# Selected Evidence — Yossi Eliaz Canonical page: https://yossieliaz.netlify.app/evidence/ ENGINEERING / SCIENCE / PRODUCTION / OPEN SOURCE / WRITING / TALKS / TEACHING The career story progresses through navigation, kernels, containers, physical and genomic systems, production ML, build infrastructure, and AI execution. Evidence labels distinguish public, inspectable artifacts from employer-specific production work. ## AI execution & build systems SIMULATION · OSS ### Meta-harness on Islo Deterministic simulation of an iterative harness-optimization loop on five toy tasks: a scripted agent, a pattern-matching proposer, and a proposed (unvalidated) Islo backend.
