    That was fascinating. Hijacking the package manager to pass messages between models and agents.. that's next level. Like "pssst, if you need internet access there's a vulnerability…

    I compare this to doing my first smoke (was gifted a smoker). AI gave me the cut, the temp, the timing, the things to watch out for. Chicken's the best to try first, can't mess tha…

    And if AI wrote a book about these hypnotic powers, then it would be incredibly convoluted, long, and yet worn as a badge of pride to have survived it. Thinking about it, much of t…

    A recent rewire saw the electrician fit LED bulbs throughout the house. Modern fire safe housings etc, plenty of ventilation. These were not cheap off the shelf bulbs from the loca…

    You suggesting the inverse? Consciously labelling something as genuine / non AI incorrectly is fraud. "Forgetting" to add an AI label is an error of omission. Feels like the former…

    I was a bit disappointed it wasn't 42 pages long

    Cowork gets tangled with git as well. Fails, and then can't delete lock files. Running a helper from the terminal, making Claude work in a working directory, and then create a .com…

    The American industrial revolution is often cited as one such example. The patent act of 1793 is still relevant today [0] and was established to protect Americans stealing British …

    I have a lot of thoughts on this, I should start writing a bit more publicly.

    I'll be watching closely, we're moving this way very quickly. If you get there it'll save me a job! One thought, the knowledge graph rowboat creates is passive, based on context in…

    Tenda has been around for quite a few years now. I don't imagine they'll rebrand. I have an ethernet over power adapter somewhere in a cupboard from perhaps 10 years ago. Back then…

    I actually was using this quite a lot earlier this year, thanks for this! What I actually ended up doing was regularly pointing Claude at the Rowboat directory. Really useful to ha…

    Love it. Especially the fact you got it physically running on the M5 stack. My mind immediately went the other way though - feeding it to stop it evolving into the even worse next …

    Don't bite. You're right. Having spent a good weekend learning how to perform latent-steering through playing with pytorch and a local Gemma4 model, there is no way I could have gr…

    Quite the sweeping statement that contradicts my recent time across a few European countries. If the primary purpose is a bar that also serves food, yes. If it's proper dining. No

    But renting is a problem if there's no asset at the end of it. Even if rents were capped at half what a mortgage for the same property is, you still are in a position that once the…

    So Bedrock 4.6 is old school Opus? I know you can point Claude code at Bedrock.. might be worth a play.

    This hits a sweet spot I think for conversations too. I've been playing (for quite a while) on trying to encapsulate long running conversations. You have the overriding context, fa…

    It's a play on "in space no-one can hear you scream", not a literal "compute is so noisy we need to go to space" The jurisdiction issue is the bigger one. Deserts don't solve this;…
