I've been building a chrome extension called Skipper [1] that helps people to organize their browser tabs with AI. For my whole career so far I've been applying ML (as they called it back then) / AI to various domains like drug discovery and cybersecurity. Both were fun but, man, it feels really different to build a consumer app. It's just very exciting to be able to develop something, push it, and get compliments/co…

Slowed down my PC lol, what are you guys doing in the background post-install? Granted, I had 1400 Tabs open (most of them suspended using marvelous suspender) but the CPU usage shot up to a consistent 100% until I uninstalled Skipper

Hey thanks for the feedback! Would you be happy to connect so that I can diagnose and help with the resource usage? Let me be honest, I'm curious of why it'd take so much CPU usage as well, and I'd like to find out and fix it for other users to.

If yes shoot me an email at kyle AT skipper.co

I'm working on a unique discovery app / recommender for books, tv, movies, video games, songs, youtube channels, newsletters and podcasts - and more categories soon! Since my last update here, I've added more detailed personalized descriptions of recommendations (hit Describe to request), including a rating out of 10 for how well the item meets your preferences. I've also added the ability to replace individual recom…

Hi Aaron,

I really like your idea and the clean, simple execution! I'm looking forward to using it more in the coming days.

I'm curious about the technical side of things—how did you build the app, and how do its inner workings function? Is it open source? If possible, could you share more technical details?

Really cool, thanks!

I have worked on social dynamics on social media particularly how why certain kinds of content/people become viral. To that end, I have been working on a large-scale simulation that simulates twitter. It pulls data from a random distribution, generates users with specific interest vectors. its modelled as a Agent based modelling with the users as agents, posting every timestep, reading content posted by others, recommended to them by a recommendation engine. all of this this then generates data for research.

Got tired of existing unit test automation tools that give out fake test cases. So tried to solve that with https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Keploy.k...

One click to generate test cases that don't fail (yet)

I am working on Shepherd.com and trying to reimagine book discovery online. I just launched the "best books of 2024," where I ask readers and authors to share their 3 favorite reads of the year and make it fun to navigate them by different factors (genres, topics, book club reads, audiobooks, and more coming) -> https://shepherd.com/bboy/2024 Slowly getting more in place as we grow :)

I'm working on my first SaaS, an all-in-one workspace for teams. It’s like Notion + Asana + Slack, unified into one tool.

All of my friends wanted my mom's recipes when they came round for my birthday. Now I realised she doesn't store anything - it's all in her head!

Then the same thing happened with my girlfriend although she writes hers down in a diary (how old school).

And then I noticed so many food influencers posting their recipes in the descriptions of their tiktok/insta posts.

And then as I started searching for recipes online, I found the websites full of ads and popups and terrible UI. I only cared about the ingredients and the method. So I created this, and have been having a lot of fun with it.

I hope to see up and coming food influencers using this as a platform directly to link with their social media posts, engaging and competing with an already interested audience.
