I am working on building an self-improving QA agent for software teams. Free and open-source.
It is an agentic testing harness with batteries, includes the test runner infra (web & mobile), memory (vector store, local embedding model powered by transformers.js, self improving loop, issue reporting.

#503I'm making a midi clock -> dual tap tempo device (I'm calling it the Twin tap tempo toy, or Tttt). It's based on an Arduino Esplora linked to a dual channel optocoupler / relay.
I'm building it because I have an analogue delay and an an analogue tremolo which each take tap tempo input I want to be able to slave them simultaneously to my DAW (Reaper). I could only find one product (Disaster Area Designs micro.clock) which seems to readily do what I want, and it is hard to find and expensive.
The software side has been pretty easy for me, now I am just troubleshooting the Arduino -> relay connection as currently it is not behaving.
I'll probably sling the code and other docs on Github at some point :)

#504- a GUI (in python) for my "ancient" 3D printer to draw circuits on copper plates
- the gcode scripts are almost done !!
- a yet another static site generator (yaml, jinja2)
- a microcontroller for a hardware project (arduino)
- enhancements and reports for a desktop application (python)

#505"what if… economics", a simple one-page economics simulator: https://whatifeconomics.com
I wanted to have a place to see the effect of changing macroeconomic factors, e.g. interest rate, inflation, unemployment, etc. It's designed to show economic relationships for non-experts.

#506Recently ive gotten into Unity. Have made games before but always avoided engines. This time im taking a deeper dive and want to learn at least the basics of a animations, lightening, movement and lay around with interesting combat variations.
C# is fine since i already know java.

#507When I switched from engineering to product, I tried a bunch of different user insight tools. They all had their strengths and weaknesses, but they always felt... off. They gathered feedback well but it wasn't easy to answer the questions I was asking, and it was a huge chore to keep it organized.
So I hacked on https://inputbuffer.io and just opened it to a wider audience.
You hook up your user feedback source (via widget or API) and it will organize everything by content category (e.g. billing) or target (e.g. a specific page, API endpoint, CLI command etc).
Categorization isn't rigid, InputBuffer does its best to put feedback where it belongs and gives you a clear triage flow if you want the added control.
Once organized you can learn more via a quick analytics dashboard or by interrogating the data directly, chatting with InputBuffer to gain a stronger understanding of your product, with clear citations to all feedback.
I have had success on both small and large amounts of input, on traditional SaaS platforms, developer tools, open source projects and more.
Next up: automatically gathering user input from other platforms (like GitHub issues), and more research tools.

#508"what if… economics", a simple one-page economics simulator: https://whatifeconomics.com I wanted to have a place to see the effect of changing macroeconomic factors, e.g. interest rate, inflation, unemployment, etc. It's designed to show economic relationships for non-experts. Source code: https://github.com/tagawa/what-if-economics/tree/gh-pages
As someone with very little knowledge of economics, I played with the idea of writing a kind of wealth simulator, where money acts as voltage and keeps the economy running. It would allow you to eliminate jobs and replace them with AI and see how the circuit starves population groups which in turn cascade to other segments of the economy.
I never got to design a good representation of the entire ecosystem to simulate (external pressure, debt, military and technological advancements, international soft power, etc.).

#509I am working on Sidequests HQ:
SideQuests HQ is a mobile app that turns real life into a series of small, optional quests.
The idea came from noticing that most productivity apps optimize for work, and most social media optimizes for consumption. There aren’t many tools that encourage you to actually do interesting things in the real world.
The app generates challenges across categories like meeting new people, exploring your city, learning something new, creating, or helping someone else. Complete a quest, skip it, or save it for later.You can also add your own quests. There’s no streak anxiety, no leaderboard. The app is just quests designed to make life a little less repetitive.
