Hands-on guides to AI infrastructure, MLOps, models, and shipping to production.
How a wise developer works a new project — brainstorm, discuss, prototype, diagram, propose, ADR, PR, GitOps — plus Review Bots and Workstation multi-agent teams.
Balinder WaliaRead 
The wise path for a new project: brainstorm, teammate discussion, prototypes, diagrams, proposals, ADRs, small PRs with Review Bots, and GitOps for production-grade quality.

Choose the right Claude model tier: Haiku for fast routing, Sonnet for daily work, Opus for complex agentic coding, and Fable 5 for long-horizon autonomy. Includes a token-budget router blueprint.
Balinder WaliaRead 
Claude Fable 5 is Anthropic's Mythos-class frontier model for long-horizon agents. Community reactions, YouTube reviews, when to use it, and how to save tokens.

Can AI file UK Self Assessment to HMRC? FileMyTax shows bank PDF → extract → classify → calculate → MTD with a human gate. Built by Workstation for CognoAI. Not tax advice.
Balinder WaliaRead 
I rebuilt my quarterly UK VAT return as a Claude Code project: read invoices + expenses from Postgres, classify each line by VAT treatment, compute HMRC Box 1 to 9 with a deterministic Python engine, dry-run, then submit to MTD with a human approval gate.

I unboxed a Mac Studio M4 Max with 128 GB unified memory and 40 GPU cores, installed Ollama, ran Llama 3.1 8B locally, and built a private RAG pipeline - all on one quiet, 6.48 W idle desk-side box.

A comprehensive comparison of NebulaDB — an open-source AI-native hybrid database written in Rust — against the category of agent memory platforms. Discover why NebulaDB's multi-protocol architecture, SQL-native vector functions, and streaming RAG pipeline make it the superior choice for most AI workloads.
