I'm working on pure.md[1], which lets your scripts, APIs, apps, agents, etc reliably access web content in markdown format. Simply prefix any URL with `pure.md/` and you get the unblocked markdown content of that webpage. It avoids bot detection and renders JavaScript-heavy websites, and can convert HTML, PDFs, images, and more into pure markdown. pure.md acts as a global caching layer between LLMs and web content. I…

It seems to miss URLs?

At: https://willadams.gitbook.io/design-into-3d/2d-drawing the links for:

https://mathcs.clarku.edu/~djoyce/java/elements/elements.htm...

https://mathcs.clarku.edu/~djoyce/java/elements/bookI/bookI....

https://mathcs.clarku.edu/~djoyce/java/elements/bookI/defI1....

are rendered as:

_Elements_ _:_ _Book I_ _:_ _Definition 1_

Maybe detect when a page is on gitbook or some other site where there is .md source on github or some other site and grab the original instead?

I'm working on designing a survey to help assess the degree to which enterprise tech buyers believe that they need to invest in improving data access, metadata management, architecture, storage, and integration as a necessary prerequisite to getting value out of AI investments. The backstory is that AI investments are proceeding, but companies seem to be struggling to get things into production, so the ROIs are begin…

It would be interesting to ask if EU companies are now looking for EU based solutions and shunning the US.

I'm thinking a lot about RSS/Atom, how great email is to read content, and the intersection of these ideas with the W3C WebMonetization spec. I think there's an opportunity to do novel things in this space, and LLMs might help in terms of providing summaries that people actually want. I'm building this for me, but I think it could be useful for other people, too.

Make a combination of RSS/Atom and the MCP protocol.

I'm working on AssetRoom, a free service to email you noise-free, easy to digest summaries of SEC filings from companies you're interested in. I often read about interesting public companies (from an investment perspective or otherwise), but fail to then keep up with them over time (sometimes reading many months/years later how successful they were - or not!). I built this to make an easy way for me to follow updates…

Signed up but not getting the verification email. Interested in the execution though.

I'm working on Dronygon, a map of cool drone flying locations.

Well I just put it live couple of days ago, now I'm just starting to post my own locations.

Had this idea when I wanted to take my drone out but didn't know where to go. And as a plus I really wanted to learn more about working with maps and geolocation for an upcoming project, so this was a perfect way to learn it and make something useful.
