I'm working on a WhatsApp AI bot for my group chats, specifically for my friends' soccer group chat where we organize our Wednesday matches. We have a bunch of "problems" that I think are ripe for bot automation. WhatsApp is what all of us hispanic people use and it's particularly interesting because Meta doesn't really provide you with much tooling to build bots, unlike Telegram. I started this weekend and went all in on cursor. I also streamed the whole process, so yeah, apparently I'm also a streamer now. Check them out at https://www.youtube.com/@alexon_v1/streams.

Since about two years I'm working on a new systems programming language [1] that is supposed to be nearly as fast as C, memory safe, and as concise and easy to learn as Python. Right now I'm trying to integrate Perceus, the ref-count optimization of Keka.

Trying to solve for tracking decisions, rather than issues, so that me & my coding AI buddy stay aligned with what I've decided previously:

Currently dogfooding and evaluating whether it helps in the long term or not.

I am working on https://baolib.org.

Applications on the public cloud raise strong concerns about data protection. As an architect, I spend a meaningful part of my time ensuring the security of customers’ data in the cloud.

Bao introduces an innovative approach where data remains on local devices while the cloud provides encrypted storage for synchronization and peer exchange. Because cloud providers cannot access the data, the need for due diligence is reduced.

Any feedback is welcome.

SocialProof (https://socialproof.dev) – a tool that helps service businesses collect written testimonials from happy clients via a shareable link.

The insight: the friction in getting testimonials isn't that clients don't want to help – it's that a blank "leave a review" box produces mediocre one-liners. SocialProof guides them through structured questions ("what was your situation before?" / "what changed?") so you get a compelling before/after narrative automatically.

Free tier: unlimited testimonials. Just launched and looking for feedback from anyone who deals with client testimonials.

Duralade - a programming language for durable execution (but has many neat aspects)

Most of the work as of today is in a branch, can see the language spec at https://github.com/cretz/duralade/blob/initial-runtime/docs/..., and some samples at https://github.com/cretz/duralade/tree/initial-runtime/sampl....

May not amount to anything, but the ideas/concepts of this durable language are quite nice.

I am working on a P2P VPN app that lets you use a friend abroad as your VPN provider with no special setup: https://spora.to

It's mainly for censorship evasion (should be much harder to block than the regular centralized VPNs), but also for expats to access geo-blocked domestic services.

It's at the MVP stage and honestly it evoked much less interest in people than I hoped it would, but I'm still going on despite my better judgement.

I have been using AI workflows at work to increase the productvity. I have shared these workflows internally and at a couple of tech meetups I went to. I got positive response.

Some of these are present here: https://github.com/vamsipavanmahesh/claude-skills/

Planning to package this as a workshop, so companies could be benefit from AI Native SDLC.

Put together the site yesterday https://getainative.com

Couple of the people I have worked with in the past agreed to meet me for a coffee, will pitch this. Fingers crossed.
