Finlab

What it does

FinLab is a personal finance system built inside Obsidian. Track accounts, budgets, goals, and transactions through a beautifully designed interactive interface — all stored locally on your machine. No cloud, no subscription, no lock-in. Every number on the dashboard is calculated live. Add a transaction, your budget updates. Log a deposit, your balance moves. Monthly reports populate themselves. Your data stays on your device. Always private, always yours.

TL;DR - ProjectionLab (https://projectionlab.com) is a privacy-friendly personal finance planning tool where you can create financial plans that go beyond the standard online retirement calculators.

  I built a tiny LLM to demystify how language models work▲915

  Built a ~9M param LLM from scratch to understand how they actually work. Vanilla transformer, 60K synthetic conversations, ~130 lines of PyTorch. Trains in 5 min on a free Colab T4. The fish thinks the meaning of life is food. Fork it and swap the personality for your own character.

  I built a frontpage for personal blogs▲783

  With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
