What it does

Ascend helps you build the identity you want to become, one habit, one day, one decision at a time. Most habit trackers focus on what you do. Ascend focuses on who you're becoming. Create a personalized plan in under 30 seconds, build habits around the person you want to become, and track progress beyond streaks. ✨ Identity-based onboarding ⚡ Create a plan in 30 seconds 🎯 Habits aligned with your goals 🌱 Small actions that compound into lasting change

Ascend is the identity-first habit tracker for iOS and Android. Build the person you want to become with small daily actions, weekly reviews, and private on-device storage.

Ascend helps you build the identity you want to become, one habit, one day, one decision at a time. Most habit apps start with tasks. Ascend starts with who you want to become, then builds the daily actions that reinforce that identity. The check-in is a short daily reflection , tied to that identity, not a blank journal page. When your habits are tied to identity, consistency isn't willpower. It's who you are. Import a programme into Ascend in one tap: habits, reminders, identities, and milestones ready to go. Start with ADHD starting help or a fitness challenge. For people who know what to do but can’t start. One tiny action, no shame. A 10-minute body-first morning. Leave the bedroom…from ascendapp.cc

    I might be the only SRE on Earth with his own bowling center. It's a more in-depth gig than you'd think. My family and I bought an abandoned 8-lane bowling center in the rural mid-west. In our small town there weren't many recreation options for families. You've heard of a food desert? This is an R&R desert. It had been abandoned for a good reason. The roof leaks, the electrical system was constantly surging, and my 70-year-old bowling equipment (still) doesn't work perfectly. The system that keeps your score is particularly interesting to me. It's the thing you watch during your game, but…

    Over the past few months, our team has been building more and more slidedecks using web frontend technologies with coding harnesses like Claude Code, but a common complaint is to make even small edits we need to edit the code either manually or via the harness. To avoid this loop, I ended up creating Bento, a single HTML file with everything you need in a slide tool including animations and shared editing. There's no install or cloud login, everything works offline. The default deck is around 560 KB and it doesn't need to fetch anything once you got it. Open it in a browser and then you can…

  • A few days ago I found myself trying out GLM 5.2 and was really positively impressed. The capabilities and security I was getting from this LLM are similar to those I've gotten from models like Claude or GPT, and this really surprised me. But then I thought, "I wonder how it would work on a normal computer like mine," and above all, "I wonder if it would work without going into OOM on a computer like mine." So I started working with the help of agents to test this possibility. I started converting the model to int4, understanding MTP usage, and if possible implementing DSA for long context.…

    Hello! For the last 2 months, I've been building OpenSEO. It's a user friendly UI wrapping the DataForSEO API which has high quality SEO data for keywords, backlinks, AI SEO and competitor research. Instead of paying $100+ per month, you buy DataForSEO credits and pay only for usage. The coolest thing about the project so far has been hearing about what people are building on top of it. People are using coding agents to quickly integrate with Google Search Console, Google Ads and building their own AI SEO and reporting features. Many were already building their own custom solutions around…
