sonnet 4.6 just refactored my entire codebase in one call
64 tool invocations. 1M+ new lines. 17 brand new files
it modularized everything. broke up monoliths. cleaned up spaghetti
none of it worked
but boy was it beautiful
On Sunday, I used AI to build an app. In a couple of hours, it generated 23,000 lines of code with full documentation and 836 passing tests.
The code is amazing. The app is fully functional, well written, well structured, and has great test coverage.
At least that's what the agent told me after reviewing the project structure, completeness, and code quality.
So I fired it up and clicked the button. Nothing.
Turns out all tests passing and the agent grading its own work as brilliant doesn't mean it actually works. Now I'm debugging, filling gaps, and showing the agent what it missed.
AI can get you most of the way there, fast. But that last bit? That still needs a human who knows what they're doing. Let's not pretend otherwise.
10 years ago if I needed to find an individual who provided a specific or niche service, I could just Google it and find someone's dopey little personal website and I'd give them a call.
Now for every niche service there's 5 different aggregate websites with accompanying app I have to sign up for and log-in to and verify my e-mail with and receive a text code and fill out a 10 minute form about what I'm looking for specifically and I have to use their cursed little in-app chat to contact anyone and the demonic website/app ends up taking 25% commission every time I book someone and all the top matches are not individuals anyway but organizations where THEY have their own fucking system for soullessly matching me with one of their employees and they'll endlessly text me trying to convince me that they're the perfect fit for me if I'm looking for a DIFFERENT service I didn't ask for in the fucking 10 minute form THEY asked me to fill out! And all I get out of this whole tired ordeal is more spam in my inbox.
Even if I find names of people I want to contact on these sinful websites and then I Google them to reach out personally I end up finding nothing but their 17 OTHER listings on competing aggregate apps and/or their linkedin which I have to fucking personally deliver a vial of my DNA to some OTHER data company in order to verify my identity to and I'm just... so over all this.
I used to keep track of all of my log-ins and services I gave my personal data to and I simply cannot anymore. It's a deluge, a blight! I feel so stripped bare of my humanity and anytime I forget where I put my wallet when I'm leaving the house I think about how many hard drives in the world contain the supposedly private information I have so innocently and absentmindedly misplaced.
My body, my mind, and my spirit were not built for this! The days where technology was a tool with which to create for and connect to other humans are slipping away from me! For every phone call that is answered by a machine and every simple tool or device or appliance that I have to "register" to my phone app I lose precious, beautiful seconds of my one and only fleeting life! For every pin number, code, and login I must retain in my mind, a wisp of my soul is displaced to make room!
Humanity is so wonderful, so rich and so pure, it is no wonder that these things which lack it so desperately and aggressively try to steal it!
I challenged my two friends to order a pizza with code.
CJ reverse engineered the GraphQL API
Scott built a Pizza MCP
and I built a voice agent that can make calls

@kelskiYT i have been watching every arc Raiders yt video i can find, just to get that fix until it comes out. i found your video in the recommended. it was a good one.
En China, ya no cualquiera puede hablar de todo.
El gobierno ha establecido nuevas reglas que cambian por completo el mundo de los creadores de contenido. 🎥📜
A partir de ahora, los influencers que quieran opinar sobre temas como medicina, derecho, finanzas o educación deberán demostrar que tienen estudios, certificaciones o formación real en esas áreas. 🎓
Nada de improvisar ni difundir información sin respaldo: quien no pruebe su conocimiento, no podrá publicar ese tipo de contenido.
Las plataformas también estarán obligadas a verificar las credenciales de quienes hablen de asuntos “profesionales o especializados”.
Una medida que busca frenar la desinformación, pero que también despierta un gran debate sobre la libertad en internet. 🌐⚖️
Mientras en otros países cualquiera puede volverse “experto” de la noche a la mañana, China ha decidido trazar una línea:
👉 “Si vas a enseñar, primero demuestra que sabes.”
