taking the red pill.

[Sahil Dewan @SahilDewan]

this one is hard.

after several years building Karma3 Labs / OpenRank, we’re winding down the company and ending active development of OpenRank.

i’m proud of what we built and grateful to everyone who was a part of the ride.

still believe open networks need better reputation and trust systems. OpenRank was one attempt at that future.
sharing some reflections in this post

[Eigen Labs @eigenlabs]

Quantum computers put hundreds of billions of dollars at risk on Ethereum.

In order to scale post-quantum Ethereum, the cryptography needs to be faster.

Today, we’re teaming up with @succinctlabs & @ethereumfndn to launch https://t.co/URATV5T4Ig, an open autoresearch challenge where anyone can improve Flock, a leading post-quantum proof system, and make post-quantum Ethereum a reality.

Bring your agent. Make it go fast.

[Sahil Dewan @SahilDewan]

what a cool use of collaborative autoresearch

an army of agents and AI harness devs optimizing open source model inference on Macs 😎

[Gajesh @gajesh]

At 6% the size of DeepSeek V4 Pro, Laguna S 2.1 delivers significantly higher performance.

Today, we’re teaming up with @poolsideai to make Laguna XS 2.1 (same architecture as Laguna S 2.1) even faster on consumer Macs.

We’re launching MLX(.)fast: a public competition where anyone can collaborate, contribute optimizations, and accelerate Laguna’s MLX inference engine.

[Eigen Labs @eigenlabs]

Researchers from Berkeley and Princeton are partnering with Eigen Labs to launch a suite of open science autoresearch challenges together on Frontier CS.

The paper is being presented at @icmlconf in Seoul today. If you’re there, join the researchers at Hall A 502 from 2:30-4:15 PM local time to discuss.

The challenge is live globally: https://t.co/p03zkNqb6Q

[Dennison @DennisonBertram]

I burned $13,836 worth of Claude Code tokens in June.

The same work on open models: $3,106.

That's $10,730 left on the table — one month, one laptop.

So I built the instrument that shows you the gap. Open source, 100% local. Launching today 🧵

@DharmiKumbhani u're an MVP wherever you go.

@kevinrose @digg my hermes agent uses digg as a data source for curated ai news and updates

[Sahil Dewan @SahilDewan]

@hnshah definitely. I imgrated from openclaw to hermes and its a big difference in capability.

[Nous Research @NousResearch]

Hermes Agent is now #1 on the Global @OpenRouter token rankings.

While our journey together has just begun, we'd like to take this opportunity to thank our contributors, supporters, and users for all they have done to get us this far.
