Building https://gemlink.app, gemlink is an Internet content collection management platform, which collects efficiently through browser extension, flexibly organizes through websites, and forms a value content network through social sharing mechanisms. It can also be used as a "Read Later" product alternatives. In a Twitter-like experience, save a content is equivalent to "tweeting" (if it's public), and if it's private, it's only visible to yourself.

Working on a Professional Upskilling AI Coach: https://www.socratify.com/

We're headed into an era of massive white-collar reskilling.

How you think > What you know.

Critical Thinking skills will be the most important skills as we AI expands throughout the economy and we're surrounding by LLMs that are highly fluent

Socratify is a Critical Thinking Coach that sharpens How You Think and Speak by Debating AI

It proposes interesting questions (currently business related) that you debate in 2 min conversation and get feedback on how you think and speak

Right now its most helpful if you're interviewing for a job or aiming for a promotion in a business related profession

I just took a fortnight off work with the intent of getting away from my laptop, but accidentally ended up making a listings site for London's independent / arts cinemas. As far as I can tell no such thing currently exists, and I feel like it should. Obviously the main thing is getting the listings data, which as far as I know (mostly) isn't readily available any other way that scraping the cinemas' websites, for whi…

Nice! No Garden Cinema? It's the best cinema in London! (And their website is great, I would imagine easy to scrape)

I built https://wherevernow.com/ to solve three visceral problems:

News Perspective Gap Compare how major events are reported by local vs international outlets (e.g. Taiwan election coverage in Taipei Times vs BBC)

Price Transparency Settle debates like "Are Xiaohongshu prices real?" by checking identical products on U.S/Walmart and China/JD.com simultaneously

Authentic Connections Join discussions on 2channel (Japan) or Reddit (Brazil) without VPN, preserving original language/cultural context

Tech approach: Country-specific keyword routing (like valentin.app for search) Lightweight proxies to bypass geo-blocks (no data storage) Crowdsourced local portal directory Would love feedback from globetrotting hackers!

I'm working on MedAngle, the world's first Super App for current + future doctors. An invite only platform, which has everything people in medschool/dental school and recent graduates need. From analytics, quizzes, summaries, x-rays , videos to tens of thousands of questions, ~100k+ students/doctors have solved over 100m questions, spent 10s of billions of seconds, and growing!

We're also working on the Premed Super App, same thing for people taking medical school entry exams like the MCAT or MDCAT.

I get to work with a bunch of top notch students and doctors, and I myself am the first ever full-stack technologist who also is a doctor in Pakistan, a country of 250 million people.

You should do all kind of events by event type, not just movies. Concerts, workshops, open lectures... london.eventhose.com. Then you should find volunteers for other cities to do the same.

Time Out should have long done that but instead they stopped their print edition.
