Hacktoberfest wraps up this week, but what you learned doesn't have to. 🎃
Keep building, share what you made, and help the next builder get started.
There's still time to join: hacktoberfest.com
ALT Hacktoberfest 2026: What to do with what you learned. A group of developers wearing Hacktoberfet T-shirts pose for a photo and smile.
ALT Keep building on your Hacktoberfest projects. That project you started at a Hack Day doesn't have to end when October does. Swap in a new open-weight model, add a feature, or turn your demo into something you actually use every day.
ALT Share what you made. Push your code to a public repo, write up what worked (and what didn't), or post a quick demo video. Open source runs on people sharing what they've learned.
ALT Pass it on. Answer a question in a community forum, help a friend run their first model locally, or bring someone new to your next hackathon.

Every AI prompt uses water. Drip flips that: a @lahacks build running @googlegemma 4 that turns AI waste heat into fresh water using membrane distillation. 💧

What actually happens when you call an LLM API? 🤔
I've been working on this visual explainer for a while, and I'm excited to finally share it! 🎬
Follow a single request from client → gateway → tokenizer → router → queue → GPU (prefill + decode) → streamed response.
Along the way, explore optimizations like:
KV caching / Prompt caching
Cache-aware routing
Continuous batching
Disaggregated prefill/decode
Speculative decoding
I recently gave a talk on this at Hacktoberfest 2026, but here's the entire journey in just 5 minutes!
Watch it and let me know what you think! 👇
Full talk and repo in the reply.

335 builds in 19 days.
The Sanity DEV Challenge winners are in. Agents that actually know things, a shelter for adoptable potholes, and a wine cellar with a memory.

Open source is built on a simple idea: what you learn, you share. 🎃
What's one thing you've learned from contributing that could help the next first-timer?

Some hackers found a nice surprise under their chairs at DubHacks over the weekend.

It’s live. 🌿
My Hacktoberfest “Touch Grass” build: The Security Dictionary — Trail Edition.
Kids learn a security concept by hunting for it outside, and a voice reads the mission aloud so the phone can go in your pocket. Firewall → find the fence. IOC → find the clues.
Built on local Gemma + ElevenLabs. Field-tested by my toughest critics. 💜

I joined Hacktoberfest 2026 today and attended “Introduction to Gemma with Google DeepMind” with @IanBallantyne and @SwiftAlphaOne .
I went in thinking I’d learn about another AI model.
Instead, I started thinking about a much bigger question:
Where should AI actually live?

Hopped into the Hacktoberfest 2026 launch stream with MLH and the chat is an absolute party right now. 827 people live, everyone hyped, someone already asking about PR limits like it's day one of the hunt. Pulling up good first issues as we speak. #Hacktoberfest2026
