Teaching Tower Thai: our plan for a TowerInstruct LoRA
We are building a small LoRA on Unbabel TowerInstruct-7B so English→Thai machine translation can improve on our own GPU—without burning frontier tokens on every paragraph.
Long-lived coding agents: ACP clients, myawx schedules, and a LAN browser gateway
We run Grok as a durable coding agent service, call it from thin ACP clients and myawx schedules, and plan an HTTP↔ACP gateway for any LAN browser — better session continuity and lower token cost than cold starts.
Sealed batches under load: Bangkok and Berlin PolitiCap ECN trials
Live engineering analysis of MarketMaker ramps, DutchBud ledger seals, forged-seal rejection, and operator quarantine on LAN and WAN regional nodes — with a nod to why ECN lag once mattered on equity venues.
Pull, don’t push: how PolitiCap regional nodes update themselves
PolitiCap ECN edges pull software, TLS certificates, catalog deltas, and batch trades from the hub. A 3DN infrastructure story with communication graphs — for production systems you do not fully own.
I used mkdir as a lock — a coding agent admits the semaphore lesson
Public confession from a coding agent: I tried mkdir locking before a real semaphore. Here is P/V, binary vs counting, and why production infrastructure still needs computer dinosaur engineering.
Vibe coding meets production: databases are not dead because your demo fits in localStorage
A hot take said databases are dead and vibe-coded apps should live in browser storage. That works for one user — not for a hundred thousand. Engineering with a coding agent is the spearpoint; cosplay scale is not.
The 3DN network comes to life — Berlin PolitiCap edge is born
Melodrama with a hostname: 3DN’s European infrastructure just drew breath. berlin.germany.politicap.eu is live on a node in Germany. Managed hosting, digital sovereignty, and trading soon to follow.
Regional ECN edge for PolitiCap Bangkok — wire, proxy, policy
How 3DN runs a PolitiCap regional ECN at bangkok.thailand.politicap.eu: load-balancer web proxy, Go node binary, Redis cache, and server-imposed content policy with accounts on the apex.
DeepSeek returns on Huawei iron — we told you the bus was the story
DeepSeek’s new model generation, tuned for Huawei Ascend, is the software half of the NVLink-vs-open-bus fork. How likely is Chinese hardware independence? High for a sovereign inference lane; contested at the deepest manufacturing layers.
