I am participating in a competition of a wannabe IT guys when some mentor is searching for one such a student. I have summed exactly his proposal which he has published in Russian and all my work and I have ended up with a 19-page whitepaper 6 pages of which describes my original tradebot idea, in English of course. If you know how real tradebots work feel free to help me to enrich my understanding. Current status of…

That's kind of interesting. Did you get any sponsors?

Cef-tex demonstrates bringing a web-browser supporting spatial audio into an older version Godot engine.

https://github.com/meltyness/cef-tex

The build system is a VS file with god-knows-what hardcoded, doesn't properly reference CEF or Godot, and is therefore locked to Windows platform only (though Godot can theoretically run everywhere), and is probably full of a bunch of other footguns that I haven't even thought of. Got 5 stars on GitHub just from tag discovery, and the wishful thinking of some Godot-ers that I'll ever have time to un-suck it. It's also got R-rated comments, a video demonstration, and a short written log of the weird hurdles I had to surmount.

Two personal projects I'd like to get fully-baked eventually:

https://emdash.ai

My attempt to get more out of all my ebook highlights using on-device AI.

https://github.com/dmotz/trystero

My attempt at making it as easy as possible to add p2p to a web app (no server required). A "jQuery for WebRTC" of sorts.

I quit my job at the bank after a bad experience. With no source of income I started to develop this game. After 3 days in, I thought to myself "who am I kidding? I won't be able to sell this and make money" so I went job hunting and found the job I work today (3 years in).

Although it looks like it only have one level, it doesn't. I wrote a level generator for it.

I did spend a lot of time working on things that don't matter, for instance screen orientation. My goal was to have one game that i could sell in any platform, mobile or desktop.

Maybe I'll finish it someday.

Abound: https://abound.art It's a generative art platform/marketplace. You write an algo that generates art according to some number of parameters, upload it as a Docker image, and let other people tinker and generate things they like the aesthetics of. Basically remote code execution as a service, but I spent a lot of time on the sandboxing side of things and feel pretty good about it. The infra is tuned for "saving…

I wanted to build something very similar a while back. Spotify (or Instagram) for generative art. I guess https://www.dwitter.net is kind of like that as well. But specifically, I wanted to build some sort of revenue sharing for the artists, similar to Spotify's model.
