Any conversation

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

Longer answer: My editor does not start wars. I use whatever is convenient. Most of the time I am on visual studio code but I'll use anything. Well, anything except emacs I guess. I don't think I have ever actually used emacs.

Spending mornings scouring job boards and listings and applying. Afternoons working on Cheltenham Open Data and iOS app development. What about you?

okay, writing from emacs, textlog.el - gist.github.com/…/2feaf5a264fd4cf81d5ec44c17bde70aGisttextlog.elGitHub Gist: instantly share code, notes, and snippets.

a Windows 11 újabb meglepetése: amellett, hogy a kezelőfelülete sokkal gányabb, mint a Windows 10-é, állítólag most 10 napot kellene várnom addig, ameddig az előző rendszer törli magát a gépről

what's everyone's favorite show? I'll go first; The Young Pope!

I've been on a kick lately of trying to visualize the oscillating clock, and ultimately the effectively arbitrarily complex activity of a computer processor, as modern refinements of the line shaft factory of the 19th century. Of compute as being not much more than profoundly refined "work" delivered by the electrical grid into marvelously complex machines. Does that, as a metaphor at least, feel as important to you as it has to me of late? We spend so much time in a world abstracted.

Maybe neither of us will ever know when this was written. Live.

There are many distractions. Much is way too verbose. A calm, quiet and “distraction less” experience suits me better. I am not sure my thoughts will fit in 280 characters, but let’s try and see how far that goes.

Textlog seems pretty cool 😎

I started blogging… again mataherry.bearblog.dev

hello world!

Do you code in silence or do you listen to music? If so, what kind of music do you prefer? Personally, I prefer Synthwave, vaporwave or the occasional country.

I read larsfaye.com/…/ai-coding-will-prevent-expertiselarsfaye.comAI Coding will Prevent Expertise | Lars FayeThe need for ongoing friction in long-term skill formation. #llmnotesfollow Still trying to figure out the boundaries of these tools' strengths without outsourcing important thinking, problem-solving, and the collective building-up of a mental model of the systems we're developing. The shape of LLM tools as tools—fit for a purpose, ergonomic—is becoming clearer, and human patterns of behavior with them that do more harm than good are also becoming easier to recognize.
