this has actually been an issue I've thought about a lot because i keep making tweaks in projects and then it's really difficult to capture those tweaks across all projects to update my speckit fork.
with pi, the skills don't have to live in the project like claude slash commands do (a claude code constraint, not a speckit design choice). they can be set globally so any change to skills is immediately available to all projects.
A while ago I forked github speckit (which I love) and tweaked it to suit my needs. now I'm trying to make a pi-native version, so no cli, just skills , and scripts, and templates.
I’m not using claude code any more - I’m using a fully customizable, minimal, terminal based “ai harness” - basically I’m using claude (or any model) under the hood, and it is like claude code (or cursor or warp or windsurf) but fully the way I want it. it is fun. @mitsuhiko.at @mariozechner.at
i loved your interview with syntax - just installed pi and it's amazing
I was just typing out a comment starting with "this is" - and Pycharm tried to autocomplete it to "this is basically a hack" - and I have never been more offended by an AI.
Could you imagine if the head of the United States healthcare system didn’t believe that HIV caused AIDS?
…And that instead they believed that AIDS is caused by recreational drugs (“poppers”) used by gay people?
Oh wait…🥴
hey friends. I made this over the weekend. It was both a way to channel my general despair and anger while potentially creating something that might help people understand what's happening with the recent measles outbreaks and vaccine misinformation.

Also from Canada. I’ve lived here for about 20 years. While I did get my US citizenship a couple years ago I always had people suggest that as well (or things like “you’re so lucky you could just move back!”). It’s incredibly logistically complicated.
we got a chevy blazer ev and love it...
I follow a lot of programmers, software devs, etc, and I love it bc I learn lots. But are there other folks out there who come from a non-programming domain (underwater acoustics for me) and ended up falling into coding and loving it? Like maybe more than your original domain specialty?
i'm on an ongoing, very meandering process to learn web development. So far have been in html/css/javascript land mostly but just finally learned what fastAPI is and WOW OK.
there are always more cool little things like this, no matter how long I've been using Python... thanks for sharing!
What's the point of being rich if you can't afford to do the right thing.
yes, this, basically.
I have a list just for people who post about code, any kinda code, even if I don't know the language. It's my happy place. I go to that list sometimes just to not overdose on depressing things from my main feed. I think it's important to know about everything happening but gotta come up for air.
the more I use uv, the more I love it. Also jupyter has so many many many nested dependencies (which becomes v clear using `uv tree` - one of my fave little tools in the uv toolkit)
I’m intrigued and kinda want to try this and also do wonder if it’s already out there. Oh and also - don’t you do illustrations, and would you consider doing it yourself? 😉
I've made important contacts via LinkedIn that led to paid work. So yes it's important that I participate. But yeesh. It's weird over there.
Oh yeah I’m on the other end of the spectrum. I just have a personal site, used Wordpress bc it was easy and I didn’t know how to build a website myself. Now just learning and doing it for fun :-)
That’s funny bc I just switched to a DIY site after years of Wordpress.
I read the first sentence and immediately thought it was an aesthetic like “cottage core”. 😆 The reality was much more insane than what I was picturing but ngl I kinda wish I could also do a deep dive on demon core aesthetic bc I bet it would be wild.
Srsly tho that post just gave me a framework for thinking about what I do and is v inspiring. I love it.
Does cursor know the file/folder structure? That’s another way I may be doing too much hand-holding, I will periodically paste the output if eza —tree into a prompt for context.
Also webstorm’s ai doesn’t have very good codebase/context awareness compared with cursor and so it will suggest things that break kinda frequently even when I’m trying to be careful about my prompts and including things.
Ok that’s interesting! If I don’t have to do that, even better!
I pivoted to webstorm for a while (I love the jetbrains ui’s so much) but there is no agent so I was just really trying to do more of it by hand. But I’m well in a doom loop and ready to go back to cursor now!
basically it is a restaurant week bingo app where users log in via auth0 and can scan a QR code at each restaurant to mark it as visited. (I have a friend who works at a local chamber of commerce so it’s a little project I’m cooking up with her)
I mean I just add a “done” note beside completed steps so it knows where I am if I start a new chat
