I am reminded of a similar event, on Palm Sunday, 11 April 1484, when the alchemist Giovanni Mercurio da Correggio entered the Vatican during the reign of Pope Sixtus IV, declaring himself a divine prophet
I created a simple @obsdmd plugin for some text manipulation I do.
Simple commands that run locally in your vault, providing ~80 text manipulation commands accessible from the Command Palette.
Case / Format, Line sorting, filtering, encoding, etc.

When you ask an LLM for Rust implementation of the #Django template engine...🫣
I know this is a hard project, but I didn't expect it was going to cheat and shamelessly announce it.
@gitlabstatus I think you are having issues... My merge trains are taking forever to start, I'm getting connection errors to https://t.co/bmLN5O6P8B, etc.
Plot twist?
I'm using LLMs to remove it. I know already many patterns that indicate dead code; I "taught" the LLM those patterns and carefully select its targets.
I'm doing major contributions to the future of my company. I'm removing a lot of unused code. A lot. LLMs hardly know the code is useless and they spread the rot.
im fully convinced that LLMs are not an actual net productivity boost (today)
they remove the barrier to get started, but they create increasingly complex software which does not appear to be maintainable
so far, in my situations, they appear to slow down long term velocity
First major finding: It produced way more code than necessary, e.g it is manually parsing JSON instead of using the readily available deserializers.
Luckily it can be instructed to remove the unneeded code and use the existing tools.
I have AI-induced cognitive overload. I have to validate the implementation of the fairly complex specification (simulation of a replication between replicas). The AI seemed to have produced a decent result; but it can't trusted; it's now on me. (1/2)
#Emacs is so awesome... While I have claude-code-ide waiting for trivial approval (ediff), I use a normal claude code to explore the ediff windows and its bindings.
@leiserfg@OmarchyLinux Not there yet. I'm breaking with Omarchy as a project, but I want to keep many things from it. Maybe I just fork it and fix things to my liking.
I'm leaving @OmarchyLinux -- it is becoming Basecamp's distribution instead of developer distribution. Pushing Fizzy, Hey, and all other Basecamp products into it.
Thanks anyways for showing me something that was cool.
It looks Claude Code is so confident people will accept every changes that, when I reject the first change it proposes with foundational code; it doesn't reevaluate and keep doing pointless changes that won't work because I have rejected the first one.
