Michael Gwilt @mike.dev · 21/10/2025I just had to talk to a chatbot at a doctors office and I think I developed a heart condition in frustration. They replaced the normal intake form with a thousand chatbot turns. 120
Michael Gwilt @mike.dev · 10/09/2025The only thing I don’t like about MCP is that clients make me beg to include tools in the plan. Like, just give me a checkbox to say you MUST schedule a tool call in the plan. 000
Michael Gwilt @mike.dev · 07/09/2025I literally cannot work with Firestore without seed data in json. I lose track of fields almost immediately, otherwise. How does Firestore scale to large teams? Do you end up with a ton of spaghetti checking if slight variations of field names exist? 100
Michael Gwilt @mike.dev · 29/08/2025Had a dream that a rust app was silently crashing every time I tested it. That’s it. That was the dream. Over and over. 000

Michael Gwilt @mike.dev · 12/08/2025My favorite thing about wandering into Applied AI as a focus is that in 200 lines of code you can make something profoundly useful. Like, the dopamine efficiency is off the charts, especially in CV. 000
Michael Gwilt @mike.dev · 09/08/2025Trying out Dapr Agents today. I tried Dapr+Aspire about a year ago for this purpose but they didn’t have a dedicated concept of an agent. 000
Michael Gwilt @mike.dev · 04/08/2025I still think Dapr is one of most under utilized frameworks for agentic app development. 000
Michael Gwilt @mike.dev · 01/08/2025if docker compose supports llm endpoints, that means I can start models in my devcontainer definition. 000
Michael Gwilt @mike.dev · 24/07/2025so the next big phone tech competition is certainly focusing on AI chips right? now that I’ve experienced a high quality model in my palm, I want m o a r 010

Michael Gwilt @mike.dev · 26/06/2025OpenAI’s Deep Research is very interesting when you tell it to limit its research to a single website. In this case, I limited it to app.leg.wa.gov and it just ripped through Washington renters code and found exactly what I needed along with supporting information from other sections.app.leg.wa.gov 100

Michael Gwilt @mike.dev · 04/04/2025I’d really like to see Microsoft.Extensions.AI.ModelContexProtocol The repo that Anthropic picked up is pretty ok but I think this is a gap that Microsoft could fill in a more robust way in-framework, especially since they’re integrating the spec into their products. 000
Michael Gwilt @mike.dev · 03/04/2025I appreciate how re:Invent throws frugality to the wind and prioritizes the customer in an almost obscene way. 000
Michael Gwilt @mike.dev · 03/04/2025Converted my Unreal Engine MCP server plugin from Python to Rust and cut out having to have a TCP server from UE->Python Now it’s Unreal C++ <-> Rust through C bindings. No more Python dependencies, just a dll to drop into your binaries folder The majority of the code is C++ anyway 110
Michael Gwilt @mike.dev · 31/03/2025A small experiment today. MCP server wired up to Unreal Engine 000

Michael Gwilt @mike.dev · 09/02/2025I really, really like ECS as design pattern. Having put it into practice has certainly changed how I approach coding. Working on a project where the entire state is in memory has been a wonderful change, after a career of focusing on offloading data to SQL as fast as possible. 000

Michael Gwilt @mike.dev · 30/11/2024Fab is a great idea with actual cursed execution. Not being able to filter by engine compatibility is a huge miss. Never mind that if you actually want to add something to UE, you need to add it to your library and then fully exit the launcher to get it to show up. #unreal #ue #unrealengine 000
