great-ideas

This is a repository where I keep ideas that one day will become reality.

• synthetic web traffic generator for privacy hardening

I plan to install a Raspberry Pi in my local network and send traffic to the internet using it. The idea is to generate syntethic traffic that will confuse tracking 'algorithms' and harden the privacy of the devices in my local network.

• platform for commenting and annotating research papers

I plan to create a web platform containg a big database of research papers that can be viewed by anyone. On this platform everybody can comment a paragraph or a sentence of the paper so that people who have a hard time understanding the paper can review the comments.

• platform for connecting researchers and target groups

I plan to create a web platform were researchers can post an announcement as: 'We are X and search for N people to help us testing our research hypothesis on.' Anybody interested can join in any number of research announcements.

• C struct reflection

I plan to write a script that will take as input a C structure and return a function that will print the structure in the form of:

struct foo
~~ a = 1 (int)
~~ b = 2 (char)
~~ c = 0xffffffff (struct bar *)

• Linux submodules graph dependency

I plan to write a program that will analyze the structure of the Linux kernel (or any other C program for that matter) and create a dependency graph between the files from each submodule.

• Platform for commenting research papers that are in development

Why would someone want to comment on an in-development research paper? Maybe because they want to help, or they want to see what people are working on? However I plan to create a platform where people can upload their in-development research papers and other people can comment on them with constructive feedback (assumming that they have the best intentions).

• fopen that opens web links

It would be cool that fopen(3) could receive a link as input and return a FILE * as output. PHP's fopen already does that.

• text editor plugin that opens all functions called by current function
