This list is likely incomplete, but here are a few highlights:
git-datasets: an extension to git that attempts to introduce a new “data as code” paradigm. it enables you to declaratively create, transform and manage datasets of any size, letting you start small and scale as much as you need
typed-api: an extension to fastapi that introduces a concise language to specify http responses in the return values (return 200, {“x-some-header”: 123}, “a body”)
montycarlo: a general purpose monte carlo particle simulator that computes the coupled transport of photons, electrons and positrons on any material and geometry – features a new and more efficient method of particle transport (paper being written still ._.)
OpenBook: Enhance organizational transparency by indexing structured Markdown files into Excel & API queryable views, enabling detailed tracking such as membership or grant usage through transactional records, while maintaining data in a version-controlled, queryable system.
CurseFund: Reverse swear jar to help families save for events and to curtail cursing.
BrightChain: Based on the Owner Free Filesystem, this pre-alpha Node/TypeScript project offers decentralized solutions for data storage and management, enhancing security and privacy. Features include Brokered Anonymity for encrypted identity protection, quorum-based document sealing, and Paillier encrypted voting systems. Development is ongoing, with a focus on block-level data integrity, complex block generation, and recovery processes.
Project Albatross: NX React Auth0 Node Mongo Application generator. This helper will take you through generation of an NX monorepo with a React frontend that uses Auth0 for authentication, a Node backend, and set up a devcontainer with a Mongo database.
Duality Social: Pre-alpha. A Turing test and a social network meet at a bar
SoundStorm: Pre-alpha site to upload Native Instruments Komplete.db3 to produce indices of usable sounds and then provide a way to organize those sounds logically into projects/songs
Ihab Amedras is working on:
Darijagenai, a generative Model for Moroccan Dialect Text (arabic dialect that has aspects of french and spanish and berber)
Plans:
making a custom tokenizer for darija
making an etl pipeline to scrape more darija text from social media (i already have 80k rows, hoping to use that to make the pipeline more accurate)
developing a model to generate and understand Darija, aiming to improve natural language processing for Moroccan dialect.
