Spell checking for python. Used in a bot already. Interesting to bounce against the Perer Norvig's famous spell checking algorithm. http://norvig.com/spell-correct.html

[TailorDev/Watson](https://github.com/TailorDev/Watson)

Command line tool to keep track of projects! Something I've wanted to keep track of productivity. in Python

[Melissa-AI/Melissa-Core](https://github.com/Melissa-AI/Melissa-Core)

Bot. Uses Google's speech-to-text. In Python.

[angr/angr](https://github.com/angr/angr)

binary analysis framework. Hacking ish. Be cool to learn assembly better. Python

[ValveSoftware](https://github.com/ValveSoftware/openvr)

VR is cool. This is how you make VR.

[zzw922cn/AutomaticSpeech_Recognition](https://github.com/zzw922cn/Automatic_Speech_Recognition)

Speech recognition from scratch using tensorflow

[kootenpv/whereami](https://github.com/kootenpv/whereami)

Use wifi and machine learning to predict your location. The underlying math for this would be cool for an arduino project

[Qix-/better-exceptions](https://github.com/Qix-/better-exceptions)

Better exceptions for Python.

[gurugio/lowlevelprogramming-university](https://github.com/gurugio/lowlevelprogramming-university)

Low level programming. Because I keep thinking I want to do some low level stuff

[ZheC/Realtime_Multi-Person_Pose_Estimation](https://github.com/ZheC/Realtime_Multi-Person_Pose_Estimation)

Multi pose esitmation. Can't remember why this is cool. But you, know. Computer vision things.

[kamranahmedse/developer-roadmap](https://github.com/kamranahmedse/developer-roadmap)

The mind map in this one is cool. The topic of becoming a web developer is maybe less cool.

[DeepInEvil/webCamEmocognizer](https://github.com/DeepInEvil/webCamEmocognizer)

Emotion detector in python

[blei-lab/onlineldavb](https://github.com/blei-lab/onlineldavb)

Online variational bayes for latent dirichlet allocation. The online piece of this is cool

[sotelo/parrot](https://github.com/sotelo/parrot)

RNN-based generative models for speech

[getlogbook/logbook](https://github.com/getlogbook/logbook)

Logging replacement for python. Seeing alternate ways to log (which I don't do enough of anyways) would be cool.

[snikolov/rumor](https://github.com/snikolov/rumor)

Nonparametric timeseries classification for twitter trending topics. Cool idea, requires a lot of data to decide what is a trend.

[rabidgremlin/Mutters](https://github.com/rabidgremlin/Mutters)

Framework for building bot brains. Could be cool.

[SylvainDe/DidYouMean-Python](https://github.com/SylvainDe/DidYouMean-Python)

Module to have suggestions in case of errors. This guy reached out to me on Reddit. Really should help him clean up his repo. Cool idea.
