I am working on a LEGO-like News Feed that allows you to combine different AI models and Filter/Ranking Blocks to create your own For You feeds. You can take control of the algorithm and iteratively train your algorithm on the data you specify. No more black box feeds that try to optimize you into mindless scrolling.

If you have diverse interests (say Tech vs Games vs Traveling), they can each be contained within their own feeds and your recommendation signals will not be polluted between the different feeds.

I've just deployed the other day with a very basic design, but basic functionality tested - a way to charge people to send you messages. Trying to onboard first users now

A website making trail data from OpenStreetMap easily browsable: https://trailcatalog.org/ Myself and a friend have been working on this for quite a while. It's frustrating because it has come so far (showing trail data worldwide interactively on a tiny budget is challenging), and yet it is so far from being something super useful like AllTrails due to low data quality and a lack of relevant features (photos, reviews…

Have you looked into following the links from OSM elements to Wikidata items and their associated Wikipedia/WikiVoyage articles, Commons images etc.?

Ahh this is a good idea, my friend in fact has been asking me to add it forever. I've been hesitating since the data seems so sparse but I think you're both right. Thank you for the feedback!

* Tool that creates Twitter (X?) / Instagram feeds to RSS so I don't have to deal with algorithms etc. * A turn based game that is essentially "football manager for counter strike" where you control the whole team and their actions in "planning" and "execution" phases. * I run a Slack community for the South African tech scene, constantly hovering between "I wish I could sell this and move on" and "I really should pu…

How do early stage Tech enterprises deal with the instability and problematic infrastructure in South Africa?

https://www.pgrammer.com/ Coding interview practice questions like LeetCode but using GPT to analyze the code and provide hints when you get stuck. It will also look over your submission and give feedback like an interviewer. I've conducted A LOT of interviews and have been the interviewee plenty of times. To me the hardest part about prepping on LeetCode was that I would sometimes get stuck on something. Not necessa…

Oh nice, this could be my new favorite thing. It's less lonely than the usual. It's great for warming up, basically just trying to code from memory instead of relying on docs. I love that it yells at me for naming my variables "xxx" too. I also love that it goes all "Candidate did not follow instructions" when it tells me not to use a specific function, but also tells me that the solution would get the right answer.…

Thanks for that feedback! I will add a monthly option today.

https://pastmaps.com Been working on this as a new way to find, explore, and view old historical maps and aerials of my area. Still heavily in development but have been surprised by some early traffic stats (1-2K organic uniques / mo and growing 200%+ m/m right now) Hoping to add in more advanced map tooling within the next week or 2, including new basemap options, 3d terrain view, and then a proper search box which…

This is really cool, makes me nostalgic for a lot of time georeferencing random maps from the library of congress or from municipal archives etc.

In that same vein, you could add a feature where users could contribute georeferenced map files for community review and approval--I think that would really increase your scalability. I see you have an email for that currently.

I've created "AlbertBro," an AI math tutor chatbot for kids aged 10 to 16. It helps with math homework by solving problems from photos. Available as a Progressive Web App at https://photo2math.com?hn=1 Mobile users can snap a math problem pic, desktop offers drag-drop, paste & file upload. Crop pics for accuracy, AI converts to LaTeX for analysis. The rest is math GPT with a system prompt

1) can it recognize handwriting? 2) can it identify where a child made a mistake when ‘showing their work’ aka error analysis? A tool that guides a kid to their mistakes would probably be more useful than on that solves a problem on their behalf.

https://www.semiform.ai - playing around with a replacement for web forms using LLMs to parse free-text responses and create structured data.

Not perfect right now (you can try it out at https://www.semiform.ai/examples to see what I mean) - trying to figure out a few things:

- How to deal with a 'half-completed' response where the user hasn't provided all the requested information? Not really possible for most traditional forms if fields are required. Could be helpful or counterproductive.

- Need to make it simpler for non-technical users to set up an effective form. Right now planning to add templates to help with this, but I think there's more to be done here

It seems you were meant to reply to francescogior instead.

You are quite right.
