Algorithm condenser I guess? Trying to connect with the world, and get others connected too. 30y~ old. I do freelance consulting for tech/devops since 2017.

Stock market and others things at all time highs. Maybe not a bad place to take some profit now? If it's not an AI bubble, but instead revolution, we get that and our lives hopefully transformed. But if things crash a bit (or a lot), then at least we took some profit...

"Refactor this file more concisely", claude code -> 15 small edits after 3 mins. Meanwhile you can just one shot a whole refactor if you just copy and paste the whole file into the normal LLM chat. Anthropic pls stop underestimating the ability of your models on my QUALITY code.
And if you try interrupt claude code cause it takes too long on something, it'll corrupt your entire session. And this bug has been there since March... I was really optimistic on claude code (bought the max plan), but not anymore... Too inflexible and rigid.

Just search for "Unsupported parameter: 'max_tokens' is not supported with this model. Use 'max_completion_tokens' instead." and you'll see all the agony. For example:
github.com
Problem OpenAI o1 models require max_completion_tokens instead of max_tokens. When the llm command is used with an OpenAI o1 series model like o1-preview, the -o max_tokens N option returns an erro...

"OpenAPI compatible" is no longer something of significance, BECAUSE OPENAI BROKE THEIR OWN API. The o1/o3, gpt5 models use a different spec compared to gpt4o. But I will hand say, openai's codex seems pretty good for finding the source of bugs. But please... No more slop...

more specialists/consultants than employees. We're all loop maxifiers now. Consolidating and compressing all knowledge. Who are we really? And where are we all going?

On some days I'm absolutely flying with insane iteration speed, other days I question if I'm getting old and dumb? There are so many new ways to do things now, business wise too, much more able to differentiate with your own specialty. And I predict we'll each end up with much

Similar to chess, you need to spend your mental energy wisely when programming. And now with AI coding, it's so much more trickier to manage expectations, focus, attention. I'm trying to find a sustainable rhythm. Too much focus - start swearing at the LLM, too little - bad code.

Helpful error messages from the API? Hell no! 🥲`{"type":"error","error":{"type":"api_error","message":"Internal server error"}}`

MCP seems like an abomination? Tried to setup something with anthropic, you need a domain, https, HTTP 'SSE'... So much boilerplate and things to get in the way... What happened to keeping things simple???

And weak back muscles (where other muscles start compensating) as well can be a compounding issue to this.

Just as important is your spine. It can stiffen up if you don't have sufficient mobility. If you're sitting a lot for your work, just go to physio and ask them about your spine and whether it's stiff or not and what exercises to do to avoid this.
have not had a massage in years, turns out knots build up that ruin your posture & cause long term pain and that you can just remove them most people who are aware of this are so because back pain that they get massage for, and then decide to not tell anyone else

I get annoyed with how slow claude code is sometimes, I instead use chat for faster iteration. I wish you could let it shotgun/burst to read more files quickly rather than painstakingly following line by line reading 30 lines at a time.. I should try just asking it to do this?

Wow postgresql's materialized views are super great and nifty. Basically a virtual table, that you can periodically update with a refresh command. So queries that took 3s can now just `SELECT * FROM virtualTable` and boom 0.05s. All handled in SQL + cron so no app changes.

You should definitely run claude code in a VM. It sometimes mangles the input to rg...

Started using claude code more seriously over the past few days. Insane performance for small-medium sized tasks. What an absolute amazing day to be alive and to be witnessing whatever is literally unrolling onto the fabric of reality. This literally changes programming...

Our PR for Lazy Trees has been open for three years since Monday. It's the most important work we've ever shipped, and it is now available in Determinate Nix.
Lazy trees have landed in Determinate Nix 3.5! This is quite possibly the most consequential thing we've shipped yet. Evaluation times down by 3x and reductions in disk usage of 20x—or more. The result: a snappier Nix across the board (especially in large repos). ⬇️

Google's gemini js google/genai library seems to be buggy. Randomly had a look at it's code and it doesn't look great. I realize it's in preview/beta and stuff... But makes me think twice about building upon this. What is happening to software quality? https://t.co/HTkXUIW8De

Are you looking for some devops or sysadmin remote freelance work? Able to dedicate 10-20h a week? Please dm me :) Ever used strace? Good Linux command line experience? Does the overengineered tech and cringey devops job titles annoy you? You'd be a good fit!

Imagine spraining your ankle. But that ankle actually being in your back. I tore some ligaments in my back, absolutely horrendous stabbing pain and fear of something gone seriously wrong. Luckily it's not that bad. Thought I fudged a disc and it was over for my life lol. Grateful
