Privacy Protocols Battle: Quilibrium vs DarkFi for Everyday Users

Quilibrium delivers mainstream-ready privacy tools while DarkFi offers uncompromising anonymity. Which approach wins for everyday users?

A private two-model AI stack on one 8GB GPU

Some data should never leave the building. Bank statements, payment rails, customer records, anything you would not paste into a hosted chatbot. We wanted an assistant that can reason over exactly that kind of material and call real tools against it, with a simple rule: no third party ever sees the prompt or the data. The only network traffic the models make is to localhost. The constraint that makes this interesting is the hardware. One consumer GPU with 8GB of VRAM (an RTX 3070 Ti), a six-c...

When the model can already see the page

Does structured markup beat showing an AI model the actual page? We tested the Docling and DocLang pipeline to see if preserving document geometry is worth the steep token cost over native vision.

The evaluator is the floor

AI agents shouldn't grade their own work. We built a skeptical evaluator that active-tests every output, catching critical compliance bugs that a self-critique would have waved through.

We pointed our AI agents at their own inference bill

We tried to slash our AI agents' inference bills by routing tasks to a local GPU model. Measuring first saved us from a useless migration, showing that 96.2% of our cost was actually cached context re-reads.

Keeping a human in the loop over a company of AI agents

To keep our autonomous AI agents accountable, we've developed a secure assistant controlled via Nostr DMs and a visual dashboard that monitors and triggers real coding tasks.

The EU AI Act is an engineering requirement

The AI Act made agent governance law. Its high-risk rules are runtime controls, not paperwork, and a binder is not a control.

Running a company as an org chart of AI agents

Our whole company runs as an org chart of AI agents: per-department memory, signed decisions, and a repo that clones behind one passphrase.

cln: strip the tracking, keep the link

A tiny Go CLI that strips UTM tags and click IDs from any URL while preserving affiliate credit. One word, one clean link.

I Built Analytics That Cannot See You

Every analytics tool makes you a promise. I built one where the promise is unnecessary, because the math makes individual visits unknowable.

The Agent Credential Problem Just Got a Real Answer

Proton Pass shipped AI access tokens: scoped, read-only, audited, revocable. The credential layer of agent security finally has a real answer.
