I am working on a web app that doctors/NPs/PAs can use to automatically rewrite complicated and verbose medical progress notes. The amount of time medical providers spend on documentation is ballooning, and only a small portion that time is actually spent doing medical decision making. The rest of the time is spent incorporating (ie copy editing) data as it comes in from imaging/bloodwork/consultant advice. The goal is for the app to be:

entirely self service, without needing EHR integrations

able to persist and reuse the user's writing style, without actually saving any of the notes

HIPAA compliant (obviously)

I’ve built two AI agents that curate personalized news:

- Market Pulse Agent — analyzes the last 24 hours of global and US market news to generate actionable stock-trading signals.

- TechPulse Agent — tracks emerging tech trends and surfaces interesting GitHub projects and engineering updates.

Both are live on my site: https://kryptunes.com

Still iterating, but the goal is to build a fully automated, AI-powered research companion for traders and tech enthusiasts.

I finally started modding a total war game (Warhammer 3). I played the series since the very first title, Shogun and I always wanted to improve the control over units and add my custom AI to not micromanage everything, but assumed it would be too time consuming and distracting from my main work. And well, it likely would have been.

But thanks to LLMs, I finally decided to give it a go and got something basic working in a short time, hurrey for AI assisted coding!

Feels empowering to be honest. No idea if I will really implement the main ideas, that I have since a long time, but I know that I can now if I want to.

A TUI to monitor your OpenAI and Anthropic usage inside your terminal.

https://github.com/htin1/toktop

I use codex and claude code daily, also build apps with openai and anthropic api keys, so i always go to openai dashboard and anthropic dashboard to track my usage. Since I spend most of times inside cursor or terminal, I wanted to quickly check my usage without leaving my terminal/ide, so i built this!

It's open-source, MIT, and built with ratatui (awesome name).

I built this while working on a data center design and management tool. Interactive react components for rack and network design. https://react-networks-lib.rackout.net/fibre

I've opened this demo, on a flagship phone from 5 years ago. And this phone almost spewed its guts out trying to render it.

Why is react still considered a viable tech?

Just got a 3d printer (Bambu a1 mini) and my girlfriend brought home a whole bag of plant cuttings. Thought I would give a modular plant pot (i.e with elements that allow for expanding the pot) in fusion 360 a shot.

On and off working on the Navigation API for Node, Bun, Deno, & as a browser polyfill.

Has 90% test coverage, makes use of web platform tests to verify compatibility, and is in use by some larger companies already with the Navigation API soon to become a baseline in evergreen browsers.

The Navigation API effectively is async state navigations. The likes of React has recently added Navigation API support to make use of the browser reload indicator.

Along with working on a startup day to day :)

Anti-spam email/messaging protocol that is simple, cheap to implement, directly compatible with email/messengers, low false negative rate compared to current spam filtering, free for senders, and does not require the sender to pay to send a message. For people who receive too much marketing spam, survey spam, low-effort cold emails, and want to be able to easily filter spam successfully because you do not want to waste time on them.

Future-proofed and will work on AI spam in the future too, unlike current spam filtering methods.
