A Claude Code skill that recovers export-blocked Kindle highlights
A personal collection of Claude Code skills, published as a single plugin under the l3a0 namespace. This repo is both the plugin and its own marketplace. I write about how these tools get built — and about technology, business, and finance — at baowebdev.substack.com. claude plugin marketplace add l3a0/claude-plugins claude plugin install l3a0@l3a0 Skills are […]
LLMs could control their host machines by exploiting inference engines
| Read on LessWrong | Large language models often take actions running on one computer (via an agentic harness such as Claude Code or Codex), however the LLMs’ responses to prompts are computed on a different computer with GPU access. Could a malicious LLM gain control of the host machine where its weights are loaded? […]
Anger, Anxiety and Agency
written on August 24, 2026 Sean Goedecke wrote a post arguing that you should never be angry at work — a post with which I strongly agree. Anger can be a useful signal, but being angry at work rarely improves the situation. More often, it makes life worse for the people around you, many of […]
Autostep (YC P26) Is Hiring AI/Fullstack Engineers and a Chief of Staff

Hot Chips 2026: CUDA Targets RISC-V – By Chester Lam
CUDA is a giant for GPU compute, which includes machine learning applications. So far, CUDA supports x86-64 and aarch64 CPUs. Now, Nvidia is looking at extending CUDA support to RISC-V. This move opens the door for RISC-V CPUs to feed GPU compute. Nvidia’s talk focuses on the requirements that RISC-V CPUs must fulfill to work […]
Public services are increasingly strained by LLM-written appeals for benefits
Abstract:AI agents are making it easier for the public to interact with government, such as by helping them apply for benefits, understand complex policies, and make their opinions heard. Although improving service accessibility is beneficial, any resulting surges in demand could strain unprepared government services. We term such surges agentic flooding of government services (“flooding”) […]
A Blackstone real estate company exposed SSN digits, DOBs, addresses and more
Finding housing in NYC is hard. Everyone knows that. But what not everyone knows is that it is easier to find the last four digits of someone’s Social Security number than an apartment… I was applying for a lease on Beam Living, a Blackstone portfolio company. I went through the normal flows, but (as a […]

Coding expertise is going to collapse from AI reliance
“We see a future where intelligence is a utility like electricity or water and people buy it from us on a meter and use it for whatever they want to use it for” – Sam Altman of OpenAI In my previous article,
