it's friday, and never bring software to a fight with expert and their well-kept spreadsheet.

I'm not sure I have two beliefs about tech stronger than. 1. Social media broke the world, and. 2. AI will too, but, like, bigger. and stories like this are not helping to change my mind.

ChatGPT will never find you annoying. That’s dangerous! .

it's friday, and when you get invited to a day-long fight between 140 hot startups and hundreds of eager investors, you go, for the culture.

it's friday, and since there are no other fights or anything to pay attention to today, here's a stupid little niche one to fill a slow news hour.

actually, wait, that's backwards. This fight didn't exist, I asked for one that was stunning and not mid, and then I edited it into this one.

it's friday, and this fight was whatever at first, until I asked for a version that was less mid and more stunning.

it's friday, and don't fight to be the best business; fight to be a decent VS Code extension.

it's friday, and there might be honor and everlasting glory in fighting the machine, but the machine always wins. it beat everyone else, and it will beat us too.

it's friday, which is great, because it means we can't lose all of our money again tomorrow.

But if all these AI coding agents are more comfortable with working on things on far larger but far less interconnected code, you can throw a lot more of them at it, with a lot fewer collisions.

In an abstract way, the pace of building software is capped for the same reason that whole NCIS scene with two people typing on the same keyboard is dumb - there's too much complexity for the thing to be built by too many minds at once. You can't add too many independent workers.
