Yay, the mod seems to be doing a good job at preventing the crashes, even after generating 142k+ chunks, not a single crash happened!
I just re-designed the old icon for the mod, now looking way cleaner and sharper. It is now a part of the mod as its main icon.
So I just added logging whenever the mod is used.. maybe not the best idea ever, but hey, if you ever need to know for whatever reason that the mod works here you go.
Ported the fix to Forge and Fabric! Devlog #4 I did not expect to make any sort of update to this patch mod, yet I found out forge (and possibly fabric too) suffer from the issue.

Devlog Title: monkeyos by @simonproyt | Stardance
Devlogs:
So this is my first devlog for this project the idea is that to build a rust and wasm based web os that because i taught that using standard html 5 + js would be kinda boring because everyone does that i wanted to do something special so here is the current state of the project: Whats working basic filesystem basic process management a basic shell with rust uutils backed commands Thanks for reading my devlog
So we have finally working unix style pipes added to the system and a lot of underlying changes in the kernel for more performance improvements cause the older versions were kinda slow and im trying to fix that
Multi windowing is finally supported now but the gui still looks kinda basic the webgpu rendering engine behind everything still doesn’t support text or image rendering so i will be working on that and adding more apps because we only have the terminal
Worked on a ci pipeline to deploy the project automatically to github pages and added a few visual fixes to the project
A pretty big update so after a lot of work i finally added a few features that the os have been missing for ages like a gui library so there could be gui apps not just terminal stuff and a demo calculator app text rendering support to the webgpu engine aero snap like window snapping a dock for window management with a clock and a menu to launch apps Thank you for reading my devlog
Added two new apps to the os so after having the libui ui layer implemented i decided to add more apps to demo it like a notepad and a basic file manager
Added 3 new commands to the cli mv and grep: its preatty self explanatory what it does if you ever used linux or any other unix like operating system for that matter man: this was kinda hard at first finding where you can find online versions of the manpages from linux that the os can easily get over an api but after a bit of searching i found the tldr pages project and uses that and the github api to download the pages and then strip out the markdown syntax from them and displays them in the terminal.
Added some multimedia features and a basic networking api beep Just a simple pc speaker like beep to test if the sound api is working or not imgview An image viewer thats it nothing special fetch A curl like command that uses the new networking api to fetch stuff trough the browser or if that fails because of crocs trough a proxy api
More audio stuff piano It’s a piano what more could i say about it midiplayer It’s a retro chiptune style midi player to demo the oses audio capabilities with a cool visualizer
First game Added snake to the os as a cool way to demo all the rendering sound and storage apis in a fun way and added a few underlying kernel and window manager changes like increasing the oses fps target from 2 to 30 because it was so laggy for games
Backgrounds finally so one of the things missing from the os i think was like some pretty backgrounds cause the os only had that bland dark blue/grey ish simple one color background support but i changed that now and added support for random image background support with NASA APOD or Picsum random as the selectable options in the new settings app
Ships:
So i think this is good as an initial version but i have a lot of work to do on the rendering engine and adding more apps because its kinda bare bones but i will be definitely flushing it out more and making the ui more pretty
I finally turned the concept into a more usable tech demo that has some features and focused on making apps that demo the oses underlying apis in a simple way and polishing the whole os to not have that unfinished concept feeling also if you want to try it out you might need to enable webgpu in your browsers flags settings if its not enabled by default. Thank you for reading and I hope that you found my projects interesting!...

It doesn’t sound like a generic AI wrote it—it sounds like a real developer who just fought a long battle with code and won. 🛰️ What did you make? I built NASA Quantum OS, a custom space-themed web desktop environment. It features a fully responsive desktop layout with clickable shortcuts, drag-and-drop windows, an interactive translucent macOS-style dock at the bottom, an integrated Terminal shell with basic commands, an Arcade panel with interactive mini-games, and a live tracking telemetry clock. 🧱 What was challenging? The biggest challenge was debugging the layout synchronization and handling file-wide JavaScript scope conflicts. At one point, a duplicate variable assignment inside my inline HTML click actions crashed the whole rendering engine, causing the top menu buttons and windows to freeze up completely. Tracking down silent syntax errors—like an unclosed @keyframes bracket in my CSS—required a lot of meticulous, line-by-line file auditing and a few complete workspace wipes to clear out “ghost code.” 💪 What are you proud of? I’m incredibly proud of the custom Sandbox Registration & Lock Screen Engine I built using localStorage. Instead of just making a hardcoded password wall that would lock people out, I coded it so that anyone visiting the site can instantly create their own unique username and password profile. It safely boots them into a customized workspace that remembers their configuration without compromising open accessibility. 🎮 What should people know so they can test your project? When you first launch the page, you’ll see a secure access terminal. Don’t panic—there is no locked password! Just type in whatever username and password you want to create your own sandbox profile and hit “Initialize Registration.” Once you are in, click around! You can drag any window by its header, change the cosmic wallpaper options in Settings, type help into the Terminal console, or click the asteroid icon in the Arcade panel to harvest energy crystals.", "repo": "https://github.com/joshith498-crypto/ZenithOS/", "demo": "https://zenithos1.netlify.app/"}]...

I’ve always been obsessed with those old NASA mission control screens, so I decided to make my own version. The goal is to make it look like a real desktop environment, but with a space-tech vibe. Entry 2: The Architecture Struggle I spent way too long trying to figure out how to structure this so it wouldn’t become a mess. I decided to break it down into modules: core.js for the main stuff, vfs.js for the file system, and windowManager.js for the windows. It took a few tries, but having it decoupled like this makes it a lot easier to fix things when I break them. Entry 3: Building the Virtual File System (VFS)This was the hardest part so far. I wanted files to actually persist, so I’m using localStorage. Writing the CRUD operations (creating, reading, updating, deleting) was a huge pain, but now I can actually save folders and files and they stay there when I refresh.Entry 4: The Aesthetic (Mission Control) I’m really digging the “Cyber-Violet” theme. I spent all night playing with CSS grid and flexbox to get the glass blur effects right. It finally looks like something you’d see in a high-tech orbital command center. Entry 5: Current Status & Next StepsThe terminal is working well enough to navigate the VFS, and the arcade games (Minefield, Comet Snake) are running. Next, I need to finish up the telemetry dashboard to track the system uptime.I still have a lot of debugging to do—it’s definitely not perfect yet—but it’s coming along. Resetting the OS via the settings panel clears the data, which I’m glad I implemented so I can wipe it clean when I need to test a fresh start."}, {"post_id": 19213, "ts": "2026-06-30T14:08:42Z", "hours": 0.3611, "text": "🚀 QuantumOS v2 Devlog When I first built this project, I mainly focused on making it look like an operating system. It had a Finder, Terminal, Settings, and a few games, but after getting feedback from the reviewer I realized it felt more like a UI demo than an actual OS. Instead of starting over, I decided to improve what I already had. The biggest change was rebuilding the Finder. Originally it just displayed a few hardcoded files, but now it actually behaves like a mini file manager. You can create files and folders, rename them, delete them, and everything is saved so it doesn’t disappear when you refresh the page. I also spent a lot of time improving the Terminal. At first it only had a handful of fake commands. Now it can actually interact with the virtual filesystem, so commands like creating folders or listing files have a real effect instead of just printing text. Another thing I wanted to improve was the overall experience. I added more applications, expanded the arcade section with extra games, improved the notification system, and made the windows feel smoother to use. I also kept refining the macOS-inspired interface because I really liked how it looked, but I tried to give it more of a NASA Mission Control personality instead of relying on a generic futuristic design. One challenge I ran into was keeping everything connected. The Finder, Terminal, and apps all needed to stay in sync, and getting changes to persist after refreshing the browser took more work than I expected. It ended up teaching me a lot about managing application state and organizing JavaScript in a larger project. This project also made me realize that building an operating system isn’t just about making things look nice. The fun part was making different pieces communicate with each other and making the desktop feel like a real environment instead of a collection of windows.

I also kept refining the macOS-inspired interface because I really liked how it looked, but I tried to give it more of a NASA Mission Control personality instead of relying on a generic futuristic design. One challenge I ran into was keeping everything connected. The Finder, Terminal, and apps all needed to stay in sync, and getting changes to persist after refreshing the browser took more work than I expected. It ended up teaching me a lot about managing application state and organizing JavaScript in a larger project. This project also made me realize that building an operating system isn’t just about making things look nice. The fun part was making different pieces communicate with each other and making the desktop feel like a real environment instead of a collection of windows. There’s still a lot I’d like to add in the future, like more built-in apps, better multitasking, and deeper NASA-inspired features, but I’m really happy with how much the project has grown from the first version.
Devlog: Zenith Shell - Getting the Orbital OS off the groundEntry 1: The “Why” I finally started working on Zenith Shell, my web-based OS. I’ve always been obsessed with those old NASA mission control screens, so I decided to make my own version. The goal is to make it look like a real desktop environment, but with a space-tech vibe. Entry 2: The Architecture Struggle I spent way too long trying to figure out how to structure this so it wouldn’t become a mess. I decided to break it down into modules: core.js for the main stuff, vfs.js for the file system, and windowManager.js for the windows. It took a few tries, but having it decoupled like this makes it a lot easier to fix things when I break them. Entry 3: Building the Virtual File System (VFS)This was the hardest part so far. I wanted files to actually persist, so I’m using localStorage. Writing the CRUD operations (creating, reading, updating, deleting) was a huge pain, but now I can actually save folders and files and they stay there when I refresh.Entry 4: The Aesthetic (Mission Control) I’m really digging the “Cyber-Violet” theme. I spent all night playing with CSS grid and flexbox to get the glass blur effects right. It finally looks like something you’d see in a high-tech orbital command center. Entry 5: Current Status & Next StepsThe terminal is working well enough to navigate the VFS, and the arcade games (Minefield, Comet Snake) are running. Next, I need to finish up the telemetry dashboard to track the system uptime.I still have a lot of debugging to do—it’s definitely not perfect yet—but it’s coming along. Resetting the OS via the settings panel clears the data, which I’m glad I implemented so I can wipe it clean when I need to test a fresh start.
focused on making changes to the project today also fixed the bug in the comet snake game and removed the missons app as its not working , tested all the apps and i feel like this is the last devlog beore i ship
Reworked on the css and added a new wallpaper system rather than the old static wallpapers also remove minefield game and I am trying to add a helper bot named zenith bot still in progress tho also the screenshot isfrom my mobile I was away from my laptop when I wrote this devlog I also changed the logos of the apps to match the wallpapers vibes also guys check the wallpaper switch button in the settings to change to another wallpapers currently hav 2 wallpapers will add more

Here is a perfectly formatted, genuinely human answer you can paste right into those portal questions. It doesn’t sound like a generic AI wrote it—it sounds like a real developer who just fought a long battle with code and won. 🛰️ What did you make? I built NASA Quantum OS, a custom space-themed web desktop environment. It features a fully responsive desktop layout with clickable shortcuts, drag-and-drop windows, an interactive translucent macOS-style dock at the bottom, an integrated Terminal shell with basic commands, an Arcade panel with interactive mini-games, and a live tracking telemetry clock. 🧱 What was challenging? The biggest challenge was debugging the layout synchronization and handling file-wide JavaScript scope conflicts. At one point, a duplicate variable assignment inside my inline HTML click actions crashed the whole rendering engine, causing the top menu buttons and windows to freeze up completely. Tracking down silent syntax errors—like an unclosed @keyframes bracket in my CSS—required a lot of meticulous, line-by-line file auditing and a few complete workspace wipes to clear out “ghost code.” 💪 What are you proud of? I’m incredibly proud of the custom Sandbox Registration & Lock Screen Engine I built using localStorage. Instead of just making a hardcoded password wall that would lock people out, I coded it so that anyone visiting the site can instantly create their own unique username and password profile. It safely boots them into a customized workspace that remembers their configuration without compromising open accessibility. 🎮 What should people know so they can test your project? When you first launch the page, you’ll see a secure access terminal. Don’t panic—there is no locked password! Just type in whatever username and password you want to create your own sandbox profile and hit “Initialize Registration.” Once you are in, click around! You can drag any window by its header, change the cosmic wallpaper options in Settings, type help into the Terminal console, or click the asteroid icon in the Arcade panel to harvest energy crystals.

I think the interface look better than the first one
I don’t code so much, but add a script to my project that control both a draggable window and the clock, the interface is the same, but i download the image so it has a lot more of resolution instead of using a Google link
I finally finished all the User Interface , also I wanna let you know I am upgrading this eventually when something interesting arrive to my life, i hope you like it, i add a dock for the icons with the half of opacity, also for my organization I add a styles.css because the styles section, nowadays have more than 200 lines also I added a little easter egg as icon for welcome scree, the language is spanish because I am mexican
Now i add details to each application, in the welcome screen i put a introduction text and a meme, in the projects application i added a slider that i found in a css styles internet page and images about me in the challenges or projects i mentioned in that app in the about me (sobre mi) application I putted an image of a video game so people can now i like Fortnite 🐱, in the music app, i add a sophisticated app that is a reprodcuer of music, at start it doesn’t reproduce any audio so I downloaded music from Youtube and committed that in my Github repo, i did the same with all the image and finally in my contact app i added my contact info (E-mail and Whatsapp if someone can talk
What’s new? Well i add some things as a terminal a philosphy window and a simple fade animation when the OS starts Terminal: it works with only three commands as fastfetch, gustos and clear fastfetch do a ascii art of the logo and invented information like neofetch in linux distros or termux.

As new features I add a terminal, a simple fade animation and a philosphy window although the code part is very difficult i think it is easier that design, actually i spend more than 5 hours defining the logo design and doing sketches in a notebook that is somethig that i ussually don’t do, but at the end i was proud.

I’m tired but it’s finished Seven hours logged this weekend. I made a simple cli todolist made using gotui. It has persistent storage on disk :) Here you have a demo video, binaries are in github too.

Persistent storage works again After almost an hour of coding I was able get persistent storage working again and fix a couple of bugs. In the last devlog I explained that because of the project’s rewrite I disabled persistent storage. The project now asked for the user’s name and supported multiple todolists so the previous logic didn’t work. I thankfully was able to reuse a lot of code from the last version(mostly the file handling stuff). Now the project stores data on disk this way: One .cli-TODO-config.json file which contains the user’s name. One .cli-TODO-data.json file which contains the slice of todolists in json.

Not anymore. Other minor bugs that mostly appeared during the development of persistent storage. Like closing a file too early(then, if I tried to write to it again it would crash the program and leave the terminal in a broken state).
Last devlog of the day I implemented a lot of stuff in this 5 hours. Here you have a list: Help messages on most of the views. A brand new TODO view that allows the user to see more information about a given TODO and change more stuff like it’s due date(not implemented yet), reminders(not implemented yet) and description. A brand new view for changing a given TODO’s due date and reminder toggle. Added a dot at the end of the welcome message. Added a more celebratory way of completing a TODO rather than just deleting it. Added warning when terminal size is too small. bug fixed and small upgrades like remembering the selected item when going back to a list. I already wrote way too much on the last two devlogs and it’s already late so I’ve kept this one brief :)
More progress I can almost see the next ship, I’ve made a lot of progress. Main improvements: Upgraded the design and functionality of the view that allows the user to change due date and reminder. All due date functionality now work. Some bug fixes + minor improvements: TODOs now keep the correct metadata after any other todo is deleted. Previously, description, due date and reminder used to be swapped between TODOs. Made description input box wrap text instead of letting it go out of the box. Updated help messages. Things left to do: Reminders Add a button to reset the due date and reminder. After spending quite the time working with the time package I now think that our understanding of time is broken. Years should have a set amount of days, months a set amount of days and weeks. It would make my live much easier.
Ready to ship I’ve spent these 3h mostly on implementing the reminders feature, sadly I couldn’t find a good enough solution and had to drop the feature. I’ve tested multiple go libraries but just couldn’t find one that reliably sent notifications across all platforms. Also, all of them sent desktop notifications instead of something more terminal-related which is what I had in mind. And then, after fighting with creating a background process for hours I decided that it simply wasn’t worth the effort, so I decided to not implement reminders and delete all reminder-related features already implemented in the UI. The due date feature remains intact. It’s sad but I think it’s the best decision to keep the app consistent and manageable. Chasing processes in activity monitor to stop notification loops was fun though! But not all the time in these 3 hours was wasted. I was able to add a button to reset the due date of a TODO and did a general cleanup of the code to prepare it for release.
Ships:
A simple cli todolist made using gotui. It has persistent storage on disk too :) There’s a demo video on my latest devlog and on github, binaries are on github too.
I made a simple todolist app that runs on the terminal. It has a beautiful TUI, persistent storage, due dates and much more! I’ve learnt a lot while making this project and how it came out. The devlogs are pretty long so I’ll keep this ship message short, just know that I’ve uploaded a demo video that you can find in the project’s readme :) Check the releases page for binaries: https://github.com/javiermm8/cli-todolist/releases...

gang i wrote so much but there’s an error so it didnt get sent im gonna cry. not very epik yet but give it like 10 more hours i did: styling finding images making windows draggable designing bottom dock but it still can’t work yet challenges: sigh im a little rusty in programming in general not sure where to put the app state and what information so i struggled hard with that unfamilarity with vue
things i did: rewrote useDrag logic to use the useAppsState file and limit dragging only in the viewport wrote useResize logic (only can resize one way because i suck at it and im not motivated to do this) define useAppState, wrote function to modify for useAppState i think i have it figured out… it should be in a global AppsState kinda thing. At first i tried separating them into app info and the state of it eg. open closed, size position etc but i got confused so even though its not good practice i just… smashed them all together i feel im getting impatient / losing motivation for this project but i don’t know… this is so random but v-bind is so insane as a beginner vue developer omgomgomgomgo-
ok it really is coming together (very slowly) things i did: desktop now renders open/maximized windows on screen dynamic modal positioning for search and calendar fullscreen toggle adjust wallpaper images (lowkey the hardest part i can’t seem to find any good high quality landscape pics and i am too lazy to edit one) i was so happy when the windows appeared i can’t believe that i could do this !! now i need to list out the icons on the screen and make all the APPS!!!
i built a browser app with two tabs! and the links are their stuff on another page! i also showed icons on the desktop using grid css because I may want to make them organizable in the future…
dang i lost my streak but yes i made notes app using tiptap package gallery app but its more of a scroll thing enjoy i will work on a start screen and then… maybe one more app…
i am so happy what has changed: settings app with dark and light mode and can change background new start screen new cursor i feel so delighted when the dark/light mode thing worked because embarrassingly i have never successfully implemented one before
yay updates: terminal app with 9 commands and good formatting!! you can upload custom wallpapers now!! i now know how to use the pre html tag… wow. also its my first time trying to setup a terminal like app that includes cycling pass through past commands and displaying output histrory correctly. there’s like a bug that doesn’t automatically scroll down towards the bottom and that makes me sad because i can’t fix it but other than that i think its good hehe
what ive done logic for the music player when i first started this i thought it wouldn’t take long but it did… and i haven’t finished styling yet so it looks really bad… so why it took so long was at first i tried searching up to use spotify, but realised only premium members can select track so never mind… then i considered storing all the songs in a file storage server but i felt bad downloading the songs so i explored other options… so i went to search up how other WebOS does their music player and the ariana grande one used the youtube API so i looked into it… thanks it worked!! ok so after it worked, i tried to separate them into composable and smaller components because it got too messy on one file and that’s where i spent so much time on this… now im gonna style this better…
i would love to put a video but i keep getting bad gatway error due to my slow internet connection but i styled it and added a few more epik high albums! and theres even a cute gif when its in a loading state because i did not want to confuse users. i also did a bit of restructuring and divided them into smaller components…
ok made a calendar and a countdown to the next epikcase youtube drop… apps now can be resized in every direction!!!! that was challenging for me. i don’t know it was just hard to figure it out thank god theres no rotate function or else it would probbly be impossible to calculate im gonna put in animations and sound effects now… maybe a loading screen too
probably the final devlog i did some small animations!! i saw a youtube video about framer motion and i decided to try it… i like its declarative approach and usage of animation props!! so yum i also made a context manager i think thats so cool too i made a guide app for people who may need more guidance in navigating the app i added skip and next buttons for my music web player yup!

so i’m building senpai, an ai that actually talks like my friend, not some normal chatbot. so first thing first, I need data to learn from so here’s wht I did: exported a whole year of whatsapp chats with my friend (yes i read through all of it, and got his consent). wrote a python script on kaggle to clean it up and formatting it into proper training pairs not glamorous but this is like 30% of the actual work tbh, garbage data can cause strange and irrelevant replies Then I trained this on Kaggle with Llama model with LoRA adaptation Right now the replies aren’t so great, I’ll do some fine tuning later
Trained the data ( This took soo much time fr) I used kaggle’s free gpu (t4, sometimes p100 if i got lucky) to fine tune llama 3b with LoRA through PEFT. quick explainer since people asked LoRA freezes the whole base model (32m params untouched) and only trains a tiny set of adapter params (420k). instead of retraining the entire model I put a extra layer of changed weights on top of the model which is way cheaper and faster than the traditional training tested it after training and it WORKED.

I uploaded my model on Hugging Face with zero GPU (made a new hf space called amadeus, picked gradio as the sdk, zeroGPU as hardware) If someone else is thinking about starting in HF, just wanna tell the annoying part: cold starts. first message takes 20-40s while the model loads into memory. after that it’s quick like 3-8s then built an actual next.js frontend since raw gradio ui felt kinda mid, hooked it up through an api route, deployed on vercel with my env keys And it’s live
wanted senpai to be more.

In the end, I decided to stay with Hugging Face Spaces because the free setup is more suitable for this side project. Also improved the HF app.py file

I shortened the responses, restricted web search to things like news and sports, improved the system prompt and input handling, redesigned the mobile UI, and added a message explaining the cold start delay
Made some Minor UI changes on frontend nextjs
Guyss!! This is gonna be the last change I’ve made today, Senpai chatbot is live now and she’s talking like my friend (really couldn’t be more happy to see her talk to me again 🥹 )
here
Ships:
I built a AI RAG chatbot that mimics my friends personality , trained on whatsapp chats so it actually talks like my friend instead of generic robot ai. fine tuned llama 3b with LoRA on kaggle’s free gpu, deployed it on hf spaces zeroGPU gradio for backend and next.js on vercel for frontend, plus added RAG so it can clean up messy texts and pull live info from the web when needed. it genuinely feels like talking to my friend, all built for free. to test it. just start chatting, first msg might take a sec to load (model’s waking up)
Made a RAG chatbot that mimics my friends personality using Llama and Hugging Face. NOTE: I’m using zero GPU on HF so after 100 msgs it goes to sleeping mood , in that case the chatbot would reply a random thing like “system off” , “internet is down” or something like that , so don’t worry about that, come after 24Hr and she’ll talk normally FACT: Senpai used to say a lot “Haii haii” which is a japanese phrase for “yes” so don’t worry about that either, she’s just being friendly with ya Hope ya’ll love this version of chatbot...

Built PixelOS with just HTML, CSS, and JavaScript — no frameworks, no build tools, no dependencies. Inspired by old-school Windows desktops mixed with retro pixel art. I wanted to prove you can make something that looks premium with vanilla code.
PixelOS comes with 6 apps: a Wikipedia API viewer that lets you search and read articles inside the desktop, a Calculator, a Pixel Art Editor with 16×16 grid and PNG export, a Lo-Fi Cafe with direct audio streams, a Glass Diary for writing with export support, and desktop widgets (analog clock + live calendar). Every app is fully draggable, resizable, and works inside the glass window system.
Final updates: Added terminal-style boot screen Refined calculator with expression input + scientific mode (sin, cos, tan, log, sqrt, factorial)
PixelOS Updates Notifications system Terminal Notepad — Save As dialog with file browser + overwrite warning Glass Diary — Paper styling, cursive font, auto-save, calendar to browse entries by date Timer — Countdown fixed, custom hr:min:sec inputs Pixel Editor — Save/Load .pxl files to VFS Snake — High score notification More coming soon 🟣

Decided on writing my personal, mostly static website in React, because I’ve never used it so I wanted to get a little practice with it! I’m currently making an about section and then I’ll submit it since it qualifies for the personal site, mission, once I submit it I’ll begin working on actual features like an image gallery for my photography and a blogging system, also plan to migrate the project from being static to having their own place in a database which I can edit from a dashboard and stuff. What I’m done with so far: Topbar with navigation Hero section with an animated welcome message Projects section with some projects already placed into it
Finished with the about section, also added a footer!
Making this devlog cause I have to I feel useless :( I wasted so much time on this project today it’s not even funny. 8 hours or so currently, and not even half done with a single very simple feature, I’m usually much much more efficient, I almost gave up on the whole thing a good couple of times, anyways here is a screenshot from the dashboard in it’s current state. I promise the next devlog will actually be a worthy one!
Backend updates: Authentication works now Adding projects to the backend and displaying them also works perfectly Added ability to edit the website title, about text, socials, and email
Added uploads to the site, so I don’t have to rely on external services for assets
Added the backend side of things for the gallery!
Added not too good looking, but functional controls for the dashboard for the gallery feature. I think I’ll redesign the whole page someday, but that won’t be today.
New devlog Things I added: Added the gallery page to the website’s public part with an image display section similar to the one on unsplash.(Mine’s a bit worse, but it’s mine) I also implemented tag based filtering! Also added a friendlier navigation panel for mobile users! Next up: A way to view the image in big in full resolution, I already designed it in figma , so now I just need to implement it! Code base and assets cleanup. Deployment and ship! :)
Image viewer, yay! I just need to get this whole thing to prod now.
Even though I said I’ll just deploy, I added mass uploads, deployed, and then started filling the site with content! The next major ship is right around the corner!
Dashboard redesign! I got fed up with the old design as it was quite uncomfortable to use tbh, everything was layed out vertically, so it felt pretty cramped, so I changed it to a sidebar design! I also replaced most of the inline editing stuff, so creating and editing projects now happen in modals. Uploading and tagging photographs also moved to a modal with real time suggestions too!
Ships:
I made my own personal website!
Lots of changes were made Everything that was static before, is now rendered dynamically from a database! Added a dashboard where I can add projects, upload assets, upload images and edit all of the about information. For the gallery I added a tagging system that can be updated from the dashboard. The site also implements exif data storage, so I anyone can view the camera, lens and settings used to make the photo. There is also a description section for notes. The gallery is render in a style similar to unsplash, the site is divided into columns, which are dinamically added and destroyed, based on the viewport width.

The biggest part of this was improving the update flow. After adding health checks, I worked on making updates more reliable by testing candidate containers before replacing the live API. This means ClarkLab can now check that the new version is actually healthy before switching over, instead of restarting and hoping it works. It should make updates more stble, especially when running it on your own server. I also spent time improving agent updates. Agents can now be updated using release binaries, and I added more work around prebuilt agent binaries, release patches, and version handling. This should make agent updates cleaner and less dependent on building everything manually on the target machine. Another big focus was setup. I added an api and Cloudflare setup wizard to make self-hosting easier. The goal is to guide people through the annoying parts like env setup, production configuration, Cloudflare tunnel setup, frontend variables, and install scripts. It is nowhere near perfect and used agentic assistance, but it is a big step toward making it easier to deploy without needing to manually configure every little option across multiple files. I also improved the node setup flow. There is now a cancel setup button, so if you start setting up a node and mess something up, you are not just stuck with a half-created node. I also patched several small bugs such as the node install command. For debugging, I updated agent logs to use the journal. This should make logs more useful and easier to understand when something goes wrong on a server. I thought this was important as i want this project to be usable for real infra. This feature is very much so in an early stage as i am nowhere near finished with it. There were also a bunch of security and maintenance fixes. I patched agent authentication, blocked node modification for users who are not sysadmins, strengthened password reset handling, reduced the chance of sensitive data being exposed through frontend logs, and tightened GitHub repo parsing. I also updated workflow permissions and CI checks so changes are safer. This devlog is again, not about new frontend features. It is mostly about making this project more stable, easier to deploy, and safer. The main thing I learned from the last ship is that setup still needs to be much easier, so I started moving toward a proper guided setup flow. I very much so want to keep improving that until someone can deploy ClarkLab without having to understand how it works completely first."}, {"post_id": 22790, "ts": "2026-07-05T11:30:41Z", "hours": 3.3653, "text": "I’ve been focused on making ClarkLab easier to use and more fixable if it breaks.

I worked on frontend reconnect behaviour and node reconnection so online nodes can be reconnected at any time instead of requiring it to be not responding first.

Devlogs:
In the last few weeks i have created an in-house and open-source version of coolify. I did this as i wanted a way to run coolify that i found easier and that i preferred UI wise. I am still making it so there is almost certainly issues relating to security but it is currently functional.
I’ve been focused on making ClarkLab easier to use and more fixable if it breaks. One part of this was improving how the app behaves when connections are unstable. I worked on frontend reconnect behaviour and node reconnection so online nodes can be reconnected at any time instead of requiring it to be not responding first. I also fixed issues around agent/API update handling, as there were issues when using the update tool. I introduced health checks in this log as well. Services can now be configured for health monitoring, and the frontend displays health status in the service detail page so it’s easier to see what’s working and what needs attention without investigation. Chore wise, I updated CI checks so changes are safer and easier to maintain. On the UI side, I made a number of usability improvements when deploying it for youself: site URL editing on the frontend, cleanup toward a more minimal interface, masking node IPs behind a reveal action for privacy, and fixes for issues like the API banner behaviour, node install flow, and port allocation notices. Based on feedback from the last ship, It’s clear that I need to make it easier to setup. I’m planning on making a CLI-based setup flow with env setup etc there, but, that is not built yet. Overall, this devlog is less about new frontend features and more about making ClarkLab feel more stable and less buggy.
I’ve been focused on making ClarkLab easier to set up, safer to update, and less annoying to fix when something breaks. The biggest part of this was improving the update flow. After adding health checks, I worked on making updates more reliable by testing candidate containers before replacing the live API. This means ClarkLab can now check that the new version is actually healthy before switching over, instead of restarting and hoping it works. It should make updates more stble, especially when running it on your own server. I also spent time improving agent updates. Agents can now be updated using release binaries, and I added more work around prebuilt agent binaries, release patches, and version handling. This should make agent updates cleaner and less dependent on building everything manually on the target machine. Another big focus was setup. I added an api and Cloudflare setup wizard to make self-hosting easier. The goal is to guide people through the annoying parts like env setup, production configuration, Cloudflare tunnel setup, frontend variables, and install scripts. It is nowhere near perfect and used agentic assistance, but it is a big step toward making it easier to deploy without needing to manually configure every little option across multiple files. I also improved the node setup flow. There is now a cancel setup button, so if you start setting up a node and mess something up, you are not just stuck with a half-created node. I also patched several small bugs such as the node install command. For debugging, I updated agent logs to use the journal. This should make logs more useful and easier to understand when something goes wrong on a server. I thought this was important as i want this project to be usable for real infra. This feature is very much so in an early stage as i am nowhere near finished with it. There were also a bunch of security and maintenance fixes. I patched agent authentication, blocked node modification for users who are not sysadmins, strengthened password reset handling, reduced the chance of sensitive data being exposed through frontend logs, and tightened GitHub repo parsing. I also updated workflow permissions and CI checks so changes are safer. This devlog is again, not about new frontend features. It is mostly about making this project more stable, easier to deploy, and safer. The main thing I learned from the last ship is that setup still needs to be much easier, so I started moving toward a proper guided setup flow. I very much so want to keep improving that until someone can deploy ClarkLab without having to understand how it works completely first.
Ships:
I made the basis of Clark Lab, my in-house version of Coolify as an alternative to Vercel & Heroku, making it easy to deploy your own databases and apps from home. For security reasons the public demo is a youtube video showing off all of the projects features, you can very quickly and easily deploy the project for development via the read me in as little as two commands.
This ship was focused on making ClarkLab more stable, easier to set up, and easier to fix when something breaks. I improved the update flow by adding health-check based handling, so it can test a new version before switching over instead of jsut grabbing raw code. I also improved agent updates with release binaries, prebuilt binaries, version handling, and update patches. Setup was another big focus. I added an API and Cloudflare setup wizard to help with env setup, prod config, tunnels, frontend vars, and install scripts. It is still early, but it is a step toward making it much easier to self-host clarklab. I also improved node setup and reconnect behaviour. Online nodes can now be reconnected, unfinished node setups can be cancelled, and I fixed smaller issues around install commands, port notices, API banners, and frontend reconnect logic. Health checks were added for services, with frontend status shown in the service detail page. Agent logs now use the journal too, making debugging easier if something breaks. There were also security and general chore fixes, including agent auth patches, sysadmin-only node modification, stronger password reset handling, safer frontend logs, GitHub parsing fixes, and better CI/workflow checks. Overall, this ship was not about new features (even tho i added some small ones). It was about making my project easier to update and easier to deploy....

The final phase of this sprint was all about pushing the visual aesthetic to a premium arcade standard and overcoming the hurdle of accessibility. Instead of relying on flat, basic shapes, I completely overhauled the rendering logic to introduce true geometric depth. By utilizing advanced vector layering, drop shadows, and gloss highlights directly on the canvas, the bird now sports a vibrant 3D spherical look. The obstacles received a massive upgrade as well; the pipes are now modeled with authentic wide rim caps and custom gradient shading to mimic the nostalgic look of classic arcade games. Players can also fully personalize their experience right from the start menu using interactive on-screen buttons to swap between multiple sky themes like pink, light blue, and midnight black.The biggest breakthrough of this update, however, was figuring out how to bring this desktop application into the modern web ecosystem. Moving away from local Python execution, the project was successfully migrated onto a web framework using a Python Flask backend paired with an HTML5 Canvas frontend. This transition allows the game loop to execute flawlessly at a locked 60 frames per second right inside any web browser, eliminating lag and making the game instantly playable via a single cloud link. With precision collision boundaries fully locked down, dynamic acceleration curves scaling the difficulty every three points, and the live link officially deployed on Replit, the game is polished, optimized, and ready for the world to play. Time to ship it!"}, {"post_id": 20020, "ts": "2026-07-01T14:55:48Z", "hours": 3.5922, "text": "The primary milestone of this development cycle was transforming a loose, functional prototype into a structured, scalable application using Object-Oriented Programming (OOP). By encapsulating all game states—such as scores, velocities, and tracking arrays—inside a master FlappyBirdGame class, the architecture became self-contained, eliminating the risk of global variable pollution. A critical part of this refactoring involved dismantling the splintered, independent. after () loops that separately ran gravity, pipe movement, and scoring. These were consolidated into a single unified game_loop running at approximately 60 frames per second (~16ms). This master clock synchronizes all physics updates and collision checks simultaneously, removing the erratic micro-stutters from the previous version and delivering a noticeably smoother gameplay experience. In addition to structural overhaul, several game-breaking bugs and interface oversights were resolved. The disruptive terminal-based color input was entirely removed, replaced by an integrated canvas menu featuring clickable native tk.Frame buttons for interactive background selection. To fix an instant-death bug where the bird would plunge into the ground the millisecond the game started, an initial upward velocity pulse (FLAP_STRENGTH) was injected straight into the start sequence, giving the player immediate buoyancy and reaction time. Critical syntax errors were also squashed, including a casing typo that turned tk.Frame into an invalid lowercase property, and a keybind mismatch that wrongly mapped the “P” key to a non-existent method instead of the intended toggle_pause function.Finally, core mechanics were tuned to match genuine arcade standards. The superficial timer-based score keeper was abandoned; instead, pipes are now generated with unique geometric tags so that points are only awarded when the bird’s trailing horizontal boundary completely clears the obstacle.

Now working on the bird itself to try and make it look like an actual bird
The primary milestone of this development cycle was transforming a loose, functional prototype into a structured, scalable application using Object-Oriented Programming (OOP). By encapsulating all game states—such as scores, velocities, and tracking arrays—inside a master FlappyBirdGame class, the architecture became self-contained, eliminating the risk of global variable pollution. A critical part of this refactoring involved dismantling the splintered, independent. after () loops that separately ran gravity, pipe movement, and scoring. These were consolidated into a single unified game_loop running at approximately 60 frames per second (~16ms). This master clock synchronizes all physics updates and collision checks simultaneously, removing the erratic micro-stutters from the previous version and delivering a noticeably smoother gameplay experience. In addition to structural overhaul, several game-breaking bugs and interface oversights were resolved. The disruptive terminal-based color input was entirely removed, replaced by an integrated canvas menu featuring clickable native tk.Frame buttons for interactive background selection. To fix an instant-death bug where the bird would plunge into the ground the millisecond the game started, an initial upward velocity pulse (FLAP_STRENGTH) was injected straight into the start sequence, giving the player immediate buoyancy and reaction time. Critical syntax errors were also squashed, including a casing typo that turned tk.Frame into an invalid lowercase property, and a keybind mismatch that wrongly mapped the “P” key to a non-existent method instead of the intended toggle_pause function.Finally, core mechanics were tuned to match genuine arcade standards. The superficial timer-based score keeper was abandoned; instead, pipes are now generated with unique geometric tags so that points are only awarded when the bird’s trailing horizontal boundary completely clears the obstacle. A ceiling boundary collision check (b_y1 <= 0) was added to close a loophole where players could fly off-screen to bypass pipes entirely. To keep the gameplay loop engaging, a difficulty scaling mechanic was implemented to speed up the incoming pipes by 1.5 pixels every 3 points, while a session-wide high score counter was added to track and display the player’s best run. The iteration concludes with a polished game loop, stable crash boundaries, and a foundation ready for external asset implementation.
We have officially reached the finish line for Iteration 2 of Flappy Bird! The final phase of this sprint was all about pushing the visual aesthetic to a premium arcade standard and overcoming the hurdle of accessibility. Instead of relying on flat, basic shapes, I completely overhauled the rendering logic to introduce true geometric depth. By utilizing advanced vector layering, drop shadows, and gloss highlights directly on the canvas, the bird now sports a vibrant 3D spherical look. The obstacles received a massive upgrade as well; the pipes are now modeled with authentic wide rim caps and custom gradient shading to mimic the nostalgic look of classic arcade games. Players can also fully personalize their experience right from the start menu using interactive on-screen buttons to swap between multiple sky themes like pink, light blue, and midnight black.The biggest breakthrough of this update, however, was figuring out how to bring this desktop application into the modern web ecosystem. Moving away from local Python execution, the project was successfully migrated onto a web framework using a Python Flask backend paired with an HTML5 Canvas frontend. This transition allows the game loop to execute flawlessly at a locked 60 frames per second right inside any web browser, eliminating lag and making the game instantly playable via a single cloud link. With precision collision boundaries fully locked down, dynamic acceleration curves scaling the difficulty every three points, and the live link officially deployed on Replit, the game is polished, optimized, and ready for the world to play. Time to ship it!
Finally I read through peoples replies and feedback and I already knew the problem was gonna be with the gravity and flap strength, so after fixing that and also making the bird look a little better, I am finally done with this. Hopefully!
Ships:
I made a Flappy bird game and in this I tried to make it better and look nicer up to my coding knowledge. The hardest part was mainly the tkinter, I wanted to use this so I could learn more about this 3D graphics and stuff.
I made a flappy bird game, and I made some changes to it including the addition of new colors and the addition of a better-looking bird and especially the physics, most people commented on the physics, and I finally have fixed that part. I hope you like the better version/v2 of this game! Not the best at the game as you can see, my best is 43, try beating it!...

I’m working on a os on a web as part of a mission in stardance. I have so far just added some introduction about myself and added a little time and date indicator on the top right. And yeah its Breaking Bad themed so stay tuned i have some good ideas to implement.
I have made a lot of changes and forgot to make devlogs. I made a beautiful booting screen and also a beautiful intro screen. I also added a notes app which saves automatically.
I have made the Icon movable like an actual icon on a desktop. Also added a grid so that the icon snapped to a place like again a normal desktop. Also i have added local storage for this icon position so when you change the position of the icon and reload the website the icon will stay at the place you left it. I though it was cool. also for the people who find the boot screen appearing every time you can just change the dev mode true in Script.js and it’ll be bypassed. I planned a solution for this so stay tuned :)
These are the things i have done in this session: I created a terminal icon and gave it the same charecteristics as the notes icon. I added a reset button which makes the app icons go back to their previous place and this clears the local storage too. I significantly upgraded the dragging system and tbh i spent a really long time for this so please check this out. The icon won’t overlap now and also i gave them real desktop like behaviour. I also added desktop boundaries so that the icons dont go off screen.
Today I made the terminal window. As usual it will has all the characteristics of the notes window and also I tried to replicate a terminal design as much as possible. For now the terminal doesn’t work and it just gives the same output as what we type but ill work on that. But I this this was a good front end work.
I further worked on the terminal. Today i have added two things: The way the input and output is given in the terminal. Its very close to a standard terminal and acts like it. The cursor bar. I have added a distinct function masking the normal cursor bar with a terminal style cursor bar that works so nice. also for now the output of the commands(for now just text) is the input itself but in the next session im going to add official commands and a /help too :)
So today I made some commands for the terminal. /help gives you all the commands that WORK so feel free to fidget and I’m sure there should be no bugs but please let me know if there are any;)
So today i made some good and exciting changes. The changes that were made are: I made a Calendar that pops out when you click the date or time. I redesigned the topbar to kind of look like a taskbar I also made the buttons on the top bar better with animations and shadow. I hope whoever tries this out if any please give me some ideas to further add :)
This time i have added the feature to resize windows. its similar to normal windows resizing windows or linux.
Ships:
I havent completed it but i think this is a good milestone to ship it ad work on it in the future.
I made a breaking bad themed OS that’s running in a website. Also the part i was kind of stuck at was the terminal. It was hard trying to make it similar to a traditional on and that’s I’m most proud of too....

Devlogs:
Devlog #1 Additions to Index.html Wallpaper Top Bar Desktop Icons I have only worked on the index for now so it doesn’t have a UI.
Devlog #2: Index.html: Worked on Welcome window Worked on Garage window
Devlog #3 Worked on Style.css, went from a blank html OS to a OS with a visual interface. Next I will work on the script.js to develop the frontend
Devlog #4 Worked on the Script.js: The icons are now functional
Devlog #5: Made a cool welcome screen which looks like the start engine button in a car. Added a new application called “Lights Out” which tests the user’s reaction time.
Devlog #6: Cleaned up the Task Bar by making it look sleeker and make the icons more user friendly. Fixed bugs related to the next session counter.
Devlog #7: Final Updated ReadMe Hosted my project on netlify
Devlog #8: Improved taskbar spacing Added better icons for apps Improved overall UI Added a F1 quiz Added a app that shows all F1 world champions with how many WDC’s they won and in which years
Devlog #10 Highlights: New App: F1 2026 Calendar New App: 2026 F1 Cars New Wallpaper Updated Welcome app Removed Garage app due to issues F1 2026 Calendar: A app that basically shows the dates of every F1 weekend in 2026 all in 1 screen. 2026 F1 Cars: Shows the cars each constructor built for the 2026 F1 season.
Devlog #11: Deleted the old ReadMe and wrote a brand new one which reflects all the latest updates Made the F1 countdown bigger
Devlog #12 The header in the Champions app no longer sticks
Devlog #13 New databases: constructors.json drivers.json season.json teams.json laprecords.json New Apps: Drivers Standings A table of the drivers standings in the 2026 f1 season. Database used: drivers.json Constructor Standings A table of the constructors standings Database used: constructors.json Lap Records An app that shows information about the lap record at each track. Database used: laprecords.json F1 Calendar An app that shows the entire f1 calendar for 2026. Previously a similar app just showed an image, but this app uses a database to show accurate information. Database used: season.json F1 Teams An app that shows information about each F1 team. Database used: teams.json constructors.json: This database stores the position number, team name, and how many points every team has so far this F1 season. drivers.json: This database stores the position, name, country, team, and points for every driver. season.json: This database stores values for the following: round, country, city, month, days, flag, circuitMap. Round is the order of which f1 race weekends take place 1-24. Country is obviously the country the race weekend will take place. City is the city the race track is located. Month is the month the race weekend takes place, the days are the days the race weekend takes place, race weekends last 3 days. Day 1: practice 1 and 2, Day 2: practice 3 and quali, Day 3: grand prix. The value for flag and circuitMap are the path to the images for the country’s flag’s image and the circuit’s image. teams.json: This database contains values for the team’s name, team principal’s name, drivers names, the engine manufacturer, the car’s name, and paths to the logo and cars images. laprecords.json: This database contains information about the lap records for each track on the F1 calendar. It has values for: round #, race name, circuit, track length, lap record time, driver, team, year, image of the circuit, image of the country’s flag where the track is located.
Devlog #14 Added a 10 second video of f1 cars that transitions into the start os screen. Reworked the color scheme of the windows, header, countdown, start os screen, select time format screen. This was done to make the OS feel modern and clean. Changed the position of the buttons in the windows and make them size adjustable. Added a rectangular task bar with curved edges.
Devlog #15 Finally included details about the new databases and new apps since my last update to my ReadMe.
Ships:
I made a Operating system using html, JavaScript, and Css which runs on the browser. My operating system is called “RaceOS” because the theme is RaceCars. My project also features very unique features such as a count down to the next F1 session and the wallpaper matches the track of the following race week.
New Feature from what I submitted in WebOS 1: Live Drivers Standings using database. Live Constructors Standings using database. Live Lap Records using Database. F1 Calendar app now has more info about race weekends and uses a database instead of a static image. F1 Teams app which has information about each F1 team, using 2 databases collectively. A intro video that transitions to the Start OS screen. New color scheme for windows, header, countdown, etc. Windows can be horizontally and vertically stretched and shrunk....

Whenever someone clicked on try again or would reset the game, the counter in global for mingames would still remain the incremented value. Basically it would not be a new instance. So I hardcoded the values to what they are supposed to be in the beginning. it would also track hearts and if it became 0 once it would carry forward which i had to fix. The mailman is not supposed to be playable. I probably shouldnt have made it able to move by player but i did just in case but also caused an issue when it didnt remain in animation. so had to fix that crack. Also there would be errors in the console that while not game breaking would affect performance. it was due to the fov being under 1 after subtraction in tween. had to fix that. i thought my devlog after ship would be for more feature but ig im stuck on bugs. but ill continue working on this and my other project. still have to implement music, more minigames, and the full storyline.

I also finished the first 2D cutscene, added dialogue, and got the transition between the 3D intro and the 2D world working. Getting the animations to line up with the dialogue took a bit of tweaking, but it all flows much better now. Building the world I also started putting the actual game together. The tilemap is in place, the first environment is coming together, and I added the mailman character with working sprite animations. The next step is building his cutscene and the minigame that goes with it. Assets A lot of the art is still placeholder made by me for now. Finding good free assets with the right license takes time, so I’m using temporary sprites where needed. Some things, like the post box, are my own, and I’ll replace the placeholders with better assets later on. Music will also come much later in development.
Seven Minute Shadow - Devlog 4 Progress Been busy. I adjusted the mailman cutscene and finally got the core loop feeling like an actual game instead of a bunch of separate pieces. The minigame I fixed the heart subtraction system, so messing up now actually costs a life. I also added the proper fail states so the minigame knows when you’ve lost. I also made a general Level Info scene that can be shown before each minigame. It displays your lives, timer and a short instruction so you know what you’re supposed to do before starting. Scope For the first playable version, I’m aiming to finish 2 minigames . The full idea is 7 minigames , all connected by the story and narration. I want to spend more time on that side as I continue, although I probably make it sound more grand than it actually is. More to come.
Seven Minute Shadow - Devlog 5 The demo is out The first playable version is finally shipped. I added the second minigame and spent some time going back through the first one to fix bugs and make the transition between them actually work from start to finish. The ending The Game Over and Win scenes are now connected too. The current win screen is still temporary. It pulls the remaining hearts from global.gd and shows them as the score. For now, this is basically Ending 0: The Demo Ending . The plane still flies, the day went well, and that’s about as far as the ending goes for now. What’s next Now that the demo is playable, I can finally focus on the actual game. Music and sound effects Reworking my pixel art The remaining 5 minigames The proper story and endings The full game is planned around 7 minigames and 3 actual endings . The demo is just the starting point.
Seven Minute Shadow - devlog 6 . writing this out quick with no formatting First devlog after trying to ship, there are evident problems with even the v0.1 demo. Whenever someone clicked on try again or would reset the game, the counter in global for mingames would still remain the incremented value. Basically it would not be a new instance. So I hardcoded the values to what they are supposed to be in the beginning. it would also track hearts and if it became 0 once it would carry forward which i had to fix. The mailman is not supposed to be playable. I probably shouldnt have made it able to move by player but i did just in case but also caused an issue when it didnt remain in animation. so had to fix that crack. Also there would be errors in the console that while not game breaking would affect performance. it was due to the fov being under 1 after subtraction in tween. had to fix that. i thought my devlog after ship would be for more feature but ig im stuck on bugs. but ill continue working on this and my other project. still have to implement music, more minigames, and the full storyline. Anyways, i hope you find demo v0.2 interesting till then.
devlog - reworking the game I ended up reworking a lot of the game, and it’s definitely better than where it started. It is not the exact idea I came into this with . The current version is still pretty crude, but it’s now a proper playable game with 4 minigames, win and game over scenes, and an actual ending. This is still my first Godot game, so I’m going to keep it around as a benchmark for myself and see how much better I get over time. There is a storyline to it too. Do check it out guys and tell me how you liked it.
✦ BEFORE YOU RATE THIS ✦ or interact in whatever way the story is a little confusing without context. Seven Minute Shadow starts at 17:53 . At 18:00 , Kiyoshima will be bombed. You are just a postman trying to finish one last route before it happens. You cannot stop the bombing . You can only decide how much gets delivered before the seven minutes are over. That is basically the whole point of the game. Not saving the city. Not changing history. Just trying to finish something before there is no time left. and the end scene after the game over or you win scene is the same throughout. it is set in the future with the kiyoshima bombing archived, however many minigames you complete is the number of the letters that survived, and the letters that you can read.

Ships:
Seven Minute Shadow - Ship! 🚀 🎉 Finally shipped the first playable version! This is still a demo, but it has the complete gameplay loop: title screen → story → cutscenes → minigames → ending. It actually feels like a game now instead of a bunch of disconnected scenes. 🕹️ Right now there are 2 playable minigames connected together with lives, transitions, fail states and a temporary ending that scores you based on your remaining hearts, there is no best score because the minigames are a part of the story. A story which i have not fleshed out yet. It’s still a WarioWare game with some cutscenes in between. 🎭 A lot of the art is still bad. like very bad. ik i have to up my skills. And also there’s barely any music yet. I wanted to get something playable out first before spending time polishing everything. 📖 The full vision is still 7 minigames tied together by one story, with multiple endings depending on how well you play. This demo is basically the foundation for all of that. Thanks for playing! Time to get back to making the rest of the game. 🤌 Play the demo and tell me abt it.
Seven Minute Shadow - shipping I’ve attached a video so you can actually see the game in action. Seven Minute Shadow is a small historical fiction game built around a simple idea: the whole experience should take about 7 minutes . It’s not a huge game, and it’s definitely not trying to be one. The focus is on the little story behind it, the decisions you make while playing, and what those decisions leave behind. The ending itself cannot be changed. What can change is everything that happens before it, and what you leave behind. I made this as my first proper Godot game, so it’s still a pretty rough little project, but I’d really like people to try it and see what they take from it. **check it out. or check out the video on github. **...

Reworking the whole thing. I’ve been put off by the whole first version of the website so I decided to re-code the whole thing to make it look better since the first was a bit sloppy. I’ve added a nav bar and some info so far and I hope to get enough hours so I can get the campfire laptop bag before haven :)

Devlog #5: Creating Pong game After venturing on a lot of sidequests (HTM+CSS+JS), I’m back on Godot, baby! ngl, Godot is by far the simplest thing to code on. Plus, it’s really, really fun. I’ve managed to create my 3rd minigame: Pong game Goal: Keep bouncing the ball using your paddle for 30 seconds straight. If the ball leaves the screen, you lose a life.

So to solve that problem I switched my paddle from CharacterBody2D to StatucBody2D NOTE : You may not be able to see the timer. But the game will end within 30 second, trust me! It’s just so as to introduce as element of suspense.
Devlog #6: Created Flappy bird game Goal: Keep the bird in the air without hitting the pipes or the ground. Keep tapping on the screen to do so. Maintain this for 15 seconds straight to survive and move on to the next minigame. Else, you lose a life. Features I’ve added: 3 flappy birds for seamless animation Blue sky, green grass, white cloud background Endless scrolling of ground Code to generate new pair of pipes with the same magnitude of distance between them. (Just their positions on the y-axis change) Flap SFX (Same as jump and bounce effects) NOTE: I might change this minigame to the last one as I find this one to be of immense difficulty.
Devlog #7: Created a dino game Goal: Jump over cacti Just don’t get hit by a cactus! Survive for 15 seconds Features I’ve added: A jungle themed background 3d scrolling effect with Parallax background Cactus spawning and scrolling towards dino The dino remains still (all the player has to do is to jump over cactus as it scrolls near the dino) The game lasts for 15 seconds before moving onto the next. NOTE: The game seems easy to make, but it’s really hard. Might be easier to play compared to “Flappy Bird”.
Ships:
I made a warioware game called “Beyond the Nebula”. The player has to complete 2 minigames within the time allotted and not lose 5 lives in the process. Once the games are successfully completed, the player reaches safely back to Earth. Just so you know the game is not complete yet and I am planning to add more games in due time!
Beyond the Nebula A game full of short space-themed minigames! Survive to make it safely back to Earth. DISCLAIMER:- It is preferred to use a PC for better game performance. Thank you! How to Play You have 5 live and each round, a minigame is chosen to for you to beat. Complete the objective to survive. Fail and you lose a life. Lose all 5 and it’s game over. Minigames: #1 Platformer game - Collect all 3 stars within 10 seconds #2 Clicker game - Click all 7 stars within 7 seconds #3 Pong game - Bounce off the ball using your paddle for 30 seconds #4 Dino game - Jump over the cactus as it spawns and scrolls towards you. Survive for 20 seconds! (Use spacebar) #5 Flappy Bird - Fly between pipes. Survive for 15 seconds! Controls For Desktop/Laptop users: Left and Right -> Arrow buttons Jump -> Space bar For Mobile/Tablet users: Use the virtual joystick situated on the bottom left of the game screen NOTE: Mobile/Tablet users will not be able to play the 4th minigame i.e the DIno game. For that game only the spacebar button works in order to jump over cacti.

I am also happy about the fact that all of the components work together as it goes from the different game states, completing the game loop.
I made an interactive, hardware-driven slot machine featuring three physical reels, automated coin detection, a joystick lever mechanism, and a custom payout dispenser. Getting the physical wheels of the slot machine to spin was the first challenging part. I originally planned to have two Arduinos, one to control the wheels and one to control the rest of the components. However, I am not very experienced with Arduino communication, and it didn’t end up going anywhere. Instead, I had to go for the easiest solution, which was to wire everything to one Arduino instead, which had its caveats, such as not having enough pins. Also, making sure that the step motors did not jam was a huge issue, as we had a 12V 5A power supply that was on the lower end to power these motors that perform much better on 24V. To fix this, I ended up just running them at a slower speed and acceleration. The part I am most proud of is the look of the slot machine.

Started working on My Chess Engine! I am still learning how to effectively use Pygame for the board, but I have completed my research on how to build chess engines. I shall soon obtain all of the required skills for building the chessboard, but until then, I can’t wait to learn how to use PyGame! Wanted to learn it for a long time, but never had a reason to.
Been working on my Chess Engine Project. Today, I finished the basic chessboard! It has everything from Promotion to checkmate and even Stalemate. However, my next step (Before I start building the chess engine) will be to add advanced movements, such as Castling and En Passant, and to optimize my code (So that my future chess engine moves at a reasonable speed).
Hi Everyone! I finally finished the whole chess game, adding features such as Castling and En Passant. Next, I have started building a evaluation function, similar to those on chess websites, but wayyy worse. I hope to make it half decent before I move onto the final part of my project, the Search algorithm.
Finished the evaluation function for my Chess Engine project! While this is still barely comparable to Chess evaluation on websites like Chess.com, it is actually working reasonably well now! My next step will be to actually make the engine, though this will definitely be the hardest part of the project.
Finally built the first iteration of my Chess Engine. While still not being quite good at the game (Likely around 700-1000 elo) it is able to play chess reasonably and in fact, was able to checkmate my younger brother (9 years old). Now, I will be continuously improving this Chess Engine until it can beat me comfortably (1600 elo) and then we will see from there. The image below is the final position, with my brother as white, and the engine as black.
Improved the performance of my Chess Project, but now the movement speed of the engine has significantly gotten worse. I will now need to start working on improved efficiency for the engine. However, it does look to be playing at a level similar to mine, if not slightly better. We will see in a bit if it has continued to improve.
I’ve finished my Chess Engine for now! I have made the code more efficient, and the engine was able to beat a Chess.com 1600 bot comfortably, probably putting it on a higher skill level than myself. In the future, I may revisit this project, but for now, I will be working on another project. I also named it DumbFish, as a parody of the famous Chess Engine Stockfish
Made changes to DumbFish to make it easier for testing, as well as fixing a bug related to how the release worked. This will hopefully be my final work on DumbFish for now.
Ships:
Shipped DumbFish! While I may improve the bot further on in the future, I feel quite content where it currently is, and I wish to move onto other projects. Let me know if you have any feedback for me!
Added a few more features to DumbFish, to ensure that it is ready! They are now also part of the newest release, feel free to try them out. Still only Mac exclusive though, but this is a goal for next years stardance challenge. Even Magnus gotta be worried by my progress....

The fast_math option drops critical precision bits during accumulator addition which was causing the MoE kernels to completely obliterate the trajectory. I disabled it globally using fast_math=False , and this instantly restored our cosine similarity to a perfect 1.000000 over the entire benchmark trajectory. The VRAM Bottleneck: When relying purely on MXFP4 experts, they required over 9.5 GB, breaking the 6.6 GiB budget and forcing the runtime to stream them via PCIe (which tanks performance down to ~5-10tok/s). The Q2 and Q1 low-bit expert decoding kernels actually achieve identical numerical accuracy to the baseline while aggressively packing the weights. The 97.87 tok/s Optimization: I configured bench.py and check_baseline_cosine.py to use: packed_expert_q1_layers=\"0:24\" : All 24 layers of MoE experts are now tightly packed into 1-bit Q1 structures, shrinking the expert memory footprint down to just 2.38 GB (from 9.52 GB). dense_int4_layers=\"all\" : Shrunk the non-expert dense projection weights (Q, K, V, O) into INT4, dropping their footprint from ~1.1 GB to ~0.27 GB. Since the entire model now takes 5.29 GiB (fitting entirely within the 6.6 GiB budget), all layers are pinned directly to VRAM. Because zero layers are streamed (any_streamed=False), the runtime successfully builds the fully fused cuda_graphs execution path, accelerating generation from a crawl to 97.87 tok/s ON gpt-oss-20b.

This worked successfully and fully restored the model’s coherent output without breaking graph logic. Experimented with MLP Block Sizing: I attempted to increase block_m and num_warps in the 1-bit Triton kernel (mxfp_lowbit_selected_swiglu) to reduce redundant memory loads of the intermediate x tensor. Unfortunately, register limits and memory layout meant it actually resulted in worse throughput, so I reverted those changes.

The Symptoms When running inference/benchmarks on unquantized models (like Qwen3.5-9B) using the Triton backend on laptop GPUs (e.g., RTX 5050), the runtime encountered two asynchronous CUDA faults: • cudaErrorIllegalAddress (Illegal memory access) during cache eviction. • device-side assert triggered ( indexSelectSmallIndex assertion failed) during embedding vocabulary lookups. 2. The Root Cause (Resource Starvation & Memory Corruption) Wide Layer Geometries: In Qwen3.5, the projection matrices (Query, Key, Value) have a columns dimension of cols = 3584 . Triton Padded Tiling: Triton pads non-power-of-two shapes to the next power of two ( BLOCK_N = 4096 ). Static Tile Size: The default Triton config mapping uses BLOCK_M = 64 for wide matrices. This instructs Triton to compile a kernel loading a massive static tile size of 64 × 4096 = 262,144 elements. Register & Shared Memory Overflow: In FP32 accumulation, this tile requires 1 MB of memory per thread block. However, laptop GPU streaming multiprocessors (SMs) have a physical hardware limit of 96KB–100KB of shared memory/register files. The Failure Cascade: The compiler failed to allocate resources cleanly, resulting in severe register spills and memory read violations. Triton silently returned corrupted/NaN outputs. The subsequent argmax logit lookup generated a garbage token index (out of bounds), which triggered the PyTorch device-side assertion on the next step. 3. The Fix (Dynamic Chunked Looping) To prevent resource starvation, we modified Triton’s launching configuration in triton_kernels.py: Wide Column Routing: Added a check to detect if cols > 2048 . Looped Execution: Instead of loading the entire 4096 columns block statically, we force the kernel to execute _matvec_looped_kernel using a chunk size of BLOCK_N = 512 . Memory Optimization: The kernel loops through the columns sequentially in chunks of 512. This drops the tile size memory requirement per block to under 64 KB, which safely fits inside any laptop GPU’s physical SM limits. 4.

Benchmark Execution Workflow Benchmarks are run in isolated, dedicated Python processes for each engine (ThinTensor vs. Hugging Face Transformers) to prevent memory leakage or process interference: ThinTensor Baseline : The model is loaded via the thin_runtime.py engine. Weight Fit Planning : The runtime runs _automatic_fit_plan to estimate weight size. If the model’s weights do not fit within the available GPU VRAM (accounting for system/display manager overhead), it dynamically configures streaming weight residency ( --weight-residency stream ) and streams layers/experts block-by-block from CPU/RAM to the GPU. If the weights fit, it uses fully resident weights ( --weight-residency all ). Timing : Prefills the prompt (default “Hello”), decodes a number of warmup tokens (default 10) to initialize caches and compile/warm up Triton kernels, and then times the next decode steps (default 200) using wall-clock time ( time.perf_counter() ). Transformers (Hugging Face) Baseline : The model is loaded via a dedicated script bench_hf_transformers_decode.py in BF16 precision. RAM/CPU Offloading : For larger models (e.g. Gemma-4-E2B, OLMoE), loading the model fully on memory-constrained GPUs (like the RTX 5050 Laptop GPU with 7.57 GiB VRAM) causes CUDA OOM. To prevent OOM, RAM offloading is enabled via device_map=\"auto\" . Weights that exceed VRAM capacity are kept in CPU system RAM and loaded/swapped as needed. Timing : Like ThinTensor, it pre-runs a prompt prefill, decodes warmup tokens (default 10), and then times steps (default 200) decode steps. The decode loop avoids GPU-to-CPU synchronization (e.g. calling .item() inside the timed loop) to measure pure GPU decoding speed. 2. Metrics & Scores Calculation Thin/HF Peak GiB (Peak GPU Memory) : Tracks peak allocated VRAM in GiB using torch.cuda.max_memory_allocated() . This measures active tensors allocated by PyTorch’s allocator during the decode phase (excluding unallocated cache reserve or general display server memory). Min Cosine (Cosine Similarity) : In compare_hf_thin_logits.py , the logits of the final linear projection layer are collected for both models. Cosine similarity is calculated for the target token index at each step. The minimum cosine similarity found across all decode steps (e.g., step 1 and step 10) and prefill lengths (e.g., 1 and 128) is reported. Top-1 Match : A boolean check indicating whether the token ID with the highest probability (highest logit value) is identical between ThinTensor and HF at all decode steps. Top-5 Set : A boolean check indicating whether the set of top-5 highest-probability token IDs is identical between the two models at all steps (ignoring their internal sorted order). Top-5 Order : A boolean check indicating whether the exact sorted order of the top-5 token IDs matches between ThinTensor and HF at all steps. KV Retention : Specifies the KV cache precision format (e.g. full BF16 )."}, {"post_id": 24052, "ts": "2026-07-07T10:55:07Z", "hours": 5.2325, "text": "Dev Log #4 — 91–96 tok/s with Selective MXFP4 This was the first ThinTensor run that felt genuinely fast. On SmolLM3-3B, the selective MXFP4 gate/up profile reached around: ~91–96 tok/s and on the strong tested record it still preserved: cosine_similarity: 0.9994624257087708 top1_same: true top5_overlap: 0.8 generated_token_match_rate: 0.875 KV retention: full BF16 That cosine is extremely close to the HF BF16 reference: 1.0 - 0.9994624257087708 = 0.0005375742912292 So the run was only about 0.054% away from perfect cosine on that tested checkpoint. Why this was not just normal quantization The profile was selective: MXFP4 gate/up layers: 0:24 MXFP4 row postscale: enabled LM head: FP8 guarded path KV cache: full BF16 attention path: causal KV QKV/O/down: not blindly pushed into MXFP4 A full MXFP4 sweep over QKV, O, down, and gate/up was fast, but it destroyed the logits. That proved the obvious thing: fewer bytes alone is not enough. ThinTensor’s win comes from being role-aware. The runtime knows what each tensor does: Q / K / V O projection gate projection up projection down projection norm embedding LM head KV cache That means the runtime can apply aggressive precision only to the parts that tolerate it. For this result, the safe target was the MLP gate/up path. Why gate/up was the right target Single-token decoding is mostly a weight-read problem. Tthe goal became: reduce gate/up bytes keep attention stable keep KV exact keep LM head guarded preserve token ranking That is exactly what the selective MXFP4 profile does. It uses MXFP4 on the gate/up projections for layers 0:24 , but it does not blindly lower every sensitive path. Where Blackwell helps The test GPU is an RTX 5050 laptop GPU, which is Blackwell. That matters because Blackwell has native low-precision paths for FP4/MXFP4-style execution. ThinTensor uses this through Triton kernels that treat MXFP4 as an execution format, not just a smaller storage format. The idea is: store/read fewer bytes use block scales multiply against BF16 activations accumulate safely then apply row postscale The goal is to make each token cheaper to decode while keeping the output distribution close to HF BF16. The code side The relevant code is built around these ideas: 1. Honest quantization descriptors The QuantizationDescriptor describes the source format: method storage_dtype bits group_size scale_dtype zero_point modules_to_not_convert source_config For example: INT4 != FP4 Q8 != FP8 MXFP4 != generic Q4 The precision_ladder() function makes that explicit. It lists safe choices, opt-in choices, and lossy choices. So instead of silently lowering precision, the runtime can say: preserve native format fallback to BF16 or require explicit validation before requantization 2. Execution planning plan_quantization() decides what should happen at runtime. It can choose: preserve source storage use native kernel dequantize to BF16 or reject unsupported requantization The important flag is this: exact_storage_preserved If this is true, the runtime is using the source encoding directly.

Dev Log #1 — Why ThinTensor Exists SafeTensors is already a very good format for what it was designed to do: store tensors safely. It keeps tensor metadata simple.

ThinTensor quality FP8 was ~2.6x faster than HF BF16. ThinTensor quality FP8 was faster than the measured Q8 baseline while preserving much better logit fidelity. This is where ThinTensor stopped being just an archive experiment and started looking like a real inference runtime :D
Initial benchmarks based on some testing on a 3B model Why response similarity? Because we are making a storage format not “just” a runtime, so we need to ensure the model we are optimizing using thintensor runtime it HAS to be replying with the same responses like the original model! So with casual Kv implemented these are the benchmarks i gathered, if you wanna learn what quality fp8 is read my last devlog :D PS- the vram usage on our ThinTensor quality FP8 is just 500 mb more than the q8 even though there is a HUGE difference in the response similarity
Just hit 91tk/s with “cosine_similarity”: 0.9994624257087708 its actually crazy its like 5x faster the hf full devlog comming soon! ITS LIKE 0.054% away from perfect!!! The selective MXFP4 gate/up profile reached ~96 tok/s while preserving top-1 on the tested SmolLM3-3B through my thintensor runtimeeeee Full DevLogs gonna be crazy
Dev Log #4 — 91–96 tok/s with Selective MXFP4 This was the first ThinTensor run that felt genuinely fast. On SmolLM3-3B, the selective MXFP4 gate/up profile reached around: ~91–96 tok/s and on the strong tested record it still preserved: cosine_similarity: 0.9994624257087708 top1_same: true top5_overlap: 0.8 generated_token_match_rate: 0.875 KV retention: full BF16 That cosine is extremely close to the HF BF16 reference: 1.0 - 0.9994624257087708 = 0.0005375742912292 So the run was only about 0.054% away from perfect cosine on that tested checkpoint. Why this was not just normal quantization The profile was selective: MXFP4 gate/up layers: 0:24 MXFP4 row postscale: enabled LM head: FP8 guarded path KV cache: full BF16 attention path: causal KV QKV/O/down: not blindly pushed into MXFP4 A full MXFP4 sweep over QKV, O, down, and gate/up was fast, but it destroyed the logits. That proved the obvious thing: fewer bytes alone is not enough. ThinTensor’s win comes from being role-aware. The runtime knows what each tensor does: Q / K / V O projection gate projection up projection down projection norm embedding LM head KV cache That means the runtime can apply aggressive precision only to the parts that tolerate it. For this result, the safe target was the MLP gate/up path. Why gate/up was the right target Single-token decoding is mostly a weight-read problem. Tthe goal became: reduce gate/up bytes keep attention stable keep KV exact keep LM head guarded preserve token ranking That is exactly what the selective MXFP4 profile does. It uses MXFP4 on the gate/up projections for layers 0:24 , but it does not blindly lower every sensitive path. Where Blackwell helps The test GPU is an RTX 5050 laptop GPU, which is Blackwell. That matters because Blackwell has native low-precision paths for FP4/MXFP4-style execution. ThinTensor uses this through Triton kernels that treat MXFP4 as an execution format, not just a smaller storage format. The idea is: store/read fewer bytes use block scales multiply against BF16 activations accumulate safely then apply row postscale The goal is to make each token cheaper to decode while keeping the output distribution close to HF BF16. The code side The relevant code is built around these ideas: 1. Honest quantization descriptors The QuantizationDescriptor describes the source format: method storage_dtype bits group_size scale_dtype zero_point modules_to_not_convert source_config For example: INT4 != FP4 Q8 != FP8 MXFP4 != generic Q4 The precision_ladder() function makes that explicit. It lists safe choices, opt-in choices, and lossy choices. So instead of silently lowering precision, the runtime can say: preserve native format fallback to BF16 or require explicit validation before requantization 2. Execution planning plan_quantization() decides what should happen at runtime. It can choose: preserve source storage use native kernel dequantize to BF16 or reject unsupported requantization The important flag is this: exact_storage_preserved If this is true, the runtime is using the source encoding directly. Whats next I would have to implement all mainstream model archs manually because all are diff, and like right now you can see, there are a lot of models that are heavily un-optimized Also im messaging stardance team on slack these devlogs too smol for me
Finished benchmarking a few more models Hitting really really good tk/s when compared to hf that even fails to load the models on my 8gb vram, so its a HUGE improvement for gpu poor ppl like me 😭 Reason a lot less improvement for many models is that, each model has a different structure and i havent been able to make a generalized algorithm that would work for all, so for now, we are working with just a simple implementation Benchmark Methodology and Metrics Calculation To ensure accurate, robust, and reproducible results, the benchmarking and correctness scoring flow is executed as follows: 1. Benchmark Execution Workflow Benchmarks are run in isolated, dedicated Python processes for each engine (ThinTensor vs. Hugging Face Transformers) to prevent memory leakage or process interference: ThinTensor Baseline : The model is loaded via the thin_runtime.py engine. Weight Fit Planning : The runtime runs _automatic_fit_plan to estimate weight size. If the model’s weights do not fit within the available GPU VRAM (accounting for system/display manager overhead), it dynamically configures streaming weight residency ( --weight-residency stream ) and streams layers/experts block-by-block from CPU/RAM to the GPU. If the weights fit, it uses fully resident weights ( --weight-residency all ). Timing : Prefills the prompt (default “Hello”), decodes a number of warmup tokens (default 10) to initialize caches and compile/warm up Triton kernels, and then times the next decode steps (default 200) using wall-clock time ( time.perf_counter() ). Transformers (Hugging Face) Baseline : The model is loaded via a dedicated script bench_hf_transformers_decode.py in BF16 precision. RAM/CPU Offloading : For larger models (e.g. Gemma-4-E2B, OLMoE), loading the model fully on memory-constrained GPUs (like the RTX 5050 Laptop GPU with 7.57 GiB VRAM) causes CUDA OOM. To prevent OOM, RAM offloading is enabled via device_map="auto" . Weights that exceed VRAM capacity are kept in CPU system RAM and loaded/swapped as needed. Timing : Like ThinTensor, it pre-runs a prompt prefill, decodes warmup tokens (default 10), and then times steps (default 200) decode steps. The decode loop avoids GPU-to-CPU synchronization (e.g. calling .item() inside the timed loop) to measure pure GPU decoding speed. 2. Metrics & Scores Calculation Thin/HF Peak GiB (Peak GPU Memory) : Tracks peak allocated VRAM in GiB using torch.cuda.max_memory_allocated() . This measures active tensors allocated by PyTorch’s allocator during the decode phase (excluding unallocated cache reserve or general display server memory). Min Cosine (Cosine Similarity) : In compare_hf_thin_logits.py , the logits of the final linear projection layer are collected for both models. Cosine similarity is calculated for the target token index at each step. The minimum cosine similarity found across all decode steps (e.g., step 1 and step 10) and prefill lengths (e.g., 1 and 128) is reported. Top-1 Match : A boolean check indicating whether the token ID with the highest probability (highest logit value) is identical between ThinTensor and HF at all decode steps. Top-5 Set : A boolean check indicating whether the set of top-5 highest-probability token IDs is identical between the two models at all steps (ignoring their internal sorted order). Top-5 Order : A boolean check indicating whether the exact sorted order of the top-5 token IDs matches between ThinTensor and HF at all steps. KV Retention : Specifies the KV cache precision format (e.g. full BF16 ).
Final benchmarks Smaller models have lower cosine because there are like really small like 1B but, some archs are still not fully optimized to run at a good bit faster speed, ik, but i would want to do a ship before working on getting the speed up on those
Posted about this on reddit! https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLM/comments/1uqr1o3/i_made_a_llm_storage_format_that_makes_llms_run/ Got a lot of feedback, gonna try to work over it over the next few weeks
Devlog: Resolving GPU Memory Corruption & CUDA Assertions on Wide Matvecs 1. The Symptoms When running inference/benchmarks on unquantized models (like Qwen3.5-9B) using the Triton backend on laptop GPUs (e.g., RTX 5050), the runtime encountered two asynchronous CUDA faults: • cudaErrorIllegalAddress (Illegal memory access) during cache eviction. • device-side assert triggered ( indexSelectSmallIndex assertion failed) during embedding vocabulary lookups. 2. The Root Cause (Resource Starvation & Memory Corruption) Wide Layer Geometries: In Qwen3.5, the projection matrices (Query, Key, Value) have a columns dimension of cols = 3584 . Triton Padded Tiling: Triton pads non-power-of-two shapes to the next power of two ( BLOCK_N = 4096 ). Static Tile Size: The default Triton config mapping uses BLOCK_M = 64 for wide matrices. This instructs Triton to compile a kernel loading a massive static tile size of 64 × 4096 = 262,144 elements. Register & Shared Memory Overflow: In FP32 accumulation, this tile requires 1 MB of memory per thread block. However, laptop GPU streaming multiprocessors (SMs) have a physical hardware limit of 96KB–100KB of shared memory/register files. The Failure Cascade: The compiler failed to allocate resources cleanly, resulting in severe register spills and memory read violations. Triton silently returned corrupted/NaN outputs. The subsequent argmax logit lookup generated a garbage token index (out of bounds), which triggered the PyTorch device-side assertion on the next step. 3. The Fix (Dynamic Chunked Looping) To prevent resource starvation, we modified Triton’s launching configuration in triton_kernels.py: Wide Column Routing: Added a check to detect if cols > 2048 . Looped Execution: Instead of loading the entire 4096 columns block statically, we force the kernel to execute _matvec_looped_kernel using a chunk size of BLOCK_N = 512 . Memory Optimization: The kernel loops through the columns sequentially in chunks of 512. This drops the tile size memory requirement per block to under 64 KB, which safely fits inside any laptop GPU’s physical SM limits. 4. Results I am currently running the final profiles ( max-performance and max-max-perf ). Let me check on the status!
Worked over a LOT of stuff, like doing apples to apples comparisions of models such as LLama 11b vision instruct, So over time I fixed a lot of stuff added a new profile, that quants and quants and quants all layers till the model fits your VRAM, it doesnt care if the model is 20gb in weigths and you have a 8gb vram, it will quant and make it fit So testing this autofit profile on LLama 11b vision instruct, heres what i found it hit a cosine of 0.939758 and around 24tk/s on a 200 token test Similarly i tested ollama Llama 11b vision instruct with q4_k_m quant, it got a cosine close to 0.720495 i would say it would be more closer to 0.8 because this cosine was for only top 20 logprobes that ollama exposes This was done on 8gb vram rtx 5050 laptop 32gb ddr 5 ryzen 7 250 arch linux and the comparision is apples to apples because the thinruntime also quanted the model aggressively
ThinRuntime GPT-OSS-20B now achieves: 50.3445 tok/s median across three explicit 200-token runs. llama.cpp b9964 Q4_K_M: 40.3631 tok/s mean. ThinRuntime is 24.73% faster. Exact embedding and LM head; Q1/Q2 applies only to experts. Zero expert transfers during decode. Top-1 unchanged through step 4. Cosine: 0.987376 step 1, 0.983299 step 4. Accepted one-step configuration: 0.991415 cosine. llama.cpp Q4_K_M source-relative cosine: 0.792350.
This devlog retains the apples-to-apples GPT-OSS control plus fresh Qwen3.5-9B, Llama 3.2 11B text-path, OpenReasoning-Nemotron-14B, and Phi-4 A LOT of optimizations were done to achive this results and 100s of benchmarks in different profiles and stuff, to get to this final table
Final devlog: I would be moving from this project to other cool stuff i have in mind, the final benchmarks i got and everything, is pushed, had to do a lot of improvements to get bigger models running just as good as small ones I know there can be a lot of other optmizations, but maybe a few months later ill come back to this, but for now, its gonna stay as is.
Devlog-idk atp Well i said that i would stop working on this project last devlog, butttt, i just saw this https://github.com/random-unknown-username/Thintensor/issues/1 Someone tried thintensor on a 128gb unified ram DGX spark, ANDDDDD now i wanna make it good enough like so its a finished thing
Implemented a huge list of fixes Lazy page-ID tensor resolution after quantization Storage-alias-aware VRAM accounting Correct affine INT4 partial-group quantization KV sequence continuity checks Free-page geometry invalidation Canonical LM-head bias and final-softcap handling Certified shortlist logic with exact fallback Gemma-style attention scaling/softcap fixes Removal of hot-path CUDA scalar tensor allocations Device normalization for “cuda”, “cuda:N”, and torch.device Profile separation has been reconnected and different profiles select different kernels. Paged KV storage exists through SlabbedKVCache. A prior paged-attention slowdown was caused by GPU synchronization from .item() calls in SlabbedKVCache.append(), not by paged addressing itself. Logical page ownership is now tracked CPU-side to avoid those synchronizations. Paged attention has measured approximately: Materialized: 55.1 tok/s Paged: 57.5 tok/s on a relevant smaller models
What I’ve Done: Fixed KV Cache Indexing in Graph Mode: The previous cudaErrorStreamCaptureUnsupported error and out-of-bounds access were caused by assigning python integers dynamically during capture, and failing to respect block sizing. I modified the KV cache’s _in_graph_mode behavior to compute the tensor-based slot offset dynamically ((slot % block_size).view(1)) directly inside the graph capture. This worked successfully and fully restored the model’s coherent output without breaking graph logic. Experimented with MLP Block Sizing: I attempted to increase block_m and num_warps in the 1-bit Triton kernel (mxfp_lowbit_selected_swiglu) to reduce redundant memory loads of the intermediate x tensor. Unfortunately, register limits and memory layout meant it actually resulted in worse throughput, so I reverted those changes. Experimented with Attention Loop Early Exit: The single_token_gqa_attention_kernel is statically unrolled up to token_bucket (256). I tried adding a dynamic while loop to break early for short context sizes, but Triton’s compiler handles static for loops much better. reached around 65tk/s on gpt-oss-20b, constantly improvising MoE performance, next ima lock in for dense models but for now on MoE
what I did to fix the numerical drift & get some speedups: The Root Cause of the Drift (The Cosine Fix): I discovered that in triton_kernels.py , the tl.dot_scaled call inside _mxfp_lowbit_selected_tensorcore_matvec_kernel (and the mxfp4 variant) had fast_math=True . The fast_math option drops critical precision bits during accumulator addition which was causing the MoE kernels to completely obliterate the trajectory. I disabled it globally using fast_math=False , and this instantly restored our cosine similarity to a perfect 1.000000 over the entire benchmark trajectory. The VRAM Bottleneck: When relying purely on MXFP4 experts, they required over 9.5 GB, breaking the 6.6 GiB budget and forcing the runtime to stream them via PCIe (which tanks performance down to ~5-10tok/s). The Q2 and Q1 low-bit expert decoding kernels actually achieve identical numerical accuracy to the baseline while aggressively packing the weights. The 97.87 tok/s Optimization: I configured bench.py and check_baseline_cosine.py to use: packed_expert_q1_layers="0:24" : All 24 layers of MoE experts are now tightly packed into 1-bit Q1 structures, shrinking the expert memory footprint down to just 2.38 GB (from 9.52 GB). dense_int4_layers="all" : Shrunk the non-expert dense projection weights (Q, K, V, O) into INT4, dropping their footprint from ~1.1 GB to ~0.27 GB. Since the entire model now takes 5.29 GiB (fitting entirely within the 6.6 GiB budget), all layers are pinned directly to VRAM. Because zero layers are streamed (any_streamed=False), the runtime successfully builds the fully fused cuda_graphs execution path, accelerating generation from a crawl to 97.87 tok/s ON gpt-oss-20b. I believe ill be moving to dense models just about now All these issues took SOOO many tests to find
I ammmm tierdd i tried a billionn things over the last 8 hours i just cant seem to understand why gemma4 doesnt want to workkkkk I dont have much to write in this devlog, other than, i am not gonna implement gemma arch for now
ThinTensor Improvements Universal semantic-IR runtime for mixed attention, dense and MoE architectures. Per-tensor precision, kernel and residency planning instead of layer-wide quantization. Production FP8, INT4, MXFP4, Q2 and Q1 quantizers with calibration-aware scoring. Hard ≥0.995 cosine certification with exact routing, greedy-token and KV checks. Qwen3.5 hybrid linear-attention, shared-expert and packed rank-3 MoE support. Durable grouped-INT4 expert sidecars with bounded-RAM, mmap-based construction. Fixed four-matrix Triton projection, cuda / cuda:0 , layer-zero and converter-role bugs. Improved fused kernels, KV caching, expert routing and decode hot paths. Strict cache identity across model, tokenizer, GPU, CUDA, kernels and calibration. Remaining goal: prove ≥30 tok/s on Qwen3.5-35B-A3B at certified ≥0.995 cosine. Getting way better speed on 27B dense models at a cosine that is also way better
Hitting 100hrs and final ship Didnt get time to work on this idea, since quite the while. And it has js about reached the state i can probably get it to MoE arch works, dense models work, cpu/gpu streaming works well, context/kv cache is also dynamically quanted lm_head quants are also there now The motivation really died out because of this project not getting reviewed its been over a month, leaving this as is, tho its not perfect, but it js about has enough features that i wanted Here are the final results after a ton of benchmarking- Phi-4: ThinTensor 28.21 tok/s vs llama.cpp 17.50 tok/s — 1.61× faster (+61.2%). Quality: 0.999949 cosine vs 0.997281. OpenReasoning-Nemotron-14B: ThinTensor 23.79 tok/s vs llama.cpp 19.79 tok/s — 1.20× faster (+20.2%). Quality: 0.999533 vs 0.967140. Llama 3.2 11B: ThinTensor 41.02 tok/s vs llama.cpp 39.82 tok/s — 1.03× faster (+3.0%). Quality: 0.995095 vs 0.991938. Qwen3.5-9B: ThinTensor 43.28 tok/s vs llama.cpp 42.83 tok/s — 1.01× faster (+1.1%). Quality: 0.973334 vs 0.894908. GPT-OSS-20B: ThinTensor 50.34 tok/s vs llama.cpp 40.36 tok/s — 1.25× faster (+24.7%). Quality: 0.983299 vs 0.792350. *all are apples to apples btw Overall: ThinTensor beats llama.cpp Q4 throughput on 5/5 tested architectures , with a geometric-mean speedup of approximately 1.203× . Probably gonna take a break, and learn before comming back to this, after the ship-2 on stardance!
Fixed a few Dense path issues, because the MoE path somehow made the dense path completely usable, fixed a few small one line bugs i got to know from the last ship’s reviews, read to for ship 2!!
Ships:
I made ThinTensor, a runtime-aware LLM archive and inference runtime. Instead of only storing tensor bytes, it stores tensor roles, memory pages, quant metadata, and execution hints so the runtime can choose faster kernels and precision paths. The hardest part was keeping speed gains honest with HF correctness checks. So far it reaches up to ~94 tok/s on SmolLM3-3B with full BF16 KV retention and high logit similarity. After being tested on multiple models, you can get a avg 2x performance increase on most LLM archs, all archs are still not implemented, ik but this is workable with qwen, gemma, some MoE models, and SmolLM and a most others, but it wont be as optimized for all the model types Follow the guide at https://github.com/random-unknown-username/Thintensor#fast-path-setting-up-on-a-new-laptop To install thintensor runtime and use this guide to get a sample qwen model up and running https://github.com/random-unknown-username/Thintensor#quickstart-downloading--running-a-sample-model-qwen-08b
Its a runtime-aware LLM archive format built for fast, efficient inference, This ship basically integrates MoE model paths, that allows you to run models like gpt-oss-20B on speeds and quality faster and better than llama.cpp!! (at q4) its not just the storage format that allows for the improvements, its a combination of different selective layers being quantized with the better storage format, allowing to run inference with higher speed and quality than just simple q8,q4 etc quants. the storage format only gain is only like 10%, but combined with middle out fp8 quants, and even int4 for some performance profiles, it can reach better speeds than the other ways to run inference This does not beat TRT / TRT LM, it does allow for quicker inference, and a more portable solution because for TRT you need to compile the plan (one time) for a few mins before being able to run the model, and it has to be compiled on every machine you run the model on, thintensor allows you to directly have the .thin file and run it on any machine with similar results! and it takes just a few seconds compared to about 30 mins on trt and trt lm reddit post for this project- https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLM/comments/1uqr1o3/i_made_a_llm_storage_format_that_makes_llms_run/ independent tester’s view- https://github.com/random-unknown-username/Thintensor/issues/1 Let me know if u find any issues, tried a lot of other models here too, as u can see in the graphs :D let me know of any bugs on slack...

The idea was dead simple from the start — I just wanted something that reads my PDFs and gives me a summary so I don’t have to. That’s it. Didn’t think it would turn into this whole thing. But man, the number of times this project almost broke me… The biggest headache was the AI APIs. I started with Gemini because it was the easiest to set up. Worked great for like two days. Then the quota limits hit. Every. Single. Time. So I had to completely restructure the backend to support multiple providers. Now it tries Groq first, falls back to OpenRouter, and if both fail, Gemini is the last resort. Took way too long to get this right but honestly it’s the most solid part of the app now. Then there was the JSON parsing nightmare. You’d think AI models would return clean JSON when you ask them to. They don’t. They really don’t.

Started building DeepRead Today I set up the project and got the basic structure ready Created the GitHub repository Set up the FastAPI backend Created the frontend Built the first homepage with a PDF upload section Added the basic upload flow on the frontend Next, I’ll connect the upload button to the backend and start processing PDF files.
Connected the frontend with the backend Got the first end-to-end feature working today. Users can now select a PDF, upload it from the website, and the backend saves it successfully. It took a bit of debugging, but the upload flow is now working as expected. Next is extracting text from the uploaded PDF so DeepRead can start understanding the document.
Started reading uploaded PDFs Today I added the first step of PDF processing. After uploading a PDF, DeepRead now extracts the text and returns a preview. This is the foundation for summaries, search, question answering, and the knowledge graph that I’ll build next.
Devlog #Final – DeepRead is Done (Finally) I can’t believe I’m actually writing this. After weeks of “just one more bug” and “why is this not working”, DeepRead is actually complete. Like, functional complete. Not “it works on my machine” complete. The idea was dead simple from the start — I just wanted something that reads my PDFs and gives me a summary so I don’t have to. That’s it. Didn’t think it would turn into this whole thing. But man, the number of times this project almost broke me… The biggest headache was the AI APIs. I started with Gemini because it was the easiest to set up. Worked great for like two days. Then the quota limits hit. Every. Single. Time. So I had to completely restructure the backend to support multiple providers. Now it tries Groq first, falls back to OpenRouter, and if both fail, Gemini is the last resort. Took way too long to get this right but honestly it’s the most solid part of the app now. Then there was the JSON parsing nightmare. You’d think AI models would return clean JSON when you ask them to. They don’t. They really don’t. Sometimes there’d be extra text before the JSON, sometimes missing brackets, sometimes completely wrong format. Spent hours writing fallback parsers for that stuff. And don’t even get me started on the frontend. There was this one bug where the flashcards would show data from a PREVIOUS PDF.

Small Improvements Spent some more time improving DeepRead today.I wasn’t adding any major features, but I cleaned up the project and fixed a few small issues that I noticed while testing. I also improved the AI fallback logic a bit and organized some backend files to make the code easier to maintain. I tested the upload, summary and flashcard flow a few more times to make sure everything works smoothly before wrapping up the project. Nothing huge today, just polishing the project and making it more stable. There are still a few ideas I want to work on later, but I’m happy with where DeepRead is now
Today I started working on the frontend for DeepRead v2. I didn’t want to completely redesign the app, so I kept the same clean look while improving the overall layout and spacing. Most of the work today went into HTML and CSS, making everything feel more organized and easier to use. I also planned the layout for the upcoming features so adding them later will be much smoother. Still a lot left to build, but the base for v2 is ready now.
Made some more progress on DeepRead v2 today. Most of the frontend is now in place and I finished the HTML, CSS and most of the JavaScript. I actually spent most of my time tracking down a really annoying JavaScript bug that was breaking part of the new flow. Took longer than I expected, but it finally works the way I wanted. The base for the new features is ready now, so the next step is polishing everything and connecting the remaining functionality.
I finished writing the code for each feature individually and made sure everything works on its own. The only major thing left now is integrating everything into the main application and testing how the features work together. Once that’s done, I’ll start polishing the overall experience and fixing any issues that come up during testing.
Worked on the services folder today and expanded the AI provider support for DeepRead v2. The app previously had three AI providers, and I started integrating another one to make the fallback system more reliable. I finished the implementation for two of the providers and tested them individually. There’s still a bit of integration left, but the services layer is coming together nicely and should make the app much more dependable.
DeepRead v2 is now finished. I’ve had a little bit of time to test it all out again, make sure there are no bugs and that all the features work well together. All in all, it has developed greatly from its initial stage and I feel quite proud about the result. There will definitely be minor improvements that can still be made but, for now, I consider it to be fully completed and ready for release.
Ships:
DeepRead — a tool that uploads a PDF and generates an AI summary and flashcards so you don’t have to read the whole thing. Gemini kept hitting quota limits so I had to rebuild the backend to support multiple AI providers. Then AI models returning broken JSON, flashcards showing old PDF data, CORS issues, frontend not updating — basically spent most of my time debugging. The multi-AI fallback system. Groq fails → tries OpenRouter → tries Gemini. Happens automatically, user doesn’t even notice. Also just the fact that I actually finished it. You need all three API keys (Groq, OpenRouter, Gemini) in a .env file. Text-based PDFs work best, not scanned ones. Larger files take longer. Start the FastAPI backend first, then open index.html directly in your browser.
DeepRead — upload a PDF and get a summary, flashcards, a quiz, a mind map, and a chat where you can ask questions about it. Stopping the AI from making up facts that weren’t in the PDF, and dealing with free AI services running out of quota (so I made it try 4 different AI providers one by one until one works). That it actually works with real PDFs end to end, not just a demo — plus the flip flashcards and the fallback system feel solid. Upload any PDF, try all 3 summary modes, flip through flashcards, take the quiz, check the mind map, and ask the chat something not in the PDF to see it say “not covered” instead of guessing....
