5 lessons I learned playing with Clawdbot, a local agentic assistant
I’ve spent the last few weeks playing with Clawdbot. My instance is named Clawd. If you haven’t seen this category yet: think “chat assistant”, but with hands.

Logging is not just about keeping track of errors or information; it’s about having a detailed and systematic record of the operations to understand the flow of your program and quickly diagnose issues.… Continue reading My Python logging setup

Soon I realized that the actual process of architecting a Neural Network and setting the parameters seemed to be much more experimental than I thought. It took a while to find explanations that a rookie like me could understand. Most of the… Continue reading Classifying fruits with a Convolutional Neural Network in Keras
