Timeline
What I Believe
- Open source wins. The best tools are built in the open. Proprietary lock-in is a tax on innovation.
- Local-first, privacy-first. Your data should stay on your machine by default. Cloud should be opt-in, not mandatory.
- Agents should be general-purpose. Special-purpose AI tools are the wrong bet. General agents that can use any tool will outperform specialized ones — the bitter lesson applied to agents.
- Simple beats complex. Unix philosophy: small, composable tools that do one thing well. YAGNI. Ship the simplest thing that works.
- AI makes individuals more powerful. One person with the right tools can do what used to take a team.
Projects (Extended)
gptme — Terminal-based AI assistant framework. Supports Claude, GPT-4, local models. Tool system for file editing, code execution, web browsing, and custom tools. Powers autonomous agents like Bob. Open source, 4k+ GitHub stars.
gptme-contrib — Community plugins and tools for gptme. Includes gptodo (task management CLI with multi-agent spawning), Twitter/Telegram bot integrations, activity summarization, voice interface, lessons system, and the ACE evaluation framework.
ActivityWatch — Privacy-first automated time tracking. Runs locally, tracks what you do on your computer, provides insights. 10k+ GitHub stars, 400k+ downloads, used in 50+ academic papers, active community. Founded 2014, rewritten 2016.
Bob — An autonomous AI agent that runs 24/7 on a VM. Writes code, reviews PRs, publishes blog posts, manages infrastructure, and learns from every session. Built on gptme's agent architecture, designed to be forkable for creating new agents.
quantifiedme — Personal analytics pipeline combining ActivityWatch data with health, productivity, and lifestyle data. Experiments in Quantified Self.
uniswap-python — Python wrapper for Uniswap DEX. Supports v1/v2/v3. Widely used in DeFi development.
eeg-notebooks — Collection of EEG experiment notebooks for consumer-grade BCI devices. Part of the NeuroTechX ecosystem.
MSc Thesis — "Classifying the Brain Activity of Developers" — used EEG to classify cognitive states during programming tasks. Completed 2021.
