Ergonomics for hand composition are less relevant now. The most important trait is how does a long-lived project perform when written by a coding agent. I’m curious if anyone has any takes on the different approaches to agentic styling. I’v

IMO we won’t see AGI until the models are sitting inside bodies with senses and gut biomes and opposable thumbs and the like, all influencing the context window in real time. Intelligence is a full-bodied experience

I had a lot of fun. I think the progression curve gets boring around Boss Level 11. Introducing a prestige system could extend the runway. I thought both Factor and Divide were interesting twists to the battle system, but neither were given

From a non-dual perspective either nobody is a p-zombie or everybody is a p-zombie. I think the trajectory of LLMs will be that consciousness sensations are abundant and low value, and that will give all the non-dual territory over to the i

It’s going to be a long road, but I think as LLMs and their offspring create more and more convincing arguments for silicon consciousness we will conclude that consciousness is about as real as humours, and we’ve all been p-zombies this who

I think of it like a technology checkpoint. Make sure you got as far as everyone else when they gave up, so when the next innovation in that space comes along you can start back up on even footing. You want to have your own pathway to produ

I’ve given these sorts of haystack search struggles completely over to the LLM. Whether it’s finding a bug in code or searching documentation for the answer, I view it as a near-obsolete skill. The past couple of decades it was important to

I liked the results of vectorizer.ai and recraft.ai Input image is important too. When working with the generalist LLM on the raster art, give it context that you are making a logo, direct it to use strokes and fills and minimal color palet

If you search for ‘vectorization AI’ there are a handful of specialized tools and apis that can do it. It worked well for a handful of logos I wanted to convert. Nano banana generated the raster logos, and these other tools vectorized them

Atomic commits compose easier. In case you want to pull a few out to ship as their own topic. Or separate out the noisy changes so rebases are quicker. Separate out the machine-generated commit so you can drop it and regenerate it on top of

I wouldn’t say A Theory of Fun is “the book.” It’s more a coffee table read. “The book” is Jesse Schell’s The Art of Game Design

Most people don’t stay. They burn out and find work/life balance in other fields. Once they realize how depressed their wages were in the games industry there’s no hope of getting them back.

I don’t think volume of engagement is the main issue with social media. Rather, it’s the scope of access. Social media exposes us to too many people and we forget their humanity. Instead of information spreading across the globe along a lat

It’s a start. I’m bummed at how narrowly scoped this is. When the RFC period was open I wrote in to highlight how apartments charge surprise pet rent fees that don’t appear until the application process.

The wording in the fraud cancellation emails gave me a good laugh. "My payment provider said you used a stolen credit card. Why did you do that? I've revoked your access."

Self-identifying as an introvert or an extrovert is a limiting belief. Free yourself from this pseudo-science garbage.

I replaced breakfast with a bottle of Huel six years ago, and I don't see a reason to stop. I still cook for lunch and dinner and I skip the Huel on occasion to brunch with friends. No need to be a zealot about these things. I do keep

I played a party game where you had to describe surviving a deadly scenario ("your car went off a bridge") and a LLM would decide if your answer would work or not. A few rounds in we found the best strategies where answers like: I

I do this technique too, and it's a great time for it. The OLED screen on the new iPad signals that Apple devices are moving to a better panel. If you've been waiting for the right time to move off an Intel Mac and onto a SoC Mac,
