@markpentler well, my parents probably have a bunch of VHS tapes from that era sitting in their cupboard. But it would probably take weeks of effort to watch through them looking for the right ad

Illustrations for Tyler Rhodes; a project in which children created speculative evolutionary trees, and I had the fun task of illustrating some of the resulting species :)
@rustyshelf I wouldn't claim it's wisdom, but I started writing again: https://tonyarnold.com/posts/its-all-quite-a-lot-isnt-it
It’s all quite a lot, isn’t it? - Tony Arnold

If you’re in any way connected to building software, I think you’d have to have been living under a rock this past year to have escaped the noise around generative...

@jelly hope everything is alright 🤞♥️🥲

@nesevis I'm also watching the "run things locally" space closely. It seems like the only way to really avoid the mess that's going to happen when the bubble bursts and the surviving companies stop selling usage at a loss.

I don't think things are quite there yet, but it does look promising. Particularly if a bunch of companies go belly up, and suddenly the market is flooded with unused GPUs

@tonyarnold yeah, I've been using Claude with the super powers thing as well for some android dev.

I'm really, really happy with the output it's generating and overall process.

However it absolutely BURNS through the tokens. I notice it's doing a lot of cross checks in the background. Stuff like:
- spinning up agents to review its own work and verify compliance with the spec
- Heavy TDD, including ensuring all tests pass before it begins any work.

All this is just good software engineering practises, so it's hard to be mad. But damn it uses a lot of tokens.

@lightbeaminsight I'm just pottering around the house doing all kinds of random chores, fixing stuff that's been annoying and broken for ages, and it's great 😁

- Scraped off the scratched up frosting on the windows on our front door, so now it looks nice. That one's been bugging me every time I go into my house for the past 2 years.

- Replaced malfunctioning and underpowered indoor pet cam with a shiny new one.

- Fixed a design flaw in the "stuff" hanger next to the front door of my caravan. It no longer falls off the wall every time I drive. Also cleaned and sorted 3 years of junk that had accumulated in it.

I find there is something very satisfying about fighting entropy like this, and putting little bits of the world right ☺️
