What it does

FocusCorp blocks distracting apps and turns focused time into a gamified startup office with Bob.

FocusCorp helps founders block distracting apps with real iPhone Screen Time controls, protect their build hours, and turn focused work into visible company progress.

Founders don't need more willpower. You need the feed locked and a reason to show up. FocusCorp blocks your distracting apps for real and turns every focus session into progress in a pixel startup that grows as you do. Three hours a day is the average. That's not "relaxing" — it's this: The focus quiz runs your own numbers. They usually hurt more. The same loop that runs in the app: block the noise, do the work, watch the company grow. Your focus sessions build a living pixel office. Bob and the team show up when you do, so every protected block of work moves the company forward. Pick 5 to 90 minutes and start. Your distracting apps lock, the wall clock counts down, and Bob gets to work.…from focuscorp.app

    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…
