A programming language that makes your game multiplayer automatically! It integrates rollback netcode into the programming language itself, guaranteeing that whatever you code is deterministic and can be snapshotted and rolled back. Then it integrates the networking and server automatically so you can just code your game like a singleplayer game and it'll be multiplayer automatically! I've been working on this for four years now.

A philosophical task manager, based on notable philosophers such as Baudrillard, Foucault, etc. It's been a fun game of reading these works, trying to distill their essence, and putting them through the LLMs to see what comes out. Currently it's not one task manager but rather many prototypes, and I'm trying to reconcile various design issues. In the same way that Marx's "philosophy" is essentially a "praxis" of political and economic power, which does not presuppose a "truth" but rather creates one, my task manager is a pragmatic tool for establishing the meaning of life.

I am building Bloomberry, an alternative to tools like Builtwith for finding companies that use a specific enterprise tech, as soon as we detect them

Most tools just focus on frontend tech like Shopify or Wordpress. Bloomberry shows you who uses backend tools like Hubspot, or Workday, or Gitlab for example.

Example: https://bloomberry.com/data/github-enterprise - companies that use Github

For the last couple of months I was working daily, and intensely, on Meltdown. The project started in 2024, but I retook it recently and improved/extended it a lot.

https://meltdown.merkoba.com

This is an AI Harness + Platform, made in Python and Tkinter.

It has a lot of advanced features, arguments, commands, shortcuts.

Lots of widgets and the markdown parser were done from scratch.

It has a powerful API to create conversational sessions interactively.

You can learn about it on a blog post I made:

I have been working on my master's thesis. I am not really young anymore, so finding the time was tricky.. until I started working with AI agents. Then I started using frontier models and I couldn't sleep anymore, trying to maximize my usage limits. The project is called Agent Sandboxing Framework. If you are interested in AI agents and security, I’d love to hear what you think.
