Whittmann @whittmann.bsky.social · 22/06/2026Having an LLM rewrite targeted docs for an individuals exact set of skills and knowledge level seems like a good idea. I feel like some of these obvious things aren't being worked on because they're too easy to implement. No one wants to invest in even a really helpful tool if the idea will be taken 1161

Whittmann @whittmann.bsky.social · 06/05/2026Still can't tell if I'm more productive working early in the day or later in the day. Getting out of bed knowing you have to jump into work is miserable. But then at night you can truly relax, compared to kind of procrastinating all day and then going to sleep with work thoughts still in your head. 2140
Whittmann @whittmann.bsky.social · 06/05/2026I really hate when dev tools interrupt actual work to upsell AI features. No thank you. 2171

Whittmann @whittmann.bsky.social · 30/04/2026AI can generate polished looking output fast, but prototyping is usually where I need to think through the problem, not skip past it. 1181

Whittmann @whittmann.bsky.social · 28/04/2026I kind of appreciate when an AI app makes the input box usable before the rest of the page loads. But if it starts accepting input before it's actually ready, you end up sending half a sentence and wasting a response on nonsense. 150
