How LLMs and Agents Will Deliver the Robot Promise
Today's robots fail in the real world because they can’t handle ambiguity, making them too expensive and limited to scale. LLMs are giving robots adaptable, language driven brains, which will get us to the tipping point where utility drives investment, cost drops, and the long-promised robot revolution begins.

Fixing SSE (MCP) Behind NGINX in a Node.js + PM2 Stack
If your MCP server is using SSE and you are behind nginx, you need to turn buffering off! July 18th, 2025
Embracing "Usually Correct"
LLMs are going to "write", in realtime, the glue between systems and tools that - until now - were too non-deterministic to be automated. July 12th, 2025
Agentic Software Architecture: Mind, Body, Tools
Software development being turned on it's head, and not just by Claude Code... The Model View Controller architecture is about to give way to the Mind Body Tools architecture - the Agentic Software Architecture. June 13th, 2025
A mental model for MCP tool development
How local MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools work with remote LLMs as a mediator with the LLM running in the cloud with locally-running tools. The key insight is that an "agent" (the local software wrapper) is different from the LLM itself, and this agent handles the stateful conversation and tool execution while using the remote LLM for natural language processing.
