This project is a little performance-optimization experiment focused on reducing the size of Go binary patches, which can be useful for quick incremental updates of live services. When a Go program grows by a few bytes through an incremental change, a bunch of related references and offsets throughout the compiled binary end up changing that makes general-purpose binary-diff encoders inefficient: zstd --patch-from produces a 530kb patch for a one-line change in a 30MB binary. bsdiff improves upon this (150KB patch) thanks to a delta compression algorithm that can handle relative offsets. go…

US parents say they were ‘robbed’ of seeing evidence of Meta’s awareness of the harm caused by its products.
TL;DR: Web search open router that routes agent web search across providers (Exa, Parallel, Tavily, Brave, SerpAPI etc.), and traces web search results with quality metrics, so you can visualize whether a bad agent run is a web search problem or a reasoning problem. I work in venture capital, and before that I worked in information retrieval. When agents went viral, I built a due diligence agent for my day job. I vibe-coded the first version. It was pretty bad. My first reaction is to blame the model. I tried to change backend models, maybe because Fable doesn't want to help me do people sear…

This is my take on what a modern music visualizer looks like. Five engines, one HDR pipe, with 12 pass post chain. (LUT, God Rays, Bloom) Images, video, .milk, glsl, webgpu, three.js,, and more. Span, Mirror, Wallpaper, Logos, OBS, Spout (in/out), Ableton, NDI, capture, games, workshop... It's pretty, it's different, and was built by one person with dog by side. It's free with DLC's, be one of the first to try it. The audio path is the most innovative part, and you won't even know it's there.

Since our Sparrow-1 launch, I’ve spent a lot of time listening to humans talking and trying to really understand how people know when to talk, when to listen, and when to wait. I’ve also been hunting down failure modes of the current SoTA models. And…
