- Created Nix flakes for reproducible builds on both our production and development environments.
- Used dependent type theory in Lean to prove that trajectories are within safe physical bounds.

- Designed a custom algorithm to convert LIDAR data into 3d coordinates.
- Built a multi-LLM robotic agent using OpenAI's GPT-5.2 and Google DeepMind's Gemini Robotics-ER 1.5.
- Mapped real-time orientation data from a Meta Quest 3 onto a physical moving camera arm.

Came out of a 2 year long hackathon retirement to win πŸ† GRAND PRIZE at TreeHacks 2026 !!!

In 36 hours, we:
- Manufactured, designed, and built an entire 4-armed surgery robot (+ a 6am trip to Home Depot).
- Wrote our own inverse kinematics control system.

Pyrefly vs. ty: Comparing Python’s Two New Rust-Based Type Checkers A deep dive into Meta's pyrefly and Astral's ty - two new Rust-based Python type checkers that both promise faster performance and better type inference.

Just finished a new blog post! πŸŽ‰ πŸ‘€

This goes into a deep dive into Python's two new type checkers, Pyrefly by Meta and ty by Astral (the team behind uv and ruff)

Edward Li's Blog I'm Edward Li, a Computer Science and Physics student at the [University of British Columbia](https://www.ubc.ca)! Currently, I live in San Francisco building software agents at [Codegen](https://cod...

Just started a blog!

Been wanting to do this for a while now, but never got the chance to sit down and set it up.

A little empty ATM but hopefully I can get some cool content up in the following weeks.
