Voice AI: Building Agents, Tool Reviews & Lessons Learned
A build-oriented reference for voice AI agents: how to choose an architecture, which platforms and frameworks are worth using in 2026, and the operational lessons that separate a good demo from a system that survives real calls. Organized as a path — architecture decision first, then platforms/frameworks, then the speech-model layer, then build craft, then the hard-won production lessons on latency, barge-in, and eval. Tag by stage to follow the path, by layer to compare tools, or by "lessons-learned" to jump straight to what breaks. Landscape moves monthly; notes flag what's dated. Researched Jul 2026.
Read the column →Summer 2026 Reading: Fiction
Summer 2026 fiction reading list — drawn from the current NYT fiction bestseller list (week of Aug 2, 2026) and cross-referenced with Amazon and Publishers Weekly. A spread across thriller, literary, historical, romance, and fantasy so there's a beach read and a book-club pick both. Each note says what the book is and who it's for. Tag by genre to match your mood, or by 'new-release' vs 'proven' for debut buzz vs a sure thing. Compiled Jul 2026; bestseller lists shift weekly.

A complete 3-week Reconstruction unit for AP US History (Period 5, KC-5.3, Topics 5.10–5.11), built as a student-facing assignment sequence.

Sources: National Archives, Library of Congress, Facing History, Stanford History Education Group, PBS, Zinn Education Project, NYPL.
