I will frequently post the output of a computer to slack as a part of an engineering discussion. For Claude output I'll treat it the same, wrap it in code blocks, and say something…

agreed, but IMO thats been true for most off-the-shelf skills I've seen. Instead I built my own "/meta" skill to improve my workflows, which I can use in targeted ways across my pr…

I think AI optimism is an easier jump for those already immersed in computer culture, or at least the subset of that culture who view automation as a virtue. For those either outsi…

Two years ago (Dec 2023), I visited Japan and try to use ChatGPT (GPT-3 era) to translate Kanji signs, it was OK but not great. A little over a year later (late April 2025, o1 era …

I've been trying to solve a lot of the issues brought up here, like personal automation, note taking, article summarizing/indexing, etc. What I've learned so far is that no level o…

Came here to say this as well. I've written and read full human-written essays on slack before AI. With that said, I don't disagree with the article. Don't use more word when few w…

My wife bought a Neo and has been very happy with it. I was wary of the 8gb memory limit but she is running claude code doing web development with a reasonable number of tabs open …

As others have said, the main benefit with Python over Rust is library support especially with ML features. The other gap as I see it with Rust is the lack of native flexible UI su…
