QF STEM Ledger – Logging Structured Cognitive Work
by bamborde_zaiku·Feb 27, 2026·1 point·0 comments
AI Analysis
●●SolidNiche GemBig Brain
Proof-linked STEM work ledger, but solves a problem most builders don't know they have.
Strengths
- •Proof-linking verifiable artifacts (repos, papers, DOIs) adds credibility beyond self-reported claims.
- •Time-windowed snapshots create a structured signal for hiring or collaboration without exposing all work.
- •Private-by-default with explicit opt-in respects researcher concerns about idea theft or scooping.
Weaknesses
- •Unclear if this justifies yet another identity/credibility system—academia already has CVs, publications, GitHub.
- •Landing page doesn't show live examples or use cases; hard to imagine real adoption without seeing it in action.

Target Audience

Post Description
I built a tool to log structured cognitive work, including proofs rebuilt from first principles, research notes drafted, and concepts properly mastered, after noticing that serious technical effort is rarely recorded in any structured way.
Curious to hear what HN thinks.
