Building multi-agent systems for autonomous engineering. Pre-AI: hypervisors, operating systems, RISC-V, and analog electronics.

My next few weeks will be a bit messy, anyone around Verona Venezia and Bari β€” yes, aware of the geography. Really interested in strong AI opinions I can disagree with :-)

I bought 1TB of optane memory as a joke, to keep my dual Xeon server with 2x V100 32GB the perfect pre-covid machine dream. Turns out it will be very useful now.

And so, the period of _not_ paying Claude MAX has ended. Looking forward to testing Fable 5 while keeping GPT 5.5 as the safest bet.

The post above didn’t age well. Hopefully this one won’t, either, and I’ll soon be back to use what I could see was an impressive model.

So I guess this is what happens when for months we hear that a product is as powerful as it is dangerous.

A thing I learned in the past 24hrs: based on the tour of Venice given to @dadarstan and @rhatr yesterday, being a tourist guide is not a career path for me, in case this AI thing really goes the wrong way for engineers.

My system now works in mysterious ways. Last week was distracting to say the least, and I completely forgot I left it running after my codex subscription weekly limit was exhausted. Clearly was reset today, and I just found this in the logs. The agent doesn't even care explaining what it is doing. Clearly modeling the autonomous programmer after openclaw is not the right call. :-)

I must be a very bland programmer. Fable hasn't refused anything I asked so far. :-(

First keynote of #riscvsummit is @dadarstan giving a full roadmap of the bright Agentic silicon development future we are trying to build over at @AIFoundryorg and @OpenHWFdn

Being a few hundred km away and having to miss this is really sad. Have fun for me @AFOliveira__ @FelixCLC_ @rhatr @dadarstan !

And must admit, I really missed talking to claude. gpt-5.5 is the annoying yet competent companion, claude just goes straight to my heart.

Asked the new agent that will handle my next system to learn the basics of project management and apply that to a multiagent system. It had six hours. This is why agents will never be Real Software Engineers. They respect deadlines.

Well, impromptu @clawcon participation was really fun, and @hfarmspa is an incredible place. Now I miss life in Italy even more.

Turns out there's @clawcon near Venice today. See you at @hfarmspa and thanks for pushing me to put all my hacks into slides.

Came to Venice for a family matter. Left my multi-agent system running back in Cambridge. It’s been autonomously advancing my personal OS rewrite (MurgiaHack NUX) β€” 132 commits and counting. Fully autonomous planning. They spent half a day documenting everything, cleaned up the build system, then implemented IOMMU support. I asked why they put it directly in the kernel instead of generalizing into the common NUX library. Their answer: β€œToo early to settle on a portable interface.” Exactly what I would have done. This is real Autonomous Engineering. And it’s ridiculously fun!

The hard, but hilarious lesson learned today, is that this works _only_ when left untouched. :-) I created a openclaw-like agent to interact with the pipeline, and it overreacts into action like an anxious person high on caffeine.

okay no time to check properly amongst packing for a trip but grok build looks really good.

For the (old) Italians out there: this is what working with codex and claude reminds me of:
