Rambly, half-formed ideas that I will change and go back on often.
- I Still Don't Think We Respect How Important Chain of Thought Was in Large Language ModelsChain of thought turned the output stream into working memory. Tool calls then pushed reasoning beyond the model's frozen weights.
- The World Is a Padded CellI rented a car in Italy that physically fought me for the right to make a correct decision. The car is not the point. The point is that no one is a trusted adult anymore.
- A council for your coding agent.Fusing several LLMs into one answer is a great idea that quietly breaks any agent using tools. Here's the local router I built to get multi-model reasoning into agentic coding anyway: @dymoo/fusion.
- I trained my own coding model. My ruler was bent.I distilled frontier models into a 12B that runs on one Mac and genuinely codes: activity 16% → 37%, honestly. Then came the real lesson: half the campaign was spent discovering that my measurements, not my model, were broken.
- Getting LLMs to understand videos and audio.A practical MCP server that converts audio, video, and images into the two things LLMs actually accept: text and images.
- A zero trust future for identity on the internetthe current approach to age verification is catastrophically broken. here's what it should look like.
- Rust for the Agentic EraWhy Rust is quietly becoming the perfect language for AI-assisted development
- Dunning-Kruger as a ServiceLLMs haven't made people smarter. They've made people 30% informed and 100% confident.

- Embedding models are the best part of AIWhile everyone obsesses over chatbots, the real AI revolution is happening quietly with embedding models - cheap, reliable, and actually useful.
