ValuePair – a friendship app that cares about values first
Hey, I would like to show you my project, but it's difficult because it only works with a registration, so I explain the concept to you. The Idea: Everyone who registers has to do an onboarding and answer meaningful questions that help you to find a right match. The matching happens by the system. Once you're done with the onboarding, you enter the pool. When a match is found, you go into a 1on1 14 question-set with that person. All answers are revealed immediately. At the end both decide if they form a connection or not. Only if both agree, the chat opens. Once a connection is formed, they…

What it does
ValuePair is a free friendship app without swiping. We introduce you to one person who fits your values, not your photos. You both answer the same 14 questions and see each answer only once you've both answered. Photos stay hidden until you both choose to share.
A friendship app where every match starts with 14 shared questions. You both answer privately, then reveal together. One person at a time, with no feed or swiping.
Meet one person matched on what matters to you. Answer the same 14 questions privately, then reveal each response together. Matching uses what matters to you, while photos stay out of the first decision. They want the same thing. You see this only after you both answer. It gives you something real to talk about, while your photos stay private. Join the free mobile beta. On iPhone, install Apple's free TestFlight app once, then ValuePair. Fourteen questions in three stages, starting lightly and becoming more personal. You both answer the same questions. The format draws on published research about how people build closeness. A free weekend, nothing you have to do. What really gives you…from valuepair.app

Meet people, have more conversations about what truly interests you2024 · pairup.social · ▲23Hi all, Andrew here. I hate smalltalk[1] but love deep conversations and want more of them, for myself and for others. This is why I made pairup.social. It's a conversation-finding and friend-finding app based on the things you'd most like to talk about. Sure, you have your friends, colleagues and family you can talk to, but it can be hard to go deep on your unique interests. Finding and reaching out to people on the internet is possible, but in practice I find I don’t really do it that much. It’s a bit awkward. If I found them on a single-topic discussion group, I don’t know much else about…

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.…

OpenSEO▲928Hello! 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…
