I'm implementing Raft consensus from scratch in C++ with raw TCP sockets. Right now I'm working on a high-performance RPC client and server to keep network latency to a minimum. The main purpose of this project is to hone my systems programming skills and get more comfortable with distributed systems as well. One of the coolest things I've learned here is event-driven I/O with epoll and how event-loop architectures work in asynchronous setups.

I am building HomeBidder (https://homebidder-web.fly.dev), a tool for figuring out a realistic bid price for houses. I got sick of seeing artificially low listing prices on sites like Zillow so built this tool to give me a more realistic number based on comps. Along the way I've learned to add confidence intervals, adjust for lot size and fixer status, and provide QOL information like access to transit and how bad the pollution is. It is heavily optimized for SF but I'm starting to iterate and validate on other cities.

Float-explorer, a tool for generating very precise assembly programs to explore the darkest recesses of floating-point behavior on your processor without having to bully the compiler into generating the code for you.

And when I say darkest recesses, I'm not referring to "0.1 + 0.2 != 0.3" (which is fairly well-known) but things like "so when you turn on denormal flushing, how exactly are you defining it because there's at least three different definitions..." Or also "does my emulator actually emulate floating-point behavior correctly, or is it delegating to the current hardware which might have a slightly different definition?"

https://dataraven.io managed rclone for object storage. It’s for teams running cloud-to-cloud transfers, migrations, and scheduled syncs without having to own any infra.

I'm focused on the operational features rclone doesn't have out of the box: notifications, centralized logs, team access, audit logs, and analytics like bytes transferred, objects changed, and failure rates. Recently reworked the guided onboarding flow and im adding more storage providers.

The BYOV secret support is pretty unique and im surprised more platforms don't support the model.

Docker is...quite slow with large images. I've built a registry+pull client+buildkit builder to make it better. It splits apart layers, allowing for files to be shared between related images. In a robotics context, it can make pulls 10x faster. And in a cloud context, the format allows for pulling an image in 15 or 20 seconds instead of 60, without having to do a FUSE w/lazy pulling. Builds are faster, I store 7x less data due to better deduplication, I can run security scans faster due to not having to unpack tarball layers, etc, etc. I want to be the default registry for all ML related work, in the future.

A system to learn how to chat with dolphins, at https://www.dolphinwhispers.com and maybe become a contender for the 10 million $ Coller-Dolittle Prize https://coller-dolittle-24.sites.tau.ac.il/

I'm working on creating the most useful browser start page for power users and workers in tech.

One of my favourite features is the iframe widget, which allows you to select any element on a website and turn it in to a widget.

Dream Chimp - https://dreamchimp.app

It's a 3rd party preset editor for Universal Audio UAFX guitar pedals [1]. I'm supporting Dream '65 for now, rolling out support for Lion '68 next week. More pedals will follow when I have some free time.

If you're a guitar nerd and own one of those pedals please check it out!

Oh, it's completely free too!

Social network for gamers (iOS/Android, soon web).

Tinder meets Discord and, somehow, they have their way with Uber/Calendly.

It's live if you want to test it: https://jynx.app/

Let me know what you think of it. The main goals I want to achieve are: 1. help with social isolation 2. help e-sport team with sourcing and organizing
