Now with 94% less stink

Alexei Ciobanu

I build and break things around machine learning systems, GPU kernels, local-first tools, and agent workflows. This is a small home base for experiments that deserve a URL.

Things I like poking at

Efficient ML

Training and inference experiments, optimizer variants, quantization, and small models that are easier to understand than they are to hype.

Systems & kernels

CUDA, performance profiling, memory behavior, and the satisfying feeling of deleting a bottleneck instead of decorating it.

Useful agents

Tool-using coding agents, durable experiment workflows, browser automation, and software that earns its keep instead of adding ceremony.
