If you want to watch some fun this morning tune in to akc.tv. It's the AKC Agility Invitational. We are in Ring 2 with the toy dogs.

Ready for season 2

The "more electrons" thing is really stirring up all the "well actually" types that are always such a "joy" to work with 😒

Inflation is way down, and also pennies are now worthless.

My theory is he demanded a sign cuz he keeps getting lost and can't find his own office.

Need a Sandwich Artist

Uber/Lyft have been a sort of social safety net for people between jobs etc. What happens when robotaxis take over?

Setting my clocks back to October.

Is this designer in the room with us now?

Did it hurt when you fell off the retention policy?

github.com/slatedb/slat... 👀 SlateDB has transactions. A year in the making. Lots of testing to do, but the APIs are there. This was all @flaneur2024.bsky.social. 🙏 I am very excited about this feature.

Prost! Bonus points if you find Larry Bird.

But they were all of them deceived. When DATELINE continues.

"We tried something different: Convert the MCP tools into a TypeScript API, and then ask an LLM to write code that calls that API." "In short, LLMs are better at writing code to call MCP, than at calling MCP directly." I'm going to go live in a cave.

This is where I landed, but I get the impression many people are using some other definition that eludes me.

A coding agent that can go to bed early and wake up with a solution.

New post! MCP seems like a lot of hype without much substance. Seems like some developers are catching on.

Have your agents call my agents

Yo you can just brew install codex and get the new rust implementation now. It's a *ton* nicer than like a week ago.

Happy Dog Day!

Two invitations this year!

I don't understand why codex combs through my code with sed and grep instead of just loading the whole thing into the context window. Is chatgpt's window really that small?

Codex (chatgpt) just told me it had completed everything I asked, describing all the steps and explaining the implementation in detail, but actually did literally nothing lol

Finding the Rust version to be way less buggy than the JavaScript version. It's actually shocking how bad the JavaScript one is at just printing text to the screen.

Turns out there is a *second* official "codex CLI", written in Rust! github.com/openai/codex...

If you don't find these AI coding tools immensely useful, you just aren't doing anything hard enough. Which is perhaps the biggest reason to be worried about them replacing you.

If Rust is so great at CLIs, how come every AI lab's code tools are in f'ing JavaScript?

Have moral or practical reservations about installing npm? Try our Native Install: $ curl | bash

ZeroFS has a website now :)

It's agentic. Boogie woogie woogie. github.com/linkedin/Hop...

Why are Chinese AI companies releasing their models as open-weight, while U.S. companies are keeping theirs closed-weight? It's not because Chinese companies are more supportive of open-source — it's because U.S. companies are incumbents, while Chinese companies are challengers.

Asimov wrote about Intuitionists - superhuman pseudo-scientists that quickly leapt to conclusions in fields they hadn't actually studied. They weren't always right, but their offhand suggestions might lead a real scientist to a previously evasive solution.

IC making a career-ending mistake: "It depends."

Wiring good code slows down developers.

Ribbon haul from OKC Summer Classic cluster of dog shows. 5 days, 4 sports, 3 dogs.

Showing my girls in a "brace". We won best brace in show!

Limelight's favorite sport

Lastest MCP features: - elicitations (Y/N) - felicitations (congrats!) - condolences (sorry) - commiseration (there there)

New nuclear mispronunciation just dropped.

It's amazing how often memory leaks and segfaults come up in modern Python.

My binary trees are no longer binary.

Talks submitted: Declarative Data Triggers for the Deconstructed Database Logical Tables with a Universal Flink Catalog 🤞

Allow vim to find devices on your local network? Y/N

I keep running into quota limits when using LLMs at work. It's obvious that businesses will be shelling out tons for higher quotas in the near future. That, or they'll start investing in in-house AI infra. The current state where individuals pay for their own personal subscriptions cannot persist.
