I'm getting real tired of reading your AI-generated garbage.
An issue I've run into a few times with the #go `net/url` package is that `url.Values{}` is a map so `Values.Encode()` sorts the params before encoding. Some api's expect a specific order and and sorting breaks those API calls. The fix is to manually encode the values but I wish I didn't have to.

When we said build an app with alternative inputs, @leonnoel.com said SAY LESS.

See what he and @ericaxtech.bsky.app built together: codetv.link/wdc/s2e10
Well supposedly they left at 6 in the morning.
For business that are primarily software companies you still need people who can do the job in absence of AI. Agents and LLMs are here to stay, but vibe coding is only good for small projects and throwaway prototypes.
I’m not anti-ai, but I am a realist. I hope AI gets to a point where software can be seen as a commodity and to some extent it is. For small projects used by an individual it’s great! The flip side is that it falls apart at scale, like most technology.
Its been a solid month for music, we got some dope drops from Clipse, JID, and Gibbs. A lot of things made it into rotation in the last 30 days.
A couple of things that Adam does phenomenally are:

1. Crafting succinct and quotable phrases for complex ideas.
2. Linking ideas from any medium or domain to his personal and professional philosophy.

I appreciate his way of thinking and have learned a lot from him sharing publicly.
I actually hate the #reddit error page. Telling the users they did something wrong when there is a 5xx error is a pretty poor user experience. Don't blame the user for your mistakes...

I’m shaking in my boots that I won’t need to take off!
It can be so confident in a made up answer…
Boo boo boo boo boo boom! Westside Gunn’s adlibs are GOATed.
One thing I'm struggling with using AI agents is managing virtual environments. I use them for most of projects but agents don't cooperate well with venvs. I tried defining `flox activate` or `mise use` in the prompt, but that has been finicky at best.

Anyone have things that work for them?
I may try to make it out to this!

This was a really good episode!
Dope! I'm a fan of your Zines!
This is succinct and well written. As backend engineers we are now designing APIs for humans, software, and agents. Different concerns for different clients.
For years, we've designed APIs for maximum discoverability. The more features a developer can find, the better.

In an agentic world, that entire philosophy is a liability. The best API for an agent is the one it can't see.

Even more on designing products for agents: www.jlowin.dev/blog/curatio...

If we retired builds a few times it worked fine as the issue was intermittent. That said, if we needed to do emergency fix or a rollback it would have increased our response time. Ultimately it was fine and we had limited impact.
