I'm just starting the design of a cmsis-svd-lsp Language Server application that can be used with any LSP capable editor to provide legal CMSIS names for their STM32xx MCU registers and bitfields during coding, simply by using the SVD file for their model. MIT licensed.

It will include the correct name, absolute address, bit offset and width plus a bitfield description.

This is needed for bare metal coding (in any language) without using the massive monolithic systems from the manufacturers.

I've previously made a Mecrisp-Stellaris Forth Language Server as a test run and it works fine with helix editor.

claude-brief: a live session summariser for Claude Code. It docks a pane right next to your terminal (iTerm2, tmux, kitty, ghostty, Apple Terminal) showing a running summary of what the current session is doing.

I built it after losing track of too many Claude Code terminals running at once - I'd tab between them and have no idea where each one was. Now I can glance at the dock and re-orient in a second.

Its a Claude code plugin - the README has install instruction https://github.com/tigerquoll/claude-brief

Feedback welcome.

Have been working on three micro-saas, all built in Elixir/Phoenix:

https://feedbun.com - a browser extension that decodes food labels and recipes on any website for healthy eating, with science-backed research summaries and recommendations.

https://rizz.farm - a lead gen tool for Reddit that focuses on helping instead of selling, to build long-lasting organic traffic.

https://persumi.com - a blogging platform that turns articles into audio, and to showcase your different interests or "personas".

Took a long break earlier this year to recharge, but now I'm back at it again, mostly working on Feedbun, about to launch it as an early alpha. :)

I'm building a P2P distributed computing mesh that runs in the browser. It's a TS library that provides a few things: - A WS + WebRTC mesh - A request/response protocol incentivizing the closest or most efficient peers to respond to requests - A WASM environment ensuring deterministic execution and supporting contract composition - Collateralization around responses, ensuring invalid responses have amortized negative…

> The idea came out of me wondering a few years ago why a multiplayer game couldn't simply be run on the player's machines without a central server.

That's how they used to work! Some used peer-to-peer networking, others had one of the players host. Some still let you do this but don't always have networking that "just works".

Still plugging away at Breaka Club, where kids take photos of their hand drawn art and build games using it. Starts out as no-code, photograph an AprilTag and it imbues the image with functionality. https://breaka.club/blog/why-were-building-clubs-for-kids We also teach kids visual scripting in Overcooked 2!, allowing kids to code their way through the levels of an existing much beloved game: https://youtu.be/ITWSL5l…

super nice!

I've built tons of things but next to zero adoption. Its SUPER easy to build now, near impossible to get people to use your things. As long as you are getting value out of them... that is all that matters. At least that is what I tell myself.
