regenerates approximately every 10w, so planning time series over 10w. Next, inject myself to ~10x t…
I was just listening to something the other day about how there is essentially no way to study this right now, and the most common method of microplastic detection in samples has been proven largely inaccurate.
Is there some reason we think microplastics are more dangerous than the other nanoparticles of inorganic dust we consume and inhale every day? Serious question - I’ve got enough to worry about and this seems… very low on that list?

#227A platform to efficiently work with any data right in the browser. Like interactively visualizing millions or rows, and at the same time augmenting the data with domain-specific capabilities. For instance, the cheminformatics plugin automatically recognizes molecules and provides proper rendering, substructure search etc. Sort of a Swiss Army knife for scientific data.
Not really a new idea, been working on it for many years already :)

#228It uses a simple points model instead of streaks or financial-style tracking to make expectations visible, progress clear, and follow-through easier.
In real use it’s solving three main problems: - As a Family Chore Chart — a digital chore system that actually gets kids engaged with responsibilities using points and rewards. - As a Personal Habit Tracker — a way for individuals to organize routines, add notes, and earn points toward meaningful self-defined rewards. - As Complete Homeschool Management — tracking assignments, logging progress by subject, and generating reports and transcripts for multiple students.
It’s entirely web-based (no app download) and works on phones, tablets, and desktops. I’m actively iterating on it based on real use, and it’s been most useful in situations where simpler systems actually get used instead of abandoned.

#230That means I have to: - build something so I can evaluate the results. - track each of these projects separately otherwise they turn into dust after quite some time. Gladly claudesidian seems to be working well with the unstructured stream of inputs. Feel like hooking it up with some task tracker cli and calendar and notifications could make life a bit better too. - plan next projects to keep evaluating other skills and tools
It’s been discussed so many times the amount of new or personalized software that appears and will appear and it seems so true.
Whatever I built I am actively using myself - a text rewriter that cleans some of the AI speak and has MCP and cli (at https://www.refineo.app). Math teaching and solving extension at https://math.photos and a self hosted stock opportunity discovery tool that runs locally. This is just to automate what I did before manually and scale it up a bit.
> Any new ideas
There’s no product yet to cover the needs of all of us launching the software into the internet void. Any ad platform out there is a hot and very outdated mess and I just can’t. There is going to be a better way with all the capabilities we have and someone is going to really nail it.
