Defying all odds, I made a second blog post! jt.lol/posts/simple... This one is about AI realizations at work, and how AI's lack of hesitation to try new methods opens up opportunities to leverage new abstractions.

Continuing my tradition (github.com/jamwt/hobo) (github.com/jamwt/robo) of building a blog engine every five years using my latest favorite tech (the 2005 python one has been lost to the sands of time), I just did it again. and I wrote up how it went. jt.lol/posts/buildi...

Really enjoyed this chat with @brianmm.dev of @clerk.com on building developer products. Especially when we got real about working on novel platforms that generate vendor lock-in concerns. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyaC...

Shockingly, Convex wasn't included in @t3.gg 's recent video on "one app on five different stacks." So I ported it! youtu.be/hW2IiPFFd_0

If you've ever been curious to know *a lot* about database isolation levels, and what is subtly broken about your database (even Postgres), @cowling.bsky.social , Tom Redman and I just made a pod about it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEfq...

Twenty five years in tech, and I find consistently the only part of it that I've given any shit about is the connections to humans. Tools and technologies which are ultimately only interesting in a mathematical/self-referential may may be neat and clever, but they're not very inspiring...
