Somewhat humbling to have Claude Fable do a final review of some software that you're about to release and have it then find (and fix) FIVE release blockers, for an estimated (unsubsidized) cost of $149.25 simonwillison.net/2026/Jul/5/s...

I keep forgetting people think there’s a “safe” way to give AIs dangerous access to things. Like, no, it is never safe. Embrace it. Put it in situatons where screwing up can’t matter. If you get into a situation where your answer to a voluntary LLM inquiry could be life or death, uh, don’t do that

coming soon: automatic PDS detection. selfhosters rejoice!

I am in a google meet. As people are sending chat messages, I get a push notification on my phone for every one because I am logged in to my email on my phone This is the most fucking annoying thing in the world. How do I stop this madness without disabling all my gmail notifications?

maybe the reason guys dont go to the dentist is because your provider drops support for your dentist without telling you and all of a sudden you have to pay $360 out of pocket for a cleaning

yeah this shit rules

I think AI is the best opening we've ever had to bring our engineering values to the mainstream, instead of the top single-digit-percent of teams it's always been. But nondeterminism will take more engineering discipline. Not less. charitydotwtf.substack.com/p/ai-demands...

i'm starting a diary on atmospheric login as a way to explore the topic in some depth. our login experience is how everyday folks will form their understanding of what the atmosphere even is—and the design space is super rich. the web may also have some tricks up its sleeve for us...

#atdev friends, if you had an analytics database of all atproto records, what are some interesting things you'd like to know? - how many total posts? - how many chars have been typed across all posts? - how many live/dead PDSes out there? - how many "Jerry, no!"s? - something with the social graph?

I am still in the "hope is not a strategy" camp for agentic engineering at this point

ah shit. really big fan of Double Fine in particular :/

my left hand has been having some RSI for quite some time. it's been off and on over the years, but recently I've been coding a lot more again and it's acting up what are some things that have helped you get through this? advice appreciated! a few things that have helped me that I've tried:

I started writing one thing and got off on this tangent so now I guess there are two things? anyways atproto feels special in a way I tried to put into words

Good news everyone, I've supplied the performance enhancing drugs to the US soccer team (orange slices)

We have begrudgingly decided we must shut down Bluesky because it is too powerful and dangerous to release to the world
