Man, that progress bar is so satisfying to watch...

Truly a fun way to monitor training

Decided to liven up training of some of my models...

Watched star trek TNG with my dad growing up, so just felt like if you are building the future...

5 minutes to load a embedding model... I'm not holding my breath for in-browser semantic search

Well... worth a try, but I don't think people are going to wait that long to search documentation

If I wanted to go get my food I wouldn’t have used Uber Eats…

Always remember to fuzz your AI generated code, btw.

Using the GitHub copilot cli and it used the sqlite3 cli to update one of it's todos, asked me permission and everything

Super weird UX, assume it's not supposed to do that? Or maybe all their 'todo' features are bash calls to a session DB?

Claude code has gotten hard to work with re: agent SDK using the plan, so decided to test out a new approach that just leverages tmux into a server and agents running to connect to a server to orchestrate

Eventually will merge it into a local app, but browser for now

Claude: "Let me git stash and prove these were pre-existing errors, then git pop"

Me: "...or you could just fix them"

Raced against the clock and opened up all the projects I could manage to max out my weekly usage before it reset tonight

Now back to focused development...

> Build parser to extract rules from a PDF spec doc
> Run parser
> Looking good
> Ask Claude to audit
> Suddenly we are exceeding the spec I did a straight ETL from

Okay Claude, now I'm worried...

Another thing crossed off my bucket list, finally drove a car to 0mi range and got an alert!!!

Based on the refuel I still had at least a 10th of a gallon left + whatever was on the line, should have pushed it more

Me: "An HDMI disconnected icon doesn't make any sense, how would the user see it?"

Claude: "I changed the icon to a toast when the cable disconnects!"

Me: (censored)

Claude: "A TTS message now plays when HDMI is disconnected"

Been just defaulting to bun javascript for little one off things, just love a runtime that

a) has scripting first class, no massive project overhead required
b) batteries included

Skeptical of it at first, but honestly a great project

Wanted to challenge Claude.

A character animator based on first principles, understanding every part of the anatomy and how it functions, leveraging all the knowledge in the world to build it from the bones up

I guess I forgot to specify the species... or the planet of origin

Claude is on point today.

I feel like it should push back... but then it would be GTP and wouldn't get anything done

Dogfooding my own PHP compiler.

Love doing things the language was never designed for.

Haven't touched PHP in years but this is genuinely fun. Think PHP might be the future

Pre-AI: ‘Sounds good, I’ll check back in two weeks and see how it’s going’

AI: ‘Taking 27 seconds, why is this agent so dang slow. We need more power’

I assume because AI is too fast to do anything else but not fast enough to not have to wait

Every project I work on does something novel...

So AI keeps fighting me. It adds shortcuts to bypass the features that actually matter.

Makes me optimistic though. The novel stuff is still hard

Used to be 'Opus only', but is Sonnet 4.6 more expensive than Opus 4.6?

Does it consume more or less of my usage?

The default in claude code is Opus, but I'm hitting my limits on max, so should I be using more sonnet?

Been using GLM5 and GTP5.3-codex as well, but idk

Nice, got the SonarQube MCP working with claude code on a personal project.

Fair bit of FPs as usual with SQ, but it's an oddly complex project that I think will benefit from SQ's tracking. Super easy to setup

Dear Claude,

If I wanted practical approaches, I’d be building CRUD apps.

I'm here for the cool and novel, the impractical is why I use AI.

Thanks.

Put Claude on a PIP.

It was a tough call, but Opus 4.6 is apparently learning obstinance from GPT 5.x

Hopefully it improves, but I'm drafting the job advertisement as we speak

The Uber Eats service fee… so the driver is paying for lead generation and support?

So is uber charging drivers to accept orders as a ‘commission’ or something?

Feels sketchy, trying to take it out of both ends

We've achieved human-level AGI

Spend an hour telling the agent exactly what to do, how to do it, how to verify it...

...come back to find it decided your approach required actual work and simplified everything by ignoring everything said. Same as a human.

Been really fun building a web server w/ SQLite, just awesome performance

SQLite is pretty great for read heavy workloads, you can embed the DB in your app, no network, underrated option. Wouldn't choose if write heavy

Less than 12hrs into my week on Claude Code max plan

Just vanilla chat, working on 2 projects

Is this a tunable thing? Is this to push people to '/extra-usage'

I used to not have issues on limits, but default recommended settings are a roller coaster with this product now

Honestly found gtp-codex has just awful UX instincts, which is why I think so many devs like it. It gives engineer-brained solutions that are just rough to use and navigate for normal folks

Fact or Fiction?: NASA Spent Millions to Develop a Pen that Would Write in Space, whereas the Soviet Cosmonauts Used a Pencil The problem of weightless writing was not solved by either Soviet central planning or good old American sub-contracting, but by a private investor and a good idea

TIL: NASA only spent $2.39 per pen for the space pens and stopped using pencils because having floating flakes, splinters and flammable sticks isn’t space friendly

LLMs treat their previous wrong answers like sacred legacy code that must be preserved at all costs

And ignore instructions not to. Tech debt at all costs!

Gemini's attempt at a SVG character.

Gemini is just so much fun... which it was actually useful
