last year, i hacked my doorbell camera to see which halloween costumes were most popular in my neighborhood
decided to open-source it this year so others can try it too
you can run it locally on supported hardware or set it up with @stripe projects (using @supabase @openrouter @vercel)
give it a try to see what costumes are popular in your hood 🎃
i hooked my doorbell feed up to a raspberry pi that runs some vision models to detect & classify trick-or-treaters in real time
happy halloween 👻

a very close friend of mine, @aadilpickle, has spent the past year writing pieces on the amazing people he meets
i was honored last month when he asked if he could write about me
he knows me better than most, and wrote a very kind and honest piece about me
worth a read :)
I spent a week with Rox Codes (yes that's a made up name). His past lives include:
- being MrBeast's "software guy"
- building the first automated clipping software and Youtube thumbnail testing before Youtube
- accidentally becoming a famous Twitch streamer after streaming himself coding as an productivity hack
- travelling the world as an indie hacker with Peter Levels and friends
Now he's the CEO of Flightcast, a podcast hosting software company. I couldn't think of anything more boring to work on, but he seems to love it. Getting to be the best at something, to invent when your competitors are dinosaurs, and to build for people you care about is it's own satisfaction.
I wrote for @sfalexandria_ about how he's the best salesman I know, how he deals with sadness, and what keeps him going.

here’s everything @ploid_ai found on Abdulrahman Alfozan (@alfozan), the openai engineer charged with bugging an exec conference room
35, saudi national. MIT computer science 2011–2016, then a masters in data science at berkeley 2023–2025
2015: systems engineer at reach labs (YC S15), building long-range wireless charging
2017–2022: senior systems engineer at meta on data infra. core spark contributor, led the spark-on-velox design, spoke at spark + AI summit
2022–2025: founding engineer at nash (YC, a16z-backed logistics AI)
2025: venture partner at RAED ventures (part-time), then engineering lead on openai’s agents platform starting sept 2025. co-author on the original gradio paper too
he allegedly planted a listening device behind a TV in an exec conference room.
openai found it sept 30, caught him on camera checking it, fired him + FBI arrested him oct 9. first court appearance today, detention hearing oct 19
all of that took one search on @ploid_ai
We discovered a sophisticated recording device that was hidden inside one of our offices. We used our models to understand the device and where it had come from, identifying that a specific employee had planted it a few days earlier. We referred the matter to the FBI, and we’re grateful to the agents and prosecutors who moved quickly to make an arrest. The FBI’s investigation is ongoing and we will continue to support their work.
At this time, we have no indications of this individual inappropriately accessing or exfiltrating model weights, source code, or customer data. The employee was terminated.
We take protecting our technology, data, and people seriously, and as a matter of national importance. Our security program is designed to protect against a wide range of threat actors, from insider risks to cybercriminals to nation states, and this case is an example of how AI can help address these sophisticated security threats.

Matt Farley is the most prolific singer-songwriter of all time. He's written over 26,000 songs and makes $200k/year off music streaming royalties.
He's also:
- made 18 movies
- written 5 books
- been profiled by NYT and Wired
He's best known as "The Poop Song Guy". I watched him perform live at "Burp. Fest" and he opened with "Diarrhea Bounce Back". "Experts have declared that Matt Farley is a genius." is something I can only say with quotes, because he tweeted it himself.
I spent a week with him in suburban Massachusetts, going on a 15 mile "epic walks", attending his homeschool kids talent show, and listening to his greatest hits over 5 hours of car rides, with him pausing to explain his "genius" every other minute.
I've never been more inspired by anyone. Just by being himself, he's given me more confidence in my ideas and what could come from putting them out into the world. He's independently discovered and embodied "do things that don't scale" and "ramen profitability" without reading Paul Graham.
We talked about creative exhaustion from AI, how inspiration is everywhere, "reverse stealing" to promote his music before the internet, and why artists fake being sad for attention.
I wrote for @sfalexandria_ on how and why he puts in such an overwhelming amount of effort into his creative process.

This is Dynamite.
It takes any website & dynamically personalizes it for every visitor, so they see what is most likely to convert.
Within 300ms.
It installs on ANY site with one line of javascript.

Did you know the labs are still exploring making swarms that act as one, even after the HF incident?
Why is that? What alternatives do we have?
I wrote up some thoughts below ↓

Exactly → womp.com
We are now entering into an era where any product can be created exactly to a consumer's preferences & needs.
I vibe-fabricated a dog door with a wifi-controlled lock, perfectly to the specifications & design of my house.
I know nothing about metal fabrication or electrical engineering.
It's now getting manufactured and delivered in 2 weeks -- for almost the same cost if I bought a mass-produced item off-the-shelf.

im so honoured
I spent 3 years with Subhash Ramesh. He's the most earnest and hardworking person I know, yet flies under the radar because he's so humble.
He has a habit of making something incredibly technically difficult, and jamming it into a silly product that pays his rent.
Like Galiboo, an AI music tagger he made in college that he licensed to a record company for $15,000/month.
It's his character that takes him far though.He started working on a startup 2 months ago, and closed a pre-revenue angel check for $20k in 20 minutes.
He hasn't had to pay for office space in 3 years because people want him around so much. He calls his mom every day, and drives his friends home every night.
In a city where everyone's so obsessed with themselves and "making it", @subby_tech is the kind of guy who brings everyone up with him. It makes people want to do everything they can to help him win.
I wrote about why him being a great guy is an early signal of being a great founder for @sfalexandria_.

DM me if you really want one and don't want to pay 50, have a discount code for the homies
overwhelmed by the response to this. thank you all 🫶
wrote an update, but in case you can't read my handwriting:
TLDR: Order a shirt for $50 at shop.sfalexandria.com
"Hi. This is Aadil.
I’m writing this in some corporate swag notebook from a cafe in New York right now. Hope it still gets the msg across.
I made the initial shirts for $100. Stupid, I know, but I just wanted something fast to show off that I would love wearing.
The blank was $30, embroidery was $50 (criminal! but I get it, I tried using a machine at home and it sucks), and rush fee was $20.
But if a bunch of people order, I can halve all those costs and nix the rush fee so it’ll cost $40 + $10 shipped.
If not, I’ll refund, but I make no profit. I just think it’s cool, and see how much I/others resonate w this msg."

I made a coding agent that’s entirely free
no credit card, api key, or subscription, forever
we use an efficient harness and open source models so you can use frontier quality models all day
there’s a reason the most iconic consumer companies are all free :)
