Recorded presentations

Two public talks, full provenance on-disk.

The same Manobo / ICC / IPs lecture for USeP EGE 313, delivered in September 2024 — first as a ChatGPT-assisted draft (the AI-engineering workflow), then as a live Presenter-view delivery. Both recordings are public; the PowerPoint file metadata in the Edit-mode frame proves provenance.

Live Presenter-view delivery, Sep 13 2024. Webcam lower-right; deck filename 'MACION. MANOBO. PIC. ECE3A. 230pm. MW' visible in the PPT Edit-mode frame.
Three weeks before the lecture: same deck, drafted end-to-end via a ChatGPT session. The precursor pattern to the current 31-gate authoring harness.

Things I can import.

Three new repositories shipped with the v3.5 site. Each is MIT-licensed,offline-runnable, and dependency-light. Each one is a small, auditable artifact that demonstrates the eval-first methodology in code rather than prose.
