bdougie @bizza.pizza · 03/09/2026I swapped Claude for open weights in my agent heist. Claude read the ROM to explain why the move would not work. Qwen walked over and tried the handle.

bdougie @bizza.pizza · 10/06/2026Claude code shared Fable is storing for sessions for 30 days because it’s useful for understand the safety of the model. My suggestion is you should save your sessions too. If you are not today, put it on paper.

bdougie @bizza.pizza · 20/05/2026I tried training a model instead of writing a skill and have some honest results. briandouglas.me/posts/2026/0...briandouglas.meI Trained a Model Instead of Writing a SkillSkills are a great way to teach an agent a pattern. I got curious whether the agent could just learn the pattern, so I tried training a model while also figuring out what RL actually is. 2163
