Hey @cnbc did an article on us! Huge thanks to @microacquire as always for getting us over the finish line. cnbc.com/2023/10/16/how…

@flybayer Gitkraken, no contest

what's the best local git diff viewer?

@jaxmorphy @zeta_globin I’m too busy spinning apples

@zeta_globin just take a walk and draw on the whiteboard inside of your mind

once went out with a software engineer who put a whiteboard in his shower to think and would take 45 minute showers in there to try to solve dev tool problems

@bcherny claude code hasn't used that question ui in weeks unless I explicitly tell it to. What gives!

@juristr You forgot the most important part, no nextjs

Soo... Void = Vercel on top of Cloudflare??

@nathaniel_cole0 Genuinely curious how often this ai message is working

@dested Salvatore genuinely curious how your work tracks customer behavior just sent a quick message

Just went through a whole phone IVR to end up talking to an AI Agent. Unbelievable

@thekitze Lets fork vscode and give it all the features of webstorm + all the features of cursor + all the featuers of claude code and be done with it

the masculine urge to abandon everything and create the IDE of 2030

@AndrewSolender I think that Dear Sister and my weekend as a 28-year-old in chicago are the bookends of millennial culture/mainstream influence

i actually don't think i'm even being hyperbolic when i say my weekend as a 28-year-old in chicago is one of the important pieces of late millennial/early gen Z media ever made

@bradwestfall I agree w/ this 100%. And just like plastic toys every company will need to decide their tolerance level for cheap crap. Some things will be thin plastic, some will be thick plastic, some will be pleather, but fewer and fewer will be genuinely hand crafted. And maybe thats okay?

@dested What plastics did to manufacturing, LLMs are doing to software engineering. It's fast, it's cheap, it's more bridle, but a machine can make it cheap so we don't care about quality anymore. I call it plastic software

Pretty much my feelings on the state of things, and I am just as conflicted.

Gave GPT 5.4 in Vesence for Excel the decompiled Pokemon Red and it made me a playable demo of the overworld. Made with 100% Excel formulas.

I hate to admit it but I am officially on the opus 4.6 has degraded bandwagon. I hope its related to reasoning levels and setting it to high is enough of a fix. I hope its a harness bug.

Forking your browser history stack by middle clicking the back button is such an incredible feature. It was hard times before that

@sirjoeldean Me neither, never. I haven't had a hardcoded hallucinated id with an opus model in like 5 months. It scared the hell out of me. I am kind of suspecting it to be related to medium reasoning vs high.

@dested How did this happen ? I never face these issues when using the model

Just had opus 4.6 hallucinate a name and id from nothing. Haven't had that fear in a while.

@bradwestfall bower install jquery 🤣

@dested I wanted loaderData (React Router Framework), at first Cursor hallucinated Remix (forgivable), then Next, then Tanstack. If I let it keep going what are the changes of it guessing jQuery

@DavidKPiano "Who do you think you are?? Me???"

Sometimes I really dislike how LLMs were trained on your code

Turn your claude code opus 4.6 reasoning back to high. Go into debt if you have to.

@thekitze @jackfriks

@jackfriks enjoy these, it's gonna be a crazy week of using them

i'm acquiring soon: a sun lamp, standing desk and walking treadmill. moving out at end of month and first time i will have my own office. sub 10% body-fat, sub $100k MRR and fully optimal levels of inner peace, here we come

3 years ago. Such a profoundly different time for engineering, but a deeply similar time for startups. Ideas and execution are king. How you get there is different, outcomes are the same.
