In a related idea... https://jslightning.com Sort of a PHP-like, folder based web serving tool that executes Javascript. Very quick and fluid.

At least, pay them for the inferior intelligence until Donald Trump says you can.

Donald Trump cares about it and frequently uses our government to abuse people he does not like, to carry out grudges and vendettas. There is no doubt in my mind that he is persona…

Just use a Macintosh. You can simply tell it to be fn keys instead.

So, you do without. Easy Peasy.

If, like me, you specifically do not want third parties inside the Apple ecosystem, Apple has done a great job. I totally hate the EU's insistence of tearing down Apple's walled ga…

AS we all have complained, Apple has been working on Apple Intelligence for, roughly speaking, forever. Their private compute cloud thing and the protocols that protect it have, I …

The EU isn't asking for more privacy. This is about interoperability and competition. They don't like Apple controlling the AI interface and want a portal. They want Apple to put a…

Another upgrade. Now the skill knows to create a containing folder with index.html if none exists and then to link any new docs to it. Now I have a favorite in my bookmark bar for …

By "planning", I actually meant "thought of one time". So, I did it. The endpoint verifies that the destination specified by the POST is in my project folder. If it points at an ex…

This makes me think of a thing I have been planning to do. Maybe one of you will do it and tell me some cool refinements. I run a web server on my Mac. Consequently, I have an HTTP…

I can edit html. Also, I don't bother with html editing. If it's a doc that needs editing, I just tell Claude to format it for ease of editing and then I just go through and type w…

YES YES YES and MORE YES Generating markdown is faster so unlike our friend here, I still do use it for straightforward things. BUT, in general, I tell Claude, "I think we should s…

"in practice"? Disrespectful, of course, but also not true. In practice, most designers know what they are doing as well as you know your job. If yours doesn't, you hired a quack. …

I don't see it as a misstep at all. The purpose of StackOVerflow is to share expertise. I am 100% supportive of it being used for training... AI, you, everyone.

Tough call giving up a good job. Admiration.

Don't have it do things for you. Have it do things with you.

I have had things like your React instead of Vue problem. I solved it by always having Claude write a full implementation spec/plan in markdown which I give to a fresh context Clau…

Back then, also around May, I had Claude 3.old destroy a working app. Those were sad old days. Hasn't happened in a long time. Opus 4.6 is a miracle improvement.

An advantage I have enjoyed is that I am insanely careful about my fundamental architecture and I have a project scaffold that works correctly. It has examples of all the parts of …

I would love it if someone explained what their ten agents Ralphing away were actually told to do. I suppose if you are doing something that truly can be decided based on a test bu…

YES YES YES!! I so wish that we could go back in time and never, ever have even suggested anything other that what you say here. AI doesn't do it for you. It does it with you. You …

Every time I try to use Claude Desktop, I quickly feel like it's like trying to type wearing mittens. No bueno, at least for me.

My wife calls Claude my girlfriend. I do a ton of programming but I also use it to learn all kinds of stuff. I'm into physics, history and philosophy and have done wonderful explor…

The brainstorming, investigation and planning are so much fun, aren't they? Having an infinitely patient, super smart colleague available all the time is amazing.
