My own functional programming language. I'd done an imperative before but wanted one that has pattern matching, would let me do currying _and_ uses a bidirectional type-checker. All of this is currently implemented but not for all type constructs. It's name? Marmelade. Because Lady Marmelade and thus files with a lady suffix. m.lady.

Every now and then I add new touches to my hobby project at

https://nobsutils.com

It's a collection of small tools that run locally in your browser which, over time, I've built to serve my needs mostly. This has been living on my home NAS for a while. When I created the flashcards maker to help my 10 years old son prepare for a Spelling bee word quiz, it became popular with his schoolmates and I got some new drive to make it public.

I'm working on a correlation matrix with Svelte 5.

It includes rolling correlation charts, hierarchical clustering, and a terminal-style interface with high data density. It uses a 2D windowing/virtualization approach to render only visible matrix cells to the DOM. It's early WIP. The landing page is particularly bad.

PortfolioSlice. It’s a website where you can share your investment portfolio and its asset allocations. Then other people can just follow that with an easy to use cash divider.

https://portfolioslice.com/

It currently just has my portfolio that I use (Innovation and Global Growth) and some other generated ones. I wanted to try out SvelteKit and Svelte to replace my Google Sheet into something cooler. Not sure if I want to monetize this.

I've been learning Russian off and on for 15 years and was having trouble keeping up in the group chat texting my Russian friends

Most language apps make you select whole words rather than type, so I made an app that focuses on text first

It's helped me find the letters on the keyboard much quicker and rattle off common responses

Check it out! Would love your feedback

I have way too many things that catch my interest, but right now I am designing a paper and aluminum foil based linear electric motor. The idea is to create an electromechanical display that pushes a colored piece of paper into place to create a pixel, and see if this can be done cheaply and at scale. The electronics that I have selected look very promising, all I have to do is test the idea and see if this is worth pursuing further.

'tis a broad umbrella, but my co-founder and I are deep into transforming excess green energy (wasted because of curtailment) into ML / AI compute.

Focusing on training and fine-tuning, because of lower bandwith requirements.

We're collaborating with a few AI researchers through offering a sponsorhips program for the right people. If you know anyone, send them our way.

PS. If anyone has experience with Marimo, give me shout!

Trappist, a space exploration / city builder game in the Trappist-1 solar system. It is inspired by the classic Alien Legacy, with more modern gameplay in the style of the Anno-series.

I've been working to time an update and demo release with the Steam City Builder & Colony Sim fest: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2769820/Trappist/
