What actually happens when you send a request to an LLM? Gateway → tokenizer → router → queue → prefill → decode → streamed back to you, one token at a time. I'm tracing the whole trip tomorrow at Hacktoberfest 2026. ⚡ Thu, Oct 22 online @ 10am PT / 1pm ET link below 👇

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?

500+ registrations. MLH said 50 check-ins. 😭✌️ We said… nah. 💀 Somehow got 150+ builders into the venue, shipped crazy shit, and ran 3 sessions on Hacktoberfest, Open Source & Devcon. Hosted this absolute chaos with FAIR and had the time of my life. Crazy successful.
