These are such great questions!

I feel that. I only like working on greenfield stuff. There’s a lot at the fringes of building LLM tools that is not solved or not solved well yet imo. I’ve been working on a language for scripting LLMs for the past 10 months.

The baseball game will continue until morale improves.

lol yes! One thing that is amazing to me is that really well designed MCP servers are like a jobs to be done kind of tldr focused API with instructions attached for how to use it. Should’ve been a thing already!

This is a demo that shows forging a JWT and getting the information for a random Cursor based on an user_id I found committed to GitHub.

Blown away by how great @polypane.app is, but even more impressed with the support level Kilian provides. A++++++

You Should Play Ottoneu I love the NFBC. The games, the competition, and the general all-around service make it pretty much an unrivaled fantasy platform. But if I was married to the NFBC and allowed a polygamous fantasy bas...

Discovered Ottoneu this week.

Can't believe I've been playing fantasy baseball 15 years and only now checked it out. Putting a league together now.

This has a nice summary of what makes it so great:

Luke Raley soullessly carrying the dumb thing through the dugout is a celebration I will remember.

Wow.

I am overwhelmingly emotional and grateful for your leadership and courage and determination. As a parent of trans young adults, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Is it ethical to build unreliable accessibility tools? On the ethics of building accessibility tools on top of inherently unreliable technology (5:33): Some people I’ve talked to have been skeptical about the accessibility benefits because their argument is that if you give somebody unreliable technology that might hallucinate and make things up, surely that’s harming them. I don’t think that’s true. I feel like people who use screen readers are used to unreliable technology. You know, if you use a guide dog—it’s a wonderful thing and a very unreliable piece of technology. When you consider that people with accessibility needs have agency, they can understand the limitations of the technology they’re using. I feel like giving them a tool where they can point their phone at something and it can describe it to them is a world away from accessibility technology just three or four years ago.

I like using guide dogs as an analogy for how assistive technology users are used to working with unreliable tools!

lol why are there bullhorns?

“YOU THERE IN THE CAMRY. WE CAN SEE YOU.”

It’s taxation without representation.

They are gutting programs our representatives voted to fund.

I’m currently thinking more like configuration than inference magic, but clearly defining and testing what med-res and low-res versions look like and how to mix that meaningfully seems like step 1 before magic. Need to be able to mix the repo map stuff with slightly higher res view of data flows etc

Yes! Exactly this. I’ve been thinking about this a ton the past few months.

I want a seamless way to tune the resolution/priority of each subfolder to be concatenated.

I am building somewhat adjacent tools rn so would be curious to hear more of how you’re thinking about it.

I got fed up of posting the same comment every time the topic of LLM hallucinations in code comes up (short version: they don't matter because you'll spot them the second you try to run the code) - so I've turned that comment into a longer form blog post […]

three panel cartoon by @emilyscartoons.bsky.social … in the first panel one person says "let's not talk about politics any more, I can't bear it" and the other person replies "same." in the second panel, they say nothing. in the third panel, the first person yells "THE THING IS THOUGH" and the second person yells back "THOSE FUCKING IDIOTS"

literally every time I talk to friends

This is tragic. Anyone who was familiar with 18F knows those were some of the real heroes of government, who helped make government tech/digital services better for the public.

They were doing real work that DOGE pretends to do, but is too ignorant to know how to do.

“For all your blanchey needs”!! 😂

Omg all the swag is AMAZING
