#494A videogame for a variant of poker with i cut you choose mechanisms, where there is some meta plot, and NPC in the game remember you and the way you play.
Inspiration from shuffle puck cafe and pc98 / japanese bar table card game.
Little project but fun :)

#496I'm working on an AI spreadsheet platform called Sourcetable (https://sourcetable.com).
Most people use it for analysis and ops work, + data science.
I find myself using Sourcetable to run our company: query the DB, analyze the user data, make projections, write copy, help with technical SEO (search the web, scrape data, check status codes, clean my sitemap, run vector space analysis etc.), talk to apps, financial modeling for our operating model + forecasting, etc.
The main idea I'm thinking about is LLM related: we're all having a social experience with machines (!) while building the machines (!!). I'm not sure my brain fully grasps that it's talking to silicon while I work.

#497My roommate and I are still working on Tornyol, our mosquito killing drone! It uses ultrasonic sonar to detect mosquitoes, and missile control theory to ram into mosquitoes and grind them in its propellers. Our target platform is a 40 grams tinywhoop so it’s safe to fly everywhere and makes almost no noise :). A Roomba for mosquitoes! The main plus compared to traditional systems is that a drone can cover an enormous…
Very interesting idea! I wonder if a political campaign one day will be to start a program that eradicates mosquitos via drone fleets, not just in the context of malaria protection but also in just nuisance reduction. There are similar programs in place in certain metro areas that already do mosquito control (using chemicals of varying toxicity), so it's not as wild of an idea as it probably sounds. My friend once ca…
There are bio solutions, e.g. my city puts mosquito-larva-killing bacteria in the river and the lakes.
It works okay, but they are unable target _all_ water surface. They use drones, they give out these bacteria to people so they put it in the rainwater tanks, etc.

#498I’m still slowly working on a location intelligence data union (https://wherelabs.info) - the idea is people install an app and agree in a very upfront way to have their location tracked over time.
The union monetises this by selling privacy preserving aggregates (think ‘where is everyone in London right now’, or ‘where did people commute from?’), and acts on behalf of union members to stop data brokers selling their location data.

Not our highest priority concern haha
I imagine once everything else is tuned with your product you could make a hot-swappable blade assembly that can be quickly swapped out and later cleaned. Like if the entire guard and blade assembly came off, that would be super convenient. Would add some weight and complexity but if it’s purpose-built it would probably be less stress on the Drone than constantly pulling props off.
Or you just use a tissue or don't clean it at all.
