My main issue with AI is that it is still too dependent on me.

TIL: People are saying it will be harder to learn Software Engineering if you delegate the implementation to Agents. Today, I actually learned about flock thanks to an agent that implemented a script for me. Check out `man flock` you might learn something new yourself!

Just back from two days in London meeting old and new friends. I have to be honest: living in Italy is great, but I do miss living in London.

The best AI users are the ones that understand what the model is good at and how to route around what it's not good at. Anthropic is reducing friction. But the gap between average and elite usage? That's on you. Start experimenting. Push the boundaries.

Amazon telling me I should add this to my cart today... should I?

NVIDIA Jetson Thor 🤔 With the GitHub Copilot pricing changes and Claude trying to remove Claude Code from the $20 plan, I'm starting to toy with the idea of giving one of these a spin. Anyone tried it? www.nvidia.com/en-us/autono...

I've canceled my GitHub Copilot subscription and I'm missing it already. I'll use this occasion to experiment with other LLMs and harnesses and report back. For now, I've added some credits to OpenAI and I'm installing Pi (pi.dev).

I've been speaking English 8+ hours a day every working day for the past 11 years, and I'm at a point where I get annoyed when I'm not able to express a concept because I lack vocabulary. I'm thinking in English and I know what I want to say, but the word is not there 🤬.

I've been working out a lot more over the last couple of years! I'm lifting consistently and my pull-ups have improved, but one-arm hangs are still pretty hard for me. That's the next skill I'm tackling 🤞

No, I changed my mind. I just cancelled my subscription. What's the next best subscription that allows me to use both Anthropic and OpenAI models?

Another 3 days and I'm canceling my annual GitHub Copilot subscription and asking for a refund. 🤷 github.com/orgs/communi...

The Anthropic trainer is bragging that they have a very high usage limit and can run at 50 concurrency, while suggesting that YOU run at 3... or more realistically, 2 or 1 or you'll be rate limited. 🤣

TIL: on the "Building with Claude API" course on Anthropic’s Skilljar I learned how to use assistant messages and stop_sequences to extract structured data. TL;DR: Inject an assistant message with "```python" to force the model down a path and set a stop sequence to "```" to extract the code.

Reality is that after 11 years of working from home, I really miss communities. IRC felt like a true gathering of people around common interests. I suppose we have Discord now, but I really don't like the UX (maybe I'm just getting old! 🤣).

At times I really miss the IRC experience.

This is the IC’s golden era. The range of experiments we can run now is mind-blowing. I’ve talked to several managers who all say the same thing: they’d go back to an IC role just to experiment with these tools. We’ve got creative freedom and execution speed that felt impossible until recently.

Project Jarvis update: the \afk command. 🤖 Yesterday I left Jarvis running a task, only to come back and find it paused because it asked me a question. So, I added an \afk command to redirects questions over to Telegram when I'm away from the keyboard. 🎉

First step on any new laptop I get, set the keyboard layout to US. 🇺🇸

Another evening, another feature for Jarvis. Let's see if we can talk to it over IM. It looks like people are going for tokenmaxxing, I'm trying request-maxxing. I'm trying to see how much I can squeeze into a single GitHub Copilot request. Can I do it with two (1 Planning, 1 Implementation)?

What better way to spend a couple of hours on Easter Monday than testing the new Gemma-4 with Claude Code via LM Studio? The performance isn't quite there yet, especially on my M2 Pro with 32GB of RAM, but it's still interesting to test the model's capabilities. #Gemma4 #LMStudio #LocalLLM #GenAI

You can now run Gemma 4 locally on your phone! The Edge Gallery App by Google allows you to run some models on your phone, and the performance is decent even with some older phones. This is my Galaxy S22 Ultra running Gemma 4 4B. I now want to test one of the most recent phones, maybe a Pixel 😏.

Tonight, I'm learning something new by watching Claude Sonnet fix my code after bumping the copilot-sdk/go version. Using go doc <library> can be faster than checking the web documentation. Also, it is good to see Claude Sonnet help fix its friend, GitHub Copilot 🫶

Jarvis just got an upgrade. What do you need to feel comfortable reviewing this PR? 😬

As I said, Jarvis, my personal toy agent, can now create subagents. How do you prevent subagents from spawning other agents? 🤔 Easy! You don't pass the run_agent tool to them. 👏

Writing code in 2026 in 3 easy steps: 0. ​Explain your intent to the Agent ​1. Let it write the code & documentation ​2. Review the documentation 3. ​Go back to step 0 🔁

Friday night update: Jarvis is leveling up. 🛠️ I’ve been working on this agent (built on my langchain-go experiment) for a few weeks, and today’s milestone is a big one: Task Delegation. I added a subagent tool so Jarvis can now spin up dedicated workers for specific sub-tasks.

I’m not really an "orchestrate multiple AI agents in parallel" kind of person. Unless my GitHub Copilot quota resets in two days and I still have 42% left 👀. Then I suddenly become an absolute system-architecture visionary.

This is about YOUR data and AI. This is the message I just got from GitHub. I don't have much to say aside from "make your choice, I made mine". At least GitHub has been transparent enough to make the pop-up very visible. Full blog post here github.blog/news-insight...

I understand that the AI propaganda might be stressful for some, but I love how this TOOL allows me to improve some of the flows and deliver more value without much extra effort.

The Cursor composer-2 vs fast saga continues... 🐛 Yesterday: fast is default while composer-2 is disabled. Today: Even if you EXPLICITLY disable fast in settings, new chats STILL default to it. Note: fast is 3x more expensive! 🤑

Creating it has never been so easy. Another (AI-assisted) late-evening project is out. A VS Code/Cursor BMAD extension and I would love your feedback on it or even feature requests 👇 marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemNa...

There has never been a better time to build a software company than today.

Extremely small, hallucination free, it always has the right answer. github.com/LucaLanziani...

pragmatism is an underrated quality

I've been experimenting with Claude code, but I'm still unsure about the user experience. The thing I'm sure though is that this seems like a big waste of space. Anyone else feel the same?

AI experience [easy mode] Using Docker Compose with an Nginx container to reverse proxy my app, the app's port changes with the PORT variable, but Nginx had it hardcoded. I could've solved it myself through trial and error, but at 22:04, Copilot did it in a minute!

Please Stop Force-Feeding AI FOMO to Others! Not too long ago, I wrote a post about the AI Hype Burnout and how it was harmful to the whole industry. Natural follow up here: lanziani.com/posts/2026/0... #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #Tech #FutureOfWork

A new claw is born every other day, so I've decided to build my own. Taking inspiration from Kelsey Hightower, I introduce you Noclaw. The smaller it can be, PRs are welcome. github.com/LucaLanziani...

LLM (Large Lanziani Models) I’ve been heavily advocating for Agentic AI in Nearform; it got to the point where, during one of my company wide Spec Driven Development sessions someone redefined LLM as "Large Lanziani Models." 😂 #TechLeadership #Efficiency #AI #FutureOfWork

"Less is more" holds even truer in the AI-assisted coding era. Everyone can now produce tens of thousands of lines of code. The real skill isn't producing more, it's managing the entropy. Aim to be the one who can
