Hello, my name is Nasir, I've previously been an embedded systems engineer and a software developer. I've been in the field for about 3 years, but I was an energy engineer for a few years before that. I have a masters of science in computer science and a bachelor's in mechanical engineering and willing to use the skills associated with either field. Please reach out over linkedin or my email!


I'm vibe coding a "social media engine."

Basically, I've noticed a bunch of social media protocols like ATProtocol, ActivityPub and Nostr are coming out and I think while having these protocols is a good idea, one thing limiting adoption is lack of differentiated social media sites on these protocols. Basically everyone keeps building twitter on a new protocol without offering anything novel. One bottleneck, I thought, is that there isn't a set of utilities to help build a new social network easily so everyone defaults to building twitter as an MVP. I wanted to make an engine, kind of like a game engine, but to make a custom social media for any particular protocol. Hypothetically this should make it so that development for these kinds of projects go way faster. Basically, like a very opinionated django rest framework. Hopefully developers will build more interesting, novel sites and increase adoption for these protocols


Sounds good

Email for details. Recently let go from an embedded systems engineering role. Open to pretty much anything, but I really want a role where I can get some exposure to what's been going on with ML and NLP lately. Need to future proof a bit, you know?


I kind of got back to looking at my newsbetting app called Rashomon. I posted about it on here a few weeks ago to no attention.

Basically you get untitled articles and have to bet whether they are from far left, left, center, right or far right sources. The idea was to maek readers aware of their biases. I wrote my findings here: https://nassharaf.github.io/ideasthete/projects/Rashomon.htm...

You can demo the site here: https://www.rashomonnews.com


I get this error when I try signing up.

Ok thanks for letting me know. I haven't encountered this before, but I appreciate you telling me about it. Thank you so much!!!


Sounds like an interesting concept.

Is there a demo account we can use to test it out? or maybe give 1 or 2 articles for free so people can get a feel of it and then have them setup an account after.


This is a great idea, I think I'll try that out and let you know. Good idea!!


Hello all,

I've written up a blog post about a website I made a few years ago called Rashomon. Rashomon was a "newsbetting" site where you could wager fake money on the political bias of a news article. I discussed my motivations and experience making this site and wrote up my amateur sociologist findings here. Let me know what you think!
