Many of the thoughts in this thread resonate with my own views on LLMs, but articulated better than I could have.

Built a thing today. I've been doing a lot of `llms.txt` generation/curation with our design system lately and needed a better way to preview the Markdown content. Whipped this up this afternoon. llms-txt-browser.raygesualdo.com

Preview any llms.txt file. Paste a URL to view the raw source alongside its rendered Markdown.

Three months ago, I got some not so great test results from the doctor. Nothing major, but trending poorly. Made me rethink my physical health. I changed up my nutrition entirely, improved my sleep hygiene, and added consistent exercise – a mix of strength training, yoga, and cardio. 1/3

It's so funny watching kids pretend to be doctors. This morning, my 3yo fixed my "sprained wrist" by 1. sprinkling water on it, 2. squeezing orange juice on it, 3. drying it with a frying pan (🤷‍♂️), 4. using a hair clip to tweeze the sprain out, and 5. wrapping it in a sock to keep it clean. 😂

Codemod tools like jscodeshift are great for extracting or analyzing a codebase too! I needed to find out how we were using a number of components at Cribl. Using jscodeshift, I crawled our largest frontend repo, extracted usage data, and persisted it to SQLite.

Played my first game of D&D last night. It was awesome! Here's a Midjourney recreation of when a friend leaped down an ancient well to save me from a giant centipede dragging me down into the depths. Except we both failed our skill checks so I got kicked in the face and he missed the centipede 😂

It's easy to miss a key feature of Node's TypeScript support that was released on Friday: it's zero config 💥 Meaning you don't need to put anything in package.json. Strictly speaking you don't even need a tsconfig to run the code. nodejs.org/en/blog/rele...
2025-07-31, Version 22.18.0 'Jod' (LTS), @aduh95
Notable Changes
Type stripping is enabled by default
Node.js will be able to execute TypeScript files without additional configuration:

$ echo 'const foo: string = "World"; console.log(`Hello ${foo}!`);' > file.ts
$ node file.ts
Hello World!
