I ran an experiment to see how far it could get with a top-down 2d game, like a more challenging version of "draw a pelican." I'm waiting on Fable to rewrite the whole thing now, but I was impressed by how far Opus 4.8 got wi

Yep that’s right. First sentence was poorly worded, but I was trying to figure out why moving to Austin made me feel nostalgia, turns out it was the Cumulus clouds. Both Austin and Illinois have them, but the Bay does not.

When I moved from the Bay Area to Austin, the first thing I realized: I missed seeing Cumulus clouds, which I saw a lot growing up in the midwest. Bay Area either has blue skies or Cirrus clouds, but never did see Cumulus clouds there.

Thanks for sharing this. Going to try it out on a game inspired by Rust. It's helpful re: the point on rodney - I've had a hard time getting the testing to work well in the browser.

Wow, that's impressive. Had fun playing it for 10 minutes locally. Found myself wanting to discover an enemy base :)

This comment should be higher given how much FUD is in these comments. Hacker News having a meltdown about a bunch of backoffice folks getting laid off while they’re still aggressively hiring SWEs is… something

I remember my first few weeks of Claude Code. The high will wear off as you bump into the limitations, and then it starts to feel like you're more of a "manager of a junior-ish dev." The work shifts to clarity of intent and c

Fair enough, I tend to avoid overly negative people. Criticism can come from a good place to suggest improvements (radical candor), but agreed that some of the comments are just personal attacks. I think we're both in agreement that th

Nice, nothing like a little personal bias to inject into an interview process. If you can't handle criticism and you're just looking for sycophants, you're probably not the type of employer or hiring manager most people want

The origin story of Rust is classic: they got tired of Day Z and wanted to make it better, so they hired some random contractor to copy Day Z with elements of Fortnite and Minecraft, the developer complains that he's entitled to more m

Rust has so many compelling features as a game. It was the first game where I felt like I thought about it while I wasn't playing it, because your character remains "in the game" and your base can be raided even if you log of

Not to mention how much worse it is on mobile. Every web site asks me to accept their cookies, close layers of ads with tiny buttons, and loads slowly with ads spread throughout the content. And that’s just to figure out if I’m even on the

You’re referencing an old and outdated technology that has no capability to handle things like revenue and attribution. New protocols will need to evolve to the current use. Owners want money, so make the protocol focused on that use case.

Cloudflare is a gatekeeper because they’re trying to insert themselves between the owner and the end-user. Despite all the altruistic signaling, they really just want to capitalize on AI. And they’re happy to do that even if it results in a

I pretty much use Perplexity exclusively at this point, instead of Google. I'd rather just get my questions answered than navigate all of the ads and slowness that Google provides. I'm fine with paying a small monthly fee, but I d

I didn’t realize screenshots worked until a few days in, that was a great discovery. And recently learned you can directly paste in copied screenshots using ctrl+v (instead of cmd+v on a Mac).

I've thought about this lately. In order to do that, you need to know where people typically stumble, and then create a rubric around that. Here are some things I'd look for: - Ability to clearly define requirements up front (the

I only use 2 MCP servers, and those are context7 and perplexity. For things like updated docs, I have it ask context7. For the more difficult technical tasks where I think it's going to stumble, I'll instruct Claude Code to ask pe
