Where we share what we learn building smol machines, and how we think about computers, AI agents and the infrastructure they run on.
AI agents work on real computers, and computers have no undo. smol machines checkpoints an agent's whole machine, so it can undo a bad step, go back to any earlier point or try several paths at once.

Here is how API remoting works and how it stacks up against passthrough, vGPU, and container device injection.
