Hypernomicon
Hypertext-infused philosophy personal database software
Hypernomicon is a personal productivity/database application for researchers that combines structured note-taking, mind-mapping, management of files (e.g., PDFs) and folders, and reference management into an integrated environment that organizes all of the above into semantic networks or hierarchies in terms of debates, positions, arguments, labels, terminology/concepts, and user-defined keywords by means of database relations and automatically generated hyperlinks (hence ‘Hyper’ in the name). Hypernomicon keeps track of all these things in a highly structured, thoroughly indexed and user friendly relational database, automatically generates semantic hyperlinks between all of them, and presents this information in many different forms so that you are constantly informed of ways all of your information is related that you had not realized. -

Containerization (Apple)
Containerization is a Swift package for running Linux containers
This repository provides educational material and sample code that demystify how containerization works and how container components fit together in practice. It walks through the responsibilities of an image format, registry, and runtime, and shows how a minimal runtime can assemble an isolated process with the right filesystem view, environment, and entrypoint. The samples highlight security hardening considerations—such as process isolation, filesystem scoping, and least-privilege execution—so that containers are not just portable, but safer by default. Developers get a blueprint for taking standard container images and running them in a way that respects platform conventions, tooling, and policies. The emphasis is on clarity and standards alignment rather than building a production-grade engine, which makes the code ideal for learning and experimentation. -

PyTorch GAN Zoo
A mix of GAN implementations including progressive growing
PyTorch GAN Zoo is a comprehensive open research toolbox designed for experimenting with and developing Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) using PyTorch. The project provides modular implementations of popular GAN architectures, including Progressive Growing of GANs (PGAN), DCGAN, and an experimental StyleGAN version. It is built to support both researchers and developers who want to train, evaluate, and extend GANs efficiently across diverse datasets such as CelebA-HQ, FashionGen, DTD, and CIFAR-10. In addition to core GAN training, the repository includes tools for model evaluation, such as Inception Score and SWD metrics, as well as advanced features like GDPP for diverse generation and AC-GAN conditioning for class-specific synthesis. The framework also supports “inspirational generation,” enabling style or content transfer from reference images through pre-trained models. -

DeepMind Lab
A customizable 3D platform for agent-based AI research
DeepMind Lab is a 3D learning environment based on id Software's Quake III Arena via ioquake3 and other open source software. DeepMind Lab provides a suite of challenging 3D navigation and puzzle-solving tasks for learning agents. Its primary purpose is to act as a testbed for research in artificial intelligence, especially deep reinforcement learning. If you use DeepMind Lab in your research and would like to cite the DeepMind Lab environment, we suggest you cite the DeepMind Lab paper. To enable compiler optimizations, pass the flag --compilation_mode=opt, or -c opt for short, to each bazel build, bazel test and bazel run command. The flag is omitted from the examples here for brevity, but it should be used for real training and evaluation where performance matters. DeepMind Lab ships with an example random agent in python/random_agent.py which can be used as a starting point for implementing a learning agent. -

Hacker Laws
Laws, theories, principles and patterns useful to developers
Laws, Theories, Principles and Patterns that developers will find useful. There are lots of laws which people discuss when talking about development. This repository is a reference and overview of some of the most common ones. Principles and laws to follow such as: If a program is made up of two parts, part A, which must be executed by a single processor, and part B, which can be parallelised, then we see that adding multiple processors to the system executing the program can only have a limited benefit. It can potentially greatly improve the speed of part B - but the speed of part A will remain unchanged. Also, theories like The Broken Windows Theory, which suggests that visible signs of crime (or lack of care of an environment) lead to further and more serious crimes (or further deterioration of the environment). Conway's Law suggests that the technical boundaries of a system will reflect the structure of the organisation. These among others, are featured in this project. -

JSONLab
JSONLab: compact, portable, robust JSON/binary-JSON encoder
JSONLab is a free and open-source JSON/UBJSON/MessagePack encoder and decoder written in the native MATLAB language. It can be used to convert a MATLAB data structure (array, struct, cell, struct array, cell array, and objects) into JSON/UBJSON/MessagePack formatted strings and files, or to parse a JSON/UBJSON/MessagePack file into MATLAB data structure. JSONLab supports nearly all versions of MATLAB and GNU Octave (a free MATLAB clone). The development of JSONLab is currently funded by the US National Institute of Health (NIH) as part of the NeuroJSON project (data portal https://neurojson.io) under grant U24-NS124027. The goal of the NeuroJSON project is to develop scalable, searchable, and reusable neuroimaging data formats and data-sharing platforms. All data produced from the NeuroJSON project will be using JSON/Binary JData formats as the underlying serialization standards and the lightweight JData specification as a language-independent data annotation standard. -

google-play-scraper
Node.js scraper to get data from Google Play
Node.js module to scrape application data from the Google Play store. Retrieves the full detail of an application. Retrieves a list of applications from one of the collections at Google Play. Retrieves a list of apps that results of searching by the given term. Returns the list of applications by the given developer name. Given a string returns up to five suggestions to complete a search query term. Retrieves a page of reviews for a specific application. Returns a list of similar apps to the one specified.

PS-Drone
Programming a Parrot AR.Drone 2.0 with Python - The Easy Way
The PS-Drone-API is a full featured SDK, written in and for Python, for Parrot's AR.Drone 2.0. It was designed to be easy to learn, but it offers the full set of the possibilities of the AR.Drone 2.0, including Sensor-Data (aka NavData), Configuration and full Video-support. The video function is not restricted to mere viewing, it is also possible to analyze video images data using OpenCV2. Obviously, the PS-Drone is perfect for teaching purposes; however, even the requirements for professional purposes can be satisfied. PS-Drone comes with a tutorial, explaining its most important commands and the drone's most important sensor values. The examples are easy to understand for people with little programming experience. A full list of commands and a description of all sensor data is available in a detailed documentation. It took several months to create PS-Drone, so it would be nice to get some donations for further development (e.g. Parrot's Bebop) and as a appreciation. -
