Hewlberno··on Measure your medication against your symptoms for ADHD
Hey everyone!

Michael from Moodmap here.

ADHD can be measured to some degree with the QB test https://adhdtest.moodmap.app/qbtest.html .

It can be measured far better with newer research, in ways that are more ecologically valid.

https://adhdtest.moodmap.app/pupildetect.html

And the pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) of the drugs that impact ADHD can be measured against those symptoms.

https://adhdtest.moodmap.app/medicationandefficacy.html

I was working on this when I first got diagnosed with ADHD, ASD and C-PTSD around 2 years ago. I took a break from the project while dealing with some personal stuff, and honestly just getting distracted and taking too much LSD, and learning a lot about hypnotherapy.

I'm back because - nothing has really been done to really properly validate these categorical illnesses and the drugs we use to maintain our mental wellness, as opposed to bandaids we don't understand to treat mental illness.

Looking to get some feedback, and really understand how these bloody drugs piercing my blood brain barrier WORK!

Hewlberno··on Google Quantum AI
The lack of knowledge and ignorance of quantum computing in this thread is incredible.

Quantum computers do exist.

They are extremely useful and do things that digital computers cannot do. Categorically cannot.

The cynicism in this thread is crazy

Hey everyone,

I ahve adhd. built this out a year or so ago, and thought I'd begin makign it into something usable for people.

Love some feedback :)

Hewlberno··on Give YouTube lectures sick AI gen music backing tracks with linktunes
LinkTunes takes any content, starting with youtube lectures, and generates music to match it. Think of a boring physics lecture, and then imagine it being taught by Joe Rogan to Daft Punk beats syncronised to make dry content into memetic earworms.

Hewlberno··on Launch HN: Danswer (YC W24) – Open-source AI search and chat over private data
Hi guys! I recently deployed your open source product for a client - great code.

One thing I personally see expanding is document generation. This involves a tailored Q and A generation pipeline, specific RAG and the use of knowledge graphs and ontologies down the line.

I’m curious as to how you are going to towards that very clear future and therefore stay ahead of copilot as an example.

Hewlberno··on Imagine mixing beats with just a wave of your hand. Synthy
The Fun Parts: Synthy uses Computer Vision, to let users use there hands to mix music, and GenAI to generate beats / songs. 1⃣ Far higher fidelity for controlling the music with your hands 2⃣ Mix, and match, the right beats, to your audience. 3⃣ This is actually sort of fun.

Been playing around with these sorts of tools, thought it may be of interest to the hackernews crew, i'll make a youtube vidyah demonstrating it :)

Hey everyone!

One of my colleagues, Peter, has been building out this open source library to help people using Golang do 2D geometry without any bugs!

I thought anyone that is keen to do GIS efficiently would be keen to see this -

Cheers!

Hewlberno··on Ask HN: How can a unhireable person get a job?
Your message reminds me of myself at your age. I took a long time to learn to be humble to see my flaws, which allowed others to appreciate my strengths. Keep hustling, but hustle with more empathy
Hewlberno··on My startup failed, then I found out I was unemployable
Just putting it out there. Windows is a bad dev environment. Learning basic sql and basic coding tests is sort of expected. Honestly I'm not sure if it was the interviewers that were being narcissistic given the broad brush strokes you paint with. What do you think they're perspective actually was?
Hewlberno··on [dead]
Hi everyone!

I built https://moodmap.app/ originally around the issues I had to work through when managing my ASD and ADHD. There's still a lot of work to do, I think it's pretty neat so far though.

Love to answer any questions and talk to anyone who wants to give me there own thoughts on how they manage ADHD or how they use nootropics in general!

Hit me up at https://calendly.com/moodmapapp and we can have a chat.

I've been a bit all over the place over the past 2 months with getting a new job - but i feel like I'm getting more of what I want this to be together :)

Just as a background into Moodmap. I want to try and make ADHD easier to understand, and nootropics to do with concentration measurable. In general I want to see if i can build a tool to help myself with ADHD and therefore others.

Privacy is also really a key aspect of doing this. I am trying to implement SOLID and follow best practices outside of this.

Lots of bugs and things to iron out over time, trying to build everything in the open to see what people think (and because I enjoy the feedback!!!)

Hewlberno··on ADHD and ASD Medication Efficacy Algorithm. Built for myself, now expanding it
Hi everyone!

I built https://moodmap.app/ originally around the issues I had to work through when managing my ASD and ADHD. There's still a lot of work to do, I think it's pretty neat so far though.

It uses ML, NLP and gamification to help with treatment. You take care of yourself, you get a spirit animal based on your personality type computed by the app, then it gets levels and then you get paid money for having taken care of yourself (working out a funding mechanism ASAP, almost there).

In terms of how I want to manage privacy, which I think is ridiculous important in building a tool like this, I am trying to implement SOLID (https://inrupt.com/solid) as a way to make sure any data that is used is completely under the control of the people who need the tool.

Lots of bugs and things to iron out over time, trying to build everything in the open to see what people think (and because I enjoy the feedback!!!)

Love to answer any questions !

This ML algorithm is still a work in progress in terms of it having a high degree of accuracy for ritalin efficacy treatment, over the next week I should have it being incredibly accurate :D

Hi everyone!

I am using a variety of different ML methods, and as the product evolves I expect those methods to evolve with it. I am hyper focused on solving the big problems that I, and those like me, have to deal with when testing medication and managing mental health with ADHD and ASD.

Love to answer any questions and appreciate any feedback~! !

Hewlberno··on Moodmap – Automated Mood Tracking
Hi everyone!

My names Michael and I created moodmap.

In 2019 I found out I have ADHD and ASD. I built a tool for myself in that process to help me keep track of my mental state and the effectiveness of my medication.

I am launching the alpha test of that same tool for other people to use tomorrow!

It harnesses a variety of AI tools, as well as user input of mood, substances and exercise.

On privacy,

I believe the key thing, to me, with these sorts of applications is the balance between needing data to create great tools and agency over peoples own data.

I want to enable users to own there own data, and for me to just use it if they let me (if that makes sense, sort of like a cypto wallet for health data).

I will be using https://forum.solidproject.org/ and a few other solutions in the next few weeks as a new backend towards this goal. Although still trying to understand the best way to do this!

Appreciate your time!
