experimenting with a new approach i thought of for estimating clock offsets (One Way Delay problem)

which was kinda a side track i let myself get pulled into when i was working on experimenting with building a mmo server

also a styling framework to try and leverage system 1 and system 2 brain function to reduce cognitive load while coding

Uruky [1] is an ad-free, private, and personal search engine, based in Europe, launched earlier this year (a simpler Kagi alternative).

We just started experimenting with a 2h trial via PoW local captcha this week, so you don't have to pay to try it out anymore (or send us an email), but if we start detecting abuse, it'll be removed (that's why we haven't announced it, yet).

If you're a website owner and would like to offer custom search, check out Uruky Site Search [2].

I'm working on an app that searches land for the county and scores based on different filters and gives out a report I've been looking at investing in land and being a developer I can program it and use it to look for land more effectively. It is landradar.land and it's in the initial phase now.

I'm working on porting my data exploration tool ColumnLens [1] to Windows and Linux. Coming from Mac it's harder than I assumed.

Started working on WrenLore, a Knowledge Base / Knowledge Management system built for both humans and AI agents.

Humans review, use the nice clean UI, AI work on writing the documentaion, keeping it up to date, summarize, syntetize, have the ability to chat with the specific space or part of the documentation as per the user boundaries.

First release was mostly clean up from Docmost artefacts, added provider config for AI models, added AskAI and AI Help features, and basics from the security point of view that are a must: an MFA available for username/password users, and SAML/SSO EntraID authorization/authentication (needed it first, more options to follow).

I enjoy working on toy-languages, and I've spent the past ten days or so writing a compiler to convert a simple language into (static) linux/amd64 assembly.

It supports strings, integers, and floating-point operations, and is complete enough that I could implement a brainfuck interpreter in it. But otherwise it is very definitely a toy.

It was fun writing out the assembly, e.g. writing the "standard library" functions to implement "getenv", etc.

VERDURE is a creative sandbox where you grow and shape plants through trimming and pruning. You can also unlock a 'recipe panel' to further customize them and build a entire collection of your creations. I like to try and recreate real plant designs with it. It is a bit unusual.

I'm continuing to work on ChatKeeper, a desktop app (Windows, macOS, Linux) that turns official ChatGPT exports into local Markdown and image files for use in Obsidian or other local PKM tools.

One thing that sets it apart from the (many!) ChatGPT-export browser plugins out there is that it can update your local archive in-place with later exports, even if you've moved or renamed any of those files locally, or added your own front matter to the markdown.

It's not a use case for everyone, but it's very useful for people who want their ChatGPT conversations in the same place as their notes, research, project history, and other local work.

A new kind of workload scheduler. I think it's silly that it's so normal datacenters to sit at ~20% utilization all the time.

With the right scheduler I think we could get that above 90%. Would love to hear any feedback / thoughts. Here's a blog explaining: https://docs.burla.dev/blog/dynamic-hardware

Making a crazy program that masks secret messages inside a corpus of HN comments.

Here are some examples.

I've been building out https://www.accessmrf.com/sources to index Transparency in Coverage files across insurers in a single place. Most recently I have been looking at the overlap across files using Min Hashing and found that there is a lot of duplicate data. Currently, I'm figuring out a way of making this dataset more digestible by identifying and eliminating the 90+% duplicate and ghost data.

I recently made halftrace - point it at your OpenAI/Anthropic/LangSmith agent logs and it tells you what shape your agent's rule-following has, why, and what to try. I built it to try and find smooth decay over trajectory length on Claude.

An app which continuously tracks your maintenance calories overtime

Takes 3-4 weeks for calibration.

It will provide you macros and calories you need to eat depending on the goal you set.

It's for my natural bodybuilding community, completely free.

Mostly learning and experimenting with different tools and ideas nothing too big yet.
