Bryan Bryce – e/tacos

Codex likes the word, “slice” when planning for creating the right amount of work at a time for a coding agent. I’m building a Flutter app from a reference iOS app (basically copy-paste) and the size of the chunk of work you take on at a time make s a huge difference for results.

@bcardarella I moved to Elixir releases on Hetzner, I'm running like 12 apps on one $30 box (shut up I know I don't have traffic ok?)

Once, again, fuck fly.io

@jasonfried I like you, but this is cope. I've already seen it happening. Employees at my client's business prompt prototypes in Replit of the tools they want to automate their workflows and I take those and build into real software. It happens fast too.

A bespoke software revolution? I don't buy it. It'll exist. It already exists. Small consultants and big consulting firms have made custom software for years. It almost always sucks. It’s bloated, confusing, and because the client pays, it’s built wrong in all the ways. Who’s excited about bespoke software? Software makers! Of course they're excited about building bespoke software — that's what they do. X is full of them. Your feed is full of people who love making software talking about making software. Of course they’re excited about the revolution. Echo, echo, echo... Most people don’t like computers. Nobody in tech wants to say that out loud. People tolerate computers. They use them because they have to. Given the choice, most would rather not think about them at all. So when someone suggests that AI means everyone will build their own custom tools, ask who "everyone" is. The three-person accounting firm drowning in client paperwork? They want the paperwork gone, not a new system to maintain. The regional logistics company with 40 trucks? They want the routes optimized, not Joe spouting off about this new system he’s been messing around with. The law firm billing 70-hour weeks? They want leverage on their time, not a software project to design. They don’t hate technology. But building and maintaining their own critical systems isn’t their wheelhouse, regardless of how much faster and easier it’s become. It's another job on top of the job. Will these people use AI? Absolutely, for all sorts of things. Will some outliers go deep and build real custom systems? Sure, but they're almost always people who already had some pull toward software. The curiosity was already there. They were dabblers before. Giving everyone access to software building tools doesn't mean everyone becomes a builder. A powerful excavator doesn't turn a homeowner into a contractor. Most people just want the hole dug by someone else. They don’t want the responsibility either.

@jbillinson "...he said while posting on X"

Deeply humiliating to realize how much this overpriced chunk of plastic has improved my quality of life in just a week.

@bcardarella anthropic too 🤣

@BryanJBryce I've been leveraging my ability to without sleep

claude code is pretty trash

@netflix I bet someone makes a short joke

It takes one to roast one. The Roast of Kevin Hart hosted by Shane Gillis airs LIVE only on Netflix May 10. Tickets on sale Thursday, March 26 at 10am PT at netflixisajokefest.com

@bcardarella Manual QA is underrated for AI 😂 I've been leveraging my clients' employees to do this for me

@BryanJBryce I know, I'm doing AI coding 100% of the time but I am having to quality check everything over and over. Leaving a fuck load of tags in local git repos is just shit

@problogger Add the Book of Mormon, Pearl of Great Price and Doctrine & Covenants, watch usage soar :D

Wow - have already had 300 people visit the bible tracker. Most requested feature is ability to sign in with an account on more than one browser/device - so I took a crash course in Supabase and its now a feature! Interested to hear how people go with signing up if you have a sec

@bcardarella It's vibed

@BryanJBryce It's like the Anthropic team just releases shit without testing

@Jchammond_ Who is Claude?

Me: Make the changes to that file again Claude: They were discarded Me: I know, I did that to fix conflicts. Make them again Claude: I can confirm those changes are not there, but the other ones are Me: I KNOW. Make the changes again!

this guy has 29 models on huggingface at page 2 ranking. no lab behind him. no sponsorship. $2,000 from his own pocket on GPU rentals. he compressed GLM-4.7 to run on a MacBook and quantized Nemotron Super the week it dropped. all public. all free. nvidia is a trillion dollar company with hundreds of teams but they are not the ones quantizing models middle of the night and pushing them out before sunrise. if nvidia stopped tomorrow their employees stop working. people like @0xSero would not. that is the difference between a paycheck and a mission. @NVIDIAAI you talk about making AI accessible. the people actually doing it are right here. 29 models deep burning their own compute with no ask except more hardware to keep going. you do not need to build another program. just look at who is already building for you. one GPU to this man would produce more public value than a hundred internal sprints. i am not asking for charity. i am asking you to invest in someone who already proved it.

@Pauline_Cx Mansplain bait

My goal this month is to migrate from ChatGPT to Claude. Is it complicated to transfer memory?

Guys finding out being a dad is the best thing ever is the best thing on the internet

@davemorin Just search the SQLite db

How is it 2026 and search still does not work in iMessage?

@Jchammond_ Get to $200 MMR to find a second account

@BryanJBryce Ah I suppose you’re right Fast mode will be missed

Yo what are we going to do when this 2x rate limit ends in the Codex app?

@herrmanndigital Read your timeline

How do you all keep up with all the AI shit? Like it's insane.

@madsf88 stripe

who's building the bank for ai agents?

@sean_moriarity I’m much meaner to Claude because it always lied to me

I've basically fully switched from Claude Code -> Codex with GPT 5.4. It's been great, but for some reason I'm much meaner to GPT 5.4 than I am to Claude
