I've been reading about LLM quantization for a while, and almost every explanation I found stopped at the same sentence: "it makes the model smaller." Fine. But how ? And what do you give up? So I wrote my notes down, got stuck on a few things, and built a small playground to help me visualize this concept better. For this article, we only go as far as 8-bit quantization. The denser things like GPTQ, GGUF and BitNet are something I'm still reading and will cover in the next few weeks. ...

next-advanced-sitemap 2.0 is out. It is a sitemap generator for the Next.js App Router, built for sites that have outgrown the basics. What is new in 2.0: Streaming XML: the sitemap is written as rows arrive from your database, so memory stays flat even with hundreds of thousands of URLs. Strict mode: entries that would under-perform in Search Console are rejected before any XML is produced. Deletion and expiration lifecycle: mark a page as removed or give it an expiry date, and t...

This week I did something I had been putting off for years: I fixed two real bugs in open-source projects and opened the PRs myself. The two were repowise-dev/repowise#3251 and sktime/sktime#11437. The repowise bug: doc_anchors only registered the first anchor when a document had repeated headings. GitHub-style suffixed anchors ( slug-1 , slug-2 ) were just missing. The sktime bug: LagLlamaForecaster._update was loading the entire series history on every update instead of keeping just...

Most online utility platforms send your inputs back and forth across remote servers. Whether you are generating a cryptographic password, calculating a mortgage amortization schedule, or compressing an image, traditional architectures introduce server latency, bandwidth overhead, and privacy risks. To solve this, I built Toolbay —a collection of 16 high-precision client-side instruments designed to execute 100% inside the browser sandbox. The Architecture: Zero Telemetry & ...

📌 Quick Info Topic: A practical, honest roadmap for learning Python in 2026 Target Audience: Beginners, career-changers, self-taught learners Goal: Give a real plan — not the same recycled advice 1. Introduction "I've published 28 articles about Python in four weeks. I've made every beginner mistake in the book. If I had to start over today, this is exactly what I'd do — and what I'd skip." 2. First, the Honest Truth Learning Python ...

This is a submission for the Kaggle Benchmarking Challenge What I Benchmarked Reliability under constraints: when a model must satisfy several rules at once, and the prompt is padded with distractors or conflicting notes, which rules slip? ModelBench has 16 tasks in 8 control/stress pairs across four families (constraints, structured output, distractors, compound tasks). A control is a plain task; its stress version adds extra constraints, conflicting instructions or irrele...

This is a submission for the Hacktoberfest Open-Source AI Challenge Week 1: Touch Grass What I Built 🌿 What is FIELDNOTE? “The better you use FIELDNOTE, the less you need to look at your phone.” FIELDNOTE is a local-AI observation engine designed for the Hacktoberfest 2026 Week 1 “Touch Grass” Challenge. Rather than competing for your screen time with streaks, push notifications, and gamification, FIELDNOTE is an intentional physical instrument that prompts you to put your phone away, st...

Abstract: Developers often prefer flexibility over upfront schema design, making semi-structured data formats such as JSON increasingly popular. Large amounts of JSON data are therefore stored and analyzed by relational database systems. In existing systems, however, JSON’s lack of a fixed schema results in slow analytics. In this paper, we present JSON tiles, which, without losing the flexibility of JSON, enables relational systems to perform analytics on JSON data at native speed. JSON tiles a...

What resources (authors, podcasts, books, etc) do you follow to keep up with best practices, patterns, methodologies, for software development with AI? There is so much noise that I want to know a few trusted resources (especially authors) to follow to keep up with latest best practices (an example of an author in what I have in mind would be Simon Willison).
