Projects

Fourteen chapters and six appendices that teach non-programmers to read, direct, and check code in the age of AI — built around interactive demos instead of lectures. Ordering food is easy; this course is about learning to cook.

Most subjects have been explained beautifully somewhere. The problem is finding the path through them. Artyfacts lets experts build that path — not new content, just the structure that makes existing content navigable.

Biblocal is a bookshelf that does something. Track what you own, lend to neighbors, discuss ideas with people nearby, and find the readers around you who care about the same things.

Bropilot is a Build Roadmap Orchestrator — documentation as code that keeps your purpose, requirements, and implementation plan honest as the software evolves. Because the only docs worth trusting are the ones that haven't quietly become historical fiction yet.

Co-Change lets communities map goals, assumptions, tradeoffs, and possible actions together — then uses Single Transferable Votes to surface the path the group actually wants. The structure comes from the participants, not from the top.

DAWKA (Documents As Working Knowledge Agents) keeps documents current through scheduled research, cited revisions, and updates you control.

Diagramatize is a local web app that takes a concept and turns it into an editable vector diagram, using language models for the thinking and image models for the drawing.

Journals are usually one-way: you write, then forget. everyME makes old writing resurface so you can respond to it — agree, argue, update. What you believed two years ago is either still true or worth understanding why it changed.

f.ads is a private, single-owner reading surface for finite, explainable editions built from ATProto and RSS sources. One person signs in, and the Worker assembles a bounded edition with a trace of why each item is there.

Flood Playback is a viewer for the June 2022 floods in Assam and nearby northeast India. It plays a locally generated sequence built from NASA GIBS MODIS flood observations, with the original imagery and false-color satellite views available for comparison.

gh-runnermaxxer is a terminal UI for running many GitHub Actions self-hosted runners on one machine, across any number of repositories and organizations. It downloads the runner, registers it, and supervises it while the program is open.

Every serious undertaking starts the same way: a pile of half-formed thoughts that seem too obvious to structure and too tangled to act on. GRREAT walks them through stages (goals, research, roadmap, execution, analysis, time) and keeps asking 'have you actually thought about that?' until you have.

My home server experiments include repurposing a mining card as an extra GPU and running an LLM on my own hardware. Anyone with a Gmail account can try talking to it; its personality is still a work in progress.

A spaced repetition app for learning French. It schedules reviews with FSRS-5, adjusts the amount of help per exercise based on how you are doing, and practises each item through eleven different game types.

A globe-based learning game that follows history and science through real places and times. Choose a journey, fly between its checkpoints, and solve challenges as the story unfolds.

A draft tells you what you ended up with. Metawriter helps you understand how you got there — the choices, habits, detours, and patterns that shape your writing. Craft improves faster when you treat it like something worth studying.

My hardware project exploring the OpenFlexure microscope: an open-source digital microscope platform built around 3D-printed parts, optics, and software-controlled movement.

A native Android camera app that gets as close to the sensor as the platform allows and does its own processing from there. It captures RAW DNGs, switches off the built-in image processing where it can, and develops photos with its own GPU pipeline.

Plates is a Slack app that keeps every ask on someone's plate until the person who asked says it is done. Tag it in a thread and it works out who is asking whom for what, confirms, and tracks the ask until it is closed.

A browser tool that turns any link into a 3D-printable QR code — with real dimensions, material choices, color, and logo support. Print it on a namecard, a sign, a gift, or whatever needs a physical link to a digital thing.

An interactive quantum circuit simulator built on the ideas behind Quirk. Arrange gates, watch quantum states change, and learn through guided lessons and visual explanations.

As organizations grow, coordination quietly starts to crowd out contribution. Decisions get relitigated, strategy drifts as it travels, and teams spend their best hours translating context to each other. Solowly makes the priorities, roles, decisions, and dependencies of a company visible in one living system, so shared understanding is explicit instead of constantly rebuilt by hand.

studyus is a study planner that connects course concepts, practice, and deadlines to recommend what to study next. A product engineering case study.

sys1-bench is an eval suite for OpenRouter decision models: small models that return a choice, a score or a probability instead of text. It runs them over a dataset of structured judgments and compares accuracy, calibration, cost and latency.

An interactive, local-first Theory of Change canvas transcribed from a Civic Tech Montreal FigJam workshop. It lays out the workshop notes as cards and lets you trace and edit the causal links between them.

A local-first task list with timelapse recordings. Pick a task, record yourself working, and turn the session into a short video, with your tasks and recordings kept on your device.

The big questions — what consciousness is, what makes a choice free, what meaning actually means — are asked by everyone and answered clearly by almost no one. Unnatural is an ongoing attempt to change that, in plain language.
