PSA: SF Ruby is hosting an AI hackathon… and I’ll be there too! Rails has always been the go-to framework for solo developers. So here’s the big question: *exactly* how much further can we take Ruby specifically with LLMs? Let’s find out!

(i say this in a slightly disappointed tone because I don’t really like tdd)

claude code is very very bad at writing tests and will always try to make the job easier for itself by cheating, BUT it’s very very good when it can iterate against a good set of tests, so perhaps this means tdd is the best way to program with an assistant

How would you go about optimizing an existing large codebase to incorporate generative AI?

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 22/12/2024

Sure, there are a lot of non-programmers sharing opinions about the future of programming right now, but to be fair, programmers have had plenty of big opinions about the future of non-programming jobs these past few years (?) too. How the turntables.

OpenAI never lost the Mandate of Heaven.

Haha, I missed it too—just watching from a distance, safely from Poland. Nothing happened in the end.

A tsunami warning and a tornado warning in just 10 days. Is that something that often frequently in SF? Asking, well, for myself.

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 14/12/2024

Nothing, it’s only natural after such a huge influx of new users. Just keep growing naturally.

$NVDA: hold or sell? 😅

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 14/12/2024

Haven’t tried it myself yet—price!—but I’ve encountered similar issues in the past, so, yeah.

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 14/12/2024

Leaning towards “good” more often than not now—especially o1 pro.

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 14/12/2024

Everybody who complains about Ciri being the main protagonist in The Witcher 4 just lost all their credibility in complaining about games being “woke.”

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 13/12/2024

Had a day like that this week. Victory rarely tastes so sweet!

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 12/12/2024

Prediction: The more OpenAI wants to get out of their deal with Microsoft, the more we’ll see an inflation of the term AGI being thrown around.

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 11/12/2024

Nice, another regulation to keep track of, so happy to hear that. /s

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 06/12/2024

o1 vibes based on my feeds: sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe shit

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 05/12/2024

OK, I didn’t expect a tsunami warning today.

000

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 05/12/2024

I’ll look into this over the weekend. I’m traveling long-distance, so I won’t be able to get to it sooner. Could you create a GitHub issue in the repo, please? That way, I won’t forget. Thanks!

If you caught my presentation yesterday at SF Ruby & AI, here’s a quick summary. I talked about Lammy, my LLM library for Ruby that’s simple to use and treats prompts as programs rather than plain strings.

Another SF Ruby starting soon!

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 01/12/2024

Just wrapped up preparing my talk for next week’s SF Ruby & AI event. Now I can look forward to it with peace of mind!

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 30/11/2024

It’s not a primary one but definitely one of the main three—alongside Twitter and newsletters.

020

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 28/11/2024

Kudos! I bought the early version but wanted to wait for the full release before reading it. Now’s the time!

110

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 28/11/2024

It’s not a big deal to me personally. Only Twitter had its own unique term. On every other platform, like a blog or Facebook, you always had to specify where you posted.

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 28/11/2024

This 👇 Open protocols are at greater risk for spam.

020

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 28/11/2024

Post and posting, according to their own team.

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 28/11/2024

Bad decision, @bsky.app. Hopefully, you’ll reconsider.

020

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 28/11/2024

Oh, that's weird. I've got it above "Report post." Perhaps update the app?

210

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 28/11/2024

You can block accounts from the feed too.

I remember how inspired I felt when Paul Graham said, “MUSTAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRDDDDDD”

Haha, turns out I didn't know how moderation lists work. Everyone, use this instead please: bsky.app/profile/kami...

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 28/11/2024

@howard.fm Does this work? bsky.app/profile/kami...

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 28/11/2024

Hmm, I didn’t know those were separate features. Let me have a look at it.

Kamil Nicieja @kamil.fyi · 28/11/2024

I made a list for myself earlier today too: bsky.app/profile/did:... Just people who were hateful and toxic, not necessarily those who disagreed with the dataset in principle.
