I just released my SAT Writing textbook: https://www.amazon.com/Matthews-Guide-Digital-SAT-Writing/dp...

It took me two and a half years to finish. Now I've got to market it.

Next version of my side project, which is a site to perform text to network transformations.

Change consists in refactoring the back and front end.

Former : nocodefunctions.com:

Current: next.nocodefunctions.com

Andurel - a rails-like framework in Go

https://github.com/mbvlabs/andurel

Probably only building for myself here but super fun to explore how that would look like.

This is good - I previously used Buffalo https://gobuffalo.io/ at my startup, but eventually decided to move off it. Go doesn't seem like the kind of language that could support a framework like rails (it's safety takes away from the flexibility).

Would love to see how this turns out though! Great work

Thanks!

Yeah I tried out Buffalo as well but felt like they ended up doing too much!

If you check it out, I'd love to hear what you think! It's not ready for a v1 yet, still very exploratory.

I have been working on Jigsaw Pic: https://jigsawpic.com

My 7 year old niece loves jigsaw puzzles, but a lot of the time I see her during family trips where taking puzzles along wouldn't be feasible. We usually have an iPad though. I plan to add more puzzle categories soon.

Great and simple tool. I like it. The only thing was that a lot of the pieces / cutouts were identical. Would suggest to add more shapes and variety.

Making my first ATE (automatic test equipment) and considering whether I should use diy linear power supply or buy dc-dc switching module.

I’m building Cozy Watch, a macOS app that brings GitHub notifications straight to your desktop.

It tracks pull requests, CI results, and mentions in real time — so you know when you’re needed without checking GitHub or digging through emails.

It has a menu bar for quick access and a clean desktop UI for more detail.

Some years ago, I co-founded a startup that would run workflows when email messages arrived, any email from any source was parsed and it would trigger "actions" that could include notifications - this sounds like a good use case for it! You don't need the service to expose an api to listen in, since most services end up sending email as last fallback.

Thank you for you feedback!

Do you still run that startup?

With Cozy Watch, I use the GitHub API, never thought about using emails as triggers.

I’ve actually got GitHub emails disabled, they can get pretty spammy.

Sadly no, the feedback loop with users lacked consistency and we never got around finding use cases. One of the visions for it was to help people clean up inboxes, because as you put it, some sources can get pretty spammy. I'll keep an eye out for Cozy Watch, I hope you are successful!

In progress: I’m writing a book about how the brain processes text in general - and news articles in particular.

I also created and maintain a Russian "newspeak" dictionary: https://github.com/alamzin/az/

A new spin on my slow baking location intelligence data union (https://wherelabs.info). This week I’m thinking about whether it makes sense to provide a location history ‘vault’, designed to let users expose their location history to LLM’s as context.

I’m building Culink — a platform for curated link collections.

Not random bookmarks, but organized and shareable collections you can actually discover. Think Pinterest for links.

Day 13: 27 collections live, and people are already creating their own — which is exciting to see!
