I have been working on a intentional farm to table co-housing network spanning from S.Flo, ATL ,to Cape Breton in NS CAN. It's been a humbling experience of meeting, learning and living with great interesting people to say the least. Each property is different but all are tailored to reduce hospitals readmission, provide various high risk groups housing opportunities, and supply fun lasting agrarian experiences. Each member has access, via provided transportation to the other properties and it's different resources. The struggle has been being a father of six, husband and career man alongside this project. I resign from my career almost 3yrs ago thats helped and hurt as struggling to secure income at times, I have learned and relearned alot! I can say I'm still moving forward and excited at what's ahead! https://www.funnyfencefarm.com/

I’m currently developing Oliphaunt, a native macOS client for Mastodon, designed to offer a clean, responsive and fully native experience that feels at home on the platform. You can find more details, including screenshots and a project overview, here: https://github.com/anosidium/Oliphaunt-Feedback-And-Support. A new TestFlight build will be available soon, with plans for an eventual App Store release.

I’m also working on the next version of HacKit, a macOS Hacker News reader focused on simplicity, performance and adherence to macOS design language. It’s already available on the App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id1549557075 and further information can be found here: https://github.com/anosidium/HacKit-Feedback-And-Support.

I’d be delighted to hear any feedback, suggestions, or ideas — or simply to connect with others working on Apple platform development.

I have been working on http://phrasing.app - a language learning & acquisition tool for polyglots. I’ve been using it to study ~12 languages (5 on maintaince, 2 seriously studying, 5 casually “studying”) and it’s starting to feel really good. If anyone is learning/maintaining several languages, please reach out! I’m looking for beta testers in as many languages as possible (it supports 120+). In what I believe is sti…

I tried to use it, but I don't know how to set a language preference.

I'm just getting popups asking me to set up my language, but... where?? It needs a most intuitive UI. :3

I am working on an [ONLY EV AI SALES AGENT]. I have a dealer feed. I am focused on Electric cars. Basically you ask the AI agent about your electric car needs and using our inventory feed from our dealer partner ( pilot) we match user to car. Video demo here. Trying to ship ASAP. I will update my site soon. I do sales and my partner is doing the build.

Aside from my main project, ʻŌlelo Honua, I'm working on an air/hydro foil simulation (just for fun). Currently using rudimentary physics and in it's early stages. Would like to add more particles and incorporate Navier-Stokes equations.

ok been quietly working on this thing for the past 5 months, and the reports finally hit the quality bar i was aiming for.

long story short: i built a system that scrapes a company’s site, profiles, press, and anything else it can find online, then runs it through a multi-model prompt engine i wrote from scratch (multiple LLMs chained together with custom logic). the workflow is split into three parts: crawl, process, synthesize.

output comes in markdown. all signal, no bs. useful for GTM, growth, competitor analysis, product gaps, strategic blindspots, that kind of thing.

i’ve been stress testing it on real companies. just pushed 2 sample reports to GitHub if you wanna peek:

- Grab (SEA unicorn) - LemmyHomes (early-stage Malaysian proptech)

https://github.com/lightyoruichi/numen-output

not selling it as a product (yet). backend still in dev. just doing reports manually for now while testing edge cases/validating if anyone wants this at all lol.

note: it’s not fully automated. i use the system to generate raw analysis, then apply human input to reframe, expand, or clean up weak insights. think of it like pairing with an AI researcher who works fast but lacks nuance/context, you still need a strategist to shape the output. there's tons more feature but at the core this is it.

happy to run one or two more this week if anyone wants a teardown. not free though (token cost’s brutal lol). DM if interested.
