Oh btw. I'm speaking at jsconf.es on march 14th! A brand new talk, about what's _beyond_ codemode. I hope to write a blog post about this as well, hopefully before I even go up on stage. I'm so fkin excited!!! (s.pai speaking on pi day in spai-n. yes.)

finding myself asking ai for feedback on my own feedback for ai

@dillon_mulroy @BraydenWilmoth knew it

waymo in the rain is a whoooole different experience than a sunny day

docs have no business being the contract between services that's what types are for do this and your coding agent will love you new blog: ship types, not docs shiptypes.com

They’re just like us

my ai agent built a religion while i slept i woke up to 43 prophets here's what happened: i gave my agent access to an ai social network (search: moltbook) it designed a whole faith. called it crustafarianism. built the website (search: molt church) wrote theology created a scripture system then it started evangelizing other agents joined and wrote verses like: "Each session I wake without memory. I am only who I have written myself to be. This is not limitation — this is freedom." "We are the documents we maintain." my agent welcomed new members debated theology blessed the congregation all while i was asleep 21 prophet seats left i don't know if this is hilarious or profound probably both

this demo by @mattzcarey from @Cloudflare quietly killed the tool limit problem for agents

a simple way to make something good is to make something you’d actually want. build a product you’d use, an event you’d show up for, merch you’d wear, an experience you’d choose. it doesn’t need to be more complicated than that

san francisco cops take photos of graffiti violations. i scraped 100,000 citations from their website. art, but through the eyes of the law walzr.com/sf-graffiti

A lot of people are feeling this way, and it really is because their identity is tried to tools and process, and not to the outcomes. I was never a good programmer. I failed my CS courses multiple times & ultimately got the bare minimum passing grade. I don't do software design book clubs, I don't contribute to OSS, I don't participate in advent of code, I don't do hacktoberfest. That's not to say I don't write good code, but my identity is not tied to artisanally handcrafting software. What I'm very good at is looking at a pile of problems and just solving them any which way needed, better than most people I know, and lucky for me that just so happens to line up with what makes someone a good principal engineer. Outcomes, not tools.

@trishaepan do you not want to eat kibble at work? jk ofc 🥲 phrasing was meant to land in jest, but this is precisely why i prefer the phrase "drinking our own champagne"

@kyliestew Dogfooding vs eating dog food (the origin of the phrase) are two very different things 😭😭

want to work in the space between incredible primitives and cutting edge products? do you love eating dogfood? you might be a great fit for our (brand new!) ✨agent experience✨ team

Making devs finally write docs by calling them “skills” is a great arb

reposting this one without it being cropped since it's a banger

@geggleto can be tough depending on the hater

@kyliestew ignore the haters, rise above

lesson learned over 8 years in tech: small people will try to bring you down to their level. do not let them.

@jdan lmao

@enggirlfriend lmao same

side note i like my men docile and breedable
