2+ day, 7+ hour ago  (138+ words) Customer service automation has long promised faster support and lower costs. Until recently, most automated systems delivered the opposite: deep menu trees, limited speech recognition, and hardcoded logic. This is changing with the rise of LLM-powered AI voice agents. Designing…...

2+ day, 11+ hour ago  (979+ words) Real-time data processing is both the backbone and bottleneck of innovation. As systems grow more complex, conventional approaches to computation start to show their limits. In this article I explore a powerful alternative: using dependency graphs to model and execute…...
