It really bothers me that current password managers will never be used by the ones we love, who probably need them just as much if not more. I'm building "a password manager for everyone." In hopes that I can get my dad, wife and everyone else I love to be safe online.

It's still a WIP. But I hope to release it in the next few weeks.

I'm building an Elixir app called Chimera. What is it? Heck if I know. It's just a bunch of stuff mashed together, hence the name. I just wanna keep busy. If you're fighting your inner perfectionist about creating the perfect side project, you don't need to! Make something beautifully hideous just for you :)

Chimera is currently an HTTPS client, an HTTPS server, and a tool that downloads pricing data from AWS for no particular reason. Why? Because I can!

Building a 3d-printer filament dryer and storage box. I mostly print nylons and PC and with the humidity here in HI it's a big pain to keep it dry enough. Even drying the spools in the oven doesn't really work because it takes days for the inner parts to dry out. So instead I'm building a heated and dehumidified box that will hold 8 spools and can feed the filament directly into the printer. The box itself is foam an…

The solution that Markforged uses for this is a modified Peli Case with a hole for the bowden tube. Seems to work pretty well.

I've just finished off (within the last hour) my version of Asteroids, which I started with enthusiasm two or three years back, then did very little after getting the basics of the game working: https://arcade.ly/games/asteroids/ Now I've finally added all the stuff I wanted to (black holes, satellites, power-ups) so it's time to pick up another project I started a long time ago and haven't really done much on: my ve…

At the moment, Flirpy - a library for controlling thermal imaging cameras: https://github.com/LJMUAstroecology/flirpy

Works with most of FLIR's camera cores (eg Lepton, Boson and Tau).

I'm also working on a system for detecting animals in aerial images in real time (on drones). I've spent a lot of time trying to automate as much of the hardware setup as possible using a mixture of Ansible and Docker. Currently private pending publication, but the whole platform will be open source (including ML pipeline, camera gimbal models, PCBs etc).

They effects are quite eye catching. Can you tell us how you built them?
