    That resonates with me, too. I've tried building beautiful, does-one-thing well projects. I like the way you phrase it: > I try to be the best, in the list of “that specific featur…

    I use an M1 for personal development an an M4 for work. I'm a typical dev. I don't feel any difference.

    I am genuinely curious what you're hoping to get out of your goal to use claude code daily!

    Thank you for putting my feelings into words. "Really weird" is exactly how I feel. AI output in our work should be measured in engineering progress, not in use metrics, right?

    It's kind of crazy how nice people in multiplayer are. Nobody says anything about my mother or what kind of content I'm downloading to cause lag. Everyone's got the personality of,…

    The Gentleman is my go-to piano library to mess around! I have Noire and a few others, but have always loved its sound. But also, yeah, NI is to music what... VS Code is to devs, r…

    I love Addy's work, and enjoyed this article -- and I completely agree that it felt very LLM-y. I'm not sure what's scarier; that we know some of this didn't come from the author (…
