I’m between projects this weekend and apparently my brain doesn’t know how to relax.

My son is 11, autistic, mildly dyslexic, loves video games, and is extremely motivated by earning money. I was trying to figure out how to keep a little structure in his summer without turning it into summer school.
What started as “maybe I should make him do 20 minutes of typing” somehow turned into me building a full HTML app.

It now has:
A “Kid Bank” that tracks money earned
Goal tracking (Minecraft, Robux, Lego, etc.)
Typing quests
Reading quests
Story writing quests
Dad challenges
Adventure bonuses for things like kayaking, swimming, board games, and having friends over
Achievement badges
A story vault
A summer activity log
The funny thing is that I think I enjoyed building it more than he enjoys using it.

Parenting has a weird way of making you spend 6 hours solving a problem that could have been solved with a piece of paper and a sticker chart.

Curious what other parents have come up with.

What started as a simple summer incentive somehow turned into a full-blown RPG for an 11-year-old.

Its simple stupid it works…

For the first time ever I had a reason to use the OpenAI agent for something legit.

I was lazy and wanted to repost my reddit post. I was able to use agent, the copy and paste of the post and my password/login for Craigslist.

It inferred a bunch about where from its knowledge of me and nailed it.

I am impressed.

\[LFM\] Will mix your project for free! Looking to sharpen my skills on new genres

I’m an engineer looking to expand my portfolio and sharpen my mixing chops. I’ve realized that the best way to grow is to work on "real-world" tracks from talented artists rather than just using generic practice stems.

I’m looking for:

• Full Multitracks: If you have a song recorded but aren't sure how to get it to that "radio-ready" level, I’d love to take a crack at it.

• Live Sessions: If you’ve done a live-off-the-floor recording or a board tape with individual tracks, I enjoy the challenge of managing bleed and space.

• Any Genre: I’m comfortable with anything from Lo-fi and Indie to Metal or EDM.

How it works:

1. You send me your raw, consolidated WAV stems (no processing/FX unless they are essential to the sound).

I’m looking to take on 2 or 3 projects this week to start. If you’re interested, comment below or shoot me a DM with a link to a demo or a description of your sound!

Let’s make something sound great.

I have many tracks I can show you!
