- I thought this was an interesting take from Simon. I’ve been hearing him consistently say there will be more demand for software engineering in the future. More companies will have the ability and need to deal with software applications, but fewer of us will be hand editing any code. I thought this was an interesting interaction in the clip. Uh Simon, what do you got for us? I’ve just got the one. I think the act of the the the job of being paid money to type code into a computer Yeah. will go the same way as punching punch cards. Okay. I do I think in six years time I do not think it will anyone will be paid to 80:56 — just do the thing where you type the code. Just type the code. Okay. I think software engineering will still be an enormous career. I just think the software engineers won’t be spending multiple hours of their day in a text — editor typing out syntax. 81:09 It will look like punching cards. I think — so. Yeah. Yeah. Interesting. In uh in six years. Um and but software — engineering still very much exists. I believe so. I I hope so. [laughter] I — very much hope so because I think the um the challenge of being a software — 81:23 enginee...

This is opencode’s init prompt. Please analyze this codebase and create an AGENTS.md file containing: 1. Build/lint/test commands - especially for running a single test 2. Code style guidelines including imports, formatting, types, naming conventions, error handling, etc. The file you create will be given to agentic coding agents (such as yourself) that operate in this repository. Make it about 150 lines long. If there are Cursor rules (in .cursor/rules/ or .cursorrules) or Copilot rules (in .github/copilot-instructions.md), make sure to include them. If there's already an AGENTS.md, improve it if it's located in <dir>

- In all of the documentaries I’ve seen on how hard it is to recycle plastic, how hard it is to separate all the small pieces from each other, how expensive it is, dirty it is, how just plain ineffective we are at doing it I’ve never seen this angle. In a nutshell the other side of the equation is that as we pull natural gas out of shale is that we pull ethylene out as a byproduct. We don’t even ask for it, it just comes with the methane gas that we are going for. So as we drill, Frack, and mine this out to heat our homes and create electricity we are stuck with all of this ethylene. It’s terrible for the environment, just like methane it’s a rough greenhouse gas. Companies are allowed to flare off a certain amount, they can push some down the pipe, but are still left with tons leftover that they practically give away. Turns out that this stuff is very cheap and very much wants to be turned into plastic. Very clean food grade plastic, very easily and cheaply compared to recycling. Excess is a big problem that needs solutions, but it has hard problems at both ends of the situation that don’t make it easy for anyone trying to take care of it. Note This post is a thought [1].

feat: add llms.txt endpoint for LLM-optimized documentation by quantizor · Pull Request #2388 · tailwindlabs/tailwindcss.com Add /llms.txt endpoint that serves a concatenated, text-only version of all Tailwind CSS documentation pages optimized for Large Language Model consumption.

I feel for Adam, He has built a fantastic product that the world is running with, something we all needed. Something that everyone laughs at turns their nose up “ppft I don’t need that” the first time they see it, but once they try people get it, and a lot of them like it and keep it. But its something that no one really wants to pay for, no matter how big of products get built on it. As we see more and more features coming to css, its not stopping, the work will always be there. I really hope to see something happen to tailwind to keep it afloat. massive growth and revenue down 80% does not help. Note This post is a thought [5].

Photoshop for text In the near future, transforming text over an entire document will become as commonplace as filtering images. Steph Ango · stephango.com [1] While the non deterministic nature of llms scare the heck out of me in the sense of just cutting it loose on my writing. letting it go through all of my files and just edit them. I do like the idea of mundane tools like “desaturate”, “Gaussian blur”, evolving out of it for text. I don’t yet see this with the tools we have now, but it will be interesting to see them evolve.

File over app If you want to create digital artifacts that last, they must be files you can control, in formats that are easy to retrieve and read. Use tools that give you... Steph Ango · stephango.com [1] file over app is a fantastic philosophy laid out well and concisely documented very well in this post. The idea is that tools will change, we will want to use different tools, different editors, different computers over time. What’s likely to outlast everything is plain text files that we can interact with a wide variety of tools. Not encrypted in dedicated formats that die with our tools, but in plain text where a computer from 2160 is likey as capable of reading the file as one from 1960 would be.

Today I discovered vim-speeddating [1] by tpope. I’m sure I’ve seen years ago but it did not click for my workflow until today. I often go through pictures from my phone for the past few days and make Posts tagged: shots [2] posts, but I want to date them to about when the image was taken most of the time. This allows me to quickly bump days up and down using c-a and c-x even around the new year. Your browser does not support the video tag. [3] Sound on, listen to those new switches.
