I am working on Stylify. It is an AI based word formatter. It uses local ai models so that nothing leaves the computer. Most of the time is spent on formatting word-docs rather than writing the actual content, that's the reason I thought of building one. You can see it here in action https://stylifyword.com

I'm working on hunting down as much publicly accessible stained glass and mapping it. No exciting libraries or frameworks, but if you know of some great stained glass in your area, please document it! https://stainedglassatlas.com/

Love this. Years ago I had an idea for something _like_ this but for public murals/street art.

https://actions.work/listening-post - Listening Post is my macOS multi-scrobbler that works with Last.fm, ListenBrainz, Rocksky, Maloja, Shortcuts, social posting, etc., independent from Spotify or Apple Music. The app can also scrobble shazams (music recognitions) from iPhone and Apple Watch, without the need for an extra app.

Basically, I built the scrobbler of my dreams. I love it to bits! I'm a professional software engineer for ~27 years by now but I only now got around to building that thing. :)

I am continuing to work on Akariq [0] which provides travel eSIM data plans to 180+ countries around the world. I have had many paying customers over the past few months from Vietnam to Mexico to Europe and US of course. The three benefits of using Akariq are 1) No app, no user account which leads to literally 3-click install 2) Full transparency - you know what you are getting. A lot of other eSIM providers hide det…

How do you judge "the best" network? It normally depends on if you're in the city, countryside, island etc.

I travel fulltime and constantly buy new esims. Normally I just go on esimdb and buy the cheapest one. Then when I get to the location I'm staying at, I chat with folks to figure which network works best there. Normally it's cheaper to get a local plan as well.

You are quite a bit more expensive than the no-name folks I buy from.
