Just crossed more annual commits until July 2026 than I made in any previous year. The Silicon Valley "AI Zombie" allegations might actually be true.🧟

@auteurhouse This is Arrested Development, the blue bar being the episode where Tobias blue himself, ofcourse.

Back to Claude after a short hiatus, and BOY! Love what I'm seeing. Thanks, @claudeai @ClaudeDevs #Opus55

Hey @ClaudeDevs, it would be so good to have the CLI show the model (and maybe context window % used) on the bottom right which is not used now.
Most of the time, we would be running multiple CLIs (the color and rename are a boon, btw) but would forget which CLI is using what model, and it becomes a pain to scroll till the top to see the model name.

Update mid sep'26:
Plan: Fable 5.1
Implement: Opus 5
Quick changes, tests: Muse 1.3 (check it out, it's pretty slick!)

#aiModels #muse13 #ai #solopreneur

[Deepak Thomas @thinkdj]

Winning combo for me:
Plan: Fable 5 Max
Implement: Opus 4.8 Ultracode
Test: GPT 5.6 Luna xHigh Fast

For implementation, surprisingly, I found 4.8 to be better than 4.6 and 5. 4.6 has a good rep amongst coders mainly due to the way it follows og instructions. For smartest implementation, 4.8 wins.

@OpenAI What kind of a user experience is this?

[Deepak Thomas @thinkdj]

@Lenskart_com @LenskartSupport Also, if it's delivered to store, this is NOT the update you need to show to the user in the app. #terribleUX

[Deepak Thomas @thinkdj]

I asked for delivery for home (order with multiple items). First one came home. App also clearly shows it's home delivery for second item too. No point saying it was "already delivered to store" when that was not even the task. No intimation to customer too, how would we know? Went and picked from the store. Wasted time and effort.

[Deepak Thomas @thinkdj]

@Lenskart_com @LenskartSupport @peyushbansal @LenskartSupport Why was it delivered to STORE?

[Deepak Thomas @thinkdj]

@Lenskart_com @LenskartSupport @peyushbansal tired of waiting :)

[Deepak Thomas @thinkdj]

Ted Lasso Season 1 was heartfelt and awesome. Season 2 seems to be losing that charm. "Led Tasso" was cringe. Hope it picks back up, as I see good word about the now-running season 4.

[Deepak Thomas @thinkdj]

Also, "revert back" ? From Jetbrains ?

End of an era. Discontinued after a decade!

@sflorimm The pace at which things are changing in the AI/LLM arena - it's unbelievable.
