What it does

PrivacyStage secures your Mac screen sharing with one click! Features: Desktop & Notification Shields: Hide desktop icons and silence alerts. Window Hider: Easily hide multiple private windows from your audience. Privacy Mask: On-device AI blurs sensitive data in real-time. Panic Hotkey: Hit one button to instantly activate all shields and hide everything! 100% on-device processing. Never leak private info again!

PrivacyStage hides sensitive windows, masks on-screen text with on-device OCR, and broadcasts a clean stage to any meeting app. Native macOS, by aieltokhy.

PrivacyStage sits quietly in your menu bar. The moment you go on a call, it gives you a calm, controlled "stage" to share — with everything else tucked safely out of view. Two protection modes do the heavy lifting. Stealth Mode hides whole windows you nominate — notifications, password managers, the wrong Slack channel. OCR Masking uses on-device Vision to detect and blur sensitive text on the fly. A built-in virtual camera lets you route the protected feed into any meeting app — Zoom, Meet, Teams, Webex — without them needing to know PrivacyStage exists. Everything runs locally. Nothing about your screen ever leaves your Mac. Mark windows or whole apps as private. They vanish from any…from aieltokhy.com

    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…
