Watching the NHL playoffs and thinking: every broadcaster needs highlight clips published fast, ideally before the next game.
A few weeks ago, I built a Python script that automates exactly that: video URL in, short captioned clip out

Reka Edge is now available on #OpenRouter multimodal, sub-second latency, and it works with the OpenAI SDK out of the box.
Switching is literally just updating the model ID. No new SDK, no code changes.
Wrote a walkthrough + made a video: dev.to/reka/bringin...
New Reading Notes is out! A fresh roundup of tech reads that caught my attention this week, from .NET to AI and beyond c5m.ca/RN-693
Don't ask me why, but I was searching my 👃nose!
Running #VisionAI locally and using it to examine images
Run a vision AI model on your own machine, no cloud required
This tutorial walks through serving Reka Edge with vLLM so you can build apps on top of a local multimodal model.

New Reading Notes #691 is out. A mix of Copilot lessons from real projects, Claude Code in Docker, terminal updates, and a few ideas that might change how you build and ship. c5m.ca/RN-691
AI video editing with Python 🐍 is here 🎬 youtu.be/bhq7Ws-w9Gk
This tutorial shows how to automatically turn long videos into short, captioned clips in a few lines of code
Simple setup. Real results. ⚡
#Python #AI #VideoEditing #Automation
A mix of practical AI tips, thoughts on coding with agents, and why the old internet still lingers in our heads. Some great reads and listens this week. c5m.ca/RN-690
This weekend I had time to do some outdoor photography, and I was hoping green buts, or spring flowers
But noooo. Wind snow and ice! ❄️💨😂
Indeed, and that's what we do when integrating this model into security systems or other projects
I put together a short tutorial that explains step-by-step how to get the brand new Reka Edge to run locally. You are only a few steps away from asking an #AI what's in any image or video 👉 link.reka.ai/reka-edge-dev 👀

Reading Notes #689 is out! A handful of interesting reads on AI, dev tools, and clever ideas from around the web 📚️ 🎧️ c5m.ca/RN-689
Meet Reka #Edge - Our vision language model for physical AI. Uses 3x fewer tokens and achieves 65% faster throughput compared to 8B models. Image understanding, video analysis, object detection, and tool use.
Built for Action. Fast enough for production, deployable anywhere c5m.ca/reka-edge
Most VLMs are built for chat.
But in Physical AI, real-world systems make decisions in milliseconds.
If you're building for robotics or real-time video, you need intelligence that's practical, powerful, and fast.
We’ve been heads-down on latency bottlenecks
Can’t wait to show you what’s next.
Reading Notes #688 is out! This week: AI pull-request agents for Azure DevOps, safer OpenClaw experiments in Docker sandboxes, Copilot updates, WebAssembly insights, and a neat way to integrate Aspire into existing projects.

Reading Notes #687 is live 🚀
This week: upgrading legacy code with AI, markdown-based agents on Azure, measuring AI’s real business value, OpenClaw security, long-term storage strategies, and a note on The Making of a Manager.
You can read it here: c5m.ca/RN-687
Excited to share what we just launched at Reka 👀
We released an #n8n community node for AI-powered video clipping & image analysis.
• Turn long videos into short clips
• Analyze images with natural language
• Ask questions about visuals

Would love to hear what you'd build with it
New Reading Notes 🧠 c5m.ca/RN-686
Ralph loops, AI coding tips, Docker sandboxes, OSS tools, and some excellent podcasts to level up your week
Have a nice week!
We’re letting AI answer business questions…
But we don’t require proof?
At Confoo, I’ll build an agentic research assistant that searches multiple sources and returns grounded, traceable answers.
Because “trust me bro” isn’t an architecture
👉 Join me in Montreal: confoo.ca

Are we overcomplicating AI integration?
Do we really need:
- An SDK?
- Extensions?
- An Agent Framework?
- Or just HttpClient?
What’s your current approach?
Next week I’ll be at confoo.ca (Feb 25–27) in Montreal presenting:
