I recently developed a custom n8n node package that connects Bee AI with the n8n workflow automation platform, opening up new possibilities for automating personal AI data. What is Bee AI? Bee AI is a wearable personal AI device that sits quietly in the background, capturing and processing your daily interactions. Unlike traditional smart assistants that require explicit activation, Bee continuously learns from your conversations, tasks, and locations, transforming these moments into actionable insights, summaries, and reminders. ...

Self-RAG (Self-Reflective Retrieval-Augmented Generation) is a framework that combines the benefits of retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) with self-reflection, allowing large language models (LLMs) to adaptively retrieve passages on-demand and generate more accurate responses. Langgraph recently published a blog post on Self-RAG with their own implementation. I really like the idea of validating the retrieved information. In that past I have noticed that, while vector databases will return documents that usually match the input query string, some may contain irrelevant content. Having the ability to validate and correct this is a great feature for any RAG setup. ...

It’s been few weeks since my last update. I have been quite busy working on a lot of interesting stuff. Some related to this project, some a bit less. Here is a preview of the Dynamic lightning I have been working on. It’s not live for now since it needs a lot of small adjustments before being 100% usable. ...

Ok now it’s getting a bit more serious. We can now create, save and restore maps in the editor: ...

I’m still playing with canvas and I plugged the dungeon generator I worked on a year ago. This is the result: ...

The context With the COVID-19 and the shelter in place, there is not much opportunities to play D&D face to face with friends. Some groups decided to go to platforms like Roll20 or Fantasy Ground. While I love those apps they are lacking something in my opinion: an integration with DnD Beyond. I personally have a LOT of digital content on DnD Beyond and the idea of buying it again on another platform is not something I am considering. ...

Few months ago, I worked on a Chrome extension to make my life easier when DMing D&D using DnD Beyond characters. DM Screen Extension Screenshot D&D Beyond Campaign DM Screen The extension has a simple goal: providing the characters’s stats in a useful way and refreshing the data when the character’s sheets are updated. Without the extension With the extension When using the embedded version of the DM screen: When using the popup version: ...

Few months ago, a friend of mine @florpeliere started to work on progressives web apps. First, I was intrigued, but not that much. Then he gave us a talk about them, and I started to realise the potential of this concept. Well, it is not a huge change, it is something which is used for a while; but now, there is a name on it and an official specification. A web app on my phone, with offline data, ok but what kind of app ? ...

During the last past year, I trained a lot of people on AngularJS in my company. Lately, I was thinking that our repository was old and not really good looking. Then, I had an idea, what if I wanted to train people outside of my company, like in university for example. So with this idea I decided to create a new set of exercises to learn how to develop a web application using AngularJS. That is exactly what Blogular is. ...

Last week, I gave a talk about EmberJS. As a long time user of AngularJS 1.x some people were expecting a comparaison between these two frameworks. My point was more about what is Ember, what is the good and the bad with this framework. I was hoping to give to people the envy of trying it. And after the talk some of them told me that they will try. I am currently working on a simple hands-on training on EmberJS. I will probably provide it in few weeks in Paris. Let me know in the comments if you are interested. ...
