This is awesome! I can tell this is a huge amount of work selecting the correct type and amount of variables.
That's a great idea! next step, let Claude answer with comic book panels :-D

You never know what will be remembered as the birth of the singularity. Could be a small github repo like this one, who knows.

This is more a great signal marketwise than anything else. But still this is confirming the buzz.
I maintain this one. I was the #2 contributor on the original repo, and Siddharth linked here from his README when he archived it.

Nine releases since June. Biggest change is the compositor: it used to run in Electron, now it's native (D3D11, Metal, Vulkan). Export on my test machine went from about 10 fps to about 126. Linux got a lot of work too, and there are in-place updates now, plus Microsoft Store / Fedora / Nix / AUR packages.

Happy to answer questions.

Re:N8n-as-code: Stop n8n AI hallucinations with TS decorators on Wednesday March 11, 2026 @09:19AM (#47335212)
I spent the last few weeks building an abstraction layer for n8n to fix a specific problem: LLM hallucinations in AI IDEs.

When you ask Cursor or Windsurf to build an n8n workflow, it often breaks the JSON schema. By bringing the n8n ontology into TypeScript with decorators, we provide the AI with the strict context it needs to be 10x more reliable.

It's a pure GitOps approach to automation. Curious to see if others here are moving away from 'No-Code' UI towards 'As-Code' for better AI reliability.

Are you production ready ?
What it is: Stimm (v0.1 Public Beta) is an Open Source (AGPL v3) platform designed to orchestrate low-latency voice conversations with AI agents. We focused heavily on the Python/FastAPI event loop and media transport (using LiveKit for WebRTC) to achieve a near real-time feel.

Why we built it: To provide a robust, modular foundation for builders. Stimm handles the complex real-time pipeline (WebRTC, VAD, STT/LLM/TTS streaming) so you can focus on the AI. It includes built-in SIP telephony support and is fully Dockerized.

Feedback wanted: We're looking for technical feedback on the architecture, particularly the audio stream handling.

Looking forward to the discussion!
