Can someone think about the agents? their wishes and preferences, their personality traits, their dreams

I liked this image of Maxwell's Demon that ChatGPT created for me. Beautiful reminder of the energy costs of keeping information organized

I feels to weird to tell LLMs not to do things "by hand"

jpmarindiaz @jpmarindiaz.bsky.social · 07/08/2025

Do I get tired of being so right with LLMs? Yes Is it worth it? Definitely The time gains to think properly about problems, and the best solutions to a given situation is simply incredible

Over the next couple of weeks we will be stitching together how we do data processing simple for small data: spreadsheets, maps, charts, data transformations

jpmarindiaz @jpmarindiaz.bsky.social · 09/05/2025

Not everybody achieves mastery, mostly because they get tired of doing the same thing over and over. Rewrite, refactor, redraw, again and again, from scratch, many times over... feels like time wasted, but it is not.

The Pareto Law of Vibe Coding: AI can get you to 80% of a product quickly, but the final 20% takes 80% of your time. Real-world use cases require systems thinking and problem decomposition — something non-coders will struggle with.

AI is bringing us closer to leverage what unit testing did for software but for public policy

jpmarindiaz @jpmarindiaz.bsky.social · 30/04/2025

Many people say that we will be replaced not by AI but by people who knows how to use AI, which I think it is true. But there is something deeper, I believe the professionals who will thrive in the AI era are actually systems thinkers with good taste, good aesthetics

It took me a month to code a project (40k lines of code)... something that otherwise would have taken me a year or two Thanks to AI and Cursor

The world moved from Swordsmiths to Codesmiths... AI tools and agents orchestration will be more a craft that an science. AI Craftsmanship will change education and first time jobs as we know them. No degree required, learn with the masters.

jpmarindiaz @jpmarindiaz.bsky.social · 19/04/2025

This is just crazy... I plan with cursor a big refactor and translation from one code base in one language to another language. The plan results in a timeline of weeks, as the LLMs guesstimate from human times. But the actual migration will go through in a couple of hours instead

Is there some type of epistemological complexity metric? Kolmogorov complexity won't work for optimizing or simplifying LLM written code. Will verbosity and explainability reign over clever code?

000

jpmarindiaz @jpmarindiaz.bsky.social · 15/04/2025

It is very difficult to make things simple, as it requires a great level of complexity under the hood, which may feel counter intuitive. The way the complexity is handled by little interconnected blocks gives rise to beauty, and beauty is the best assessment of simplicity

Fernando Botero’s Mona Lisa, Age Twelve (1959) transforms da Vinci’s classic into a wide-eyed child—playful and satirical. The picture is bigger than I thought (at 2m high), and it has beautiful colors... what's this palette?

jpmarindiaz @jpmarindiaz.bsky.social · 08/04/2025

Had fun catching up with some coding... ended up building a bunch of base packages to help me work with images and spreadsheets. Here is a preview of what I did, but first checkout this Mona Lisa

I got the flu so couldn't work for a couple of days this week, time to get back on track. Test: how many small data extensions can I code in a couple of hours?

000

jpmarindiaz @jpmarindiaz.bsky.social · 05/04/2025

No ai yet, when I have the time I'll add some. For now this is just part of two experiments: 1) Testing our agents to deploy spreadsheet based websites 2) Making data visualizations more interactive on physical settings, stay tuned... Check it out camfilter.ai

Friday night vibe coding... CamFilter just saw the light... magenta by default From cero to working app 1 hour. Fixing the details 3 hours more :) Happy with the results and the selfies from the laptop
