having used claude extensively for the past couple of months, i think there is still a lot of value to understanding your code and steering it intentionally. the amount of incidental complexity claude accumulates otherwise (which mostly results in bugs that it can't ever fix reliably) is staggering.

I finally had a chance to use GitHub Copilot in plan/agent mode, and it kind of broke my brain. In 10 minutes, it wrote a test application that would have taken me a few days to write. Extraordinary.

I just had to rebuild our internal web site. There is a 13 GB node modules folder.

In 1996 Quake was 50 MB. I could do networking, complex 3D rendering and sound.

30 years later we need 13 GB and still struggle to center a div across two browsers.

Web development is obscene.

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and itโ€™s good sheโ€™s gone.

But this doesnโ€™t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

I think more democratic governments should tell Trump to just fuck off instead of trying to be nice to him to avoid making him angry

Glad people are settling on the term "pervert glasses". Bonus points if you also say it while posting a picture of Mark Zuckerberg or call them Mark Zuckerberg's pervert glasses.

There's been a lot of debate within the Democratic establishment about what rhetoric to use via ICE.

Well, an incumbent doesn't lose by 48 percentage points very oftenโ€”and her vote on collaborating with ICE was the defining issue here.
