Sometimes I wish I had someone stopping me in my tracks and telling me to use sequential thinking.

This timezone bug I'm working on is going to kill me tomorrow...or at least I _think_ it will.

It might kill me yesterday instead.

Unfortunately today I am both the intern and the interviewee 🙈

Instead of leet code challenges, interviews should be "take this app that our intern vibe coded yesterday and fix all the bugs in it"

There are two types of people who park in the back corner of a Costco parking lot:

- people concerned about scratching their BMW
- people trying to hide the fact that they’re shoveling in-n-out into their mouth before going in

Vibe coding an AI chatbot for vibe coding

Writing prompts for AI to write code that prompts AI to write prompts for AI to write code to write prompts that I can use to prompt an AI to review code that AI wrote.

The future is now.

Commands are composable

"/update-command new-command "This command should always run the /update-command after creating it, to analyze it for improvement opportunities""

Commands can proactively suggest improvements to themselves

"/update-command update-command"

Commands can update themselves

"/update-command update-command "This command should proactively suggest improvements to the user replacing repetitive functionality in the command with bash scripts where appropriate.""

Commands can update other commands

"/new-command update-command "This command should accept a command name and a prompt as an argument. It should try to update the command in
./.claude/commands<command>.md according to the instructions provided in the prompt."

Commands can create commands

"Create a custom command in ./.claude/commands/ that generates new custom commands. The command should create a markdown file in the current project's
.claude/commands directory (creating the directory if needed), not in the user's home directory."

Claude code is the machine that builds the machine

AI hype or AI addiction? 😅

AI is scary because it’s a reflection of ourselves

Why vibe code when you can just vibe product manage?

Starting to think that “agentic code assistant” isn’t the right product to build anymore.

It’s almost good enough to be essentially a natural language -> code compiler.

The git repo shouldn’t store the code, it should store the prompt that generates the code.

Claude Code with Claude 4 is insanely good.
