Writing

100 days. 100 projects. One LLM prompt at a time.

Each post here is a project built with AI assistance — browser extensions, bots, tools, dashboards, analyzers. Some took an afternoon. Some fought back. All of them taught me something about what these tools are actually good at, and where they fall short.

The rule: build something real, ship it, write about it honestly.

Create A Browser App - for visualising music #

  • Music visualiser app insipired by [Justin’s WinAmp]( It really kicks the llama’s ass :-)
  • LLM used: Claude. Had used Gemini for Day1 (browser addon).

Prompt Used #

Create an interactive browser app which can visualize music, audio. Use X,Y,Z axis for visualization, of the music, with customizable effects like trippy, colours, waterfall. This was a feature available in Winamp.

Two big ideas here #

  • Idea#1: Use an LLM, to create something, anything
  • Idea#2: Do it for a 100 days
  • A third, meta idea, is to write about what I’ve done (aside: why is this a meta-idea, will write about it later)

Today’s vibe-coding idea: create a browser extension for a URL sanitizer. #

It removes all tracking parameters from the link before rendering it in a new tab. Tool of choice: Gemini - got this idea from S Ananand’s talk

Interesting Insight #

Came across an interesting insight on the Risky.Biz podcast.

In the example discussed in the podcast Episode #824, this was mentioned in the GreyNoise newsletter, which noted a total drop in telnet traffic.

Apparently, a vulnerability in the telnet protocol is likely to drop soon. And the service providers have probably been nudged into blocking all Telnet traffic.
