LLM Wiki

A pattern for building personal knowledge bases using LLMs.

This is an idea file, it is designed to be copy pasted to your own LLM Agent (e.g. OpenAI Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode / Pi, or etc.). Its goal is to communicate the high level idea, but your agent will build out the specifics in collaboration with you.

The core idea

Most people's experience with LLMs and documents looks like RAG: you upload a collection of files, the LLM retrieves relevant chunks at query time, and generates an answer. This works, but the LLM is rediscovering knowledge from scratch on every question. There's no accumulation. Ask a subtle question that requires synthesizing five documents, and the LLM has to find and piece together the relevant fragments every time. Nothing is built up. NotebookLM, ChatGPT file uploads, and most RAG systems work this way.

Boot Sector Games

A list of playable boot sector games, most of which are on github. Fun to play, great to learn from. There are also many cool non-booting boot sectors out there that aren't games (so more like demos), but this page is just reserved to interactive boot sectors / games. This list is also not complete, but not on purpose, it is a best effort collection of games, so if you know of any fun boot sector games, please contribute.

This page lists a collection of 31 games spanning several authors: nanochess, me, daniel-e, shikhin, JulianSlzr, XanClic, QiZD90, darkvoxels, guyhill, w-shackleton, egtzori, VileR, ish_works, franeklubi, queso_fuego, franeklubi, Jethro82, waternine9, tevoran, palma3k, taylor-hartman. peterferrie should also be mentioned as he has touched a lot of these games.

ES Modules are terrible, actually

This post was adapted from an earlier Twitter thread.

It's incredible how many collective developer hours have been wasted on pushing through the turd that is ES Modules (often mistakenly called "ES6 Modules"). Causing a big ecosystem divide and massive tooling support issues, for... well, no reason, really. There are no actual advantages to it. At all.

It looks shiny and new and some libraries use it in their documentation without any explanation, so people assume that it's the new thing that must be used. And then I end up having to explain to them why, unlike CommonJS, it doesn't actually work everywhere yet, and may never do so. For example, you can't import ESM modules from a CommonJS file! (Update: I've released a module that works around this issue.)

And then there's Rollup, which apparently requires ESM to be u

Shipping a signed, notarized, auto-updating macOS app with Electron Forge + GitHub Actions

A complete, copy-pasteable guide to getting a macOS Electron app to the point where:

• It launches with no Gatekeeper warning (signed + notarized).
• It updates itself silently in the background (Squirrel.Mac), then "Restart to update".
• The whole release is built and published by CI from a tag/dispatch.

This is the setup I wish I'd had in one place. It assumes Electron Forge v7 (@electron-forge/*) and GitHub Actions, but the Apple bits apply to any macOS distribution-outside-the-App-Store flow.
