Currently working on a site that allows you to use your data from run/bike apps to visualize your data on a map, make it look neat, and order a print. I have an early version of it hosted on https://ridemapper.henrygrant.dev and add features as I think of them/when I have time. https://github.com/henrygrant/ridemapper-svelte

I've been wanting an app that would let me see all my hikes on a single map. I'd imagine my use case is pretty obscure, but I walk a lot, and I'd like to walk literally every street and alley in my city.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Looks trippy, but the animations/colors need a bit of work. The Twitter video made my eyes hurt.

How in particular do you think colors should be improved?

I think the game needs more contrast. Make the blocks that change the stream a different color and not transparent maybe?

I’m working on ModelFusion, a TypeScript library for working with AI models (llm, image, etc.)

https://github.com/lgrammel/modelfusion

It is only getting limited traction so I’m wondering if I’m missing something fundamental with the approach that I’m taking.

Wasn't satisfied with zotero and mendeley for pdf reference management. Wanted something terminal based and simple, so I wrote a shell script that I eventually rewrote in python. Given a pdf, it reads it, tries to find the article doi and fetches metadata from crossref to rename the file and store metadata in the file itself. I Plan on integrating features like interactive tagging and tag browsing from the terminal.

Any help with code review or additional features are welcome :)

If you play "Highfleet" at all, can you poke around https://hfopt.jodavaho.io and see if you can get it to generate module lists that make sense?

It's an optimizer, just add what you know you want, set some cost / range / speed limits, and it will output the cheapest version of the ship that includes all required modules and has all requested stats.

Some overview posts: https://jodavaho.io/tags/highfleet.html

I'm writing "The Impostor's Guide To The Shell". My theory is that reading popular open-source codebases, and Googling stuff you don't understand until you grok it, is a great way to overcome impostor's syndrome. The goal is to take a reader from thinking "Maybe a 10x engineer could understand that library, but I never could..." to "Oh, that's all it does?".

The guide covers things like:

- shebangs

- exit codes

- parameter expansion

- file permissions

- how to look up docs via "man" and "help"

- And a lot more.

The codebase I'm starting with is a Ruby version manager (written in bash) called RBENV. I've published it onto a platform called HelpThisBook.com, a platform to help authors get feedback from early readers (co-created by Rob Fitzpatrick, author of "The Mom Test", "Write Useful Books", etc.). Instructions on how to leave feedback should be given when you open the link below.

I've been working on TurboScribe (https://turboscribe.ai/) for a few weeks and preparing to "officially" launch soon.

I think high-quality AI transcription should be a lot cheaper.

It's pretty simple: Unlimited transcription (powered by Whisper) for $10/month. Upload your audio/video files, get your transcripts (and export to many common formats).

There's a free tier of 4 transcripts (i.e. up to 2 hours) per day if you'd like to check it out.

TurboScribe is especially designed for individuals who need to transcribe larger volumes of audio/video (i.e. dozens or hundreds of hours, including at the highest Whisper large_v2 quality level) or just don't want to have to worry about getting billed by the hour, hitting some ridiculously low cap, etc.

I'm working on a Chrome extension that adds realtime presence (cursors, chat, gifs, sticky notes) to any website or page.

Each website/page (depending on your preferences) becomes an ephemeral channel where you can see and interact with others users browsing the internet. It's still in a WIP shape but very functional.

Hi! Someday, I feared Pocket [1] would disapear and I would suddenly lose all links I saved there. So I made pouch [2]. It let's you save links and, if possible, automatically saves the text, for a reading mode. I never showed it publicaly, so I'm the only user. Fell free to use it and I'm open to any feedback. Mind you I'm a backend dev, so in terms of design and overall frontend quality it is definitely lacking. [1…

This is a pretty cool idea to add a social element to everything. I don't think I'm necessarily in the target demo but still this looks really cool
