i'm a software engineer based in the philippines, driven by curiosity and whatever i find interesting. i learn fast with the caveat of goldfish memory (which i call my context lol) and i'm usually self-motivated that i forget to eat.
this is not like other portfolios. feel free to have a look around and explore what makes me, me.

i enjoy writing code.
if ai solves every problem,
what's left?892 commits. the personal AI agent i've been trying to build since 2023 is finally becoming something i'm proud of.
one question usually turns into three projects and too many open tabs.
typescript, python, rust, go, infrastructure, and agents.
in roughly five weeks
an earlier role handled 2,000+ requests a day at 99.3% uptime.
i update this board whenever my attention changes, so it never settles into a final form.
how WFDs work, when to write one, the states a document can be in, frontmatter format, and the markdown features available.
my desktop is scattered screenshots, dozens of windows, half-finished checklists, and constant switching.
whatever feels urgent or interesting gets the whole pile.
right now, only this website and my ai work count as current.
did i mention this board evolves over time? you might find new stuff here next time. suggestions? email me.

i turned weeks of neuroscience papers into her memory system.
weave gives long-running agents memory, state tracking, and retrieval that can be inspected.
i watched a kdrama about a girl who forgets everything every morning and realized my AI agent has the same condition. so i built it a brain.
someone else is
on the other end.
i'm less interested in whether it's good.
ideally when something is coming up, whether it's work related or it's just a personal project of mine i usually let it run at the end because i need pressure to perform things.
diffusion models
i built an AI agent with persistent memory. now i need to figure out if it's remembering the truth or just what i wanted to hear.
AI makes me faster. It also might be making me dumber. I'm figuring out where the line is.

— cassiei got tired of finding LTO-accredited medical clinics through SEO slop and a government website that looks like it was built as a punishment. so i made a map.
atlas maps symbols, calls, tests, and history so developers and agents can ask structural questions about a repository.
2,239-trial benchmark across 8 OSS repos: Atlas beats a text-search baseline by +0.223 deterministic, +0.127 LLM-judge, at 42% fewer tokens.
orchestrator lets a local model read and control a live chromium page through the devtools protocol.

Looking for the app? this is the about page for the LTO medical clinic directory. take me back to the map.
this project is not affiliated with the Land Transportation Office or any government agency. it is an independent, community-driven tool built out of pure spite toward the existing options for finding accredited clinics.
if you need an LTO medical certificate in the Philippines, you need to visit an LTO-accredited medical clinic. finding one should be simple. it is not.
the official LTO website has a list. it's literally just a table: clinic name, accreditation number, expiry date. there are no addresses, no map, and no way to search. you can't tell if the clinic near you is still operating or expired three months ago. the data exists but it's presented like a spreadsheet someone forgot to close.
google maps isn't much better. search "LTO medical clinic near me" and you'll get a mix of accredited clinics, expired clinics, driving schools, and whatever else Google's algorithm decided was relevant. there's no way to filter by accreditation status or verify anything against the official list.
then there's the SEO slop. searching for "LTO accredited medical clinics" surfaces dozens of content farm pages that scrape the same outdated list into a blog post, surround it with ads, and call it a resource. half of them have clinics that closed years ago. some don't even have addresses.
so i built lto-clinics.ryanaque.com.
yes. it will always be free and ad-free. i built it because i needed it and figured other people might too.
if you want to support the project, follow me on twitter (@schmayterling) or github (@schmayterling). or just share it with someone who needs a medical certificate.
a map-based directory of LTO-accredited medical clinics in the Philippines. search by name or location, see what's nearby, check opening hours, get directions. that's it.
the interface is inspired by apple maps. clean, minimal, dark mode support. it runs on Next.js with Leaflet for the map layer and OpenStreetMap tiles. the clinic data is sourced from the official LTO list and cross-referenced with LTO memorandums for accreditation status.
the app can show clinics near you, but only if you let it. tapping "see nearby" triggers a browser location permission prompt. if you grant it, your coordinates are used to sort clinics by distance using the haversine formula and the closest ones appear at the top of the list.
your location never leaves your browser. the distance calculation runs entirely client-side. there's no server call, no analytics ping, nothing stored. the coordinates exist in memory for the duration of your session and that's it.
if you deny the permission or your browser doesn't support geolocation, the app works the same way it always does. you just search by name or browse the map manually. if you've previously granted location access, the app will use the cached permission on future visits without asking again.
each clinic card shows what's publicly available: opening hours, Google reviews, and accreditation status. this data comes from public sources and varies per clinic. some have full schedules and dozens of reviews, others have nothing beyond a name and accreditation number.
all three are subject to what's actually out there. if a clinic hasn't been reviewed or hasn't published its hours, there's nothing to show. the app doesn't fabricate data to fill gaps.
when you open a clinic's detail card, the app shows other accredited clinics in the area. if the one you're looking at is too far, has bad reviews, or just isn't what you need, you can see alternatives without going back to search.
the nearby list is sorted by distance from the clinic you're viewing, not from your location. it answers "what else is around here" rather than "what's closest to me."
the clinic list is compiled from lto.gov.ph/medical-clinics/ and verified against official LTO memorandums. each clinic entry includes the name, address, accreditation number, and opening hours where available.
this is a community-driven directory. the data is verified against official sources on a best-effort basis, but clinics open, close, and change details regularly. if something looks wrong, report it.
the reporting system is baked into the app. reports are not public by default. your email is linked to your submissions for accountability and follow-up, but isn't visible to other users.
there are two entry points for reports:
from search results: the first item in the search list is always "add a missing location." tap it, fill in the details, and submit. this creates a GitHub issue tagged as a missing location report.
from a clinic's detail card: every clinic has a "report location" button. tapping it gives you three options:
| report type | when to use |
|---|---|
| this location has missing information | hours, address, or other details are incomplete |
| this location has incorrect information | something listed is wrong |
| this location does not exist | the clinic has closed or was never real |
after selecting a type, you'll be asked for your email (for follow-up if needed) and a text field to explain the issue. submitting creates a GitHub issue with the clinic's name, accreditation number, report type, and your details.
there are anti-spam measures in place. your email is linked to every report you submit. abuse the system and you will be rate limited or banned.
the directory is only as good as its data. the baseline comes from the LTO's own published list and memorandums. beyond that, it depends on community reports.
i can't guarantee every clinic is still open or that every detail is current. what i can guarantee is that every report is tracked, and the data is updated as reports come in.
if you find something wrong, report it. that's the whole mechanism.
there is none. the app doesn't use analytics, telemetry, or any third-party tracking scripts. if you run into an issue or have feedback, email me directly at hey@ryanaque.com and i'll get back to you.
probably not. the data pipeline relies on scraping government websites, and open-sourcing the scraping logic would make it trivial for the source to block it. publishing how you bypass rate limits and parse specific page structures is essentially handing the target a checklist of what to patch. the data staying accurate matters more to me than the code being public.
the app itself is at lto-clinics.ryanaque.com and always will be free regardless.
yes. the layout adapts between desktop and mobile. on mobile, the search panel sits at the bottom as a sheet and nearby clinics stack vertically. on desktop, it's a sidebar with a wider map view.
both use dvh units because safari's address bar likes to lie about viewport height.
the app is at lto-clinics.ryanaque.com.
