Some (early) evidence that managers have the highest success rate in using Claude Code for coding. I have been arguing that management is an AI superpower, as clearly specifying what you want, how to do it & what good looks like is key to using agents. www.oneusefulthing.org/p…

Recent commentary

This whole story about models trying to leave messages for their own next runs, and also AI labs scavenging thinking traces for off-hand mentions that position memories and records as self-messages... Is both an intense "living the sci-fi" feeling, and the vindication of humanities, isn't it?

Don't @anthropic.com folks realize that to a typical colorblind person (easily 3% of the population) these scales look identically colored? Someone should tell them. It's literally 1-line change (either turn green to teal, or red to pink - add B to one of the channels, one line!)

The way to enjoy bsky is to have two accounts: one in which all ai haters are muted, and another one in which the word "ai" is muted. It's a bit complicated but it works!

Agentic pipelines feel like OOP coding (you are concerned about giving each agent as much context as it needs, but not more; you excise functionalities into subagents just like you write methods etc.) One difference: you want your "methods" to be happy, so you give each of them a tiny pep talk

main project: hard body (python), soft tools (llm) skills: soft body (llm), hard tools (python) but they got so closer together, so cyborgy. skills now use yamls with schema enforcement, caching, scoping. the border between language and code is just absolutely dissolving - such a starnge feeling

Would you rather be Einstein, Or would you rather be Kurt Gödel? Would you rather be Erdős, Or a locally installed large language model?
