I'm catching up on movie watching. For the last 10+ years, I've been collecting a list of any movie mentioned on reddit or HN as being good or excellent. I also will add the Netflix top 100 DVDs each month (yes, I'm still a DVD Netflix subscriber!). I'll also add all of the academy award nominated movies (although most of those already show up in the Netflix 100). That list has grown to about 650 movies now (fun fact…

I've been using Dropmark (https://www.dropmark.com/) for collecting and sharing movie titles.

Meta: This thread is fun to read, it's cool to skim through such a large variety of ideas and projects. I wouldn't mind seeing it as a monthly thing like the "Who is hiring?" posts. There'd probably be some overlap with Show HN, but I personally wouldn't mind if it's just once a month.

I'm making all these remote meetings suck less with a real-time collaborative idea board.

If the content is not good on a long-form article, you'll find out way too late. With this tool I'm developing: Layer 1 is the shortest version of your essay, the 1 min read — like a tweet. The idea boiled down to the shortest v…

FWIW, this is how news articles are classically structured. They are initially high-level, then dive more and more into detail as the article goes on.

AGI research. Just now re-reading Minsky's Society of Mind, and reading Goertzel's Engineering General Intelligence - Volume 1, and trying to integrate a lot of their ideas with stuff I've been doodling on for some time.

In addition to that, I'm working on some BPM stuff, looking into ways to more tightly integrate AI/ML services with automated BPM processes.

I also need to build a couple of new bookcases for my living room, so I can take all of these books that are stacked on every flat surface in sight, and put them away properly.
