Notes
Notes on the thinking behind the work.
Short notes on projects, learning, and research.
- The Idea That Started the VibeThinker-3B ProjectHow the local VibeThinker-3B reasoning-enhancement project began, and what it initially set out to solve.
- Why I Started Building LumenLumen did not begin with a complete product plan. It grew from a practical need, dissatisfaction with existing agent products, and the desire for a place where I could freely build and test new ideas.
