Ui is not working properly, especially in the Results section also add other language support. Overall it is good.

C++ CLI for folder encryption with AES-256-GCM and USB-based key loading

nextma — Thu, 28 May 2026 04:06:41 +0000

I built a Linux CLI tool that encrypts and decrypts folders using AES-256-GCM. It also hides file and folder names and stores the mapping in an encrypted file.

Built a custom CMD that loads commands at runtime using dynamic linking

nextma — Wed, 27 May 2026 14:21:18 +0000

In my second semester, I built this CMD out of curiosity about how a CMD can add new commands without recompiling. I used the OS’s dynamic linking mechanism to load new commands at runtime without recompiling the code.

Note: windows only

Nice. Do you also provide an API or middleware version of TokenAdvisor? Would be great to plug it in before LLM calls so prompts get optimized automatically in production.

They prefer AI music because it’s cheaper and more profitable than paying real artists. The concern is that real musicians may get pushed aside instead of being fairly paid.
