@mikehostetler Not sometimes…ALL THE TIME… for the past few days. Feels like we went backward 12 months

@0xJacool @mikehostetler Yep, nailed it

⏺ Now let me read the current fabricated narrative module so I can rewrite it against the real questionnaire structure:

Golf clap for Anthropic…they figured out how to give Opus 4.6 a full frontal lobotomy. The scope and frequency of full on fabrication is stunning

[Mike Ratliff @mikeratliff]

Software engineering is not dead, it has simply evolved. Success today means evolving your mindset from task based …I write code for a living…to outcome based…I create solutions for a living…

[Mike Ratliff @mikeratliff]

Lesson learned…when working with designers never let them use crap tools like Framer unless you want to be forever beholden to brittle and outsourced workflows. Note to designers: Your job is to deliver clean and portable HTML/CSS/JS…only

[Mike Ratliff @mikeratliff]

Splitting more work between Claude and Codex…I am about ready to conclude….that at this moment…for the work I do…and how I like code to be written…that Codex is like working with an engineer with more taste, thoroughness and insight.

Was that enough caveats for you all?

@TomCiopp @mikehostetler @josevalim @ZachSDaniel1 @chris_mccord @jacob_luetzow @sean_moriarity @joshprice as Horowitz was fond of saying…there are no silver bullets...sometimes you just need lead bullets. Elixir and the Beam are all the lead bullets you need

[Mike Ratliff @mikeratliff]

Perhaps only partially POS…when Anthropic sh*ts the bed and you fall back to less capable model….beware…those lessor models can not effectively run OpenClaw…they completely trashed the config in ways that took hours to unwind once I got things back on Opus 4.6

[Mike Ratliff @mikeratliff]

Was pretty excited about @openclaw but in the end it is just a brittle POS

@searls Do you notice a difference in quality via the cli compared to xcode agent backed with the same GPT-5 model?

@josevalim Lazygit

[Mike Ratliff @mikeratliff]

@searls Who in their right mind creates a 3 key shortcut for something so fundamental? Worst Apple Mail ‘feature’

[Mike Ratliff @mikeratliff]

@germsvel I think the key changed in Mix 1.15 to :preferred_envs

[Mike Ratliff @mikeratliff]

@germsvel Yea, I think you are right. Should have read that closer
