github copilot is the perfect tool for when you've run out of tokens in claude code
oh ok, urls are truncated...
It's a JSON Schema provider for Faker.
It generates fake data conforming to the schema you pass it.
We have 1800+ unit and PBT tests (many of them pre-dating Claude) so I'm hoping it's reasonably sound, although it is a complex domain of course.
I got pretty far with it by hand, I didn't get stuck so much as ran out of energy/time/got side-tracked
it had been languishing for the last 5 years, sort of 85% done and thus unusable.
(I also tried out GPT-5.4 for code review on this and found it... good actually)
So I caved and got a Claude subscription...
It's been a manic 2 week binge of finishing off old abandoned side-projects, and starting new ones
Probably the most potentially useful one to see the light of day so far is: pypi.org/project/fake...
It's a provider for joke2k's Faker fake data lib.
...the docs framework itself?
keen to see more!

Q: What encoding are you using?

pretty sure this is motivated by the same new use case...

ok I paste that into a `.vscode/mcp.json` and decide whether to gitignore it or not
works fine
whinge over I guess
Yep: circleci.com/product/mcp/...
I'm already kind of stumped by the VS Code install instructions, partly VS Code's fault
(...AWS somehow managed to craft "one-click install" links for their MCPs awslabs.github.io/mcp/servers/... possibly some undocumented hack)
imagine if the @circleci.com CLI could actually fetch details of your remote workflow runs (like GH actions `gh run list` does)
I find myself using the latter all the time for quick agentic help
I guess there's probably a heavyweight MCP server somewhere that I'm supposed to install and run
Essential claude code settings.json...
```
"spinnerVerbs": {
"mode": "replace",
"verbs": ["Thinking", "Working"]
}
```
(I don't know why it irritated me so much to see the agent "Frobulating..." etc)
another day... another yak to vibe-shave...
We are at a weird point where people feel insecure about their skills due to the rise of AI, so the new flex is how much you are overusing AI.
At the end of the day, the question is how much more money you are making or saving by using AI, not how much youβre paying Anthropic for Claude Code tokens

Nolan is so overrated

all good
VS Code Copilot chat has so many bugs you can tell they're definitely 'dogfooding' it...
Turns out this as due to broken output interleaving in the AWS CDK cli...
The deploy was waiting for a confirmation prompt from me that was never displayed. Brilliant.
CloudFormation has been deploying my RDS instance for so long I feel like maybe someone at the data centre has had to nip out and buy a new server to run it...
If you use smaller windows when recording the end result video is more legible - recording a smaller area is a bit like zooming in
