From Logfiles to Slack: How I Automated Our Daily Error Digest

·13 views

Every morning, for way too long, my first real “work” task wasn’t building or designing. It was sifting through error logs. Our staging environment, our production servers – both spitting out their daily complaints, just waiting for me to manually poke around. It was a chore, pure and simple, and one I utterly despised. See, running a small setup, you wear all the hats.

OneInbox: a fine-tuned 4B model that reads my inbox so I don't have to

What I Built OneInbox is a daily email digest that sorts my inbox into four buckets: Action required: needs a reply, or has a deadline within 7 days Worth a look: useful, but nothing to do FYI: receipts, confirmations, security notices Noise: promos, newsletters, social The idea came from a complaint in a hackathon Discord about how tiring it is to keep checking inboxes. I have the same problem, so I built it for my own inbox. The core is a LoRA fine-tune of Qwen3.5-4B (Apache 2.0).

StudySprint

This is a submission for the Hacktoberfest Weekend Challenge: Build for a Friend I built StudySprint, a collaborative study planner web application designed specifically for a friend who is currently tackling a heavy load of university coursework.

BreakMyQuery: find the row that breaks your SQL

BreakMyQuery: find the row that breaks your SQL This is a submission for the Hacktoberfest Weekend Challenge: Build for a Friend. I built BreakMyQuery for a colleague(also a friend🫠) who is a new graduate hire and is struggling with SQL joins or let's say he's scared of SQL joins. A query can pass the sample data while quietly dropping a customer who has no orders. For someone learning joins, seeing the missing customer gives them a concrete place to start investigating. BreakMyQuery offers eight SQLite exercises covering joins, NULLs, aggregation, ties, arithmetic, dates, and anti-joins.

Study Tracker

This is a submission for the Hacktoberfest Weekend Challenge: Build for a Friend I built StudyBuddy — a focused, aesthetic, all-in-one study companion designed for my friend Maya, who is preparing for intense software engineering certification exams while juggling a full-time job. Maya was constantly struggling with cognitive fragmentation: She used one app for a Pomodoro timer (filled with intrusive ads and subscription banners). Another app for flashcards (which charged monthly fees just to generate quizzes from decks). A messy notebook to track her daily study streaks. Constant switching be
