Projects

Built on weekends, debugged on weeknights.

  1. Threat Wire

    Security alerts and news on one page, with zero-days flagged.

  2. Golden Hour

    Golden and blue hour for any place and day, with a cloud check and photo spots nearby.

  3. Circadian Rhythm Calculator

    Bed and wake times that line up with 90-minute sleep cycles, and a plan for the day around them.

  4. Pump Fiction

    Cheapest gas on your route or nearby, and the last stop before you run dry.

  5. VideoConverter

    Convert, trim and resize video in the browser with ffmpeg.wasm. Files never leave your device.

  6. Should I Ride?

    Scores the weather for a bike ride from 0 to 100 and picks the best hour to go.

  7. BarCoder

    EAN barcodes and QR codes, downloaded as print-ready vector PDF.

  8. Game, in progress

    ZeroOut

    Merge every box on a chessboard into one. Boxes slide like rooks and add up when they meet, and trailing zeros drop off: 23 + 37 becomes 6.

  9. Transcriber

    Speech to text with Whisper, running in your browser. Exports subtitles too.

  10. Break Timer

    A countdown for meeting breaks that shows when everyone is due back. Works offline as one HTML file.

  11. DIY

    Poor Man’s Pizza Oven

    A wood-fired garden oven stacked from bricks and pavers, no mortar. Built in an afternoon.

  12. Hardware

    Who’s Home Camera

    A Raspberry Pi 5 camera that greets people by name and tells Home Assistant who’s home. No picture leaves the Pi.

On the bench

  • Dino Bot

    An Arduino with a light sensor plays the Chrome dinosaur game. Now you can lose to a robot.

  • 1969 Starcraft Coho

    An aluminum boat and its 85 hp Evinrude. Right now it floats mostly in theory.

  • Home Darkroom

    Black and white and color film at home, once I find every light leak.
