#652A Pinterest alternative. Sick of seeing AI generated slop on Pinterest and want to build something better.
I am also integrating it with ATProto.

#653Building a small framework for securely connecting desktop apps/clis directly to your existing browser using Native Messaging i.e no headless browsers or cloud sandboxes/proxies involved.
Inspired by secure password managers like Bitwarden, goal is to reduce detectability, avoid CAPTCHAs, and mitigate common fingerprinting pitfalls.
The idea is simple: leverage the trust your browser already has.

#654I’m still working on my physical music management application.
It integrates with MusicBrainz and Last.fm, so that I can easily add records, scrobble them, and search/track stats.
I want to figure out how to track availability for records I want to buy, which would involve interacting with marketplaces.
Using Elixir, SQLite and Phoenix LiveView, which is what I know best and lets me focus on UX and UI.

#657I've been collecting and digitizing vintage print advertisements and publishing them ( https://adretro.com ). I have tens of thousands of ads in the collection and it would take me many lifetimes to complete, but I've been using AI to extract and catalog the meta data. I can get through about 100 ads/day this way. One of my favorite ads, a computer from 1968 that "answers riddles": https://adretro.com/ads/1968-digi-c…
Ads are like graffiti. When they first appear, they are a nuisance, a menace. But in the fullness of time they become interesting relics.
Except grafitti is cool from the start, so, totally different

#658A local dictation app for Mac to use when coding. I spend a lot of time talking to Cursor, Chatgpt and needed to get rust and swift library names correctly.
Spent a lot of time on low level hardware libs to roll out my own version of VAD, grammar correction and stitching segments.
Faster than the hosted dictations tools thought it runs locally and a lot more control in terms of custom vocabulary.
