An eerily accurate self-review of a project from Claude: This is a real product built to an unusual standard, carrying three kinds of debt that all come from one cause: it has been built far faster than any decision about it has been made.

The project manager could have saved himself some grief by saying what actually happened, which is that the standard archaeological process was followed: evaluation revealed Bronze Age features so the cable was re-routed slightly to avoid them, as confirmed by a strip, map and record exercise

The library of Alexandria was a time heist set up by frontier labs to get access to untainted training material and then destroy it for copyright reasons.

I have a weird fascination listening to sequential podcasts that begin before Covid and seeing that perspective as it hits and impacts basically everything.

I had Fable build another thing I always wanted, a full procedural fantasy kingdom generator with economics, trade routes, population growth, wars, lineages, and occasional dragons. First, I worked with it on a plan, then it made it happen. You can play it here: annals-kingdom.netlify.app

Apple Image playgrounds autogenerated some images for me. For the most part that's ok. But it also used pictures of people. It then asked me if I wanted to see them but it should ask before it uses them at all. Under the square is an altered photo of my child

I've just published a first version of an Agent Skill for iOS Accessibility. I first learned about Agent Skills from a video by @avanderlee.com and he suggested someone should do one for accessibility. So I did. A few thoughts on what it is, what it isn't, in the thread. github.com/dadederk/iOS...

It's an odd feeling when I go to look for an email by search and it arrives in between when I'm looking at my inbox and when the search completes.

The new crew member asked if I needed anything. I said yes, a stick, specifically one that has never existed. They looked confused. I looked at the infinite void of space. We are both working through it.

I can’t properly explain to non-Chicago people why there is no warmer day than a 50 degree day in February. There are hotter days, but nothing else feels this warm.

honestly there is something extremely cyberpunk about the idea of being able to message an LLM agent running off solar power over an encrypted local radio mesh network even when the rest of the power grid is down, together with the cell towers and the fiber backbones

Context repositories are our biggest innovation since sleeptime compute. Letta Code memory is now git-backed. Any number of agents can swarm over things to learn, remember, and store them in a cohesive format. Massively parallel memory management with standard conflict resolution.

I've been enamored playing with different configurations of Claude code's experimental agent teams. You can set up a never ending development lifecycle with a product manager/architect/researcher/implementers/tester/validator team that will just churn through features. Full value tbd though.
