This is really cool! Really give a immersion vibe.

I've built something different, Tokyo Train Orchestra (http://tokyo-train-orchestra.netlify.app/) It uses live and scheduled tokyo train/subway timetable to produce music.

I don't like claude code web due to its lack of planning mode. I found the result is often lackluster compare to claude code cli.

My current setup: Tailscale + Terminus(ipad) + home machine(code base)

Need to look into how to work on multiple features at the same time next.

I wouldn't trust Zoho. More than 10 years ago, they shadowbanned (can not be shared or publicly viewed) my documents because it criticized Chinese communist party.

I'm building a information hub that utilize AI agents to compile all the relevant information from China (gov, econ, commerce, anything and everything). I call it "information domination". Heard many times that language barrier stops people having a better understanding of China. Now the LLM translation is good enough, and AI agents can do way more in information gathering stage. It's time to put things in practice.

For now, it only has a daily newsletter fully compiled by AI agents without any human intervention. I plan to add public listed companies (semiconductor, energy provider, etc) onto the platform. Already found lots of good data points that can be used by analysts, researchers or observers.

Do you have a benchmark for comparing different chunking methods? Your existing benchmark is to compare different libraries.

my project deals w/ non-english text, bm25 performance is middeling. Language specific sparse model helps.

Recently tested a (non-english) pdf ocr with Gemini 2.5 Pro. First, directly ask it to extract text from pdf. Result: random text blob, not useable.

Second, I converted pdf into pages of jpg. Gemini performed exceptional. Near perfect text extraction with intact format in markdown.

Maybe there's internal difference when processing pdf vs jpg inside the model.

Japan Top 100 (restaurants) app

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/japan-top-100/id6741251616

Only public on iOS store for now, due to Google requires larger # of testers to authenticate the app.

This app idea came from my last Japan trip. I had a hard time finding good local restaurants (not tourist traps). So I decided to build this app with Japanese-oriented lists, due to lists' lacked of maps, etc. The app actually helped me discover some great spots, since it lists places all over Japan. Please give it a try and let me know if you have any feature requests or ideas.

China's land area is approximately 25 times of Japan, def has a bigger network. But the top speed is comparable in current generations[1] except the Maglev.

Chromecast is actually super useful for my immigrants parents. Since some foreign languages' input method on remote is horrendous, Chromecast helps them selecting youtube video easily.
