Working on reproducible test runs to catch quality issues from LLM providers. My main goal is not just a "the model made code, yay!" setup, but verifiable outputs that can show degradation as percentages. i.e. have the model make something like a connect 4 engine, and then run it through a lot of tests to see how "valid" it's solution is. Then score that solution as NN/100% accurate. Then do many runs of the same tes…

Sounds really interesting. What are you using for the tests/reports?

I've been working through the pwn.college curriculum, as well as building https://stoacentral.com. It's meant to be a place to chill, discuss philosophy (Stoicism), and improve yourself. I built it after becoming annoyed with Facebook groups, really.

If you're interested in Stoicism, feel free to join and start some discussions.

I’m working on an open source CLI that experiments with governance at inference time for autonomous systems.

The idea is to let multiple agents propose, critique, and stake on decisions before a single action is taken, rather than letting one model silently decide. It’s model-agnostic and runs locally, with no blockchain or financial layer involved.

I’m mostly exploring whether adding explicit disagreement and cost at decision time actually improves outcomes in high-stakes or automated workflows.

I've also created an AgentSkill to interact with the cli:

With LLMs, the cost structure is credits/tokens all the way down. This month, I built a tool to help you price your service credits or plans at https://aitokenpricing.com.

I also did a write up of PRDs and using Railway to build apps on my blog at https://aftercompsci.com.

I'm building Banger, a work email platform for builders (service + apps). It helps you to:

-> host your own custom domains and plug existing email sources with privacy;

-> share mailboxes with teammates and AI agents without having to share pwds as in the 80's;

-> git review like UX to collaborate with humans and AI agents; local AI to save money on mundane email tasks;

-> native apps + cli/mcp/api with guardrails for external AI agent access

I'm working on a search engine for clinical trials around the world.

I was frustrated by the process of searching for clinical trial info using the clunky and slow registry websites. So I aggregated all trials around the world and made the search faster. Additional features:

- You can watch a trial and get email updates

- Sometimes a trial is done and a paper published, but no updates to the official page. I try to find these papers and link them

- I try to link trials with the same drug together, showing the drug going through different phases
