@i2cjak something cool

@OwenBrakes Definitely a cool topic, the newest chips get even crazier with loop counters, multiple differently sized tables, path based history, and a bunch more shit. I got lost down the rabbit hole the past couple of months myself.

Chronic boredom will kill you quicker than chronic stress.

@SnazzyLabs @Pebble Is that a Grand Seiko?

Being busy is simply being busy. It's not proof of anything.

@strager I don’t know if I’ve just been lucky but I never had to do anything special to get CC to use uv properly. Is this something that happens if you let the context get big? Feel like I’ve seen a lot of people complain about this.

A bespoke software revolution? I don't buy it.

It'll exist. It already exists. Small consultants and big consulting firms have made custom software for years. It almost always sucks. It’s bloated, confusing, and because the client pays, it’s built wrong in all the ways.

Who’s excited about bespoke software? Software makers! Of course they're excited about building bespoke software — that's what they do. X is full of them. Your feed is full of people who love making software talking about making software. Of course they’re excited about the revolution. Echo, echo, echo...

Most people don’t like computers. Nobody in tech wants to say that out loud. People tolerate computers. They use them because they have to. Given the choice, most would rather not think about them at all.

So when someone suggests that AI means everyone will build their own custom tools, ask who "everyone" is. The three-person accounting firm drowning in client paperwork? They want the paperwork gone, not a new system to maintain. The regional logistics company with 40 trucks? They want the routes optimized, not Joe spouting off about this new system he’s been messing around with. The law firm billing 70-hour weeks? They want leverage on their time, not a software project to design.

They don’t hate technology. But building and maintaining their own critical systems isn’t their wheelhouse, regardless of how much faster and easier it’s become. It's another job on top of the job.

Will these people use AI? Absolutely, for all sorts of things. Will some outliers go deep and build real custom systems? Sure, but they're almost always people who already had some pull toward software. The curiosity was already there. They were dabblers before.

Giving everyone access to software building tools doesn't mean everyone becomes a builder. A powerful excavator doesn't turn a homeowner into a contractor. Most people just want the hole dug by someone else. They don’t want the responsibility either.

@theJayAlto People could learn so much more from those around them if they chose to listen instead of just hearing sounds shaped like words.
