Hey HN! Y’all are great. It is so fun to build things these days.I wanna show off this archive that I conjured to run at home for consuming the recently releases of UFO files from the US government. This started as a Mac Mini-hosted project that I executed with my OpenClaw over Discord. After showing this to a few friends, I decided to get it online and find a catchy domain. Cloudflare was the perfect hosting choice.There’s a lot of bonkers things out there going on, so I added human curated “Signals” - news, analysis and discussion of UFO and adjacent news. The backlog of signals was informed by the links shared between myself and my first tech boss. We have both seen things that these files help confirm.As part of a reason to bring people back, I asked my assistant to do some digging into the data and come up with “Insights”, a dedicated section on the site that includes the responsible LLM in the byline. There a media pipeline for these insights using Remotion to generate social-media ready videos that I can upload to TT, IG, and YouTube.I built this for fun. Mostly with Ollama-powered GLM 5.1. Runs on Cloudflare Workers, D1, R2. Keyboard navigation within the doc viewer is blazing fast. OpenClaw is my CMS.Eventually, I hope to find some passive revenue through ethical ads if I get enough traffic. I think there is an audience for this. Right now, this is helpful with sharing the WTFs (and psyops) of the world with friends.Hit me up with questions!Stay rad, HN!
