Treating “one day” as a system primitive

1+ hour, 31+ min ago   (165+ words) For most AI apps, the unit of time is a request. A user sends a message, the model responds, and the workflow ends. Cogweald is designed around a different primitive: one real day. Each world can advance by at most…...

tokeneff: An Open-Source LLM Cost Meter That Runs Locally

1+ hour, 55+ min ago   (338+ words) Most LLM dashboards show you the bill after the damage is done. You run a coding agent for an afternoon, ship a feature, and two days later your OpenAI dashboard says you spent $47. On what? Which model? Which request? You…...

Keeping Services Loosely Coupled Without Making Everything Abstract

4+ hour, 29+ min ago   (500+ words) Loose coupling is one of those things everyone agrees with until they have to do it. Then it turns into a mess of interfaces, event buses, and six layers of indirection for a feature that just sends an email. I've…...
