I am implementing a baremetal USB device stack in an embedded application and an having a really, really hard time. The device in question is a decoder for sportive chronometry and uses lots of DSP for detecting and measuring when vehicles pass through the finish line.

I hacked my old kindle and turned it into a eink dashboard for my daughter’s school! Now planning to enahace it a bit further and make it easy to customise. Here’s a a detailed write up of the process: https://samkhawase.com/blog/hacking-kindle/

Love these Kindle dashboards and thank you for the excellent write up. If you did anything notable with refresh rates and cron tab for battery life management (or if that’s simply unnecessary), that may be useful to note in the blog post. Given you’re monitoring frequent bus times, I suspect it may have come up.

I started an Application and API Gateway: https://github.com/jmaister/taronja-gateway

I am making it for myself, focused on less config as possible and making it secure by default.

Working on a web app builder that generates code via AI, much like hundreds of other tools out there. The differentiator is that the tool automatically sets up a Postgres DB (using Neon) for you. So, it's a lot easier to get started and it can handle large complex apps that require auth and database, but it can also build simple websites. The stack is next.js and code is easy to export and view. Primarily uses Claude…

This is awesome. My name is David and I work at Neon btw. Email me through david@ if you want to chat!

I’m working on LngBrdg, a Chrome extension that helps professionals write and translate emails in 100+ languages — right inside their browser.

Built it solo with no coding background after struggling with existing translation tools that couldn’t handle tone or clarity well. Now live on the Chrome Web Store: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/dhbmdjoebgmgcjedejb...

Would love feedback!

Working on Replyhub.co, AI that finds high-intent posts on Reddit and X where your product can naturally be introduced. It suggests replies, tracks leads, and helps turn conversations into conversions.
