Updated February 6, 2025

I write speculative fiction that’s drawn from the darkness: brooding fantasy, dystopian science fiction, horrors both terrestrial and cosmic. Briarcliff ---------- `Working title // Work in progress` A moody horror short about one man’s desperate sacrifice to a prehistoric supernatural force. This piece is an experiment in narrative by elision, drawing inspiration from video games’ heavy use of environmental storytelling. The Deep -------- `Working title // Work in progress` A cosmic horror short about a deep sea salvage dive that encounters a threat beyond human understanding, and a secret organization that will do anything to keep that threat hidden. This piece is a claustrophobic katabasis into the deep, filled with interpersonal tension, existential dread, and even (somehow) malevolent mathematics.

Ideas ----- _Ideas, concepts, planned projects._ Last updated: January 27, 2025 My brain is really good in producing new ideas and sometimes obsessing over them for a short while. Usually though, the ideas will never come to fruition, so this page documents at least some of them for later. If you look through this list and one of the ideas stands out to you, please push my motivation by telling me about it. Even more so if you want to collaborate! Create/Build/Implement a/an... ------------------------------ * Fetching bookmarks from Linkding via API key on every build of this page * Events page for Vuejs events, similar to events.vuejs.org, but with a focus on discoverability * Integrations for (imho) essential services into Vimb. This would be mainly bookmarks via Linkding, passwords via Bitwarden and tab/history sync (via FFSync). * Fediverse enabled Event hub, like Mobilizon, but with an UI similar to Luma.

Skip to content Ideas are everything. These are the ones I keep coming back to -------------------------------------------------------------- ### Civic 1. **Double the bounty for recycling bottles and cans –** This would effectively double the income some of our most vulnerable citizens make and hopefully have an environmental impact. To prove this I would like to weigh sanitation costs against redemption revenue 2. **Universal healthcare to spur entrepreneurship** – I have a theory that countries with universal or single payer healthcare start more businesses than ones that do not. Doesn’t mean correlation is causation but I’d like to weigh data from OECD to explore this more ### Business 1. **Calendar analytics** – I spend a tremendous amount of time in my calendar. I would love to pay for a service that looks at all my calendar appointments and tells me where I can improve. Heavily dependent on logging all activities   2. **Digital hygiene** – Students have driver’s ed, sex ed and spend years learning disciplines that will have slim to no impact on their professional success. I have talked to many educators who tell me how bullying and poor digital skills hurt the development of their students. I envision an info product or course that teaches kids healthy digital habits at an early age. Targeted to bullying prevention, safety, digital literacy and online research and productivity.  3. **Rideshare trip subsidies** – Retail is dying and there will be a fight to get consumers into stores. Dan Reich has a great concept for Native Advertising that any of the rideshare companies could easily implement 4. **Move/travel assistant** – nearly every time I have traveled one of my credit cards does not work because I forget to notify them. In 2020 I should be able to do this from one portal or dashboard.  ### Consumer 1. **bathroom hand dryer that sucks instead of blows** – “hand dryers suck in fecal matter and blow it all over your hands” I wonder if using a vacuum and maybe UV light would provide for a more hygienic experience.  2. “**Bartender’s base**” – Having planned and executed a variety of events these past few years I constantly found myself buying a variety of large bottles of mixers. I see an opportunity to build a bundle that includes fruit juice, soda, tonic, seltzer and water that is perfect for a small party. Could probably get more margin for the aggregation of it all into a 12 pack.  3. **Set of cards for all the holidays in a year + birthday**, condolences and blank ones – 100% stolen from this guy on twitter.  4. **Trash/recycling can with barcode scanner** – Likely in the kitchen and you’d need to scan before throwing things away but it would automatically populate to a grocery or shopping list.  5. **Frying pan with a trap door** – everytime I scoop something out of a pan I think there has to be a better way. Would require heavy engineering but imaging if you could pull a trap door and drop the food onto your plate.

##### Last updated on 28-10-2024 This is a public list of ideas that I would like to work on someday. This is a copy of the ideas note I have in my Obsidian vault, where I jot down interesting projects, concepts, and thoughts that I find intriguing and might want to explore in the future. Since it is not practically possible for anyone to work on every idea they have, I thought it would be better to make this note public so that someone else might build it someday. Ideas that I’m currently working on are crossed out and have been moved to my projects page. Against each idea, I’ve added a short description to provide more context. If you are interested in any of the ideas mentioned below and want to work on them or collaborate with me, feel free to contact me. In case any of the ideas already exist, please let me know, and I will cross them out with a backlink to the project. **A Search Engine for Personal Blogs**I’m unable to search for content in personal blogs on google or any other search engine. Kagi small web is there, but it’s not personal blog specific.**A World Travel Lottery**A lottery with the grand prize as a fully-expensed, world travel package to visit n countries across all continents**Cricket Guard Line Projector**If you watch cricket, you can see batsmen often marking guard lines against the stumps by asking the umpire. Why can’t we have a laser projection of the stumps controlled by the umpire with a remote?**A cheap running tracker**There are multiple running trackers that you can attach to shoes, like Stryd , but these are quite expensive. Why is it so hard to make cheaper running trackers?**A platform to read both sides of an argument.**A moderated platform where a dedicated page is present for popular topics, and people can read about both sides of the argument.**Indian News Aggregator with relevance**India is struggling with misinformation and rigged news. The magnitude is quite high, considering the huge population, the demographics, and the rising internet penetration. A platform like News Minimalist that removes clickbait titles and filters relevant news would be useful for India.**Global Fish Database in different languages**Fishnames are tricky if you travel around the world. Within a country itself, fish names would be different. A global database of fishnames in all different languages would be great!**Bookmark for Videos & Podcasts**I wish there was a tool to record a particular timestamp on a video or a podcast so that I can watch it from the saved timestamp when I resume, rather than scrolling and finding the time.**Strava for Writers**Strava is a great tool to track your activities. As a writer, such a tool would be great to see the number of words written every day and also get a sneak peek at others’ writings.**About Me Collection**I love reading the About Me sections of various personal blogs. A curated list of the best about pages would be cool.**Evergreen Hosting** People put a lot of effort into their blogs, and most often, after the person passes away, these blogs go obsolete. How about a service that you can pay for one-time or in installments, ensuring that your blog stays live forever? _Update: I wrote about in detail here .
