I have to figure out how to make time to read books. This LLM speak is becoming too noticeable and just ruins the whole experience. sadness 😔

One of my fave (& underused) features on here is lists. I find that I want to follow organizations but I don’t want them flooding my main timeline because they post more frequently than the humans I want to follow. i wish insta had something like this or maybe it does and I have some learning to do.

You can’t talk about debt without talking about how we got into a bad predicament, and there’s only one correct answer: tax cuts enacted this century

The poetry was hard to follow. But one aspect that I don’t hear brought up enough about the book is how the others are chastised for speaking with authority that only God could hold, unfairly piling on Job. That feels to me an equally important learning.

I think what follows then is the admission that if business demands become less aggressive, maybe some things can operate at somewhere closer to human scale again.

Yusuph @yusuphisms.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

📝 I posit that our impending reliance on LLMs is not a function of how good they are. I’ll cede that they are built atop theft, but can do impressive things. It’s a function of otherwise impossible business demands.

Wanted to watch Supergirl in theaters, but just missed the window. It didn’t blow my mind, but plenty of replay value! The challenge for movies right now has to be the cost. I only went to the Odyssey because we read Homer when we were younger— I would not sink that much money into it otherwise.

What…? Which customers are asking for this? I am curious because this direction makes me want 1Pass less not more. Even if I somehow believed that my data was safe (I don’t), I think this is the wrong direction. I would want to give agents scoped credentials, if I wanted to give them access at all.

Since the rise of LLM, has the average size of Slack messages seen a statistically significant uptick? How about the size of git repos? (ok this one for sure has to be like 99.9% true right??)

I just watched an agent make a mistake trying to address a problem. If I were distracted, that small assumption that it built on could be buried in 100s of lines of code later.

Yusuph @yusuphisms.bsky.social · 09/07/2026

I’m still theorizing but I think multi-tasking with LLMs is potentially a drain on productivity. There are exceptions, but I think the average case is better off serializing all workstreams with LLMs until the job is done.

I was handwriting an Apple Journal entry, and then it got overwritten by a random attachment? I have no idea where 20 mins of the start of my meditative writing journey went. I will be picking up a pen and paper now. Or maybe my journey is now about writing and letting go? Am I mad or inspired???

My data has always been valuable enough to advertisers. So the conversation was whether Google would sell my data. But now things are different. My data has become hugely valuable to Google itself. They want to use it to make Gemini better. And then give that model with my data to *everybody*.

this was a beautiful love letter to human development. thank you for writing and for leaning into the tension and articulating a path in the wilderness. the fun thing about LLMs is in many ways they are exposing what has always been a little broken, but doing it in a way that risks the whole dam.
