Crazy how long tests and benchmarking takes for a AI inference Paper. Its also surprising to me how sensitive the numerics are, any numbers or claims without at least NIMH/RULER/PG-19 should be considered suspect!
Paper is coming soon(tm) (last context band!)

It must be the end of the world
I'm writing Tex manually!
All the classics:
\textbf - make this a boyfriend
\textit - text iterator
\textasciitilde - cos ~ is too easy
\vspace{-6pt} - In case you don't like 50% vertical whitespace
I've decided to remove an item off my bucket list :O
Even though I've given talks, written articles, I've never actually submitted a proper academic paper!
Its in the ML system area, anybody who is more experienced in these things I'd love some help.
DM if you like a draft.
Report where my DotCache paged KV-Cache system is.
Its in the benchmark and figure out and then automate page-set phase of development.

Spiderweb now has proper macOS installer, wizards and helpers, all notarized and signed!

Now easy to create distributed workspaces (across OSs as well) your agents can use with just mounted folder.
Basic distributed venoms (services) also working.
Spiderweb update today:
Pretty boring but key function of moving venoms to a seperate repo and having a proper register with channels, packages, hashes and updates.
This allows system venoms to evolve and update without updating the main spiderweb server
Argh AMD! How can my 'AI' laptop not run ROCM enough to develop something using Triton or CUDA.
WTF was the point putting a 'AI' GPU in it, if you don't support it for your AI development stack?
Grumble bloody 890M GPU!
Spiderweb news:
- Linux and macOS computer and browser use venoms are in and tested. A single agent can control multiple computers and browsers!
- MCP bridge venom turns any sdio MCP into a venom accessible by any agent
- Lots of tests and fixs.
Spiderweb needed a new target, so its spinning a thread to MacOS as we speak.
In other words bought a Mac-Mini and getting it setup and then we port it.
Next up:
Improve the workspace setup process for CLI and GUI
MacOS support (just about to go buy a mac mini)
Better venom support (filesystem services that any agent can use without needing skills, cli, mcps, etc.)
Checking more agents (claude next)
3/3
This brings Spiderweb superpower one step closer.
Setup a workspace distributed across machines/OS
- Backend on a Linux box
- Frontend on a windows laptop.
- Setup venoms (services) usable by file read/writes
- CodexCLI/App can work on it all by just starting in that folder
2/3
Spiderweb overnight updates:
- SpiderApp (the CLI/GUI client) now supports Windows, Linux and Android (new)
- Spiderweb now works with any agent that can use a folder

Feels like we're hitting a transition point.
The jump from:
AI autocomplete → AI engineering assistant
is happening faster than most devs expect.

The interesting part wasn't writing code.
The model had to:
• understand a POSIX-assumed codebase
• identify platform dependencies
• adjust build + CI
• make it run on Windows
That's a very different problem from "generate a function".

I just watched AI port a POSIX-only WASM runtime with JIT to Windows.
Time: ~4 hours
Result: full CI pass.

We're not talking about autocomplete anymore, AI's are porting real systems code between OSs.

Terry Pratchett in a blue jacket and Akubra hat holding a young owl for release.
Eleven years since you crossed the black sands. I wish I could say that the world is better than you left it (although it will always be better for having had you in it) but at least there is a new Young Sam to help carry on the Pratchett name and ethos. Love you always ❤️
One of the interesting things that AI coding has enabled, is that programming language choice is largely irrelevant.
Spiderweb's protocol written in Zig, now has Typescript, Python and Go with Rust coming by tomorrow.
PiAi is a zig version of the typescript PiMono AI module

AI coders have taught me a new word "upsert", I've used the idea for years but never known there is a word for it.
Upsert refers to inserting only if not exist else update.

Trump's decision to bomb Iran is now the greatest windfall to the Russian war effort on record. If it continues, it might save the Russian war economy.
America will never be forgiven for inflicting Trump on the world.
I'm not talking about individual Americans who oppose Trump. I couldn't feel sorrier for them. But America as a polity and a geopolitical entity basically stuck a gun in its own mouth the moment it gave this man power.
Remembering obscure syntax in programming languages.
Never having to know where to stick a semicolon is a gift that keeps on giving!
#Spiderweb and the Spider ecosystem around it is starting to come together over a busy weekend.
I'm describing it as
Spider Web is a distributed system where #AI agents share tools, memory, and machines through a filesystem namespace inspired by Plan9.
Name and song just random unicode symbols
And they said Prince's Symbol was too much...
Added GPT-5.4 support to ZiggyPiAi (github.com/DeanoC/Zi...).
gpt-5.4 with full 1M context
gpt-5.4_smallcontext for the 272K path
Users can now choose full-context vs smaller-context behavior explicitly by model ID.

AI coders do very well on Zig, much better imho that Python or Typesript.
Its harder for them to make mistakes, except the odd memory problem and versioning as it still updating.
I'm not a rust fan myself, but both seem to great agent languages afaict
