But in any way, I think it will be a great resource for developers to level up :)

#623Basically a simple way to CRUD dicts to disk without needing a separate database (uses SQLite underneath). I've always liked MongoDB ease of use, and in many quick hacks/projects I don't want to write custom SQL or bring in a proper ORM or install a db server.
TBH the main motivation is to just work on a simple side project with no stress, no need to productize it, and no need to obsess over productivity / can tinker to my heart's content.
Mostly done now tho, so probably will do something else next month :)

#624I am busy rebuilding my music studio with only gear from the late 90s/2000. It's much more fun to relive my youth and with patience less expensive than I thought.
Where do you source vintage audio gear from?

#625I’m working on a collaborative reading app called Rdrs. You can upload a ebook, create a reading group, invite others and your reading position, comments and highlights are synced live with the group. You can also read privately, and as its web-based is available on any device. I’m still in active development so there may be bugs or crashes, but I’d be very interested in your feedback. https://www.rdrs.app
This a really cool idea. I've just started a book club with my room mates and we'd be keen to give this a try, especially if we can leave notes/thoughts for one another as we go through
Yes, you can leave comments on text and I've just implemented comment replies, so you can have conversations on the comments. You can upload your own books as long as they're DRM-free epubs.
Please be aware it's still very buggy so bits may break. If you do decide to try it, I'd appreciate any bug reports or feature ideas you may have.

#626I'm working on https://nuenki.app/ , a language learning tool. It teaches you a language while you procrastinate by inserting translations of appropriate-difficulty sentences into webpages as you browse HN etc. Currently trying to reduce costs by switching from using DeepL (high quality, low latency, high cost) everywhere to a hybrid that also uses Claude (high quality, high latency, low cost) for text that is far fr…
Toucan [1] does something similar (but I think only at a word level, not sentences), so might be worth looking at what they do in terms of marketing.
Also, have you considered throwing in a spaced repetition component to the process? Really helpful when building an active voc.

#627It's running two different strategies, and basically break-even (slightly positive), though it should have annualized sharpe ratios of >= 1.
Parameter space has 48 values, no machine-learning, a single-threaded backtest is < 5s on my old laptop.

#628I'm working on https://reciperium.com I've added a tutorial on https://learn.reciperium.com and a playground https://play.reciperium.com and I have around 4 active users (including myself, the most active and the target for this platform haha). In a nutshell, reciperium is the center of all my recipes, I was tired of finding recipes on different channels (youtube, reddit, instagram, google, friends, etc), and not hav…
This is really cool! And having recipes on this GitHub style gives a familiar touch

#629Building an electric 1973 Ferrari Dino to compete in the battle of the builders at SEMA in November. Lots of fun electronics and software, as well as mechanical challenges to overcome.

#630It will just need a minute to build a multi-agent workflow on MindPal. If you are having complicated AI processes that could not be done by ChatGPT, give it a go at https://mindpal.space/
