    You're right about understanding. Where we might disagree is the conclusion. I think it's possible to build the understanding without having to type out syntax by hand (debugging, …

    I'm really open to feedback. I checked your past comments and you posted: > AI is good at coding if there's an oracle. If the system is ancient, unreadable, untestable, that's exac…

    Agreed, which is why I also believe "token usage" and similar proxy metrics aren't the right ones for what's next.

    Makes sense, perhaps I'll post the raw notes + more material with the next article, prior to any edit. I like to use local models, even if they are not that powerful precisely beca…

    A genuine mistake. I make these posts for myself, mainly to structure & share my thoughts. Let me know if you find other errors, I appreciate the feedback.

    You are correct, my bad. I meant to write Gemma 4. I'll update.

    I've written this myself, Gemini 4 did a bit of editing: > What follows is a cleaned-up version of notes I accumulated over the past year. Gemini 4 helped with the editing. The ima…

    Super cool and well done. They are much better in 3D! :) I made a similar experiment a while ago and randomized the parameters. Given it's difficult to stumble on a stable arrangem…

    Sharing a small experiment that somewhat attracted a lot of attention yesterday, perhaps you'll like it too. Thesis: Many devices or apps listen in while not in use. We're assured …

    Great write-up! Gives me a few ideas for a governance bot that I'm working on. Thanks for sharing :)

    I fully agree. It's difficult though because I genuinely believe that the solution space overlaps with cryptography, which is quickly discounted as viable option because it is now …

    Vault doesn't use emails, usernames or anything like that. It's just shared as an example of a signer. It doesn't have to be that app per se, but it's the closest example I know of…

    I can’t tell, I don’t spend too much time on LinkedIn. What makes it feel that way to you?

    You're 100% right, it's about trust or lack thereof. Thank you for the Star Trek references. :D
