Hi š I make useful things and keep tinkering.
Mint, Alder, Reso, and Scene each started with a different āwhat if?ā Now they all hang out on The Planet.
Come look around. Say hi.

Sharing my work still feels awkward.
But seeing new visits and downloads on this little globe makes me think: someone all the way over there found something I made š„¹
Whatās a small interaction with a user thatās stayed with you?

It got me wondering: What if each thought wasn't just saved, but felt? Imagine a living journal where your notes naturally gather into themes, showing exactly how your mind is doing today.
Built a live notebook (Reso) for this. Checking my own patterns below, my "design" thoughts are finally settling, while my interest in "infra" is warming up and trending up again. (Goodbye romantic week, back into the weeds... š«£)

Hope everyoneās enjoying the long weekend.
I have way too many files and not nearly enough patience to organize them one by one...
So naturally, I built a button for it. š

For years the only place I could see my time going somewhere was the GitHub contribution graph.
This is the other half. Every thought I said out loud since April, growing into a map. 2,684 of them. š

Each dot is one dictated note. Notes about the same thing gather. The timeline replays five months from the first note to the last.
The big cluster is building software. The small ones are the parts of my life I apparently talk about least.

You can do this in Reso, the app I'm building.
Make every thought a home: resoapp.xyz

Having it explained != having it understood. AI needs to touch grass and hang out with humans more lol.

My ~/.codex was 23 GB. 71% of it: screenshots. Mostly the SAME screenshot, re-pasted by compaction over and over.
So I built a button. 465 old conversations, one click, 7.26 GB back. Text untouched. Every one still opens in Codex. š±

So, two buttons. Compress: screenshots become small previews, the text stays byte for byte. Delete: drag the slider to "untouched 30+ days" and let Codex remove them itself. Both permanent, both say so before they run.

When I started solo, I was terrified of being judged. What if no one likes it?
But I realized the opportunity cost of hiding is so much worse: you miss out on connecting with amazing people.
Thank you to everyone who visited. You helped me realize that putting yourself out there isn't as hard as it seems.
Keep building!

My Mac kept filling up, and my Downloads folder kept getting messy. So Iāve been building Mint to help with both! šØ

Turns out 22.8 GB of AI agent conversations is mostly... the same images over and over.
We audited 1,231 Codex session files:
ā¢ 77% of all bytes were images
ā¢ 39% were exact duplicates

The hard part isnāt finding large filesāitās deciding whether theyāre actually safe to remove. These are the checks Mint uses before recommending anything:

Downloads is a different kind of mess. Hereās how I think about organizing it by source, type, date, or topicāwhile keeping the rules reviewable:
