I'm David, working in AI and the web from Montréal. This is my open notebook: the tools and projects that catch my eye, the experiments they spark, and where I think it's all heading.
Interesting finds, updated throughout the week. Showing latest 3 additions.
An Obsidian plugin that embeds Claude Code and Codex as AI collaborators inside an Obsidian vault. It is a development environment plugin for using coding agents while working in notes.

An article about the realities of moving from engineer to engineering manager, based on the author’s own experience and mentoring others through the transition. It discusses common challenges such as difficult conversations, office politics, stress, and taking work home.
LLM-generated research, prompt explorations, and AI-assisted deep dives.
A deep dive comparing open-source and closed-source AI memory/knowledge graph solutions (vector DBs, graph DBs, hybrid) for agentic workflows, evaluating features like retrieval style, scalability, and LLM optimization.
A comprehensive analysis of leading open-source LLM observability, evaluation, and testing platforms, including pros, cons, intended audience, hosting requirements, and a comparison table.
A deep research exploration of AI agent patterns, their evaluation, and comparison for solutions architects.
Experimental projects and learning explorations in AI and development
Detailed tutorials and best practices for AI development and implementation
Brewing the perfect guides...
Just need one more cup of coffee to finish writing these.
"Welcome to my digital garden — a running feed of what's catching my eye, the experiments it sparks, and me trying to connect the dots. Some of it's polished; a lot of it is excited 3 AM rabbit holes."
