Voice-controlled coding agents, macOS notch utilities, and privacy tools stood out today.
Sled — Run your coding agent from your phone, with voice
Voice interface for Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, and Gemini CLI. Talk to your agent while away from your desk. Connects via Tailscale so code never leaves your machine. Fully open source.
LinkNotch — Turn your MacBook notch into a bookmark bar
Hover over your MacBook notch to access frequently visited links. Organize across Work/General categories. Great for reclaiming dead screen real estate on notched MacBooks.
StealthHound — Expose and block browser fingerprinting
Chrome extension that detects canvas fingerprinting, hardware probing, and API-based tracking in real time. Live alerts and automatic blocking. Runs locally with zero data collection.
Colloqio — On-device AI companion for iOS
100% local AI that works offline. No cloud, no data collection. Remembers your conversations and preferences. Free, no account required. Requires iOS 18.6+.

AI discovers a new matrix multiplication algorithm, DeepSeek releases memory architecture, and xAI's gigawatt datacenter goes live.
Archivara (powered by GPT-5.2 Pro and Opus 4.5) breaks 2019 benchmark for 5x5 circular matrix multiplication. Achieved rank-7 algorithm where rank-8 was previously the best verified — a ~14% improvement.
"Unambiguous proof that AI is not just retrieving knowledge, it is doing something truly novel."
DeepSeek Engram: Static memory for LLMs
New architecture that separates remembering from reasoning. Instead of recomputing static knowledge through transformer layers, Engram adds native memory lookup in O(1). Improves reasoning, math, and code performance while enabling massive memory scaling.
xAI Colossus 2 goes live as first gigawatt datacenter
Houses 555,000 NVIDIA GPUs worth ~$18B. Built in just 122 days. Upgrading to 1.5GW by April 2026. "The path to AGI feels like one giant brute-force attack."
Research notes — efficiency breakthroughs and interpretability.
PathDiffusion: Modeling protein folding pathways
New framework that simulates how proteins fold from unfolded to native states using evolution-guided diffusion.
MIT Tech Review: Mechanistic interpretability named 2026 Breakthrough
The field aims to reverse engineer neural networks. Anthropic pioneered tools to identify features inside Claude.

LTX-2 on consumer GPUs, Z-Image vs Klein comparisons, and ComfyUI workflow tools.
LTX-2 workflow for RTX 3060 12GB
Detailed ComfyUI workflow for running LTX-2 video generation on 12GB VRAM + 48GB RAM. Demonstrates creating cinematic cyberpunk scenes on consumer hardware.
Z-Image vs Klein comparison
Z-Image wins on realism/anatomy. Klein wins on detail/speed/editing. Useful for choosing the right model.
ComfyUI-Downloader: Auto-fetch workflow models
Analyzes your workflow and automatically downloads missing models. Huge time saver for complex setups.

macOS utilities and self-hosted tools — keyboard shortcuts manager, music scrobblers, and homelab hardware.
Kommand — Your personal keyboard shortcut cheat sheet
Press ⌥⌘K to bring up shortcuts organized by app. Built by indie dev with tendonitis who needed to ditch the mouse. $3.99 one-time purchase with iCloud sync.
Distraction-free YouTube app for macOS
Native macOS app that strips YouTube down to just the video. No Shorts, no comments, no algorithmic recommendations. Currently in TestFlight beta, works on macOS 14.4+.
Koito — Self-hosted music scrobbler
Modern, themeable ListenBrainz-compatible scrobbler. Alternative to Maloja with cleaner UI. Imports from LastFM, Spotify, and ListenBrainz. Written in Go, MIT licensed.
Aurral — Overseer-like interface for Lidarr
Beautiful request interface for your music library. Integrates with slskd + soularr. Made with AI but works well — dev is clear about not taking feature requests.
Quick hits.
ESP32-based Emergency KVM for homelab
Turns BIOS screens into SSH text. For hardware without BMC/IPMI. Keeps recovery tools immutable.
Latest — Free MacUpdater alternative
Open source macOS utility that checks if all your apps are up to date. Supports App Store and Sparkle apps.
