"hyper hackathon" or "who's got code?"

Core idea:
Make hackathons into seed funding, and investment rounds
All attendees are investors for 100 usd (ticket price) %15 of company.

100 people attending? = 10,000 usd
finalist 1 teams get 5k usd at a baseline.

In tournament style elimination, each round of hackathon teams get whittled down to two remaining teams.

They get half a month. to prove out their idea with paid support. hire contractors, buy materials, order pcbs, rent servers, everything.

if they get to product market fit before the time is up. They get the prize money.

attendees win: high probability their money gets into a winning startup.

Example:
The event attendance is 100 people x 100 usd/ticket = 10,000 usd

There are 5 brackets:
1) 1000x ideas are collected from the public. (voted like hacker new up/down) (winning idea gets small share %) ONLINE
2) 200x people spend 2 hours making pitch decks. ONLINE
3) 30x core teams get 24 hours to create a prototype (normal hackathon) (IN PERSON)
4) 5x core team + specialists from losing rounds get 14 days to refine their  prototype, + receive $1000 for professional branding, mentorship, and support. (1/2 of $1000) IN PERSON
5) 1x winner: they get the full $5,000 + assistants with boring stuff like  LLC setup help, tax,accountant, advisors etc. IN PERSON

Why is it unique:
- Investors win: high-probability bet startups early, 1 in a million ideas
- Attendees win: chance at $5000 and funding to go make their startup idea work
- Everyone wins: Losers money is on the winning team, and Losers win by joining winning teams as specialist, ensuring all participants can get involved

If you do a hyper hackathon PLEASE INVITE ME! ill help you do it.

heres how i connected to llmstudio via a client app on android.

PREREQUISIT:

• zerotier
• PC with nvida graphics card

i needed to run lmstudio server

lms server start --port 3000

important step. you need to give lm studio server access to connect over the network

click serve on local network

test to see if it works

in my case its

http://169.254.83.107:3000

success

Now switch over to your android phone, download Anythingllm

AnythingLLM - Apps on Google Play

Your private, on-device AI agent and assistant.

Apps on Google PlayMintplex Labs Inc

pro tip: to avoid downloading a local model, turn off cellular and wifi then open app

after downloading open settings

select lmstudio from the list of providers

now enter the address (zerotier ideally) with the port for my example it was 10.182.223.130:3000

TIP: if nothing pops up in the model selection. check to see if you enabled "serve on local network" from within lmstudio

Enjoy your localllm freedom!

exploring writing on custom os that only does writing. NOTHING ELSE. no destractions.

review of

writerdeckOS

A Writer Deck Operating System

writerdeckOS

biggest gripes:

• its super OLD feeling.
• no mouse support.
• no select.
• no google drive support

I wish it could just be a version of vscode. :/

or this https://wisehackermonkey.github.io/text-processor-react/

micro-journal by unkyulee

review

• installing is more manual
• weird requirment for non ETCHER or rufus . weird.

the install process

go to here

Releases · unkyulee/micro-journal-linux

Contribute to unkyulee/micro-journal-linux development by creating an account on GitHub.

GitHubunkyulee

download the "pc" version

download the imageUSB software and point it at the .bin file example "microjournal.PC.2025.11.bin"

https://github.com/unkyulee/micro-journal-linux/blob/main/debian-live.md

unplug usb. power off your pc and reboot with the usb plugged in.

Its very similar. but differs in the approach.
learning curve for sure.

Update:

It's kinda awesome.

I really love the solution for dragging final text docs to the computer it has a simple script that makes a "filebrowser" service that you open on your computer with 192.168.1.Xxx:8080

Very nice.

I feel like having a tutorial would be helpful.

Only issue I've found so far is if you remove it without running the safe remove script

The PC it's running on won't be able to shut off without a hard power down.

Which. Just. Feels. WRONG.

otherwise it just feels like a stripped down debian install with some thoughtful scripts and minimal tools

I had a exiting vim moment.

ALT-G to show hints

CTRL-q Is how you exit the editor.

This is designed more for making daily notes which I like. And are stored in the

Micojournal/documents/

With a YYYY-MM-DD.TXT format very good 😊

Only issue I wish I had the ability to select multiple characters. Learning curve there

But for just writing prose I'm good

One big thing it needs to get boring for me to start writing.

I don't want to get excited about other buttons and stuff.

TODO:
make a os that runs a slimmed down version of vscode. called Monaco Editor

• adds google drive backup.
• simple file system
• support for usb plugin and drag
• button for SYNC to backup

Found this cool map. Well listening to a story about the checkerboard problem of US land getting granted to railroads

99% invisible podcast

the map!

Interesting how some of the "public land' is owned by ranchers

For example here is Audubon canyon ranch

https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g33128-d2470054-Reviews-Audubon_Canyon_Ranch-Stinson_Beach_Marin_County_California.html

Or something like this

Thought 💭 🤔

What are the weird public land which is not commonly known about that is "open" to the public

Try it out here Link:

YouTube Hidden Video Search Generator

How to use: 

Select a pattern

I recommend starting with "IMG XXXX"

click

"Generate", then "Search YouTube".

If nothing interesting appears, "generate" and "search youtube" again!

just another fun little project. enjoy!

PS: im using this really cool project that allows you to generate random text strings using regex but instead of finding strings your generating them. very great for making complex strings

Found this video about this paper called

Simulating Time in Square-Root Space by Ryan Williams

https://eccc.weizmann.ac.il/report/2025/017/

Key insite it uses properties of numbers to compute the values of things and store them in one step

My thoughts 🤔 💭

I'm curious if the possibility of creating a compiler that implements this space-saving technique for pre-compiled programs. Or at compile time

Possible use cases are machine learning. Crunching large machine learning models into simple small programs.

Basically any program that can get smaller.

This is potentially a huge result

Call to action

Programmers get on this. I want a program I can enter in my code and it spits out a better smaller compiled program.
