Has anyone been to one of the VentureBeat events in SF? I've gone to the smaller NYC events and they were really technical. There is a larger event in SF next week. Curious if anyone went last year. Is it worth it?

As someone who doesn't use any of the more "advanced" features on sites like ChatGPT or Claude (agentic mode, memory, image generation, deep research, etc), I found the bloat of these services, both in UX and in performance, to be pretty tedious.

There are a million AI chat interfaces out there, but I could never find one that just did simple messaging and history in the most minimal and lightweight way possible. So I made my own.

Nully is written in Go and Vanilla HTML/CSS/JS. It literally just sends messages to OpenRouter, receives the result, and stores your messages locally. It's very simple, very clean, and very lightweight (see performance graphs on the site).

It has basic chat features, basic model settings, and works with just about any OpenRouter text model. It supports attachments and basic web search via the OpenRouter API.

I made Nully mostly for myself, but the cost to open-source it and host it on a cheap VPS is practically nothing, so I figured I'd release it if it can help anyone else. I don't make any revenue off of it, and have no desire to. There's no accounts, no subscriptions, and no proxies or middlemen (other than OpenRouter of course). You can export all of your chats to JSON, and everything stays on your local machine. It's 100% open source and self-hostable if you want that too. Let me know what you think!

Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about what gives me energy and what slowly takes it away. Those thoughts eventually turned into a small manifesto I called REST.
