Yet another memory system for LLMs
Built this for my LLM workflows - needed searchable, persistent memory that wouldn't blow up storage costs. I also wanted to use it locally for my research. It's a content-addressed storage system with block-level deduplication (saves 30-40% on typical codebases). I have integrated the CLI tool into most of my workflows in Zed, Claude Code, and Cursor, and I provide the prompt I'm currently using in the repo. The project is in C++ and the build system is rough around the edges but is tested on macOS and Ubuntu 24.04.

In plain words
Yet Another Memory System for LLMs is a content-addressed storage system designed for developers using large language models in their workflows. It provides searchable, persistent memory while minimizing storage costs through block-level deduplication, which typically saves 30-40% on codebases. The system includes a CLI tool that integrates with Zed, Claude Code, and Cursor, and runs locally on macOS and Ubuntu 24.04. Built in C++, it includes example prompts for immediate use in LLM workflows.

Hey HN! I'm José, and I built Recall to solve a problem that was driving me crazy. The Problem: I use Claude for coding daily, but every conversation starts from scratch. I'd explain my architecture, coding standards, past decisions... then hit the context limit and lose everything. Next session? Start over. The Solution: Recall is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that gives Claude persistent memory using Redis + semantic search. Think of it as long-term memory that survives context limits and session restarts. How it works: - Claude stores important context as "memories" during…
Continual Learning with .mdApr 2026 · github.com · ▲34I have a proposal that addresses long-term memory problems for LLMs when new data arrives continuously (cheaply!). The program involves no code, but two Markdown files. For retrieval, there is a semantic filesystem that makes it easy for LLMs to search using shell commands. It is currently a scrappy v1, but it works better than anything I have tried. Curious for any feedback!

Kitten TTS is an open-source series of tiny and expressive text-to-speech models for on-device applications. We are excited to launch a preview of our smallest model, which is less than 25 MB. This model has 15M parameters. This release supports English text-to-speech applications in eight voices: four male and four female. The model is quantized to int8 + fp16, and it uses onnx for runtime. The model is designed to run literally anywhere eg. raspberry pi, low-end smartphones, wearables, browsers etc. No GPU required! We're releasing this to give early users a sense of the latency and voices…

I was wondering how I can arrange objects along a spherical helix path, and read some articles on it. I ended up learning about parametric equations again, and make this visualization to document what I learned: https://visualrambling.space/moving-objects-in-3d/ feel free to visit and let me know what you think!
