I've dropped down to 4.6 and it's better tbh. Faster and more consistent. 4.7 spins its wheels a lot and goes down wrong paths often.

I used to joke that if I ever interviewed for another job, I'd need them to put
@phish.com
on so I could actually program. It wasn't really a joke. After thirty years the cue and the state had fused. Then 2026 happened and I supervise agents now.

opus 4.6 was better than 4.7 right? or did anthropic just fiddle some adjacent knobs to make it worse? 4.7 keeps failing whereas 4.6 used to get me great results.

it's funny looking up movies that had an (even slight) impact on you as a kid, and finding out they were both critical and commercial failures oh well, it hit me.

people trying to act like writing code was always easy is cracking me up. why are people so obsessed with making broad spectrum statements that clearly don't reflect any semblance of reality. writing code was hard, figuring out what code to write was hard, debugging code was hard.

It's surprising to me how dismissive people are about Github's usage increase. I called this out 9 months ago – the amount of code being written has shot up exponentially. Github should have prepared for it better, but sheesh, it's a weird world.

my brother received a $1,300 bill from Cloudflare purely for d1 reads based on a few inefficient queries and AI scrapers. this was a test project. On a server, an inefficient query means degraded performance. On serverless it means an unbounded bill? How is this a model that ever scales?

Hot take: I’m not sure there’s been a more damaging metric to the web as an ecosystem than TTFB. People should go fix their data layers and UX first.

I don't know why intelligent software engineers are acting like a single vulnerability that was fixed with swift professionalism somehow invalidates the entire software itself. if you believe that, you should stop using all software. it's incredibly shallow.

if we deployed GPS before understanding relativity, we'd observe that something was wrong with no understanding of why. so scientists would either have gleaned relativity from its practical application – or they would have introduced a constant to account for the drift.

Writing just two drafts is a bizarre cheat code to clarity. Write a complete draft. Note what works and what doesn’t. Re-organize that first draft into an outline. Now write it again. The insights gleam off the page.

fun fact, not many know this, but in 2008 Doc Rivers rallied his Celtics team by encouraging them all to install Ubuntu. after collectively debugging audio drivers, the team bonded and went on to win an NBA championship.

there are so many wonderfully odd 'hacks' you can apply with AI one of my favorites is to ask it to assume the identity of [insert person here] and have it criticize my work. use people at the top of your field whom you deeply respect. incredible analysis pours out with very short prompts.

designing public surface apis and contracts was always nuanced, but they're all the more important in this age of agentic coding. if you give an agent an escape hatch, it will take it rather than use the better defined path.
