#22I'm working on a multiplayer RPG https://grimrain.com - calling it an MMO is quite bold, but the gameplay fits that genre. The game server is designed to be self-hostable too, so it's like Valheim meets OSRS

OrcaBot was my Jan+Feb attempt to defeat the lethal trifecta whilst offering all the bells and whistles of a claw like sandbox: https://orcabot.com/blog#breaking-the-lethal-trifecta
This month I've been working on the free desktop version which is available as of today but probably carries a few too many bugs to not be worth promoting just yet.

#27I've just finished this chrome extension recently: https://ypuf.com/
It helps me to automatically save a tab that's not been used in a while so it auto-closes it but saves it as well as having the ability to snooze a tab like how you'd do it in gmail.
Everything is locally stored with 100% privacy in mind.
And vim like navigation is natively done.

#28Still working on Study Engine and Nomnominees(more or less done for now).
StudyEngine is a webapp I'm using while doing my masters in comp sci. I upload lecture notes, textbooks, papers, etc. It then extracts topics and tracks my mastery of them over time. It uses an LLM to generate questions and flash cards. It loops in some newer learning science ideas. It tests recognition first(multiple choice), and then once a level of mastery is matched, it switches to recall. Working on adding RAG to it, so I can surface where in the source material something can be reviewed when going over quiz results. Currently just for me an some friends. If can get a good eval set up, I might work on optimizing cost and seeing if it could be opened up.
NomNominees is simple webapp that tracks James Beard, Great American Beer Festival, Festival of Barrel Aged Beers, and other awards. I use it when I'm traveling to find places to check out. Even just a cluster on a map shows me neighborhoods I might want to check out.

#29https://buildthreads.com/ Aggregator for new posts in build threads from 277 old-school DIY forums. Build threads of people building cars, 4x4s, motorcycles, boats, airplanes, hot rods, musical instruments, etc.
Ohh this is the type of stuff that interests me although I am not a car fan but I like what you are doing with the aggregation/old-school DIY forums.
Good luck with your build and perhaps I might get interested in future too as I did once have a thought that having a custom car to me would reflect more cool-ness than an expensive one. I am really interested by small cars, perhaps retro. I imagine my favourite car to be somewhat like the car that Ryan gosling drives in La La Land.
but a cool project nonetheless, certainly thinking about it inspires a bit of car enthusiasm within me even though I am not that much of a car fan so much right now so a really cool project if it can help more people feel this spirit. good luck :-D
I have a question but how does building new (retro-inspired?) cars go about in terms of pricing. I feel like they might be too costly to get custom-built and that If I really ever in my life go about doing this, I would prefer DIY but I still imagine that it might be too expensive or hard to make a car. Are there any go-to cars which are easy/recommended within this space and how does it compare off economically and what are the technical expertise that you require with this type of stuff?
Once again, I wish ya good luck in the project and would love to hear your answers for some of the questions I have!

#30I've been climbing for a decade, but over the past 3 years I've put on a bunch of weight due to work and certain life events. But I want to change that. I know what motivates me: seeing progress. The feedback loop of "do X, see Y gain" is what keeps me going. So I started building an integrated dashboard that can aggregate data from multiple systems: - My digital scale - Apple Watch (sleep + running performance) - Be…
I've been working on a similar concept (aggregate health data from multiple sources) but on a wider scale:
1) annual bloodwork as part of my annual preventive care;
2) InBody measurements, including grip strength;
3) quality of air in my region;
4) Apple Watch but mainly for steps, sleep data and resting heart rate;
5) allergy panel or minerals/vitamins screen plus something nutrition-related along those lines (TBD).
The idea is to see trends and try to apply AI for correlating, at the first glance, completely unrelated data layers. Example how I'm thinking about this one: there's somewhat clear correlation that I sleep better when I do above average steps per day. How is my sleep quality affected if, let's say, I did above avg steps with a bad air quality at that time? (i.e. wild fires / pollen season / etc.)
I've built a Go application to ingest those data sources and currently finishing my first import use case - Apple Watch data.
Would be happy to connect and chat about this.
