This is an excellent report on why full RSI / an intelligence explosion is fighting diminishing returns on many fronts, and not yet showing signs of happening. Really recommend reading. I wish I wrote it. While I agree with it, it could end up being wrong! www.noahpinion.blog/p/wheres-the...

Ooh I love that labs are including time to complete a task on benchmarks now. This affects my model choice more than cost a lot of the time

Why do models still default to ThreadPoolExecutor over asyncio? Am I missing something?

Having tried a large-scale migration (Vite + FastAPI → Next.js), it seems like models struggle to generate idiomatic code when given an existing implementation with very different idioms Wonder if it would work better to generate a spec and implement that without ever showing the old implementation

A lot of AI tools feel kind of “top-down” in that they give you a whole bunch of stuff at once that you just have to trust to work well. I much prefer working in a bottom-up way, adding things only when I feel a concrete need and I feel confident in the way the tool satisfies that need.

This is really cool! It keeps secrets out of agents hands by swapping them in at the network boundary. Even without a sandbox this is an upgrade since a lot of secret leakage seems to be agents accidentally reading files and they shouldn’t rather than intentional prompt injection.

I'd skip the Fable hook at the start, but I really liked the rest of this video. It's worth being conscious of the way AI coding tools make it harder to stop when you need to. youtu.be/iPUn1Fnfn0k?...

Working on a side project where deadlines are of no concern, I actually kind of like waiting a few minutes for my agent to respond. Gives me the chance to compact the conversation in my head.

A good thing about usage limits in coding tools is that it forces us to be aware of the different costs of models. It's still hard to pick the right model for the right job, but at least we have an incentive to do so now.

I knew Fable was token-inefficient, but didn't expect it to use 400K tokens and 20 minutes just to create a PLAN for a migration. That's like 3x the total tokens of my entire codebase, including dependencies...

I’ve moved my agent skills from a GitHub repo to my Obsidian vault. Git has felt too heavy for working with some simple Markdown files and Python scripts, and it’s so nice to have them auto synced across devices.

The last time I tried @zed.dev (like a year ago) I think wasn’t happy with the polish on some of the AI features. Now that I’m using separate apps for AI, I just want a fast and good text editor. Maybe it’s time to give it another try.

Yeah, this just changed my view. Starting from scratch risks building the wrong thing, whereas other companies can be a good proxy for what you want to do. simonwillison.net/2026/May/6/v...
On the threat to SaaS providers of companies rolling their own solutions instead:

I just realized it’s the thing I said earlier about how I only want to use your side project if you’ve used it for a few weeks. The enterprise version of that is I don’t want a CRM unless at least two other giant enterprises have successfully used that CRM for six months. [...] You want solutions that are proven to work before you take a risk on them.

I really want to make a thing that you can point to a random poorly documented API and figure it out by trial and error. Then write the docs and self-evaluate ability to use the API with docs; repeat. Needs a good resettable sandbox env but would make APIs much more usable for AIs and humans.

With all these tracking apps on atproto I think the time might be ripe for an aggregator “tracker of trackers”. See what you can learn when combining all that data. And the open data protocol makes it possible.

Apparently Google is blocking Gemini requests from Claude Code on web. So I guess I either have to switch to Jules, or switch my Gemini requests to Claude. It's pretty clear which has the bigger moat though 😅

Interesting to see that Rust is still harder for LLMs than other languages, and this matters on hard tasks! It’s not automatically the best choice when you need something fast and reliable.

I don’t have a deep understanding of what Next.js does, but the message of “we reimplemented the entire API surface of this heavily iterated 10 y/o project and made it 4x faster in one week” is just absolutely wild

From subjective experience, Sonnet now feels just as slow as Opus. Maybe not in raw tokens, but in outcomes. I’d love to see model labs start measuring this more.

This is so true and I'm happy it turned out this way. Humans + AI both benefit. The reason why it's MORE important now is that LLMs forget everything while humans learn from trial and error. We need to compress all that learning into documentation.

Ooh, I like this direction. I’ve been experimenting with keeping thinking disabled for straightforward tasks, mainly for speed.
Sonnet 4.6 offers strong performance at any thinking effort, even with extended thinking off. As part of your migration from Sonnet 4.5, we recommend exploring across the spectrum to find the ideal balance of speed and reliable performance, depending on what you’re building.

Nimo 🏳️‍🌈 @nimobeeren.com · 17/02/2026
I really wish model labs would start posting benchmarks on speed and token efficiency. Can’t we just measure the time/tokens to complete existing benchmarks? Especially interested to see if smarter models can be faster on certain tasks by needing fewer tool calls.

Agentic coding is starting to feel cost-bound again for me. I use API-based billing (bc work) and I’m no longer sure that what I build is necessarily worth the price tag. $20 for a feature is not much, but also not negligible. And I don’t like that I have to consider that before starting.

I think CLIs are winning precisely because they are *not* very open-ended. You’re fully constraining yourself to text input/output, and that’s great for LLMs.
