Any conversation

game dev with LLMs assisting on some of the engine legwork I learned to do over the years is the most fun programming I've had since I was 12 years old plucking away at the public library commodore 64

A thing I've been doing lately is trying to come to the same conclusions others have without looking their the direct techniques and code. Last night I tried to figure out why people do vector based retrieval for RAG and ended up running these experiments: n0tls.com/…/2026-09-03-i-think-…rag-with-grep.html I'm still going to do an explore agent. #ainotesfollow #ragnotesfollow #evalsnotesfollow

one-point-five-shotted a local node app for creating social posts. drawing from static pages (hey this exists) or new blog posts (timely). with copy/paste to x, and one click post to bluesky and mastodon, tag manager and stale/archive/reject/refresh options. An idea and a solution in about 10 minutes. Madness.

For the first time in a couple of year, I wove a rattan basket today, and the best part is it only took two hours when I was expecting it to take all day #basketrynotesfollow

It's cookie o'clock, y'all.

I'm working on this command-center project. Human describes the mission. Agents define the mission, breakdown and come up with a plan, and drive it. #agentnotesfollow

Is there a terminal app for viewing textlog?? Kind of hate browsers.

On the lower end of the sine wave of stress and burnout. Looking forward to the ascent.

Using Linux hasn't really been fun lately, idk. Nobara, despite building on fedora breaks a lot, but overall the whole ecosystem is so damn inconsistent and fragmented. Not sure if I have gotten more sensitive to this over the years but all I want is a system that "just works" and feels good 😔

Just trying to see how this works

Any runners on here? I mostly consider myself a trail runner, but of course train on roads, too. Good for 1–2 races/year, more into running as a practice, a way to manage stress and stay fit.

wat dis do

Found a "pomidoro" playlist on Spotify with 25 minutes of lofi music, then an "alarm" and 5 minutes of upbeat. Nice idea.
