From prompts to movie trailer…I’ve been building an AI-assisted video pipeline for AI Signal and short-form content.

This weekend I pushed it further: a cinematic trailer generated mostly locally on my Mac with LTX.

For consumer hardware, I’m impressed. Check out the trailer👇

@vibekanban Up until today, I've been a huge fan. If you're going to do a sudden rug pull and push all local data to the cloud/your servers, please make sure you can guarantee uptime and not full data loss when glitches do happen. Not great. https://t.co/TrbY3O3dBG

Built an open source project while testing OpenClaw sandboxed in a macOS VM.

Mac Agent Gateway exposes a tightly scoped local macOS API via skills so sandboxed agents can safely use Apple apps.

Local-only. Allow-listed actions. No filesystem access.

Weekend tinkering. AI news started to feel like a job, so I built a small experiment to filter for signal.

Pulls from 20+ AI subreddits, scored with Python and summarized with Claude into a short weekly digest.

Too much AI news, not enough signal.

So I built a small local first Python tool that ranks Reddit posts and uses Claude Code with agent instructions to generate a clean “top X” digest. Weekend cabin project that did not quite turn into unplugging.

Over the last two weekends I hacked on an open source project after hitting memory and long-term context gaps in Claude Code.

memspan ports identity and context across LLMs. File-based, opt-in, per session.

@Grubhub How about a combo of a driver with food that actually arrives?!
For the 2nd time in 2 weeks we wait an hour for food, the driver marks the food as Delivered (no photo proof) and just takes off with your food.
Poor drivers, no ability to rate the driver experience or contact them, and just a massive decline in service.

Celebrating 20 years of blogging & open source coding this week! 🎉 What started as a curiosity and some passion side projects has led to 26 citations across 11 countries—spanning the Quantified Self, EEG, Mind Mapping, and more. I'm honored to see my work referenced in academia & research worldwide. Here's to more unexpected journeys! 🚀

@arikuschnir @realDonaldTrump Amazing!

Embracing change, diving into new technologies and exploring new opportunities — that's been my focus during this brief pause between my consulting projects and catching up on GenAI/LLM projects.

This is a long overdue portfolio page highlighting some of my past work and recent open source projects - https://t.co/7pveAf1e7F

I've been fascinated with “connected knowledge” & knowledge representation for years. This is still a work in progress capturing a list of links, articles, research papers, and projects on knowledge graphs, GenAI, & LLMs: https://t.co/1Y1vsXMMGF

Attended my 1st hackathon this past weekend - The National Security Hackathon for Defense in SF. 500+ participants, 64 teams tackling nextgen intelligence analysis, drones, CV, & AI/GPT/LLMs. Kicked off @Stanford , great networking w/ organizers & passionate students. The main event at SHACK15 (@SHACK15sf) was 🔥.

Coded most of the next 24hrs to process unclassified briefs, social media & a high-volume of news from 🇺🇸🇷🇺🇨🇳- used LLMs & graph DBs to extract insights & build knowledge graphs - built for chat/Q&A & intel summarization.

I'm proud of what we built in 24 hrs! Energizing to innovate alongside talented devs. Def doing more AI/LLM hackathons!

There's a certain irony when you have a complicated prompt that is failing and not consistent, and you ask ChatGPT to help debug the prompt and write a better one so it understands better.

I had a great, complicated prompt that worked 100% consistently with Claude. With OpenAI it was hit or miss.
I asked Claude to help fine tune the prompt to allow for more consistency in the output, even though it had no problem. And sure enough the new prompt works cross-platform now.

@AmericanAir I requested a call back since hold time was 45 mins. I get a call back and there's an option to 'Press 1' if I'm available to chat. I repeatedly hit 1 and it says "invalid options" until the call drops!!
Now I call back and it's an hour wait time. Ridiculous.

This past weekend I spent time diving deeper into OpenAI’s GPT-4 Vision capabilities. I figured this would be a good excuse to blend my interests in software development, AI/LLMs, and artwork.

1999 called and wants its "innovation" back.

Nobody asked for this. Nobody needs this. Nobody will pay for this. Nobody cares.
