    If this is interesting to you, you should check out the interesting work that karlicoss and others have done with "Human Programming Interface" [0] / [1].

    I've been kicking this idea around for quite a few years and have gone through multiple iterations before finding HPI and tossing out all my work in favor of building off theirs.

    HPI is a great platform to build your own stuff off and benefit from all the work that has already been done because imo building a good foundation is the hardest part. Sean Breckenridge's HPI-API is super interesting and useful, could likely be worked into this search engine concept, quite sure Sean actually has both newsboat and Firefox modules already made.

    I wrote modules of my own and made an authentication wrapped HPI-API and a GraphQL instance but currently in the middle of an infra move so nothing super cool to show off.

    Lots of interesting stuff in collecting and leveraging your data. If any of this stuff catches your eye, I highly encourage browsing karlicoss' exobrain [2] because there are some interesting things in there.

    It's a bit heavier on the automatic data aggregation side, but has some manual inputs as data sources too.

    This is my approach!

    I'm using HPI [0] as a sort of universal API for almost all of my data (manual notes, bookmarks, instant messages, internet comments, etc)

    Then I use it in tools like Orger [1] and Promnesia [2] which function as my second brain

    I suppose HPI[0] kind of is that? ;)

    A community repository would be super nice for those. Something along the lines of DefinitelyTyped[1], all managed through git, easily integrates with other stuff (like shown on npmjs.org when the @types package exists), allows maintainers to "own" the adapters they contribute. It's really the N adapters * T time per adapter that really makes it hard for one person to do. That plus monitoring API changes/flakiness of each adapter to make sure the data is still solid.

    I'm working on tools/projects to unify, access, interact and use my personal data for quantified self, knowledge management, etc.

    A couple of examples:

    Would very much love to discuss it with other people, collaborate etc.

  • Questions about Emacs
    3 projects | /r/emacs | 13 Oct 2021
    Emacs is born as a human-computer interface, not specifically a PIM/PKM systems (Personal Information Management systems, Personal Knowledge Management systems), those are born at Xerox Parc and they never really took off, unfortunately. You can find a small intro like https://doi.org/10.1145/1480506.1480524 you can find many research articles and thesis on the ACM and other places, try https://karl-voit.at/tagstore/downloads/Voit2011.pdf by /u/publicvoit today in Emacs the most popular of such systems in org-roam, a wrapper/accessing tool for org-mode, witch is probably one of the most powerful, Memacs is another classic one that do something more and something less, Dimitri Gerasimov have it's own public HPI https://beepb00p.xyz/hpi.html with Grasp and Promnesia extensions for Emacs and probably many others do exists but they are used/developed by a small community and while in the "old" wiki book before, "personal note/evernote boom", now "zettelkasten boom" interest keep being there documentation especially at newcomer level is nearly zero... There are research papers, few whole books, tons of articles, but nothing like a complete and simple learning path...

  • Ask HN: What not-profit-seeking project are you tinkering with this week?
    37 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 18 Oct 2022
    On (some) weekends I work on Megadetector GUI [0]. Megadetector [1] is an object detection model trained on millions of camera trap images and is widely used by conservationists. The issue is that it's rather technical to set up, so I made a GUI for it.

    Currently working on a brand new version (not public just yet) that will use the latest MD version (v5 is way faster), better UI and most importantly GPU support out of the box.

    > ML to identify gorillas by their unique nose prints

    Really cool stuff. I wonder if face detection is sufficient too? It has been proven to work for brown bears [0].

    I have also been doing some open source work [1] to democratise object detection in this space but I haven't had the time to make improvements to the project in a while.

  • Kea parrots perform domain-general statistical inference
    1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 22 Feb 2021
    In case any camera trap folk are here, I'm currently volunteering with the NZ Department of Conservation to build an AI-assisted image sorting tool that speeds up the weeding out of empty images.

    https://github.com/petargyurov/megadetector-gui

    This currently used to assist the conservation efforts of various endemic species such as the kakapo, kea and takahe. (The ML model used is not limited to just these species!)
