nanomem: An Extremely Simple, Inference-Time Memory Module
nanomem is an extremely simple, user-owned memory module that casts memory management as LLM calls / agent loops on a markdown file tree. You interact with the tree with natural language commands like nanomem add <fact>, nanomem retrieve <query>, and nanomem import <chatgpt>. As such, nanomem is by design interpretable, partitionable, portable, and versioned.
WiCER: Wiki-memory Compile, Evaluate, Refine Iterative Knowledge Compilation for LLM Wiki Systems
The LLM Wiki pattern, to compile and provide domain knowledge into a persistent artifact and serve it to LLMs via KV cache inference, promises context access at sub-second latency with zero retrieval failure. Realizing this requires solving the compilation gap: LLM compilation distilling raw documents into a wiki without catastrophically discarding critical facts. We characterize this gap across 17 RepLiQA domains (6,800 questions): we observe that full context KV cache inference outperforms RAG on curated knowledge (4.38 vs. 4.08 out of 5, 7.3 faster TTFT) but degrades below RAG at scale due to attention dilution, and blind compilation fails entirely (2.14 to 2.32 vs. 3.46, 53 to 60% catastrophic failure rate). To address the compilation gap, we propose WiCER (Wiki-memory Compile, Evaluate, Refine), an iterative algorithm inspired by counterexample-guided abstraction refinement (CEGAR) that closes this gap. WiCER evaluates compiled wikis against diagnostic probes, identifies dropped facts, and forces their preservation in subsequent compilations. One to two iterations recover 80% of lost quality (mean 3.24 vs. 3.47 for raw full-context across the 15 topics with baselines), reducing catastrophic failures by 55% relative. An ablation across all 17 topics confirms that targeted diagnosis (+0.95), not generic pinning (+0.16), drives the gains. All code and benchmarks are released for reproducible research.

WebAssembly | MDN
WebAssembly (Wasm) is a low-level assembly-like language that brings near-native performance to the web. It serves as a compilation target for languages like C/C++, C#, and Rust, allowing high-performance code to run directly in the browser.

Information scraps: How and why information eludes our personal information management tools
In this article we investigate information scraps —personal information where content has been scribbled on Post-it notes, scrawled on the corners of sheets of paper, stuck in our pockets, sent in email messages to ourselves, and stashed in miscellaneous digital text files. Information scraps encode information ranging from ideas and sketches to notes, reminders, shipment tracking numbers, driving directions, and even poetry. Although information scraps are ubiquitous, we have much still to learn about these loose forms of information practice. Why do we keep information scraps outside of our traditional PIM applications? What role do information scraps play in our overall information practice? How might PIM applications be better designed to accommodate and support information scraps' creation, manipulation and retrieval? We pursued these questions by studying the information scrap practices of 27 knowledge workers at five organizations. Our observations shed light on information scraps' content, form, media, and location. From this data, we elaborate on the typical information scrap lifecycle, and identify common roles that information scraps play: temporary storage, archiving, work-in-progress, reminding, and management of unusual data. These roles suggest a set of unmet design needs in current PIM tools: lightweight entry, unconstrained content, flexible use and adaptability, visibility, and mobility.

Protocol Buffers
Protocol Buffers are language-neutral, platform-neutral extensible mechanisms for serializing structured data.
Jupyter Notebooks – a publishing format for reproducible computational workflows
It is increasingly necessary for researchers in all fields to write computer code, and in order to reproduce research results, it is important that this code is published. We present Jupyter notebooks, a document format for publishing code, results and explanations in a form that is both readable and executable. We discuss various tools and use cases for notebook documents.
Seed Hypermedia
Publish documents, connect ideas, discuss them in context, and preserve verifiable authorship and collective memory over time.
Wasm 2.0 Completed - WebAssembly
WebAssembly (abbreviated Wasm) is a binary instruction format for a stack-based virtual machine. Wasm is designed as a portable compilation target for programming languages, enabling deployment on the web for client and server applications.

ATProto Standards Bodies—Guiding the Future of the Network
blog.stygiantech.devThere are a lot of architectural bits, but if I had to pick one design feature it's Lexicons. Lexicons allow for new shared data types and structures in a way that are immediately available on network for any other service provider to adopt. Getting shared agreement in ActivityPub is hard.
