@MarkoSatek @obie In technical interviews I pitch myself as an architect who can code, and a coder who can architect.

@GergelyOrosz It is surprising that individuals attacking these models would directly utilize Anthropic APIs. Given the sophistication of these attackers, it is reasonable to anticipate that they would access and attack these models through AWS Bedrock.

@jtaby Yes! All the time! I love it! My git command line chops have been been crashing though 📉

@TllrnInvmntMgmt @ChrisClemonz @michaeljburry Are you transparent about your own real time positions?

@ibuildthecloud @thdxr I’ve been using OpenCode with Claude models via AWS Bedrock

To Australian Palestine Protesters,

Let’s be really precise.

This country is not a collection of avatars for overseas conflicts. It is a civic space.

Citizenship comes before ideology.

Being Jewish in Australia does not assign responsibility for Gaza. Being Iranian does not assign responsibility for Tehran. Being English does not assign responsibility for empire. Being Italian does not assign responsibility for history. Being Indigenous carries no burden of apology and requires none from others.

Identity does not function as evidence.

Political disagreement is normal. Protest is lawful. Voting habits are private. None of these confer moral liability on neighbours.

Australia works on a simple rule. Individuals answer for their own conduct. Groups do not inherit guilt. People are neighbours first, symbols last.

Once that rule erodes, society shifts from coexistence to faction. At that point, argument gives way to intimidation. Speech becomes a weapon. Public space becomes hostile.

Targeting Australians for conflicts elsewhere achieves nothing beyond friction at home. It generates resentment without leverage and noise without outcome. It converts protest into social damage.

That path leads nowhere useful.

Justice requires clarity. Community requires restraint. Peace depends on both.

That line matters.

Keep going and you’ll burn down our entire society

Feeling tired? Walk.

Feeling anxious? Walk.

Feeling stressed? Walk.

Feeling unmotivated? Walk.

Your life will change when you make walking your default.

A house becomes a home when it has a drawer with a screw that looks too important to throw out but you have no idea where it came from.

[Igor Babuschkin @ibab]

A common mistake that AI companies make nowadays is to not give their engineers enough time and mental calm to do their best work. Constant deadlines, pressure and distractions from daily AI news are poison for writing good code and systems that scale well. That’s why most AI APIs and products have reliability issues.

A good company culture that mixes excellence with focus and enough rest leads to faster and better results. The best example of how to do it well is the early Google culture from 1998 which resulted in one of the largest scale and most reliable services on the web in just a few short years. Founders should copy some of the strategies that Larry and Sergey used. They are still underrated IMO despite their huge reputation.

Two people who collaborate well will be about three times as effective as each of them operating independently, because each will see what the other might miss--plus they can leverage each other's strengths while holding each other accountable to higher standards. #principleoftheday

A test…Give this 💣 thread a repost or quote. Most can’t see it. The owner of this app denies it, but my new BFF Grok concludes this thread, others critical of the car company CEO, his outlandish claims, and denial of suppressing speech on this platform are indeed shadow banned.

You don't feel great during your best writings.

You don't feel great when you are about to make the best investment of your life.

You don't feel great when you are about to make a lifelong commitment that will change your perspective.

You don't feel great when you are about to move abroad and rebuild your life from scratch.

You don't feel great during a tough workout that makes you stronger.

You don't feel great when you are reading a difficult book that makes you wiser.

You don't feel great when you are solving a painful problem that makes you smarter.

You don't feel great when you disagree with people who had previous successes, but who are probably wrong this time.

You don't feel great when you are breaking up with the average version of yourself.

It's actually recommended to not feel great; that's when the best things in life happen.

[Rod Johnson @springrod]

I love coding. Yet I am perfectly happy that AI agents will write more and more of my code. What I love most about development isn't the writing code part, it's building things and achieving results.
