Choose articles or atlas data as the root operator for the plan.
Combine content rows with their translations or atlas metadata.
Apply category and language predicates before sorting.
Order the result set and keep the final page-sized rows.
Fetch posts, translations, cover images, and publish dates by category and language for homepage cards.
Problem-Sized Builds
A Python CLI that turns text-based PDF documents into structured PowerPoint summary decks. The pipeline extracts PDF text, normalizes noisy content, chunks long documents, summarizes with an LLM, validates outlines with Pydantic, and renders .pptx files with python-pptx.
A personal web project that turns gift-giving scenarios into an interactive experience, with practice across product thinking, interface design, frontend implementation, and deployment.
For Future Review
PDFtoPPT is a local-first Python CLI that turns text-based PDF documents into structured PowerPoint summary decks.
This article is dedicated to documenting the post links from the Facebook group "Science Maker." Each link showcases the results of observations made using scientific tools designed by the Science Maker community. To encourage the use of scientific tools for observation, members can earn SciSpot points by sharing their observation results. These points can be redeemed for small gifts or used to access community skills.
Because of a single sentence, I ended up watching all of Attack on Titan on Netflix. The experience was truly overwhelming, so I wanted to capture this emotion in words. Along with images generated in Midjourney (so it’s normal if the characters look different), this serves as a reminder for my future self.
Back in college, I had a friend from the social work department who loved making desserts. That’s how I first discovered a sweet treat called meringue. Its melt-in-your-mouth texture left a lasting impression on me, so I wanted to try making it myself. After doing some research, I realized the process is actually quite simple and perfect for making at home. It only requires two ingredients. So, after borrowing a stand mixer and a piping tip, I bought the ingredients and started DIY baking!
Gathered Over Time
A collection of instruments, modules, software tools, and activity context from the Sci-Maker community, organized as an explorable knowledge entry.
A visual reference for common aquatic organisms found in ornamental fish and shrimp tanks, built from photos, classification, and observation records.
Yearly observation and point-collection records that preserve field context, time-based notes, and a searchable index for later review.
