🎯 Product evolution • AI integration • Comparison to alternatives
💬 "They didn't pivot, they completely reinvented themselves. Twice."
• "Love the local-ai approach."
🔬 RESEARCH
🎯 Repetitive patterns detection • Identifying unintentional vs. intentional repetition • Challenges in detecting AI-generated content
💬 "We haven't fully solved: distinguishing between harmful repetition and intentional rhetorical devices"
• "To the extent that this succeeds in hiding the brain damage in contemporary LLMs, it arguably is a cure worse than the disease"

🛠️ TOOLS
"We are building
kvcached, a library that lets local LLM inference engines such as **SGLang** and **vLLM** free idle KV cache memory instead of occupying the entire GPU. This allows you to run a model locally without using all available VRAM, so other applic..."
🎯 Llama.cpp support • KV cache offloading • Multi-agent setup
💬 "Llama.cpp support would be really nice"
• "Freeing VRAM makes a big difference"
🛠️ TOOLS
"So here’s what happened.
I was paying around $40/month for an AI coding assistant.
Then I realized... I was already paying for Claude.
Why was I paying twice for something I could build myself?
So I spent a week hacking together **Codebase MCP** — an open-source bridge that turns **Claude Desk..."
🎯 Fully local coding • Limitations of Claude • Alternatives to Claude
💬 "Claude code can use git, and edit code, and remember context"
• "Nothing about this is 'fully local'... code *absolutely* leaves your machine"

🎯 Mind mapping format • Graph-based knowledge representation • Scalable context management
💬 "The format enables line-by-line overwriting of nodes without complex parsing"
• "The graph structure allows many-to-many relationships between concepts"

"Growing evidence suggests that large language models do not use their depth
uniformly, yet we still lack a fine-grained understanding of their layer-wise
prediction dynamics. In this paper, we trace the intermediate representations
of several open-weight models during inference and reveal a structur..."

"We present a simple, self-help online supervised finetuning (OSFT) paradigm
for LLM reasoning. In this paradigm, the model generates its own responses and
is immediately finetuned on this self-generated data. OSFT is a highly
efficient training strategy for LLM reasoning, as it is reward-free and us..."

"Spatial functional organization is a hallmark of biological brains: neurons
are arranged topographically according to their response properties, at
multiple scales. In contrast, representations within most machine learning
models lack spatial biases, instead manifesting as disorganized vector spaces..."

🎯 Memory usage • Performance impact • User control
💬 "I am pretty skeptical of how useful memory is for these models."

"Large Language Models demonstrate strong capabilities in single-turn
instruction following but suffer from Lost-in-Conversation (LiC), a degradation
in performance as information is revealed progressively in multi-turn settings.
Motivated by the current progress on Reinforcement Learning with Verifi..."

"Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) has become the
mainstream technique for training LLM agents. However, RLVR highly depends on
well-crafted task queries and corresponding ground-truth answers to provide
accurate rewards, which requires massive human efforts and hinders the RL

"Adapting language models (LMs) to new tasks via post-training carries the
risk of degrading existing capabilities -- a phenomenon classically known as
catastrophic forgetting. In this paper, toward identifying guidelines for
mitigating this phenomenon, we systematically compare the forgetting patter..."
