Everyone's going nuts about Opus 4.5 but I don't really see it. It's a marginal improvement but it still makes a ton of mistakes and requires a fair bit of babysitting to not produce pretty sloppy code.

we don't check compiler output because it's deterministic and covered by a test suite which is also deterministic

I miss email. Here's why I don't like Slack: 1. Conversations not organized by subject 2. Messages feel ephemeral, so everything feels urgent 3. Not easy to add new participants to an existing private conversation 4. Basically impossible to send someone a message without interrupting them

How many exceptions do you tolerate in production? joel.drapper.me/no-exceptions/

No Exceptions
There’s no acceptable level of runtime exceptions any of us should be putting up with.

They called it the Great Depression, I don't think it was that great. People are saying my depression will be much greater. Some say it could even be the greatest depression. I don't know, we'll see. But it could be.

It's so weird that Claude asks followup questions now and tries to keep a conversation going. at this point it's becoming a better conversationalist than some people I know.

I've been admiring Gleam from afar since the 1.0 release, finally got around to trying it via Advent of Code this week and wow is it ever different than anything I've ever worked with. Fun to feel like a complete noob again.
