I'm working on nothing of importance (well actually it's a notable product from Big Tech). I'm looking to start something new but want to stay in Berlin and want to work on core technology or critical government/public/financial systems. I can either help fund this work and help at an arms length or join up.

An app for helping groups of friends decide on restaurants, movies, etc using ranked choice voting and a Tinder esque swipe interaction for creating rankings.

Been dabbling in game dev and have been having a good time with a little sailing game that I think could be a cozy “A Short Hike” esque , but where you have to grock how (simplified) sailing works.

Myself. I recorded and livestreamed about 1000 hours of my life last year. Think Google Photos but filling in the gaps. I use AI to generate daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly and yearly summaries.

I am further improving my already very usable SVG editor Hyvector (https://www.hyvector.com)

With AI eating graphic designers lunch, I started to pivot and will add features for vectorizing and editing of AI generated images. I think this can become a really exciting product.

I spend most of my time developing Slurm-web, an open source web interface for Slurm, the workload manager for HPC & AI clusters.

It's fun, with good mix of interesting technologies and it seems to solve a real problem for many users in HPC community!

I’ve been thinking lots about the YouTube algorithm, how it’s based on engagement, not educational value, and how it’s such a huge missed opportunity for our kids.

So I’ve been building my own YouTube app, for my own kids. Better blocking of keywords (no more 1,000 MrBeast video recommendations). Better educational themes.

Email me if you’re interested in testing.

I've been working on https://www.styleadvice.ai, a personal styling tool that gives users tailored advice based on features like face shape, eye shape, skin conditions and more. The idea is to make personalized styling a more accessible and fun.

I'm working on my web framework Mayu. Haven't had much time lately but I found some time to make a few improvements.

I'm working on Digest (usedigest.com) which curates content from nearly any source into your own personalized email newsletter. It also has a newsletter reader built into it as well so all of your newsletters get funneled into Digest, instead of your email inbox.

Large scale classifications of text using LLM
sandinmyjoints 3/30/2025||
What kinds of text?
blindriver 3/31/2025||
Whatever text I can get. But I’m starting with project Gutenberg

...and why use LLMs specifically?

In many cases, other methods run faster/scale better/use less energy.

blindriver 3/31/2025||
Because LLMs are one million times easier to use and they give very good results.
