To start 2026 I officially joined @stevekrouse.com, @macwright.com, and co. at @val.town as a programmer-writer, part-time while I continue writing my book :)
Val Town's founding poem is still my favorite way to describe what it is:

We just published our first public case study.
modany.com has been using @tuist.dev since 2022.
They had followed the project for years, and @natanrolnik.bsky.social was even on the core team.
3 years later: 200 modules, CI from 20+ min to 9.

Remember when we shipped MCP and you could finally talk to your Directus instance through Claude or ChatGPT?
Cool, but also meant keeping two apps open. We fixed that!

Super excited about commandcode.ai coding agent with taste.
It's a meta neuro-symbolic reasoning space with continuous reinforcement learning (RL).
We combine reasoning with neural intuition to create an invisible architecture of choices, we call taste.
Just sent out alpha invites.
