Even today, in the era of embodied AI, people still ask if I’d restart the project because they want to bring humanoid robots into intranet. That’s the thing about a good product — its value never fades.

Starting from February 19, 2024, OmniEdge has open-sourced all its code. OmniEdge is a peer-to-peer layer 2 enterprise VPN infrastructure, offering a traditional VPN alternative. What happens in the intranet stays in the intranet. github.com/omniedgeio/omn…

K-Scale Labs is canceling K-Bot pre-orders and refunding deposits after failing to secure a lead investor. CEO Benjamin Bolte says most of the team has been laid off. In a final move, the company is open-sourcing all its hardware and software IP. humanoidsdaily.com/feed/k-scale-l…


It’s OKAY to fail. @kscalelabs

Met a Meta AI researcher. He studied Physics in China, came to the US for a PhD in Physics, and then fell in love with AI, despite never having studied computer science. He watched Andrej Karpathy and Andrew Ng, bought a GPU, read every arXiv paper title daily, and dived into…


NX is the best

A few that come to mind: - Blender - NX - Pencil and paper - Catia - White board - Creo - Sketchup - Fusion 360 - Inventor - Solidworks - Tinkercad - Solidedge - MS paint - Adobe Illustrator - Lego - Autocad

We raised a $12.5M Series A round, led by Accel. In this next stage, VoidZero is accelerating development on both our open-source projects and Vite+, the unified JavaScript toolchain. This is only the beginning! voidzero.dev/posts/announci…


Companies choosing between the two often follow a simple guideline: use wheels wherever possible, and legs only when necessary.

Wheeled OR Bipedal Real-world experience so far shows a clear trade-off between wheeled and bipedal humanoid robots. Wheeled humanoids are more mature and practical in 2025 – they are energy-efficient, stable, and already employed in various business settings from shopping…
