Distributed Minds — Interactive System Design, AI & Algorithm Demos

System Design Concepts

01

How real distributed systems behave under load — scaling, routing, and caching, made visible.

Walk through replication, sharding, and read/write scaling strategies as a database grows from one node to many.

Watch round-robin, least-connections, and other routing algorithms distribute traffic across servers in real time.

Explore Redis data structures and commands hands-on to build intuition for how an in-memory store is actually used.

The other half of the replication demo: the real commands and config, step by step, plus a Docker Compose version to try locally.

02

The internals of modern AI systems — from a single request to a full retrieval pipeline.

Trace a single query through retrieval, ranking, and generation to see exactly what a RAG pipeline does end to end.

03

Classic algorithm and data-structure problems, animated step by step instead of just explained.

Binary Tree Maximum Path Sum, turned into a guided hunt through the tree so the recursion actually clicks.

See a binary tree get flattened into a string and rebuilt again, frame by frame.

Find the longest run of consecutive numbers in O(n) — without sorting — explained in plain English.
