詩人でマルチモーダル文化人類学者のふくだぺろ氏の単著『平等主義暴力』のWebサイト/アプリをつくりました 装丁家や版元の編集者の方々の仕事ぶりにも感激しながら、チャラく短命なWebなりに何ができるんだろうって考えながらつくりました

Music Knowledge Graph — I created an interactive web app that helps users explore music data from MusicBrainz through a visual network of artists, collaborators, albums and songs.

This is not the best dendrogram but I'm glad we're starting to create complex diagrams of the complex systems we're embedded in & I hope that the ability to make & read them that AI enables leads to more nuanced conversations rather than the slop we've had for the last 30 years.

The British Government is a complicated beast. Dozens of departments, hundreds of public bodies, more corporations than one can count... Such is its complexity that there isn't an org chart for it. Well, there wasn't... Introducing ⚙️Machinery of Government⚙️

New project: I dove into @CMHC_ca housing starts data and built an interactive dashboard that visualizes provincial trends across major shocks — from 90s policy cutbacks to 2008, the 2017/18 slowdown, and the COVID surge. #dataviz #dashboard #Canada

Introducing Simile. Simulating human behavior is one of the most consequential and technically difficult problems of our time. We raised $100M from Index, Hanabi, A* BCV, @karpathy @drfeifei @adamdangelo @rauchg @scottbelsky among others.

software is still about thinking
software has always been about taking ambiguous human needs and crystallizing them into precise, interlocking systems. the craft is in the breakdown: which abstractions to create, where boundaries should live, how pieces communicate.
coding with ai today creates a new trap: the illusion of speed without structure. you can generate code fast, but without clear system architecture – the real boundaries, the actual invariants, the core abstractions – you end up with a pile that works until it doesn't. it's slop because there's no coherent mental model underneath.
ai doesn't replace systems thinking – it amplifies the cost of not doing it. if you don't know what you want structurally, ai fills gaps with whatever pattern it's seen most. you get generic solutions to specific problems. coupled code where you needed clean boundaries. three different ways of doing the same thing because you never specified the one way.
as Cursor handles longer tasks, the gap between "vaguely right direction" and "precisely understood system" compounds exponentially. when agents execute 100 steps instead of 10, your role becomes more important, not less.
the skill shifts from "writing every line" to "holding the system in your head and communicating its essence":
- define boundaries – what are the core abstractions? what should this component know? where does state live?
- specify invariants – what must always be true? what are the constants and defaults that make the system work?
- guide decomposition – how should this break down? what's the natural structure? what's stable vs likely to change?
- maintain coherence – as ai generates more code, you ensure it fits the mental model, follows patterns, respects boundaries.
this is what great architects and designers do: they don't write every line, but they hold the system design and guide toward coherence. agents are just very fast, very literal team members.
the danger is skipping the thinking because ai makes it feel optional. people prompt their way into codebases they don't understand. can't debug because they never designed it. can't extend because there's no structure, just accumulated features.
people who think deeply about systems can now move 100x faster. you spend time on the hard problem – understanding what you're building and why – and ai handles mechanical translation. you're not bogged down in syntax, so you stay in the architectural layer longer.
the future isn't "ai replaces programmers" or "everyone can code now." it's "people who think clearly about systems build incredibly fast, and people who don't generate slop at scale."
the skill becomes: holding complexity, breaking it down cleanly, communicating structure precisely. less syntax, more systems. less implementation, more architecture. less writing code, more designing coherence.
humans are great at seeing patterns, understanding tradeoffs, making judgment calls about how things should fit together.
ai can't save you from unclear thinking – it just makes unclear thinking run faster.
