So they're not human then. The quote holds up.

It won't be made of people for long given how many Ellison is culling to prop up his gamble on AI data centres.

It amuses me that you have consistently refused to draw the connection to this 'ocean' of asphalt and the purpose of the building it was designed for and are basically being obtuse…

I'm failing to understand what is so impressive. The credits at the start are off centre, biased to the right hand side. The prose that follows is fully centred, so it hangs to the…

Nothing ever improves in the tech scene... it just decays until someone challenges it. Funnily enough CF has redesigned its navigation several times in the past year, just like Git…

The announcement reads like it's generated by AI. I opened it looking for a punch list of selling points but there was nothing. I figured it was just Cloudflare trying to do Cowork…

Bring back FastCGI, enable the setting in Apache to list a directory, and point the agent to your cgi-bin directory full of all your tools. Calling the bin without any input provid…

It's still too early stage for me. Anthropic needs to mature for a little longer before they're enlightened enough to understand my kafka-based event sourcing model for cross-agent…

Probably see it as the easy way out because actually bringing about change in a culture that is already entrenched is hard work and they don't have the mettle for it. Or don't trus…

At risk of sounding like a grump, once I started at a company where almost everyone is partnered up and has kids, and almost everyone basically has nothing to talk about except the…

I'm amused by Claude developing its own corporate jargon which, while clearly pulled from the corpus of human language, is quite distinct from the bullshit traded over the boardroo…

Of course I have. If I see ghostty constantly consuming the most energy and helping reduce my battery life to barely 2 or 3 hours, the first thing I'm going to do is switch termina…

> bun was vibe coded by a single dude without any open source community involvement. I think even this is largely beside the point. The acquisition of any project by Big Capital (w…

I never knew that running an interactive program in my terminal would absolutely rinse my CPU and battery but that's what Claude, OpenCode and Ghostty have colluded to achieve. Eve…

How does that work out in terms of usage? I imagine that, unless you're on the highest tier subscription or have a no expense spared approach to agentic coding, then you're going t…

It's very strange to vibe code a project and feel both a lack of emotional investment but also the cognitive overhead of steering an AI. The process of iteration, or the feedback l…

Anthropic's suite of products have practically zero cohesion across each other. I've said it some time before. There is no clear product vision or overarching roadmap in terms of u…

I figured pi itself would be the best harness because it's barebones and you make it what you want. omp is to pi what doom is to emacs is what lazyvim is to neovim.

Purely anecdotally the one persistent issue I have with LLMs writing code is that they are absolutely paranoid and add a load of indirection and defensive crap and even if you prom…

> Pi is meant for people who know what they are doing How many people genuinely know what they're doing when the value prop of Pi is basically to vibe code it to your taste? The en…

Nothing in (AGENTS|CLAUDE).md, no Cursor style rules. Just some skills for Jira/Confluence, CI, and Playwright. Haven't bothered doing any extra customisation in Claude Code or Cod…

Needed to pay my bills. It tided me over for a short while.

Waiting for the next gig. This was before I learned that sometimes it's better to take the hit and walk away.

I've struggled with this, even encountering people who basically say "if AI can do it why do I need to spend any more time?" It was disappointing hearing someone tank their own pro…

They'll frame it as not wanting to waste anybody's time by submitting you as a candidate if you're already mid-flight on other positions, but they can still figure that out without…
