Post #2604410
Its been a while and unfortunately I haven&#39;t been able to keep up to date with my blog posts. Ive hard a couple heavy weeks at work, plus attended a whole weekend conference about Expository Listening (will post about it shortly), and I can&#39;t neglect my bible reading so I had to sacrifice not having any recent blogposts. I expect to come back writing this week for next week and post about exciting #OpenAI upgrades and announcements!

I will show off the breads I made today 😅 yes, I do bake on Tuesdays and have been doing it for a while. Haven’t bought bread at the store for months now and I enjoy it a lot!

For the ones that don’t know, Viko has been my nickname since elementary…. Given that I was bored and out of ideas for today’s design and had just a little time I decided to just sign my bread 😆

Great book about Expository Listening and if you are NOT a pastor, you should read this! (It is still useful for pastors, but I want to emphasize that it’s a must read for listeners/readers of The Word of God) #christianity

Actually, thinking about it I should probably post about yesterday&#39;s OpenAI announcement, otherwise it would be old news.... will do it shortly (maybe in the afternoon)

OpenAI just turned ChatGPT into a platform: apps inside the chat, AgentKit for real workflows, Codex GA with Slack and SDK, plus AMD scaling compute. Full recap and why it matters for builders. #OpenDev #AIDev https://victornava.dev/2025/10/07/opendev-recap-everything-openai-announced/

One of my favorite things on November that my wife never understands (actually never do I) is watching Charlie Brown Thanksgiving special…. Every year at least once!!!

It’s been a while since my last post, sorry about that. Life, work, and a lot of tinkering got in the way. I finally published something I’ve been playing with over the past month: a deep dive into **OpenClaw**, an AI assistant I’ve been building. This post is mostly technical, focused on agents, cronjobs, and webhooks, but hopefully still enjoyable. If all goes well, next week I’ll share something much more practical. #AI #Engineering #SoftwareArchitecture #Automation https://victornava.dev/...

AI assistants are easy to talk about, harder to actually use. I wrote about real OpenClaw use cases, why it’s different from a normal LLM, and how to set it up on Ubuntu step by step. Self-hosted, practical, and built to do real work. #OpenClaw #AI https://victornava.dev/2026/02/17/openclaw-beyond-the-hype-practical-use-cases-and-a-hands-on-ubuntu-install/

CI/CD automated steps after you push code. Agentic repos automate tasks around the code: triage, upgrades, tests, refactors. The trick is the PR as the contract, with logs and guardrails, and humans still merge. #DevOps#SoftwareEngineering #AI https://victornava.dev/2026/02/24/agentic-repos-the-new-ci-cd-is-ci-cd-tasks/

I fired my AI agent. Not because it failed, but because it was too expensive and unpredictable for what I actually needed. I replaced OpenClaw with cronjobs, webhooks, and scripts built with AI assistance. Costs dropped by 90%. Reliability improved. Complexity decreased. Autonomy is exciting. Determinism scales.

I try to keep political topics off my blog and stick to facts, even if Aveesha loves reminding me I can be cynical. Still, one idea feels impossible to ignore: sci-fi has warned us for years about handing too much power to machines. AI can be a great assistant, but it should never be the final decision-maker. From sci-fi to healthcare, this post explores why AI should support human judgment, not replace it. #AI #ResponsibleAI #AISafety #HumanInTheLoop #TechEthics https://victornava.dev/2026/0...
