Hey guys! We're engineers/designers from France, and we've built the Ultimate DIY Battery that you can repair and refill!<p>It works with 90% of the bikes/motor brands on the market, so I assumed that some people here might be interested, if they got a non-functional batteries but they still want to use their e-bike?<p>We believe that everybody should have control about stuff they own, and we should fight against planned obsolescence!<p>Here are a few videos about our founder on the battery itself, why we built it, and how to assemble it:<p>- What is the Gouach Battery: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsuW1NPkvNk" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsuW1NPkvNk</a><p>- Presentation of the pack: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLoCihE0eIA" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLoCihE0eIA</a><p>- Presentation of the fireproof and waterproof casing: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDJpt7RDbRM" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDJpt7RDbRM</a><p>Here are the juicy bits: <a href="https://docs.gouach.com" rel="nofollow">https://docs.gouach.com</a><p>We'd love some feedback from the e-bike DIY builder community<p>Oh, and it's launching as a Kickstarter in September and there is an offer for early-backers here <a href="https://get.gouach.com/1" rel="nofollow">https://get.gouach.com/1</a> for a 25% discount on the battery!<p>You can follow us on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/gouach.batteries" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/gouach.batteries</a> to get the latest news!
Oh yes, no interest in AI whatsoever. I've been working on Habitat for the last 4 months. It's a self-hosted social platform for local communities. The plan is for it to be federated, but that's a while off yet.<p>- The idea: <a href="https://carlnewton.github.io/posts/location-based-social-network/" rel="nofollow">https://carlnewton.github.io/posts/location-based-social-net...</a><p>- A build update and plan: <a href="https://carlnewton.github.io/posts/building-habitat/" rel="nofollow">https://carlnewton.github.io/posts/building-habitat/</a><p>- The repository: <a href="https://github.com/carlnewton/habitat">https://github.com/carlnewton/habitat</a><p>- The project board: <a href="https://github.com/users/carlnewton/projects/2">https://github.com/users/carlnewton/projects/2</a>
We're building WorkMode (<a href="https://workmode.net/" rel="nofollow">https://workmode.net/</a>) - a body-doubling platform for extreme procrastinators. In a nutshell, we connect with our users via video call to ensure they stay focused on their tasks. These video calls usually last the entire day. Think of it as "Focus/Productivity as a Service."<p>Replacing our productivity partners (body doubles) with AI avatars simply wouldn't work. The method's effectiveness relies on interaction with another human. We asked some of our users about this, and most of them said they wouldn't feel much pressure to work on their tasks if they knew a machine was watching them. In fact, most of them would feel horrible.
Marginalia Search is an AI-free[1] search engine, mostly because I don't think search is much helped by AI. The sorts of problems that does better than traditional IR-methods based search are things traditional search engines never did particularly well anyway.<p><a href="https://search.marginalia.nu/" rel="nofollow">https://search.marginalia.nu/</a>

I am. Learning management platform, with MVP focused on the all-employee security training required by many certifications (Such as ISO27001, which requires repeat training every 6 months. Other regulatory training coming soon, too).<p>My "product" is to work with companies to create additional company-specific training, such as induction training, product training, etc.<p>Still didn't build a web page for it yet (I have only two customers), but the demo is:<p><a href="https://demo.skillful-training.com" rel="nofollow">https://demo.skillful-training.com</a><p>Username: one@example.com, two@example.com ... ten@example.com
Password: the single digit `1` for all the users<p>I've been pricing the security training at about half what the rest of the industry charges (pricing is per user, roughly 3USD/user/month)<p>There's a builk-invite option so that new clients can simply upload CSVs of their users (Email,Name).
I'm building a web extension for an Inuit language (ᐃᓄᒃᑎᑐᑦ; more details in my past comments). It's my first extension, and though it bucks the AI trend, it's still hip and cool because it's in Rust and WebAssembly ;)<p>To be serious though, it's also using Python and JavaScript, and I'm struggling with slogging through the JS portion. It started out as a mobile keyboard, then I decided to focus on the extension for now. I've also been struggling with connecting with people that would use this extension, so I'm starting to think it won't provide value at all, and I'm considering abandoning it.

I'm working on a project to find the best places for you to live (in the US).<p>Right now, people are deciding where to move based on gut feels, spreadsheets, and wikipedia pages.

While I am indeed working on an LLM interface, my other big project at the moment is a tab manager for Firefox which doesn't have a single AI feature, and it will likely never have.<p><a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/grasshopper-urls/" rel="nofollow">https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/grasshopper-u...</a>

Andrew is a web server to help you write a web page like you're back in the 90s. It consumes and renders web pages from the file system, no databases involved. This is the basic design restriction that informs feature decisions. You get started by writing an "index.html" file and then running Andrew from that directory.<p>It helps with some chores that show up with filesystem based sites, like allowing you to embed a {{ go template }} that'll be replaced with an automatically generated table of contents, automatically rendering a sitemap.xml and a few other things.<p>It can load a private key and cert for SSL traffic, so it's just a little lightweight tool that does one thing reasonably decently.<p>I'm just reading the activitypub RFC so I can add support for federated identity. I'm pretty excited.<p>github.com/playtechnique/andrew
We’re working on a consumer facing self-hosted Minecraft server solution: <a href="https://fractalhome.run" rel="nofollow">https://fractalhome.run</a><p>That said it’s powered by a general purpose distributed computing architecture so it will probably end up running AI workloads at some point.
Many businesses overlook the significant revenue impact of bugs, even in simple elements like a CTA button. we've developed a tool to help mitigate these issues:<p>Automate Testing: Save time by automating your testing process. A 10-minute manual test can be done in under a minute.<p>Prevent Revenue Leakage: Ensure your website's functionality is bug-free to prevent revenue loss.<p>Timely Updates: Receive real-time alerts with step-by-step video recordings of failed tests to quickly identify and fix bugs.<p>Here’s how it can benefit your business:<p>Automated Testing: Ensure all aspects of your website, including CTAs and forms, work seamlessly.<p>Real-Time Alerts: Get immediate updates with detailed video recordings of failed tests.<p>Efficient Troubleshooting: Reduce downtime and keep your website functional.
I’ve been working on <a href="https://console.wut.dev" rel="nofollow">https://console.wut.dev</a> as an alternative, simpler AWS console. Given that AWS has recently started embedding Q (their AI tool) into their UI, I’ll likely keep Wut AI-free.<p>That being said, there are a few features I’ve been thinking of where AI could theoretically make sense (like summarizing recent changes to cloud resources from CloudTrail logs) but if I build that, I’m going to focus on the feature/use case and not try to just “jam AI into it.”
I'm building an app where the competition basically is all about AI. It's a "continuous screen recorder" to look back at what you've worked on over the days or weeks. <a href="https://ScreenMemory.app" rel="nofollow">https://ScreenMemory.app</a><p>All other similar apps (Rewind.ai is the most notable, or maybe Microsofts Recall) basically focus (focused?) on summarizing your day through AI. Personally I am fine with a smaller scope, instead focusing on the visual aspect of a day.
Most folks here are probably tired of hearing about it, but I work on <a href="https://onlineornot.com" rel="nofollow">https://onlineornot.com</a> - uptime monitoring and status pages for software teams.<p>My aim is to build something better than what's already out there.<p>I've worked at companies with proactive monitoring like OnlineOrNot before, and was surprised by how bad existing products were. Adding AI isn't going to help them.
I'm building a loyalty points platform.<p>Started off as a one off solution for a single client, but then I realized that I could generalize it.<p>The one off solution is running for my client for the last year, but the generalized API is still just a docker container on my PC.<p>I've been starting to write about the dev process[1]<p>[1]<a href="https://darrelld.com/signal/21/" rel="nofollow">https://darrelld.com/signal/21/</a>
We're running SimpleBackups (<a href="https://simplebackups.com" rel="nofollow">https://simplebackups.com</a>) a backup solution for databases, servers, storage, and applications.<p>Sounds like a boring business but I love it!
What is funny is the number of times we've brought the "AI" buzzword in our discussions: "Maybe we could rename our anomaly detection to AI xYz, it's AI no?" :D
I’m working on a product for a client, and the amount of pressure I’ve been under to “make it AI” has been tremendous.<p>“Could we add a chat bot?”<p>“What about AI generated images?”<p>This is for an extremely regulated industry, where content needs to be approved by dozens of people prior to being used.<p>(I realise without the context of the actual product this sounds less impressive than it does to me)
I actually tried to shoehorn AI into <a href="https://code.movie/" rel="nofollow">https://code.movie/</a> as an experiment once, but it only got unpredictable and of course extremely slow. Hand-tweaked magic numbers plus escape hatches for manual intervention feel much more reliable.
My first Arduino kit ever arrived yesterday, been playing around with it with my siblings.<p>The rock paper scissors game with an lcd and 3 buttons does not use AI despite it saying<p><pre><code> Player: Rock

I wonder when we'll start marketing our zero-AI products as "artisanal", "organic", "no GMO", "hallucination-free"...
Working on a new free and open source social platform called Kowloon that doesn't even have "algorithms" (unless you count sorting posts by date as an algorithm), much less AI.<p>When I was a kid I went to the Media Lab and got to meet a few of the pioneers and got my copy of Society Of Mind from Dr. Minsky's wife Gloria. I wanted to build AI so bad.<p>Now I'm middle-aged and have zero desire to dick around with Markov chains on meth so marketing scum too lazy or stupid to even write their own copy can pimp their crappy products that no one wants or needs to a dying planet. I'd rather go build furniture on an Amish farm.<p>In lieu of that, the only thing I use AI for is as an autocomplete in VS Code.
