When our daughter was born in December we needed to log diapers, feedings, etc.

We tried a bunch of apps, which were good, but overkill for what we needed.

I spent the last few weeks building Poopyfeed to scratch our own itch – and I'm pretty proud of it.

It's made our lives a lot easier and helped my wife, grandparents, and I stay in sync.

It's very important to my wife and I that this project doesn't require people create an account, and stays completely free. It's a little attempt to put something good and helpful into the world.

I built this using a React Native (Expo) mobile app (iOS only for now) and Elixir + Phoenix backend. I use Phoenix Channels heavily for real-time sync of breastfeeding, pumping, and napping timers (backed by GenServers + a DynamicSupervisor).

This is just a beta build so you have to download it via TestFlight, but I'd love any feedback from the community to make improvements before submitting it to the App Store.

How was interviewing back when the bubble burst in the early 2000s?

Was it anywhere near as bad as it is now?

I've been compiling papers on Physical AI — the intersection of foundation models and robotics. This covers Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models like RT-2 and π₀, world models (DreamerV3, Genie 2, JEPA), diffusion policies, real-world deployment and latency problems, cross-embodiment transfer, scaling laws, and safety/alignment for robots.

The field has exploded in the past 18 months. We went from "lets try llms on robotics" to having so many dimensions to optimize for. so felt right to maintain a running list of resources.

Organized by: foundations → architectures → action representations → world models → learning paradigms → deployment → applications.

Contributions welcome — especially corrections and missing papers.

We’re organizing a Founders Fight in San Francisco on May 2.

This is not an exhibition and not a gimmick. It’s a real boxing match, with real training, real stakes, and a crowd.

We’re looking for founders who want a hard challenge and are willing to train seriously starting by Feb 8. Boxing is unforgiving. You’ll get humbled fast. That’s the point.

Why do this? Most founders miss having something that’s purely physical, terrifying, and binary: you either show up prepared or you don’t. No pitch decks. No spin.

Details: – SF/Bay Area-based founders – Structured training program at The Park Gym – Matched opponents – May 2 fight night – Limited spots

If this sounds insane but compelling, you’re probably the right person.

For a few years I’ve steadily pushed 15-30 PRs per month.

I have started to try out AI a lot more for a few months, using it for almost everything. How many PRs in January so far? 4. Even when I have had slumps in the past, I have not performed this bad.

I think was having fun before and not anymore. It doesn’t help that I have to review AI-generated PRs now. It doesn’t seem like a serious job for adults anymore and I feel a bit mentally drained.

What are your stats?
