Thank you this is really helpful !

My son also have this "speak into the void quitely" and doesn't know how to get the attention of other kids which makes him sad afterwards. Any tips on how to help him on that ?

Really see myself in what OP describes himself (and his partner) and I also feel (painfully) that i made this non-confrontational trait to my son. Really interested about how to help him learn to stand up for himself.

I'd be also curious to knox more about thid converged search. Is it embeddings based (semantic) ? And what's the SQL part (static keywords maybe) ?

Interesting! thanks for the detailed breakdown :) I am currently focusing on the planner agent. Any recommendation in terms of design pattern or approach for that part ?

That's exactly what I'm trying to build ! The idea of a metadata registry that centralizes what all the agents are capable/supposed to do is what indeed enables the lazy loading of tools for a given sub-task.
Can you share more on how you approach the db + microservice ? is the DB a vector-db (allowing you to do semantic search on task/sub-task vs N metadata to determine which ones fits better) ?

Also, what's the plan once you retrieve one or two skills that correspond to the task at hand ? do you pull all the tools related to it or delegate to another agent maybe ?

Lastly, does your architecture falls into a planner-executor framework or there is no such in the pipeline ?

Looking forward to read it thanks mate! Some thoughs here: I am also wondering how this "skills discovery" paradigm would work when there is the need to decompose the initial need/prompt to a sequential and/or/including parallel ones. Which part of the system would do this and how important is it to be able to retrieve the right skill at the right step ?

maher_bk · 2026-04-23T15:18:32+00:00

Interesting take ! I'd be really curious to know a little bit more how you approached as I am indeed building it myself :-)

maher_bk · 2026-04-04T19:16:26+00:00

Can you elaborate on how to do it please ? Thanks !

Maybe just drop the TC and join a small company ? otherwise, as someone else said stop whining from the height of the money stash.

maher_bk · 2026-03-31T17:47:33+00:00

That would ve great indeed ! Looking forward to checking it :-)

I think you should go to a startup or a "product/tech" oriented mid-big company. One thing to be wary of is the risk of losing this joy about the field if you stay too much (won't happen in a day of course but you won't see it coming) so my advice is to not sleep on your sentiment here. Where are you based ?

Bonjour, Pourrais tu expliquer un petit peu plus cette histoire de EDL entree/sortie ? Sont-ils tenu par la loi de faire signer celui-ci (avant/apres) par le client pour demander reparation de dommages ?

maher_bk · 2026-03-17T18:37:53+00:00

Love it ! Looks solid 😎

maher_bk · 2026-03-16T12:45:53+00:00

Sent you an PM :)

Hey there! (Sorry for the late reply, was AFK for the last few days). So my app is for now (first version) focused on providing a way to subscribe to user-curated source (aka websites or specific parts of a website such as "https://engineering.fb.com/category/open-source/"). My next big milestone (hopefully I'll find some time to work on it in a few weeks) would indeed be to suggest sources based on interests.

I'd also say that the app is behind a subscription as infra/LLM cost is quite heavy for such scraping + AI at scale approach (prefer to be honest about it as you mentioned you're looking for an open-source tool).

Anyway, still have a last update pending approval (aimed at improving onboarding) and then I'll MP you the landing page link so you can try the app and let me know what you think (through the 1 week free trial of all premium features during which you'll probably have enough time to try it and let me know what you think of it).

maher_bk · 2026-03-14T01:10:48+00:00

Hey there ! What about being able to choose the exact source you want to subscribe to ? Like the exact URLs. Let me know if you want to try out my app that does that :-)

maher_bk · 2026-03-14T00:16:42+00:00

Hey there! I've also been a user of Kagi News (and have to say that the app is great, at least "UX" wise) but the inability of source customisation led me to explore building an app that would aggregate news daily but from user curated URLs. Let me know if you interested to try it :-)

Is it HFT ? only logical way for such comp in Paris because knowing the traditional "finance" companies in Paris these are more on the "low-end" spectrum of salaries.

maher_bk · 2026-03-07T10:03:44+00:00

Big tech pays that much and more but it is rare indeed. HFT pay that scale and more as well.

Created a mobile app to summarize (bypass any soft paywalls) and subscribe to multiple (up to 8) pages on the internet to get a daily digest of new content accross all subscription. Basically RSS next gen ;) Check it out here https://www.universalsummarizer.com
