When I write commit notes vs when Claude writes them


I wish there was a better way to vote with your tax dollars. I don’t want to boycott a company. I’d much rather be in a country that spent on healthcare instead of ballrooms and invading other sovereign nations.
Need to figure out how to make that happen. :/
Me too sticker. Me too.
My problem with all these alternatives is that we are visual creatures. We even like to see words as confirmation of our intent in UX. I’m not bullish on any non-screen phone alternative. At best you get good accessories to phones.

Testing out some agent loop designs on local models and I can say that both I and the model have found 100 ways that haven’t worked yet. I love how it at one point reasons it can just make up an answer. :)



Some space needle shots from earlier this week before the fog on NYE.





If you want to know how I ended training my own image object classification model there’s a book you can read that explains it well.


Another in progress teaser of my new app. #buildinpublic
Old enough to have once submitted an App to iOS version 1.2. It made about $250 at the time. I thought “that’s it. This is peak mobile app!”.
Going for round two soon. But what is it? #buildinpublic


Selecting anything over 50 emails in Gmail and asking for it to take a bulk action is more of a suggestion. “That’s a lot, I’ll get to it later” is the vibe you get in return. One day later… you went from 6K attempted deletes to 1K accomplished… and Gmail gave up.

What Nano Banana can do with single shot prompt grounding is truly impressive.
I can’t share some of the most impressive ones with my kids merging photos and changing outfits. They were all pretty flawless and fast.
So I’ll just post our dog mountain biking. Which was a little more slopish.


First time I could see it with the naked eye and the camera. Awesome!


Cool Claude Code Ai Use: Hyper-personalized learning
I wanted to learn about Swift for Mac and iOS development so I vibe coded a working app. But the cool part was then saying “I’m new to swift development. I have a background the last few years in Ruby on Rails. Give me a primer on Swift using this project as a teaching tool.”
It built a 1,500 line guide that walked me through the Vibe Coded swift app to show me how it worked with a comparison to each concept in Ruby/Rails!

Low key best part of my new iPhone is sharing USBC charging with my laptop cords.
Why does mainstream news cover every minutia of the shutdown, but no coverage of the daily atrocities committed by ICE? Scared?
Real coverage would get people to actually start thinking abolish ice is the right idea.
I liked the “war on drugs” better when it wasn’t an actual war.
Am I an old curmudgeon or are some of the UX choices in IOS26 huge steps backwards and often just ugly?
And it’s not really the glass that bothers me.
Go Cascadia. More of this please.
Didn’t want to ask him if he extended this stance to Trump if he was on “the list”. I think I know the answer. But we should release the files anyway and find out.
No hero’s in this story. And the quote should make it clear there is no longer a “free market”.
“In the past, this would have been an unusual arrangement: businesses rolling out product lines that flattered a president and funded his library, announced by a lobbyist they had hired to influence that president.”
Whenever I get this I feel like Copilot is asking for time off.
“No - back to work. That codes not going to write itself!”
That’s what we need. AI trained to agree with Catturd.
