amadeus

i’ve been called many things

@rogerclark obvi

worked on this for the past few months with the most godlike team of all time. hmu if you want to check it out

@zorkian Your first mistake was using copilot 🤭

It appears that I cannot pay Github for more Copilot credits. I told it to spend up to $200 of additional usage - it got to $60.51 and said "you've hit your additional usage limit." And there's no higher tier I can upgrade a personal account to. Fascinating revenue model, tbh.

@alistaiir @vuefes 👀 i def want to, but that timing might be tricky

@amadeus @vuefes come

I'm really excited to be speaking at @vuefes in Tokyo this October! vuefes.jp/2026/speaker/a…

@almonk logical place to be when in LA

Venice Beach haze this am

@ThePrimeagen we just in it for the love of the game

This actually makes me sad. Programming is such a fun thing to do in of itself. The completion of the thing task is the ultimate goal, but the road to get there is enjoyable! Even as i investigate loops and think deeply about how to deploy AI in a real manner that produces real and good code I still make time for 45 minutes to 3 hours a day trad programming. But regardless of AI being perfect or not, being able to produce quality work or not is not even part of the argument. I just like programming and I think that loving the craft of building the thing itself will ultimately make the thing you are building better. Because you care deeper about it. Its not about a pretty dress & lipstick you put on it, but the deep thought care you put in to the things no one sees or perhaps its so good they just don't notice. I think that is where the best software is made.

@_heyglassy oh hey! thanks for the shoutout! 🙏

You thought I forgot engineering blogs you should read this week? I would never forget. OK I almost forgot. Engineering blogs you should read this week - 7/5 ON RENDERING DIFFS by @amadeus - pierre.computer/writing/on-ren…

ok real talk, hmx puppy's absolutely fuck.

@thdxr very keen to try it, but this does give me pause

if you want to help beta test OpenCode 2.0 v2.opencode.ai - data in separate db which we might wipe - stuff will be broken - use /report to send us issues - v1 plugins won't work, v2 api not final there is a built in skill that you can ask for basically anything

@thdxr this is the way

i asked james to help us fix our color tokens in our themes and now he's examining how light hits your eyes and plotting it mathematically i just meant like, we need to be a bit more organized

@mitchellh @almonk

@almonk Stop by and say hello

Since I left my job at @poolsideai a couple months back I’ve been working on a new thing with some friends. Next week we have our first onsite in LA. Looking forward to sharing more soon.

@alistaiir @pierrecomputer @fat u no wat to do

@amadeus @pierrecomputer in

This is a solved problem, we have it under control. Don't worry about it

@alistaiir @pierrecomputer gotta dj another party first

@pierrecomputer can I get a Pierre suit

@kenwheeler fuuu

@amadeus yeah it was insane, nearly 7 figs

have any of you guys seen this new scam where the whitest dude alive calls and is like “hi this is ritchie anderson from google account security” but it’s clearly bullshit and they get VERY upset when you call them on it

@kenwheeler oh man, sorry to hear that, fucking sucks

@amadeus dude my one buddy got fuckin cleaned out by the coinbase one

i had one of those surrounding a coinbase scam, i knew it immediately, but strung them along for a bit to waste their time. at one point they asked me how much i had in my coinbase account, and i just made up a number like 50k or something and a minute later they just hung up. wasn't a big enough honeypot i guess

there’s very clearly a room of bros somewhere trying to run scams like in the beekeeper

because they wanted to use @pierre/diffs

This is such a great example of one of the major problems I have with AI written code (not the submitter of the issue or the issue itself, but the repro example/fix). AI loves writing infinitely defensible code (which is not good code) instead of trying to defend against the broken state even occurring in the first place. github.com/pierrecomputer… This is why you should always be reviewing AI written code (assuming you care about the quality of what you're building) and investing in fixing things correctly.

the boi hittin with another banger

@itseieio @fat oh yeah, you totally could! would just probably need to do some internal scroll rebasing that's not visible to the user to paginate on to account for the obscene height

@amadeus @fat ah ty! the post makes me want to go back to everyuuid and figure out how to do it with native scrolling somehow lol

Finally got @amadeus to write about what goes into making our diffs so special. A love letter to FE development: web workers, WASM, novel virtualization and memory management techniques, and more. Fun read if you're a perf geek and hate blanking. pierre.computer/writing/on-ren…
