I have created a feed aggregator at https://techblogz.onrender.com

It's a collection of engineering blogs specifically from tech companies (updated daily).

Motivation: At some point in the past, I wanted to search for a technical term (like Kubernetes) specifically across tech company blogs to understand how that technology is being used at various companies. But I found it a pain to do this search since you have to search for that term in each blog one by one. So to solve the problem, I created this. It is also helpful for tech interview preparation. I would love for you guys to try it out and provide some feedback.

https://teamtime.n1c.dev/ : Simple app where you can add your team members + timezones to view their local times. (half baked because I imagined it being a menu-bar app)

https://atlas.n1c.dev : Map of youtube walking videos (half baked because there's a lot of content still to add and it's kind of mvp-ui)

I created a Wordle Solver app: https://best-wordle-solver.vercel.app/

Code: https://github.com/rbjakab/wordle-solver

If you get stuck with solving Wordle, just type-in the words that you've already tried, set the statuses and on the right you can see recommended words to try out.

What to add: I want to put a backend behind it, so I can list the words for you not just randomly, but sorted by their information value. The more a word could narrow down the list of words after it was used, the higher its rank.

I'm building Mass Driver[1], a tool to automate PR creation across many (many) repos, building a library of reusable changes via "patchdriver" plugins. The repos can be fed as list on CLI, via file, or via a "source" type plugin (allows github search or custom API calls), the PR creation works via a "Forge" plugin. Resulting PR list can be fetched to review status: > Of 113 given PRs, 73 merged, 30 closed not merged,…

I’m not sure what I’d use this for? Is it for when I need to enable Github Advanced Security on all 2537 repos in my org (by adding a workflow file)?

You can update your copyright notice across all you repos on 1/1/2024! Highly impactful work /s.

https://github.com/thasaleni/song-association I was making a game based on Elle Magazine's song association (YouTube Game) - In the YouTube game a guest gets a word and has 10 seconds to sing a song with the word in the lyrics (the requirement is that he must get to the part with the given word within 10 seconds) - My game in flutter displays a word, and lets the player sing into the mic while running a countdown and converting the audio to text (if it gets to the word in the lyrics within 10 seconds it stops) then it looks up the lyrics via GeniusAPI if it finds a match that is a point, if it doesn't that is a loss also if you don't get to the word within 10 seconds that is a loss

I intended to make this multiplayer but I got busy in the early stages and kind of abandoned it, intend to get back to it soon

https://alex.miller.garden/sonic-circuit/ A weird and cumbersome web based synthesizer. In the examples below, double click on a node to trigger a signal in the circuit and produce sound. Here is a "song" that a friend made with it: https://alex.miller.garden/sonic-circuit/?2.9.C4.m.1.15,6.9.... And here is "Happy Birthday": https://alex.miller.garden/sonic-circuit/?3.1.G3.m.1.24,4.1....

I highly recommend being able to use a key like control, shift or alt aswell or instead of "command" .. Command equates to "windows key" on windows which brings up the start menu.

Yes, please, it's a pain in the ass to use this website on Windows.

i have a couple:

my way of tokenizing: https://github.com/chrsBlank/Fernet_Tokenization i posted here before, i am making a social app and i dont like JWT tokenization so i made my own.

fbchatbot: https://github.com/chrsBlank/FbChatBot no longer working due to facebook api changes, i wrote that at 16yo because i could not focus on studying since i was talking to people on FB back then, this sent automatic messages and if the message contained "important" i would get a desktop notification

small toolset for various things: https://github.com/chrsBlank/autosave started as an autosaver (ctrl-S) and has more stuff implemented, i actively add more things that my coworkers ask.

Cayde,Newlight,SmartS: all projects that "started" either with friends or alone and never came to actually make them. Cayde is my personal AI that runs on a personal server (no data leaves the LAN). NewLight was gonna be an encrypted P2P messager with interesting features. SmartS would have been a "cart" for websites that could predict if the price would go down soon telling you to hold. All public on my GH: https://github.com/chrsBlank
