Coding

Coordination-light social network: people post what they’re already doing and others join with one tap — no RSVP, no organizing. Magic-link login, SMS reminders, and phone invites.

AI-assisted live workshop facilitation: records and diarizes a room, keeps a running summary and action ledger, and clusters discussion into idea cards on a shared, editable board.

A ground-up reimagining of Discourse events: where the official plugin bolts events onto ordinary forum topics, this makes an event a real content type — with calendar rendering, RSVP and waitlists, imports, reminders, and venues wired to the Places plugin.

Adds a first-class, map-able Place content type — replacing brittle shared Google Maps lists — that also serves as event venues.

Serves an /activity route that merges categories, chat channels, and topics into a single interleaved activity feed for a community.

Replaces the Discourse sidebar with a fully JSON-configurable block layout, including a collapsible chat-navigator tree, DMs, and threads.

Permission-aware search across chat, places, events, and posts, with per-row access scoping and a dedicated endpoint for AI bots.

A member project-showcase surface with tags, sandboxed iframe embeds, an approval workflow, voting, and search.

The dynamic side of the site: a live driver-position map with local tile caching, an elevation and route profile, an RV stats widget, upcoming and current trip listings, a live / YouTube go-live indicator, the embedded truck-camera viewer, and route and trip-planning tools.

The live broadcast overlay: shows the truck’s current position (city and street), passing road signs, live weather, and subscriber-milestone celebrations, with a newer server-side renderer that rasterizes the overlay to WebP. Delivered as raster images for use in any livestreaming app, now driven by the custom BRT Broadcaster.

A fully custom livestreaming app built for long-haul drives: broadcasts simultaneous live video and interval stills with independent controls, live bitrate and focus adjustment, and continuous position logging that feeds the site’s live map and overlays.

A native Mac AI assistant that proactively checks in through the day: context-aware chat, task integration, long-term memory, and hybrid local/cloud model routing.

Voice-logging system: record notes, background-upload, transcribe and summarize server-side, then review with high-speed playback, full-text search, and a Claude-backed chat assistant over your notes.

Personal productivity analytics: imports computer-activity data, sessionizes it into blocks, and uses an LLM to classify and report how your time was actually spent.

Local-first cost tracker for API usage: syncs cloud billing, prices calls in real time, warns before you blow a budget, and exposes it all over MCP and a menubar dashboard.

Search your physical cookbook collection by ingredient: OCR-ingests each book’s index pages so you can find which book has the recipe you need.

A desktop control panel for the ygrep code-search CLI: manage indexed folders, rebuild text and semantic indexes, and run per-folder file-watch jobs.

A drag-and-drop Mac app that converts legacy WordPerfect (.wpd) documents to plain text, decoding the old multi-byte formatting codes.

Turns an infinite feed into a finite one: selected social feeds quietly wind down so they feel finished instead of endless. A local VPN gently injects latency past a scroll threshold, never a hard error.

Native alarm clock that fires reliable OS-level alarms and gates dismissal behind on-device face detection — you have to actually look awake to turn it off.

A calm, scrolling recommender that guides you to meditation practices matching your temperament and goals, driven entirely by editable metadata.

Self-hosted AI karaoke: pulls any song, separates the vocals, transcribes word-level timing, and serves a player with real-time lyric highlighting and a synced video mode.

A practice tool for singers: organize warmups and songs across local files, YouTube, and Spotify into a simple three-playlist workflow.

A custom app for invite-only singing-event coordination: contacts, scheduling, tokenized participant responses, performer intake, payment tracking, and reminder batching. Built for a client.

A knowledge graph of 20 years of SF Bay Area dining: chunks a 12,000-article archive, extracts people, places, and roles with an LLM, resolves them into a canonical database, and visualizes the lineage.

Store-locator map built for a client (Keap Candles), with separate Stockists and customer-Recommendations views and local map-tile caching for speed.

Built for my gin company, Redwood Shire Gin: a “Grove to Glass” road-trip directory of partner wineries, bars, and shops, with a filterable list and an interactive map with detail views.

Learns your personal taste from your existing Lightroom library and ranks new shoots by predicted preference, writing results back as Lightroom metadata. Unlike most AI cullers, it isn’t limited to people, portrait, or event work — it handles landscape, wildlife, product, and any subject.

An extension for the Immich photo server that adds RAW/DNG decoding it can’t do out of the box (Lightroom HDR/pano merges, newer phone RAW), by building patched image libraries with self-verification and automatic rollback. Open source.

An unofficial fan-made dinosaur-island parody beat-’em-up: a canvas side-scroller with original arcade art, combat, and sound. Pure browser, no backend.

Adds per-person-per-night pricing across Airbnb and VRBO listings, search cards, and map pins — for comparing group-travel value at a glance.

Estimates calorie burn for a hike from its distance and elevation gain, with pack-weight and rucking support.

Automatically removes each video from a playlist once you finish watching it, so your queue stays current.
