I'm prototyping a Depth Anything[1] -assisted segment annotation tool, with an eye toward plant detection in non-agriculture environments (where the backdrop is an endless sea of green complexity). Even if the task I have in mind doesn't pan out, I think this tool could be useful to people for other difficult segmentation tasks.

Currently working on HN Alerts — a simple free site I made to alert me (via email) to trending stories on Hacker News. It sends me an email once a story hits a certain number of upvotes per minute, so it's useful for keeping track of breaking news. https://hnalerts.com

I have a similar domain - https://hackernewsalerts.com - but it's for tracking replies to comments and posts you've made. It's on maintenance mode at the moment, couldn't gather as much interest as I'd hoped. Have open sourced it.

I'm teaching myself category theory, I'll kick back off a local trail, keep notes on the birds I see and read and do the problems in my notebooks. I've got Basic Category Theory by Leinster, and How to Read and Do Proofs by Solow as my references, notebook, pen and a pair of Nikon binoculars.

Taking a break from my agentic AI framework for prototypes and makers arkaine(1) and made two fun useful apps for myself

1. Eli5 equations(2) uses an LLM to convert a given picture of an equation to latex and, if given additional context, breaks down the equation parts to explain it. Gemini for the model.

2. reflecta - a journal prompting app with deepseek to help reword and target the prompts towards you better.
