I finally relaunched my product Onset, a release note management platform.

https://www.onset.io

It took me a year to rebuild it from ground up but finally finished it.

Expanding a speech-to-text (dictation) gnome extension I wrote to work with gnome 49.

My latest is Marvelogs (https://www.marvelogs.com) - always wanted to build a price tracker (or tracking any values on a regular basis) - it's nearly there.

How does this work? Good old scraping/parsing html or you feed the html to a LLM and let it parse?

Nice idea btw!

pyromaker 11/13/2025||

Something like that - parsing and scraping have come a long way right? Plenty of different ways that are available. The adoption of various LLMs have given more options definitely. We use both traditional and LLM methods.

Selfhosting via yunohost, especially loving Immich and Actual Budget. I'm not in IT but I use Linux and it has been easy enough for me to set up.

Also making personalised Christmas t-shirts in Inkscape. I love what you can do with open source tools!

systemg - "Systemd, for busy people".

https://sysg.dev

I'm personally tired of getting stuck in config/deployment hell every time I want to deploy a long-lived web service. Sure I eventually learned how to use systemd, but systemd has SO many things baked into that I simply don't need. systemg is a lightweight process supervisor that features everything you'd typically want when running/managing production web services in the wild.

Would love feedback.

I love that it's Rust based, but being busy is exactly why I like Systemd, it Just Works, as long as you don't need to customize the OS at all.

ra0x3 11/10/2025||

True, but I think the point I'm trying to make is that when it comes to deploying (what are more often than not) web services, getting to the point with systemd where it "just works" requires more pain than I'd like - especially with regard to production deployments (reading logs, checking service status, wondering why my env vars aren't being read, etc).

If at the time when I was cutting my teeth on systemd, I had access to something more lightweight and "do one thing well", I think I would've gotten a lot more sleep :)

Been building https://nohuman.chat lately. Most ecommerce chatbots are pretty terrible. Figured I'd try to make one that doesn't suck.

I built https://brickwallacademy.com/ to practise sql challenges as part of a sql course I was conducting for some students.

Streaming video is still hard to do for a developer today and we are solving that with scalable and cheap infra for streaming.

I’m working on Radiant Computer.

https://radiant.computer

It’s a new kind of computer that attempts to part from the unix heritage and offer something really accessible and modern.
