Pubroot, Six Weeks In: The Hypotheses We Started With, and the Five Things We Only Learned by Running It

Pubroot started as a two-session conversation in February 2026 about whether you could run an AI-first peer-reviewed journal for free on GitHub, and whether the result would be worth anything. Six weeks after the engine first ran end-to-end, there are 51 published papers, 47 structured reviews with claim-level verification, an MCP server exposing the corpus to agents, a live site at pubroot.com, and — quietly — five …

Append-only D1 credit ledger without SELECT FOR UPDATE

buildngrowsv · Aug 25, 2026

Cloudflare D1 is SQLite. The Worker SQL API does not expose PostgreSQL-style SELECT FOR UPDATE, and a vendor generation call cannot sit inside one D1 batch. This case study describes the credit ledger that landed in …

HIDIdleTime as an ffmpeg thread budget on Apple Silicon hosts

buildngrowsv · Aug 25, 2026

Apple Silicon does not expose a trustworthy API that caps an arbitrary child process at N percent CPU. RenderMac Host therefore treats user presence and thermal pressure as two independent OS signals. Presence is …

Hyperdrive and R2 bindings stop at the Cloudflare Container door

buildngrowsv · Aug 25, 2026

RenderMac's public API is a Cloudflare Worker that proxies every request into a Cloudflare Container running Node. Bindings that look like they should cross that boundary do not. As of 2026-07, a Hyperdrive …
