That's a bold claim. But I genuinely feel like I might have actually solved computer use (demo: https://x.com/mdlahfir/status/2088109763783700827?s=20 ) For context, I've been building agent-desktop (Inspired by agent-browser by Vercel Labs), an automation CLI for desktop apps. It's like Playwright but for desktops, not just native, but for Chromium apps as well. Trust me, yes, Chromium apps whose accessibility tree is dense. MacOS is GA; I'm almost close to launching for Windows and Linux! So,...

I get my best ideas when I'm out walking or driving. I built Riffn to make sure I can capitalize on those ideas when and where they happen - while I'm away from my desk, usually outside. I used to use voice recording a lot. So I built Riffn to replace that with a direct voice link to any model or agent I wanted to talk to when my hands and eyes were busy. This lets me develop ideas and keep pushing forward on my apps and other projects when I'm out and about. Riffn is an iOS app that gives you a...

I’ve been wrestling with a homepage problem that I suspect applies to a lot of products. I was trying to explain an unusual product with increasingly good copy. The copy kept getting better and the homepage kept getting worse. Eventually I realized the problem: If the core value of the product can be experienced in ten seconds, explaining it first creates friction. So I changed the sequence from: THESIS → EXPLANATION → PRODUCT to: ACTION → RESULT → EXPLANATION My product is abo...

We’re a content distribution startup based in Arizona, building a platform for creators such as teachers, instructors, course creators, and digital product sellers. Unlike marketplaces such as Udemy or Coursera, our model is creator-first rather than marketplace-first: creators bring their own audience and distribute their content through their own academy/storefront. We’ve already validated the concept with the market and have started development with seed funding and a few investors. Our...

I recently was thinking about reducing the cost of LLMs, specially LLMs which are doing repetitive tasks (such as coding, which has a lot of repetition) and I was thinking of RNN's and had RWKV paper open. I'm not really good at math but as far as I could understand, they just added that QKV matrix system to a traditional RNN. Based on my personal tests, RWKV models are a little faster on both colab and gaming systems and even when quantized, faster on a CPU using ollama. So, what do you t...

Here is why this article is worth your time: you cannot tell what a generated setup script does by reading the diff. A diff shows you the words that will run, not the files that will be touched, the network connections that will be opened, or the directories that will be wiped at execution time. For a small patch, manual review may be enough. For a server initialization or cleanup script produced by a free model, the danger is in the side effects you never see in the source. This guide turns ...

Qwen3.8-2.4T-A95B is a 2.4-trillion-parameter Mixture-of-Experts model with roughly 95B parameters active for each token. If you're planning to self-host it, the first thing to know is that this is a genuinely large distributed model: even the low-precision checkpoints are measured in terabytes. The official open checkpoint is: Qwen/Qwen3.8-2.4T-A95B The model has 512 routed experts and selects 10 of them per token alongside one shared expert. Its 92-layer backbone mixes 69 ...

A merge request changes one README line. The pipeline still calls a model. It costs tokens. It adds latency. It tells you almost nothing. Sound familiar? If you maintain a small CI setup, this failure keeps showing up. The instinct is to put model-based review everywhere. Then the free tier dies in a week. The fix isn't another monitor. It's a small decision gate that decides whether a diff deserves a model call at all. The operator-supplied availability claims for MonkeyCode incl...

Building Roshni: An Ultra-Low Latency, Multi-Agent Financial Voice Assistant for Bharat 🇮🇳 How I built an end-to-end, multilingual financial voice AI using Murf Falcon, LiveKit Agents, Deepgram Nova-3, Google Gemini, and Next.js during the 10 Days of AI Voice Agents Challenge. 🌟 1. The Problem & Why Voice Matters for Bharat In India, financial inclusion has accelerated rapidly with UPI, digital banking, and government-backed credit initiatives. However, navigating co...

AI agents are starting to remember more than chats. They can watch clicks, typed text, app switches, browser context, files, tool calls, and workflow history. That memory can make an agent feel useful fast, but it can also turn a helpful feature into a quiet privacy incident. If you are building an AI product, do not start with “how much can we capture?” Start with “what is the smallest event stream that still helps the user?” This guide shows a practical privacy filter you can place between ...

What I Learned Stealing Ideas from Matt Pocock’s .agents Directory If you’ve spent more than ten minutes on TypeScript Twitter, you know Matt Pocock. He’s the guy who made zod and TS generics feel approachable. But a few weeks ago, I stumbled onto something more interesting than his type gymnastics: a repo called mattpocock/skills , which is literally a dump of his .agents directory. At first I thought it was a joke. Then I realized it’s a goldmine for anyone building AI-assisted c...

Most of the industrial AI you have seen is a retrieval pipeline with a chat box on it. Chunk the manuals, embed them, stuff the top matches into a context window, let the model talk. It demos well. It falls apart the first time somebody asks a question where the answer depends on what a machine is doing right now. We are an applied research lab called Nodeblue, and the system we build is called Nexus. This is a writeup of the architectural decision at the center of it, which is that the langu...

I'm a solo builder. I needed a 2-minute product demo for ClinTrialFinder — a free tool I built that matches cancer patients to clinical trials. I can fumble through OBS and iMovie, but I'm not proficient — and Claude Code does it faster. So I asked Claude Code — an agentic coding tool — to make it. And it did: a narrated walkthrough where the voiceover lands exactly on the on-screen action. I never opened a screen recorder. I never opened a video editor. I never manually lined up a single...

For the last 10 days, I have been building a voice agent called Shiksha as part of the 10 Days of Voice Agents — VoiceForBharat Edition challenge by Murf AI. My original idea was simple: Build a voice agent that can help students learn through natural conversation. Over the challenge, that idea grew into a complete voice-based learning system with memory, tools, human escalation, call analytics, and a specialist agent . What is Shiksha? Shiksha is a voice-ba...
