I’m working on a product for a client, and the amount of pressure I’ve been under to “make it AI” has been tremendous.

“Could we add a chat bot?”

“What about AI generated images?”

This is for an extremely regulated industry, where content needs to be approved by dozens of people prior to being used.

(I realise without the context of the actual product this sounds less impressive than it does to me)

I'm working on a project to find the best places for you to live (in the US).

Right now, people are deciding where to move based on gut feels, spreadsheets, and wikipedia pages. There needs to be a better way to enter personal preferences and come out with enough data that ensures the place you're in is the best fit for you.

Enter your preferences, narrow down locations, and compare them:

Oh yes, no interest in AI whatsoever. I've been working on Habitat for the last 4 months. It's a self-hosted social platform for local communities. The plan is for it to be federated, but that's a while off yet.

- A build update and plan: https://carlnewton.github.io/posts/building-habitat/

Free version of duolingo's match madness using top 1000 most frequently used Spanish words. I actually like the competing with others gamification, not so much streaks etc. Made it mostly for myself, as a way to procrastinate instead of actually learning spanish

Hey guys! We're engineers/designers from France, and we've built the Ultimate DIY Battery that you can repair and refill!

It works with 90% of the bikes/motor brands on the market, so I assumed that some people here might be interested, if they got a non-functional batteries but they still want to use their e-bike?

We believe that everybody should have control about stuff they own, and we should fight against planned obsolescence!

Here are a few videos about our founder on the battery itself, why we built it, and how to assemble it:

- Presentation of the pack: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLoCihE0eIA

- Presentation of the fireproof and waterproof casing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDJpt7RDbRM

Here are the juicy bits: https://docs.gouach.com

We'd love some feedback from the e-bike DIY builder community

Oh, and it's launching as a Kickstarter in September and there is an offer for early-backers here https://get.gouach.com/1 for a 25% discount on the battery!

This looks so great! Do you have any plans to expand to other languages? I'd love something like this for Swedish.
