I was about to go afk for lunch. But it felt 'wasteful' to not let ai do some programming for me while I was away.

I wasn't even coding. But now - during lunch - 'I' am.

Weird feeling.

The system was literally built for factory workers during the industrial revolution. It was never meant for knowledge work. Having said that: working 'whenever you feel like it' isnt the answer either.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel.

Morning devs,
I want to learn more on how I can use evals to evaluate how different prompts and LLMs perform for different parts of an agentic system. What youtube videos / blogs do you recommend?

I am in an endless loop of making coffee, putting my sweater off, putting my sweater back on and making coffee again.

Claude Sonnet 4.5 is so good for semi structured vibecoding. Big leap forward.

Haha, wat goed

Ok not gonna lie: Perplexity's Discover feed featuring news articles generated from aggregated sources is quite cool.

In fact: this might be exactly what the world needs in this era of misinformation and ai slop.
