  With the advance of AI, everyone is building and creating solutions. It is actually amazing to see people in Africa engage this creative field and produce products that could help their ecosystem. So I built a platform that will soon be the biggest directory of tech products made by people in Africa to solve African Problems. I am taking this path because I understand we have very different problems and different cultures and things work differently especially in Africa. What do you guys think? I want your feedback on everything.

  Needle: We Distilled Gemini Tool Calling into a 26M Model▲776

  Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
