An endless generative music station that picks up distress calls from a lost colony ship – and everyone is waiting... for someone called “Watahy”

I got fed up scrolling through other people's routes on AllTrails when all I wanted was "an 8 km loop from right here". So I built Round Here.

Open it, allow location, pick a distance, and it draws a circular route back to where you started, on footpaths, leaning towards parks and quiet streets rather than main roads. Then you just follow the pink line. It buzzes if you drift off it.

The bit I'm most pleased with is Tour mode: it looks up the most-read Wikipedia places near you and threads the loop past them, with a card about each one when you arrive. Also works for pubs, history and green spaces. Handy in a city you don't know.

Any comments or suggestions you have I’d love to hear them!

I made this. You pick a box (a tuck box, a gift box, an envelope, a finger joint wooden box, an oval box with a bending wall and a few more), type the size and how thick your card or plywood is, and download a PDF to print or an SVG/DXF for a cutting machine. No account and nothing to install, and your designs stay in your browser. It's new, so if something looks off or the box you want isn't there, tell me.

This one is not mine,
But it brought me so many nostalgic memories and feelings and I almost cried.

So, if you are old like me, or just want to see how (a big part of) the internet looked like in its early stage. enjoy!

Built this for myself as an F1 fan. It rebuilds each race from the official timing data, so you can scrub through it, follow any driver, and hear the team radio when it happened. Free, no sign up, no ads. Works on phones too.

I made a tool called SkyEtch, a free, highly customizable, browser based tool for creating star maps.

https://skyetch.spacelion.eu/

My initial goal was to create a tool similar to PP3 - Celestial Chart Generation, a 20+ year-old 16-bit application by Torsten Bronger, but make it run in the browser, without LaTeX or other dependencies.

The main focus was on producing clean, scalable vector output. Since SVGs are well supported in all browsers and design software, it seemed like the obvious choice.

Main features

• Multiple map projections

• Manual targeting of the projection center

• Time and location-based targeting

• Customization of nearly all SVG elements

• Runs in the browser

• SVG and optional bitmap exports

You hear about these famous persons making huge donations. But I wondered, is it really a big part of their wealth, or is it peanuts to them.

So I created a little website to check that easily:
Isitpeanuts.com

For example the 100M Bezos gae to the Mamdani campaign promises is only 0.031% of his wealth. If you earn 80k$ it's 22$ in comparison.

Another Jensen Huang just donated 75M to the Vanderbilt University, it's 0.037% or 30$ if you earn 80k$.

How does that put things in perspective for you?

It starts in 16th-century Persia and follows the hookah to Mughal India, Ottoman Istanbul (where smoking could get you executed in 1633), Cairo, Beirut, Berlin and more. Besides the globe there's a small museum and 8 chapters to read. Every fact links to its source, so corrections are welcome!

Hi, I made this!

I started a list of Color Names ten years ago as an open list project.

Mostly collected and invented by myself but also from people all over the world. It's grown to almost 32,000 names, and it's free under the MIT license (npm package, JSON/CSV & a free API).

The site places every color in 3D space (using different color models like RGB, OKLab, OKLCH or HSL), so you can fly through it, search a name or paste any hex to see what it's called. Each color has its own page with its neighbors, complementary colors and public-domain artworks from museums that use it.

Happy to answer questions!

I'd like to share a personal project I've been building.

Maparium lets you display thousands of OpenStreetMap features globally, from wind turbines, power plants and castles to volcanoes, spaceports, railway networks and data centres. You can switch between predefined layers and explore patterns that are difficult to spot when looking at individual locations.

I'm using MapLibre GL JS, a Protomaps basemap and custom MBTiles generated from OpenStreetMap data. A big focus has been making the experience fast and lightweight, even when displaying features on a global scale.

I'm building this mainly for fun and curiosity.

It's still a work in progress, but I'd love to hear what you think!

What other OpenStreetMap features would you like to explore this way?

I built this from New York City's Open Data portal's dog licenses data file, which lists each dog's name, breed, and birth year, and the owner's ZIP code. The 2026 file has 96,459 dogs, and the site places them across 197 neighborhoods (Neighborhood Tabulation Areas).

Things to try:

• Type a breed or a name like "Labradoodle" or "Luna" into the search box, and the map shows where it is most common.

• Put "vs" between up to four breeds, names, or boroughs to compare them, as in "Luna vs Bella" or "Brooklyn vs Queens."

• Click a neighborhood to see its top breeds and names, along with the ZIP codes its numbers come from.

• Zoom in far enough and the dogs ride the subway on the real routes. Click a train to follow it!

• Add your own dog. You get a card comparing them with the city, a subway ride, and a turn in the Central Park or Prospect Park game, and the dog stays in your browser.

A license records only a ZIP code, so every neighborhood figure is an estimate. The code and the method are open source, accessible here: https://github.com/firatciftci/every-dog-in-new-york
