i recently bought my first fountain pen and some nice ink and paper and it's even nicer that way :) highly recommend it

i've had some cloudflare credits expiring on may 14 and was wondering what to do with them. when kimi k2.6 dropped and it was available on workers ai, i figured i'd build an open-source claude code clone with it. didn't think too much about it. (people asked if i know about opencode and tbh i learned about them only after i built this. but they seem really brilliant.)

anyway, kimiflare is a CLI coding agent, basically claude code but powered by kimi k2.6 on cloudflare workers ai.

it's at v0.57.0 and has gotten 12k+ npm downloads, 137 github stars, and PRs from 4 contributors (including a zed/ACP integration from marshall thompson at featherjs). the credits are the only reason the cloud tier exists, so once they expire on thursday i'm sunsetting it and the project continues as open source / BYOK.

i'm giving away 5M tokens per user to anyone who signs up before the credits expire — no credit card needed. you'll automatically get the tokens when you sign up and choose the Cloud option when prompted by the cli.

repo: https://github.com/sinameraji/kimiflare install: npm i -g kimiflare

happy to answer anything.

p.s. i used claude code for the first 2-3 commits in kimiflare, then used kimiflare to build itself from v0.3.0 onwards for maximum dogfooding. it's been a fun experience.

so i designed integral to get rid of the 2 biggest causes of noise on slack/discord and similar apps:

1. channels 2. recency based feed

i've replaced these 2 with a few subtle features (different approaches for business vs communities). check it out and let me know what you think :)

Integral is AI-native Slack/Discord alternative. A communication app built for scale, since first gen communication apps get too noisy after 20 users start chatting. Pre-seed funded, closing seed round imminently. Currently a 1-person company. solo founder, Sina, built the first version (desktop & mobile) and launched and ranked #1 product of the day on Product Hunt and got early power users and has a 4k+ waitlist.

the ideal candidate is a product-minded engineer who has worked at early stage startups ideally as a CTO or founding engineer. experience with compliance is nice to have. being based in SF bay area is a must.

i’ve built integral for 1 philosophical and 1 practical reason. i want to become the replacement to slack/discord/circle/etc for online communities and possibly organizations too.

launching early and admittedly a bunch of features are missing, but i’m already migrating a paid online community that i run from slack to integral. building daily!

practical reason: most human wisdom and specific knowledge is never documented and therefore never transferred. altho a big chunk of it is shared via text or audio online. i wanna capture that maximally at source (group chats) but give users the ownership and the option to share or keep private.

philosophical reason: most people live a lifetime and die without ever fulfilling their potential, at the time when a small segment of the population has the mental models that, if presented at the right time and place, could help everyone make better decisions that’d increase their quality of life. broken knowledge/wisdom transfer pipeline/flywheel.

some other thoughts: i believe more and more people will seek to join niche tribes every year, to feel belonging AND to get answers is specific questions.

currently people use reddit or some group chats on some messaging app out of desperation. but these interfaces are from 20 years ago. they get noisy as more people join , the best people and knowledge get lost in their infinite feeds, and there are 0 relationship building features in them.

i wanna bring [back] social graphs, knowledge graphs and a human-in-the-loop flywheel to group messaging, so that as more people talk about specific things that matter, they’ll contribute to building niche AI models that they, not our platform, can choose to share and even sell.

i imagine open AI would pay a lot for niche datasets that they can’t just scrape from reddit or somewhere.

looking for early feedback/adopters/supporters

this is a very early stage MVP. My vision with Learning Loop is to organise the world's knowledge to help anyone learn anything, joyfully and efficiently.

Google organised the world's information and that's enough to help people in tech learn stuff online. We subscribe to a ton of newsletters and communities and filter knowledge. Most ordinary people don't learn like that. When they google something and get 3 billion results, they feel lost. Some go to reddit to find recommendations, and they end up finding 300 opinions on how to learn X. They feel lost again. I want a platform on which the volume of knowledge each person gets exposed to goes down over time, but the quality goes up. Optimising for person/content fit.

Long way to go. Open to feedback, criticism, talent.

IMHO, a radical innovation in education is one that can address at least two of the following flaws and failures in the current education system, at any growable scale:

–Duration and cost –Content –Delivery

If I were to satisfy a VC, I could also add a 4th bullet point called "Supply/Demand", but since I'm not writing for a VC, then I'll write what actually matters. In the case of education, that is, it's okay to ignore the existing supply and demand, and focus on the demand that must exist that doesn't yet.

Wrote a memo on these and elaborated more https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/q4-2019-what-i-see-current-st...

P.S: I think I got lucky that my mom was a teacher, so I grew up having a definition of right and wrong different from what was expected of me, and that stayed with me throughout my education. I didn't do what was asked, but what I believe was right for my growth.
