Coding agents & LLM mechanics

Vibe-coding & repos

  • minimind: train 64M-param LLM from scratch in 2h for ~$0.4, full open pipeline (pretrain, SFT, LoRA, DPO/PPO/GRPO, tool use, agentic RL), good minimal reference for how modern LLM training stages fit together.
  • DoltLite beta: SQLite fork adding git-style versioning, built largely via agent-orchestrated PRs (Gas Town); trades 1.2-4x speed for branch/diff/merge on embedded DB.
  • firecrawl/pdf-inspector: Rust lib, detects scanned vs text PDFs, extracts positioned text to clean Markdown without OCR in <200ms, bindings for Python/Node/WASM, useful for RAG ingestion pipelines.
  • My Claude-built game looked AI-made: tells on visual "AI slop" tells beyond fonts worth checking for in vibe-coded UIs.

Agentic SaaS

CLI/TUI

  • WebTerm Learn: browser-sandbox game for learning terminal basics, onboarding tool not core signal.
