Booksmania
The smartest way to find your next read.
What it does
We built Booksmania because Goodreads got too noisy - no real curation, just endless lists. What's different: - AI matches your mood & last read to books you'll finish - Curated picks refreshed weekly by AI - Book comparisons with pros, cons & a verdict - Every pick links to Amazon No sign-up. No paywall. Just your next great read. Two indie builders, first launch - love your feedback! 🙏

So I built Kaguya, a modern alternative, over the past 9 months. What’s live: Custom shelves (Organize however you want) Rich-text reviews (format your thoughts properly) 10-star rating system (More nuance than 5 stars) DNF, On-Hold, and other reading statuses Likes,…

Hey we are Computable. We spent years building trading infrastructure at Jump Trading and Coinbase. From that point of view, compute looks like energy markets before 2000: everything trades through private bilateral leases, there’s no visible price, and nothing can be resold. The same H100 rents at a 2x spread depending on who’s asking, and once you sign a 24-month lease, it can never change hands. So we built a market for GPU nodes, sold by the calendar week. Here are three things you can do on it that you can’t do anywhere else: - Buy exactly the weeks you need. Three nodes for the last…
