you gotta admire the raw-ness of @antirez.bsky.social youtube channel, lots of interesting stuff and mostly "just putting it out here" vibes 👌

I’ve fully come around to file system based routing. yes it’s weird to have some of these [slug] filenames but wow, it’s just so much less boring glueing stuff together

i think the thing about JS that bothers me the most is the laizzes-faire control flow, return anywhere, crazy syntax constructs for if expressions, … if it only was s-expressions 🥲

its becoming annoyingly commonplace that model choosers switch to 'auto' and then don't even clearly label what model was used and why 🥲 like how am I supposed to build ~intuition~

I've been using this stack for a project and it feels so much lighter than Supabase. Love Supabase but RLS and auth just try to solve for problems I don't have. - DB: Neon - Auth: better-auth - Frontend: @astro.build - Deploy: @fly.io - Jobs: Trigger

Can't remember where I read this but thought it was an interesting take: o1-pro, gpt-4.5 and other expensive models are effectively a "drop" to see if the market can find emergent, useful behaviors. Presumably because they haven't found them internally yet.

I stopped myself from vibe coding my way to some organized markdown files and instead tried Claude code. It's cool! (and slow & expensive) But mostly cool. More things should be agents.

cant wait for when claude code gets fast, really an interesting way of working with local files. it scans and loops and mostly gets it all right

a tweet by @primawesome

My neighbor told me coyotes keep eating his outdoor cats so I asked how many cats he has and he said he just goes to the shelter and gets a new cat afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding shelter cats to coyotes and then his daughter started crying

The custom project rules editor in Cursor is a mess, you can put this in settings.json to just use a plain markdown editor. Shoutout to @rdotpy in the Cursor Forum!

why do none of the cursor rules directories have rules files in the new format?

Fully back on the Perplexity train. Having access to R1, deep research, great search grounding all in one package is such a killer. Never been so fun to follow your curiosity ✨

Hey @simonwillison.net 👋 I've made a thing to better inspect the logs `llm` is creating. Especially when scripting this can make it easier to get some kind of observability :)

Whats the most lo-fi way I can go about creating prompts and evals for those? Preferably something that just runs locally, doesn't require a subscription etc.

Martin Klepsch @martinklepsch.org · 20/02/2025

I want to package a small node server + react app as an NPM package that you can run with `npx`. I started with `vite-express` but when running the package it won’t serve the static files… Anyone think of an example I could look at?

Martin Klepsch @martinklepsch.org · 20/02/2025

A super easy change I've made in how I use LLMs: editing my initial message over providing "corrections" in subsequent messages. It means less context to get confused over for the LLM and at the same time forces me to "craft a prompt" vs. "no, do it this way". Learning more!

@joshwcomeau.com I just read your article and was thinking it would be great to include a section on error recovery. Say you store some complex data in local storage and somehow the app crashes with the previously stored data. How to recover from that? Found this tricky myself!

One nice benefit of migrating my site to Astro is the build-time syntax highlighting of code blocks. it’s something I just never got around to with my old setup

@simonwillison.net question on llm logs — is there a way to attach metadata with each request? Specifically thinking that it would be useful to attach metadata like "task" or "version" ... I was thinking of making a little Web UI to view the `llm` logs to help with local inspection

Martin Klepsch @martinklepsch.org · 06/02/2025

working with llms is a bit like doing drugs, the results are probably worse than without... but once you've taken a few hits, its hard to forget the high

React question: this hook to measure element size doesn't use throttling / debouncing. Wouldn't this be something you almost always want? Why is it not included? Genuine question.. I'm guessing since this is a widely used lib there must be a reason? github.com/alibaba/hook...

The other day my flatmate showed up with a 700 page PDF "Netzbauplan" published by a German grid operator. 700 pages of tabular data... published as PDF. 🤦‍♂️ With the understanding that "it should be easy" and poor impulse control we started throwing PDFs at different AIs...

Martin Klepsch @martinklepsch.org · 13/01/2025

Spent the evening trying to use Gemini models for extracting tables from a 700 page PDF. Unfortunately empty cells would often cause rows to „slide“, breaking the data. After a while I tried Claude based on a Reddit comment and it nailed it 100%.
