My project are trying to respond to this question: "Where is your GitHub network building from?"? I called it GitHub Audience Atlas. It visualizes a GitHub user's network and shows them on a map by categories: followers, following, and ghosts (those who don't follow you back).

A browser agent that learns the API :) Things like Claude in the browser are super slow, mostly because they just rely on the UI. With MCP they're much better. By learning the API it's like having a perfect MCP for each web app, making it much faster.

If anyone is interested, here's a writeup how we've built it: https://pluno.ai/blog/how-we-accidentally-built-a-faster-bro...

If you are in a calorie surplus, your weight goes up. If you are in a calorie deficit, your weight goes down. MacroCodex uses that relationship to estimate your true maintenance calories over time: https://macrocodex.app/

This can be used to gain or lose weight. You simply need to eat above your maintenance calorie line to gain weight and below it to lose weight. No ads, no subscriptions, no payments, 16k users already.

Interesting. How long does it usually take before the maintenance estimate becomes accurate?

Interesting idea. Once the agent has learned a product, what usually breaks first when the product ships a major UI/backend update?

How much of GitHub's location field is actually usable? I'd imagine a lot of people put things like 'The Internet' or emojis.

I have been working on Babel Nexus https://babelnexus.com It is a proof of concept for a site that uses hexagonal galleries. I wanted to show that it was possible to use the layout in the story from The Library of Babel by Jorge Luis Borges to put other things in it like collections of books and media. It is partially about hexagonal architecture inside websites.
