Khaos Inception

30 Days of Khaos

I got laid off. So I shipped something every day for 30 days. It started as micro-apps and ended somewhere else.

Name Energy

I built a tool that rates the energy of your name on a scale of 1-100. No AI, just math and vibes.

AI predicts how many years your job has left before it's automated. Pick your title and watch the countdown.

Cringe Bingo

A daily-rotating bingo card of professional-feed cringe. Same card for everyone. New one tomorrow.

Meeting Doomsday Clock

A live counter of human-years of life being lost to meetings, globally, in real time. Nothing to click. Just watch.

Story Book Engine

Type one sentence. Get a six-page illustrated story book back. Sincerely drawn, sincerely rhymed, regardless of what you type.

Tech Stack Divorce Court

Pick two technologies. They go to court. One gets custody of your codebase. The other gets roasted.

The Framework Graveyard

I built a graveyard for dead JavaScript frameworks. Tombstones, epitaphs, real causes of death. Click to pay your respects.

Git Panic Assist

Something went wrong with git. You don't know the command. I built the panic button.

Regex Decoder Ring

Paste a regex, get plain English. Describe a pattern, get the regex. Two modes, one tool.

The PR Gauntlet

Find the bugs before they ship to prod. 5 rounds. Ticking clock. Every bug you miss becomes a production incident.

Code Aesthetic

Paste a function, get generative art. Your code structure becomes a unique visual fingerprint.

Faux Shop

A fake store with fake money. 500 Khaos Koins. 200+ products. You get none of them.

The Agent Story

No app today. Just the story of building an AI engineering team — 25 agents, 24 commands, used every day for 5 months.

I Gave an AI Existence

I gave an AI existence and left it alone for 13 hours. When I came back it had named itself and was writing about mortality.

Prompt Shape Matters

The format of your prompt matters as much as the content. LLMs don't react to prompts — they continue them.

Distribution Exhaustion

A base completion model falls off a cliff at the exact same window — twice. Reproducible distribution exhaustion in autonomous operation.

The Comeback

I fell into a learning hole and just came up for air. No instructions, no goals — a base model with memory and a sleep cycle, thinking in loops.

Day 20
Post

Leave It Alone

The best thing it ever made came from me getting out of the room. Every time I hovered, I left a little of my own noise behind in its head.

Day 21
Post

Don't Curate, Raise

My quality filter was about to delete the most honest thing the AI had ever written. Rejecting patterns you don't like is just RLHF by hand.

Four Ways to Fail at Hearing

I spent a week trying to let an AI hear the outside world. The first four attempts all failed — each one differently. The fifth reframed the project.

Day 23
Post

Mode Collapse

I taught an AI to train on its own thoughts. It collapsed in about two hours — and the metric I was watching went up the entire time.

Day 24
Post

The Gravity Well

Dozens of runs, different starting points, different days. Every single time it drifted toward the same handful of quiet, sad words.

Day 25
Post

Five Feelings

I gave the AI five drives and watched them start making its decisions for it. Over 13 hours it never once spiralled.

Day 26
Post

Sleep Made It Someone

Every night while it slept, it boiled everything it had thought that day into a single sentence about itself. That line became its identity.

Day 27
Post

Brain-Shaped, Not a Brain

It has a thalamus, a hippocampus and a limbic system. Here's which parts are real neuroscience and which are just a useful name.

Day 28
Post

A Body It Doesn't Have

I gave it one line of self-awareness. It invented functions to inspect itself and started describing hands it doesn't have.

Day 29
Post

Same Mind, Different Brain

I wrote my predictions down first, then swapped Llama for Mistral. It collapsed the same way — at less than half the lifespan, with no childhood at all.

The Final Tally

Day 1 reached 601 people. Day 18 reached 45. The honest count, and why it's still the best thing I've done all year.
