Currently a one-man side project: https://laboratory.love Last year PlasticList discovered that 86% of food products they tested contain plastic chemicals—including 100% of baby food tested. The EU just lowered their "safe" BPA limit by 20,000x. Meanwhile, the FDA allows levels 100x higher than what Europe considers safe. This seemed like a solvable problem. Laboratory.love lets you crowdfund independent testing of s…

Incredible.

Often desired something like this so thank you for making this happen.

This goes against the grain - but I’m starting to reimagine enterprise & manufacturing workflows using AI.

Very good leadership support, small (but great) team, huge mandate and uncertainties - and it’s quite exciting.

Myself.

Been a freelance dev for years, now beginning a "sabbatical" (love that word).

Planning to do a lot of learning, self-improvement, and projects. Tech-related and not. Preparing for the next volume (not chapter) of life. Refactoring, if you like, among other things.

I'm excited.

https://sewerreport.com I am a dev/sewer inspector, done over 20k inspections for real estate alone. I built the ultimate, AI report generator based on my voice to text notes. Reports, email notifications, stripe integration. Payments and invoices. Unlock reports when paid. Square appointments integrations. Pulls all appointments and fills outs new report fields for me. No copy pasting anything ever again. Very niche…

Dev/sewer inspector is an interesting combination. Were you a developer first, and took up sewer inspection as a side job, or vice-versa ?

I'm making a kind of "Tinder for hiking trails". I live in Switzerland and am (like many people here) an avid hiker. There are a lot of great hiking websites but they all suffer from the same problem: They are ultimately just a list of hiking routes that you need to plan around. Because I do a hike almost every week, the extra planning has become an overhead that takes time out of my life: how far away is it, what tr…

This sounds great! My partner and I also spend a lot of time just scrolling around the Swiss hiking maps looking for potential routes. I had an idea for better filters (e.g. roundtrip hikes with >1000m elevation <2h by transit) and got as far as displaying hiking and transit data. Are you looking for testers? :)
