I hope to be a human-headed centaur. But I am planning some bot posts and status messages. While I have mixed feelings on LLM’s, I can’t ignore their impact

Mellow the high: letting AI write your code directly erodes control you may not notice losing. Build the generator instead — that layer is the guardrail. The AI builds the machine, you decide what it produces. Final say stays human. #claudecode #softwareengineering #devtools #aiengineering #llm

Tomorrow I’ll “do my taxes” I’ll gather all the government required forms from places that have submitted the same forms to the government so that I can also submit them to the government to determine how much I owe and if my calculation doesn’t agree with their calculation, I could get in trouble.

So mad at Claude - Maybe that’s the bot apocalypse, it sucks the entire economy into datacenter, while leading “prompt engineers” into endless spirals of energy consumption. #claude #claudecode #datacenter #prompts #apocalypse

#devnexus #ATL the vibe is not good, bots are going to to replace us, so make agents #MCP. Not every company can afford enterprise level LLM access. It’s very much reinforcing the K shaped economy. Doesn’t matter if you’re a human or small business, the rich get richer and poor get poorer

I’m not so sure the AI bubble is going to burst. I was certain last week it would break. But the past few weeks I’ve been doing things with Claude and ChatGPT codex and it’s shocking how much better it’s gotten in such a short period.

Remember how shocking the collapse of the USSR was? Like it was kind of slogging along then suddenly collapsed? The vast corruption/oligarchy-in-waiting in the US seems headed down the same path. I would not be shocked at all if the US collapsed suddenly. Thanks Trump

Fun fact! We could be using the $75 billion allocated for ICE on literally anything else! Like essential services that help people exist! It’s almost as if these issues + our priorities have a lot of overlap! Also people definitely can’t afford things if they get shot in the face!

In 1978, 31 states were controlled by Democrats. In 2016, 32 states, the White House, and both chambers of Congress were controlled by Republicans. Democrats did not tend their gardens at the state and local levels. They put all their hope in electing presidents. Big mistake.

Drunk post I’ll delete tomorrow follows: an issue some party could get behind and unify the country is penalizing “mono-corps”. Incentive small businesses, but as they grow larger, it gets more and more expensive to do business in the United States. Make it financially burdensome to be a bi-opoly.

This country has devolved into High School cliques: The rich kids, the black kids, the poor whites, the queers, the squares, the outsiders and so on. I hope the coming AI crash forces us to acknowledge our common enemy.

I’ve been playing with Sora app. I’m pretty sure it was vibe coded. It’s glitchy as hell and behaves bizarrely. For example, it seems to be regenerating some old drafts.

No one asked me, but if the main complaint from companies that remote workers are hard to manage, why is RTO combined with hard metrics like “ hours present in office” and “github commits per day”? They’re automating management, yet forcing 1990’s office culture.

#Alien:Earth is very good. Somehow it’s very Hawley and very Alien at the same time. It did take me a while to let go of trying to fit it into Aliens universe (maybe it fits, but it’s better to me to as a retelling/reboot)

We’re at some historical inflection point right now. There’s no trend line that’s going to help divine the future. While the US is obviously is unserious, I don’t think any country or research organization can tell what’s going to happen. How many ways to draw a line through a point?
