Very cool and interesting. Checking out the repo now.

I built slashwork.sh as an offload marketplace for this exact thing but public facing and VM-wrapped for security.

Curious about how u address the trust layer and context offloading.

had a wonderful time poking around, will definitely give this another shot when i have an hour to lock in.

From one of the most intelligent humans I’ve ever known…“Hardware engineers are coming up now that software people are just AI babysitters now”and then the generic idiot of the group said:“AI is coming for us all AI is going to start designing boards and chips soon if it hasn’t already.”Man…i love generic baseless shit-talking. It makes it very easy to identify the parrot in the room.and for...

Thank you for checking it out :)
Thank you for the positive feedback. The MASS MOCA is definitely on my must-see museum list. It should scale if you have a projector :)

Sol LeWitt was a conceptual artist who never touched his own walls.He wrote instructions and other people executed them, the original prompt engineer!I bookmarked a project called "Solving Sol" seven years ago and made a repo in 2018. Committed a README. Never pushed anything else.Fast forward to 2026, I finally built it.https://intervolz.com/sollewitt/

Love this quote. In my youth, I attempted several times to use () for a thought within a larger sentence. My writing teacher at the time hated it! I never knew the correct way to do that or how to articulate it. "A parenthetical thought within a longer sentence" — I was so close!

I'm a senior software engineer with 10+ years of experience building full-stack systems at the intersection of hardware and software. Most recently I led AR/VR automation at Meta, built real-time performance tracing tools with Perfetto, and drove CPU/GPU profiling pipelines for next-gen wearable devices. Before that, I verified phased-array antenna hardware and built full-stack systems for the HAPS project (SoftBank acquisition).

I love turning messy real-world systems into interactive software tools. My skillset spans system design and integration, high-throughput automation, and modern tech stacks. I’m especially into creative 3D UIs, live visualization of physical systems, and tools that empower engineers and artists.

I'm looking for teams solving weird problems that may have physical interfaces, spatial tech, or just need a hacker who figures stuff out and makes it feel polished. Growth-stage startups or skunkworks teams are ideal.
