Token-streaming code generation optimized for Raspberry Pi CM4 + cloud architecture
I’ve been working on this latest for about the last 4-5 months, and after much testing (including complete isolation from my VPN-router running on the VPS at the same time), i’ve finally completed all the documentation and changed the repository’s status from private to public.
This was an interesting project, that seemed a logical next-step after everything I learned concerning VPS integration with edge devices, the uConsole in particular, while building cyberdeck -router
I will add that I have in my current pipeline plans for further expansion (after a few hardware upgrades, including Hacker-Gadgets CM5 adapter board + NVMe battery tray, there is more but I won’t get into that now). I hope to have work following the development of Cerebrum, with a new repository I’ll create, by sometime maybe in the spring of 2026…
I’m surprised to see this is a FOSS project that was carefully developed for use on the uConsole. I would gladly choose this if I had use for it.
I do fear that you are dissuading your target audience with your choice of style. This looks very corporate, spammy, and irrelevant at first. An unnecessary legal mark (unless you went and registered “cerebrum” in the Trademark Office, in which case it’s a very unnecessary legal action) and corporate formatting in your title make this off-putting - just tell us what it is, don’t shower us with buzzwords. “uConsole-intended AI tool” would be more interesting here.
Hackers love FOSS and hate lawyers. You are using legalese in your post on a forum used by hackers, despite your program being (apparently) useful, highly relevant, and open. Please accept my troubleshooting your communication errors with the problem-solving spirit in which it is intended.
Minecraft was the OG FOSS and it’s solo dev Markus Alexej Persson had his name with the exact TM + (C), only many years later when franchises were created was he able to attain something meaningful. I simply followed that famous lead. Sadly Microsoft removed Markus name from the splash in 2019, but it’s still in the closing credits.
I have many months of work invested in this, nice to read your brief comment makes it all seem so worth the effort, anyway it works flawlessly, and not by accident I can tell you. This is just the beginning, there is more coming…
notch originally made Minecraft free but then charged for it and barred access from its source code. He had a good idea but he’s hardly a role model; the game still suffers from poor, fundamental decisions (like Java) he made nearly 20 years ago.

I’m going to assume this is genuine and not passive aggressive; treating your projects as if they are projects, made for yourself, and labeling and discussing them as such makes them much more approachable. Plenty of corporate products pretend to be projects, too - people want to use stuff made by other people and not by machines or megacorps.
Wow! Licensing is a requirement you are aware, when I select the MIT license my name and copyright are automatically assigned by GitHub! Additionally I must comply with the terms of Qt’s LGPL v3 license when I distribute the source to build the GUI with Qt6. What did you make? Aside from mean comments I’m interested to know? I’m supporting one of my favorite tools by actively developing and then freely distributing my work, and that I would like to have my ascii art title at least minimally protected when theftdom today is rampant is somehow offensive to you? So I added TM, what of it? I am truly amazed and befuddled by your comments! I will not engage with trolls when I have much work to do, thank you have a nice day.
yeh AI wrecked Twitter, I was having a blast with devs mostly from Japan we were all sharing our progress with 3D character modeling, then when AI broke, everyone went silent, and after the switch to X nothing changed, Twitter is still dead. I went back to designing PCBs figuring AI wasn’t interested in that kind of art. I designed about 15 new boards for hobby robotics, sold a few, not enough to pay the costs but something, then started fixing the errors when compiling ros2_rolling for my legacy 2014 Mac Mini because too poor for silicon. and I did fix them all working through 369 individual modules/submodules even building many dependencies from source. So then I created forks, then my own repo, and kept going… mind you I was a traditional artist some 40 years before 3D modeling, which now AI can do, sort of, it cannot do perfection, that requires bespoke tailoring with attention to detail in the perfect arrangement of all the lines and vertices, but it can do a lot, much that people will probably be happy with it they don’t concern about quality.
I was the most anti-AI person you could imagine when it was snapping up art, but no one seemed to care, not congress who took money from Adobe and OpenAI, not people who could make things with it, only those who like myself had done everything manually prior. Now finally I am using it as well, I would be a fool not to all things considered. Every developer large and small is using it, but it doesn’t do the work for you, you must architect the design and concept, and assemble many countless integrations together, add something and cascading errors that only compound as the layers are added, but what might otherwise take years can be done in months, which is something… the future will hold many interesting things I feel today, I’m even looking into PQC for the not so distant future, all that I lack are time and $, sadly these are the resources that do not come so easily. Eh, but at least I’m keeping myself busy. I enjoy the work even if I’m not paid for it.
I’m see a new startup focused on robot’s ‘visual brain’ just raised $107M, three ex-Apple engineers teamed up to form Lyte, and I’m here giving my work away for free while eating nothing but popcorn and doritos 2 weeks straight, and then this sillyness. It’s ok have your fun, I’m really getting back to work now because that’s my happy place.
Yeah, but usually it’s a (c) 20xx yourname here. Or made with qt6 (under the lgpl3; see QT6_LICENSE.txt). If you haven’t actually registered your trademark the glyph is superfluous. I imagine registered trademarks specifically could be somewhat useful legally when dealing with clone apps, but if you’re releasing free software for free systems, you’re releasing to a community that isn’t confused by SEO spam or fake listings. People get things from their package managers.
If you feel my comments have been mean I encourage you to point out where exactly my comments hurt your feelings so I can try to be more sensitive in the future. I’m going to answer with “nothing” as I don’t believe it’s necessary to have made software in order to criticize not its function but the minor mistakes in its marketing.
I don’t believe reaction GIFs are necessary or productive here.
Selflessness in creation is understanding and accepting that your art may be stolen. It’s the greatest form of flattery. People will always seek the honest alternative, the original thing. They don’t want the ad riddled, featureless knock off. Why else are iPhones with Flappy Bird still so valuable, even when you can play a clone in the browser?
I was planning to release the source for the new GUI soon, maybe I won’t, just use the repl.
It’s my work and maybe I’ll just hang on to it this time. so far no one seems interested enough anyway. The live animations are really cool though, I hate to be so put off by just what I’ve received here, can’t say as I’m “marketing” anything. I have no Patreon or any revenue derived from any of this, I probably should… If people stop building and sharing for this and other affordable edge devices that would be unfortunate. Who would benefit if that happens? Oh the corporations that pick up the slack when selling their wares of course. Hard to say what exactly is going on here but it seems a bit off to me.
