What it does

xoFocus uses AI highlighting to help you focus while reading online. Jump between key sentences using the Return and Shift Keys–no more aimless scrolling. Free extension for Chromium browsers.

Reading is getting harder. Your eyes are constantly in demand, and there's less signal to be found in all the noise. But that doesn't mean we should rely on bots to read for us. If you agree, we've built something for you. Our intelligent, context-aware highlights emphasize key information to guide your attention. Instead of scrolling around, navigate a page along key sentences identified by a language model. Our assistive system guides your attention to the most relevant sentences on a page. Rather than chatting with a black box or relying on a summarizer, focus on your own understanding while staying within the original context. This isn't summarization. Summarization loses context – and…from xofocus.net

  • Hi everyone, I built PyXL — a hardware processor that executes a custom assembly generated from Python programs, without using a traditional interpreter or virtual machine. It compiles Python -> CPython Bytecode -> Instruction set designed for direct hardware execution. I’m sharing an early benchmark: a GPIO test where PyXL achieves a 480ns round-trip toggle — compared to 14-25 micro seconds on a MicroPython Pyboard - even though PyXL runs at a lower clock (100MHz vs. 168MHz). The design is stack-based, fully pipelined, and preserves Python's dynamic typing without static type restrictions.…
