Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 17hIf I had a nickel for interactions with professional clowns today I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice 010
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 01/10/2026I hate it as much as you do, but we need to all get over ourselves and admit that AI music has taken off, culturally, and it’s because of Charlie Kirk 040
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 30/09/2026Every “we need to rewrite this golang binary to rust” or “typescript to rust” project would go smoother if it were .NET 110
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 30/09/2026Each attribute is true of .NET too, but with the addition of a faster compiler and inner dev loop before you spin off the self-contained, optimized binary 130
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 30/09/2026Can someone please explain to me the particular brainrot people seem to have about porting code to Rust when .NET is just right there for you? 770

Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 29/09/2026See though, there’s gotta be at least one marriage a flying car would fix 2170
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 29/09/2026Can’t wait to see who prompt injects the new america.gov site and gets it to do funny and/or terrible thingsamerica.govAmerica.govFind answers from official government sources and clear next steps for the services you need with America.gov. 210
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 29/09/2026One of my greater achievements of my Microsoft stint was planning my vacation a day longer to avoid a BillG meeting. He used to be able to call special meetings with people at the company and he did for us (languages) because he was super into Rust. Was 2017 or so 020
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 28/09/2026Out of all of them, cyber threats actually do freak me out because, though actionable, they are still very much computers doing computer shit with each other and can cause a lot of harm. OAI-HF is a canary in the coal mine to fucking shore some shit up 020
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 28/09/2026This is a great post that put into words many of the things I feel regarding AI Safety 150
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 28/09/2026Core dumps and profiles galore for a few years, shit rules 010
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 28/09/2026Yeah I mean, both companies combined is like 400k human beings so there’s crimes and bad stuff. Every year the mandatory training is because some guy did something bad or bribed the government or whatever. But the AI leadership here isn’t wrapped up in this bad stuff; OAI/A\ absolutely are 010
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 28/09/2026But at some point you have to take a moral stance on human rights. Claude doesn’t bothsides the “issues” of Black people being able to vote or Jews being allowed to worship in peace. That these are older and “settled” concerns of policy is just a weak position to take 020
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 28/09/2026I like to think I understand the desire here, and broadly speaking across any issue involving active policy work it’s good to try and explain the full context around it. We do live in an era of a punitive US Gov and a populace who asks AI who to vote for, so I also understand avoiding liability too 120
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 28/09/2026FWIW it was always slow and just such a token burner, there’s just no way something like that gets mass enterprise adoption for most work 020
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 28/09/2026Why doesn’t anybody learn that you never go into the fourth quarter against Bo Nix with a lead? Go Broncos looooooooooolll 010
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 28/09/2026Naturally none of that matters for individual usage or hobbyist stuff, you should string together whatever you like in your spare time, as I do 000
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 28/09/2026Many Microsoft products are good! More people should use .NET, any Azure service based on open standards, and Copilot. There’s adults running the show there and every “don’t you dare mess with my data” guarantee under the sun. The same cannot be said for the streamer guys running OpenCode 100
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 27/09/2026And it’s not like the median claude code user, some dev at a bank who is told to use it, is gonna start meaningfully impacting the token economy by switching to grok on account of “woke” 150
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 27/09/2026Yeah I mean you’re gonna catch shit either way, might as well stand on the right side of the issue 140
Reposted by Phillip CarterAlex Blechman @alexblechman.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Data centers promise jobs but hire few people That's why I propose a law that every data center must hire 1,000 Priests of Data to worship the computers, pray to the servers, light candles, etc. The priests will boost the local economy and fill the air with the sweet sound of their Gregorian chants 46633140
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 27/09/2026Confusingly (Microsoft), was this the GitHub Copilot App or the Microsoft one? The former has filesystem access, latest models (assuming an admin didn’t roflstomp you), bunch more legitimately cool stuff 130
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 27/09/2026I also think Google has sufficiently outgrown whatever bad shit they’re into. Very deeply professionally corporate organization. OAI and A\ are still probably quite rooted strongly in their Weird Shit though 010
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 27/09/2026FWIW I would not yet use MAI models for coding. They’re extremely early in the game having trained from scratch on responsively licensed data and are a previous-generation tier family. But a year from now things will probably look different 0172
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 27/09/2026Microsoft AI! And perhaps surprisingly, home of a better image mode than gemini microsoft.ai/models/mai-i...microsoft.aiMAI-Image-2.6 | Microsoft AI 290
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 27/09/2026I do too, but I believe he’s also getting paid out on the backend through the same group, sex or not 180
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 27/09/2026Guess what enterprise-supported stack also supports Kimi! And also BYOK for these models, with the added benefit of actually handling your source e code responsibly 060
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 27/09/2026Also I guess shout out to all the extremely normal fuckin Anthropic and OpenAI employees who spend all day wracking their brains against how to launch a secure cloud platform (like me, lolsob lmao) instead of watching elezier yudkowsky do disgusting things with someone else’s body 2844
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 27/09/2026I guarantee you that Satya and Sundar aren’t hosting aella gangbangs to rope in young 20-something smart men named Jacob Coxon into publicly quitting their jobs to push forward a religious narrative 5763
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 27/09/2026I do say this non-jokingly: If you want to use AI tools built by serious people are aren’t in sex cults, Copilot and the emerging MAI family of models is decidedly none of that mess 111177
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 27/09/2026You can fuck around in the gym on back day and hit all these cable machines, rowing machines, some dumbbell rows, etc Or just do two hard hard sets of AMRAP pullups and heavy fuckin deadlifts 051
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 27/09/2026Nobody talks about the burden that comes either being a poster. We hold up civilization 040
Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 26/09/2026The S in sandbox stands for “Suck my dick” - SOTA LLM with one spicy prompt 000

Phillip Carter @phillipcarter.dev · 26/09/2026I think most people don’t want things out of software, they just want other things in life 130
