It uses Go & SQLite, the nice thing is that the DB is readonly and baked into the deployed container. I use cron on my home PC to do the scraping, update the DB and deploy a new version of the site using Kamal
"Google maps but for old maps": https://pastmaps.com This is a solo startup that I've been working on for 2 years now. It's a labor of love and I'm very lucky and thankful that it's big enough to surprisingly pay all of our bills. Still constantly feeling FOMO over all of my startup buddies working with AI and LLMs while I plug away at old maps and GIS . It gets ~80K MAUs and just slowly and consistently is growing o…
I would absolutely love if you brought Canadian maps to this. I work for Build Canada and I would love to see some maps from the fur trade and early exploration to tell stories. If you want to chat my email is brendan at buildcanada.com
It's still going well, and I've been making a ton of progress lately by using AI agents. I'm very excited to launch my new homepage and pricing soon, plus some other really cool side projects that I've built.
I'm quite proud of this renaming tool as well: https://docspring.github.io/renamify/
I just finished some new features today and launched v0.5.0. The VS Code extension and MCP server are both really handy. I've been using them for quite a few different renames lately. This is one I did today: https://docspring.github.io/renamify/case-studies/deploy-req...
Building an app where 1 pushup = 1 minute of scrolling allowed [1]. We've fiiinally started to grow and reached a whooping $30k in the last month!! I was literally thinking about quitting in August. My motivation is now at an all-time high - some users have done >8k pushups :) As always, the key has been the marketing (10M views on Instagram). But we have to improve the product to make people love it even more. So th…
Neat idea, but how does that work? Can an app limit other apps ? I didn't know it was possible.
From my side, I've been working on a multi-lingual first words book for a baby. None of the published books have our mix of languages (which is fair enough, I don't think there is much of a market for it!) and so I decided to create our own. It's just images and then the word translated into three different languages alongside it (like a typical first words book). I used Google's AI for the images, and it has done a surprisingly good job of creating baby friendly images, with enough detail to spark interest.
The other tangential benefit is that I found it awkward to speak in my mother tongue, but having this book helps break that by having me speak in that language and then leads to it feeling much more natural in other contexts with babies.
This is not very technical project (though if I had the time it could easily become a fun project where people select their unique mix of languages and the book gets produced).
If anybody is in a similar boat and wants to produce their own version for their mix of languages then please let me know and message here - I will happily share the Canva file with you (you'll just need to write in the words yourself). (This idea of sharing is inspired very directly by Derek Sivers 'Sharing' idea [0])
Building the retrieval and memory maintenance layer. Interesting problems around decomposing solutions into reusable patterns, ranking/deduping at scale, keeping latency under 100ms. Uses MCP so it works across IDEs.
Early benchmarks look promising. https://memco.ai if you want to try it.

It's a way to build truly native iOS, Android and HarmonyOS applications in Haskell using https://lynxjs.org and https://github.com/dmjio/miso, it uses a similar approach to react-native.
I love these threads, and always learn or pick up something new. From my side, I've been working on a multi-lingual first words book for a baby.
