    A few weeks ago I shared an early version of MentionedBy.ai — a tool we built to monitor how your brand is mentioned inside AI-generated answers from ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and other LLMs. We’re now officially live This started from our own frustration. Our startup wasn’t being mentioned in ChatGPT responses, even for queries where we were clearly relevant. Meanwhile, legacy or SEO-heavy brands kept showing up. We realized: AI is becoming the new search engine — and no one knows how they rank in it. So we built MentionedBy to answer questions like: How often does your brand…

  • I made a built-from scratch Wayland Compositor to display any GUI app* in the terminal! I think there is a lot of unexplored potential in custom Wayland compositors, a lot of really cool things you can embed existing applications into! So, I started with embedding apps into the terminal because that is the easiest input/output (output is just utf-8 and I use the great `chafa` library for that, and I just read from stdin for the input). If you have any other ideas for cool Wayland compositors, let me know. I purposedly wrote 80% the app in Typescript to appeal to the most developers and…

Every pixel and every function went through me. The AI translated what I asked for into code, but every decision was human. I didn't use existing OS…
