iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

I don't know what the next AI dev hype will be, but for right now skills are hitting the sweet spot for me in terms of getting LLMs to do what I want without wildly hallucinating.

The @flutterdevofficial.bsky.social dev toolchain is actually pretty dope. Updating, doctor, publishing and testing all from the same CLI. Also just works with VSCode/Cursor and doesn't make me download a flutter specific IDE that I'd never use.

Paul Asjes @asjes.dev · 08/10/2025

It's incredible how archaic IDEs without AI now feel. Doing a project in iOS and I've actually switched to using cursor for actual code writing and only using xcode to build and test.

our april fools joke this year was a "Text to Bark" service which would translate human text into dog language and the amount of emails we get asking for API access is truly mind boggling

Anyone else finding GPT5 to be really slow for coding? I've gone back to Claude because I'm tired of it taking 10+ seconds to read a file.

The not so glamorous part of releasing a new major version of SDKs is all the example code you have to update

The worst part of working with npm packages is trying to load a local version to test your package without having to publish. What works in one environment just breaks in another.

Son has been gloating a lot to little brother, like "haha I have more than you". Told him the next time he does it I'll take what he has and give it to his brother. Last night: "haha I have more broccoli than you" *proceeds to put his broccoli on brother's plate* now listen here you little shit

Some personal news, today is my last day at @workos.bsky.social. I’m truly grateful to @grinich.bsky.social and the team for making my time there so positive and fulfilling. The people and product are fantastic and I'm going to miss both. I start a new gig on Monday, which I’ll talk more about soon!
