Most teams debugging a disappointing RAG system start at the end of the pipeline. They swap the model, tune the prompt, raise top k. The answer quality barely moves, because the problem arrived long before the query did.
A retrieval system can only return what it indexed. Everything downstream inhe
My homelab includes a small VPS hosted on the internet; let's call it myserver.example.com. It provides me with a static IP address and it mainly runs an application that gathers data for me. For security reasons, the only open port is the SSH one (22) with the password disabled, I can only access w
For a few weeks I ran a proper multi-agent orchestrator. The concept was right, and I still think the people building those tools are pointed the correct way. But the bill was absurd, and it took me a while to work out why.
It wasn't the coding. It was the talking about the coding.
Every turn, age
These three get lumped together as "AI coding tools," but they're solving genuinely different problems in your workflow, inline completion, full-editor AI integration, and autonomous multi-file agentic work. Here's how they actually differ, and which combination makes sense depending on what you're
Meta Description: How I built a full-stack image-to-3D pipeline using Gemini, Hunyuan3D-2, LangGraph, FastAPI, Trimesh, and WebGL.
I wanted to experiment with a problem that sounds simple:
Can a single 2D image be turned into a usable 3D model?
A single image gives us information about the visib
43.1 Introduction
The previous chapter established the AI orchestration layer for controlled model inference.
The next architectural step is the AI agent layer.
A conventional AI request normally follows:
User → Model → Response
An agentic system can instead follow:
Goal → Plan → Retrieve → R
GPT-6 Astra from OpenAI is now available in GitHub Copilot. OpenAI’s latest general-purpose model, GPT-6 Astra, is designed for long-horizon, autonomous coding and agentic tasks. In our internal testing, GPT-6…

I have spent more than four years shipping production software, and I have no public repositories worth showing you. Everything substantial I have written at work lives in private repositories that belong to the companies I wrote it for, and confidentiality obligations do not lapse when a role ends.
