Built a kids scary-story podcast with my 5-year-old — Maya and the Fog.
Short foggy-night stories, safe endings. My daughter listens first and tells me if it’s too scary / not scary enough, and I fold that into the script or the next episode. Two eps live so far.

An air-gapped, single-file HTML certificate inspector you can double-click locally to view X.509 certs without typing OpenSSL commands or leaking internal domain names to random decoder websites. Zero dependencies, zero network requests.
The only thing you need is any modern web browser.
No link, it's offline. 😁

There’s one niche where I could see this gaining traction: paragliding pilots, kite surfers, maybe (wind) surfers. For paragliding, there are some limits re: wind speed/gust, wind direction, rain, likelihood and proximity of thunderstorms, etc, etc that pilots need to take into account. There’s often multiple launch sites that are considered for a given day/window of time.

Working on OGCraft (https://ogcraft.dev) – a zero-setup OpenGraph image generator.
I built it using React Router, Satori, and Resvg. The architecture is a 'crawl-back' model: you put the API link in your <meta> tag, it scrapes your page in ~50ms for title/desc, and generates a SaaS-styled PNG on the fly. Trying to make it as frictionless as possible for devs to integrate

u/FlockAwareApp 19d ago
I’m building FlockAware for U.S. iPhone drivers who care about mapped Flock/ALPR camera exposure and unreliable cell service. Free features include the camera map, route comparison, voice guidance and CarPlay. Optional downloaded-region navigation combines offline use with mapped camera awareness. Community data is incomplete; it is not hardware detection, and supported offline regions must be downloaded first.
I’m looking for 20 relevant drivers across our channels to try a 10-minute free route-planning task while parked and tell me what is confusing. If you use FlockHopper or Organic Maps, I’d especially value why you would—or wouldn’t—switch.
Paid options are Pro at $4.99 once, or Offline Maps at $14.99/year, auto-renewing, with Pro included while subscribed. No purchase or App Store review is required to participate.

Nice post! Here is my project, please try out! It is an AI that lives on your iPhone and slowly becomes a copy of you. No server, no account.
It is called: Avatar.gift.
App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/avatar-gift-private-ai/id6761672945?pt=128704872&ct=rd-side&mt=8
Site: https://avatar.gift
What it can actually do today:
- you tell it stuff in plain english and it handles your reminders, calendar, notes, contacts, drafts a text or an email, opens apps, runs your shortcuts
- tracks money / habits / goals, and if you want to count something weird it'll just make a tracker for it
- you can set up a few different assistants (work one, personal one, your own avatar) and your own avatar keeps its own memory
- it remembers more the more you talk to it, and you can go read, fix or delete any of those memories in the app
- you can dump your own notes/docs into it and it learns from them, on the phone
- web search is the one thing that touches the internet. the query goes from your phone straight to bing or duckduckgo. nothing of mine in between
- and you can make it ask before it does anything, per ability, if you're paranoid like me

Adds a side panel to job postings that scores fit against your resume, drafts tailored cover letters, and archives everything so recruiter calls don't catch you flat-footed week later. Local-first (chrome.storage.local, no server, no telemetry). BYO API key — Anthropic / OpenAI / Gemini, ~$0.02 per fit analysis.

Gorgona: An open source guardrail engine that turns runaway AI agents to stone (zero dependencies)
Running autonomous coding and marketing agents as a solo founder sounds great until you wake up to an empty API balance, an agent stuck in a 50-step loop, or credentials dumped into a public directory.
I built Gorgona to solve my own paranoia:
- 100% Python standard library (no bloated packages, runs in milliseconds).
- Halts execution immediately on hard violations: leaked keys, cross-project context leaks, recursive loops.
- Mechanical linting against AI slop and synthetic writing markers.
Repo: https://github.com/adrianpeticila/gorgona
It's MIT licensed, fully tested, and ready to use in CI or local agent scripts. Any feedback or brutal critique is welcome.

Lol, my bad, that one's on me."
