Project Indigo seems to be gearing up for monetization based on their recent survey. If they add a monthly fee to the “pro” button, I’ll be devastated 😔

What is the Model Context Protocol (MCP)? MCP aims to standardize AI tool integration, potentially simplifying development and enabling more capable AI assistants. Current adoption is limited.

I'm drowning in MCP content, but a lot of it doesn't have the full story on what MCP actually fixes. 🤷‍♀️

This is my cheeky attempt to remedy that—a mental model for devs, so you can figure out for yourself if it's garbage or the future.

Content Inspiration Templates use 21st.dev components, your design tokens, and context from your page to generate beautiful new on-brand interactive content. Drag and drop a template into place, and Builder's AI will do the rest!

What is an AI Agent? AI agents use models, loops, memory, and tools to automate complex tasks. Learn how they work, their evolution, and their practical uses and limitations.

Ever feel like you've heard the word "agent" so many times that it ceased to mean anything?

Hard same.

So, I dug up some history and technical deets about AI agents to contextualize the hype.

(🙈Spoiler: it's not really the LLMs blocking progress.)

Jellyfin is nice and the community and app developers are alive and well 💖💙

I use a Boox Palma and it makes reading v comfy — I like that it supports libraries other than Kindle and I can play music

A screenshot from my Bloom Filters blog post, showing a visualisation of the bits inside a bloom filter after the words "loved" and "your" have been added. There is also a code sample visible that reads: let bf = new CountingBloomFilter(); bf.add("loved"); bf.add("your"); bf.remove("response"); bf.contains("loved"); // false

A screenshot from my Queueing blog post. A list of goals can be seen that says: - Add 15 requests to each queue. - Add 10 priority requests to each queue. - Drop 15 requests. - Drop 10 priority requests. Below this task list can be seen a visualisation of 4 different queues.

A screenshot of my Turing Machines blog post. A Turing Machine running the first program seen in Alan Turing's 1936 paper can be seen, it prints alternative 0s and 1s to the tape.

Hi 👋 I'm Sam, I create interactive visualisations about programming.

I also appeared on 2 podcasts:

The struggle is real.

Off to jail with the grinch?

Only wasteful if you play the One Stop Fun Shop games and not the mainline Pajama Sam, Spy Fox, Freddy Fish

Wow that is truly gorgeous

Say it louderrrr

I once had to make a few print projects in Figma…you really feel it then.

I heard this was a lot of people’s fave game from this year

This would fix my posture 100%. I read like a wood’s witch

It’s that time of year where I make tea just to keep my hands warm
