I built a variant of @mattpocockuk's grilling skill dedicated to frontend and it has improved how I build new apps and components.
The general idea:
1. Use /grilling and /prototype as a base
2. Tell Claude to build 5 WILDLY different prototypes
3. Tell Claude to include a picker that lets you switch between each variant live
4. Each round you select your favorite(s) + leave feedback, and Claude will walk down each branch of the design tree, helping you zoom in on your desired design
And THEN, I went and added it to /wayfinder, so whenever I make a new map and there's novel frontend work, a ticket is created specifically referencing that /grilling-frontend-prototyping needs to be invoked.
This will not be the last time I build a cool skill and add it to Wayfinder; this is a very powerful pattern for planning work.

Should any of the women's organisations targeted by @AmnestyUK's recent 'anti-rights' blacklist wish to take legal action, applications can be made to the JK Rowling Women's Fund. https://t.co/iyohnrgVZN
Aren’t you the minister for safeguarding women against violence?
And you have to apologise for what you tweeted after a fellow female politician was violently murdered?
Isn’t that a resigning matter?
The issuer of that vile statement is a man, as anyone with even 1% vision could tell you. Specifically, he’s a man who said he hoped she died handcuffed to a bed and screaming in agony.
we're helping a customer spending $60k/mo move from OpenAI & Anthropic to open source models
they use almost every model offered by the labs, so we needed to find replacements for all of them
after generating evals, this is what we landed on
new cost: $12k/mo, 80% savings
@MinnOrchia You're a large man who asserts that his submissiveness makes him a woman (as you've previously stated on this platform). You fetishise vulnerability, yet by no objective measure are you genuinely vulnerable. You're just another bloke who hates women saying no.
I am going to push back on you:
Here are the top 5 threats that as a rear admiral I briefed NATO and our @UKLabour government in 2006 and in public, for which we had to make adequate provision:
1, Uncontrolled migration from North Africa and the Middle East.
2. Returning belligerent Russia.
3. Rapidly rising China.
4. 20, 000 geographically dispersed jihadists (became Islamic State).
5. Collapse of the free world middle class in the face of globalisation and technology.
It pissed off the politicians and got me a career-ending interview with my boss.
A man (Samantha Tempest, here abbreviated to ST) is arguing in court that he belongs in a group for menopausal women. It is pointed out to him that menopause is the cessation of ovulation and that, being a man who never started, let alone ceased, ovulating he does not belong in such a group. He disagrees. He says he's had 'menopausal symptoms' like hot flushes and brain fog. This is like me claiming to have been in the army because I once shot an air rifle and quite like khaki.
David Drury was the press officer in charge when Humberside Police tried to dissuade us reporting on an alleged grooming gang in Hull in 2021, and then publicly briefed against us after we broadcast it - our investigation led to the force having to reopen theirs months later.
Bridgewater, one of the worlds largest hedge funds, a Tinker customer talks through how they've carefully fine-tuned a model focused on what makes interesting financial news.
Their fine-tuned model is more effective and cheaper than any frontier model.
The UK government is about to pass the most anti-gay legislation in over a century.
Labour’s “conversation practices bill” is gay conversion therapy by stealth.
My latest for @unherd.

Claude Tag is a Trojan horse. Not because Anthropic is doing anything evil. Because the incentives are obvious.
Day one, this looks like a great feature: tag Claude in Slack, let it follow the thread, remember context, connect to tools, break down tasks, chase work, and act like a teammate.
But that is exactly the problem. The moment your AI vendor becomes a shared coworker, it stops being just a model provider. It starts becoming the place where work is interpreted, remembered, routed, and eventually executed.
That is not model lock-in. That is context lock-in. You are now renting your company back from them.
Models can be swapped. Agents can be copied. But the memory of how your company actually works is much harder, maybe impossible, to move: the Slack scar tissue, the exception paths, the customer promises, the unfinished threads, the weird workflows, the implicit owners, the “we tried that in Q2 and it failed” knowledge.
Once that lives inside one vendor’s agent layer, you are not renting intelligence anymore. You are renting your company’s operating memory.
And the pricing model makes it even more dangerous. A human coworker has a salary. Claude has unbounded tokenized activity. The more work moves through it, the more the vendor captures not just IT spend, but labor spend.
This is the enterprise bargain people will regret: Convenience now, and rapid decent into dependency.
The right architecture is simple: rent the best intelligence from whoever is best this month. OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, open source, whatever. But own the context layer.
Your company memory should be inspectable, permissioned, portable, and model-neutral. It should not be buried inside the same vendor that sells you the intelligence and the workflow surface.
Claude Tag is useful. That is why it is dangerous. Rent the intelligence, but own the context. Or, regret later.

Not saying it's not cool. RLing existing models is a perfectly valid reasonable thing to do.
But they're not exactly not Chinese.
Infected blood, Thalidomide, Sodium Valproate - a few ongoing medical scandals, people still fighting for justice and compensation.
Imagine being Health Secretary for what, 3 months, and choosing to embrace the future scandal of giving 11 yr old children puberty blocking drugs.
🚨Important Announcement: Puberty Blockers Judicial Review🚨
Following months of radio silence, I’m saddened to report that the government has announced that it is pushing forward with the puberty blockers trial, regardless of the significant ethical concerns raised that led to the temporary pause.
Most troubling of all is that they are now refusing to halt recruitment of children until the end of the Judicial Review that we are bringing.
As such, we have no choice but to seek an emergency injunction to block a single child being recruited and given this poison. There will be a hearing at the end of July to determine this.
Please rest assured that I and the entire team will be pursuing this Judicial Review all the way.
@jamesmurray_ldn - Just as with your predecessor, Wes Streeting, we implore you to do the right thing and pull the plug on this monstrosity of a trial. If you don’t, we will see you in Court.
