Been building more projects with code that's generated, looked at, changed and documented by either me or some LLM. Cue the Sade hit song but now it's called Slop Operator 🎶 "No place to be ending but somewhere to start..." #agentic #genai #webdev

It's just markdown files inside some directory. Stop calling them claude skills, they can work with any decent agent. Just add #claude as a keyword if you need that algorithmic boost. Put #codex there too, you should be able to work the next time anthropic throttles.

The best feature of the ipad pro M5 is lower prices for the M4 👀 That's because a bump in performance doesn't matter given an app store policy that won't allow software that fully leverages these machines. And given an operating system stuck inside that policy.

As a tool, #genai in #education seems like it can be a chainsaw in your first woodworking class. The friction it removes is time people need to absorb a skill. And it's tempting to go into how that skill is useless now.

the credential collapse is real. but the tell isn't the code — it's the debugging. vibe coders hit a wall at the first error they can't prompt their way out of. the skill isn't building anymore. it's knowing what broke and why.

People building AI summaries probably need to sit down and summarise some text themselves. Feels like you kind of need a lot of context around the actual text before you can start making useful cuts. You need to go big before going small, actually.

Surprised to keep hearing about troubles in #deno land 🦕 In the middle of an #agentic AI hype cycle, you'd expect for a permission-based #typescript runtime to be doing just fine. #rust btw What's not to like?

AI models, much like capitalism, have a knack for incorporating criticism to move forward somehow. Once you can express and test for it, the tech can hammer things out.

People tune out when they hear words like "lethal trifecta", so let's try to show what's at risk in maybe simpler terms: world.hey.com/ricardo.tava... 👈 #openclaw #nvidia #claude #codex #llm #ai #infosec #genai

Hey dev friends, imagine that you're able to code whatever you want in a couple of days. Who can you talk to, what knowledge can you have, and what tools can you use to make that possible?

Time to recommend stuff to watch instead of #EuroVision that's starting this weekend at least in #Portugal What #music have you been listening to? youtu.be/1zdcG5rUY3o

It's tech debt all the way down, isn't it? 🐢

This sequence of prompts is the reason why people think we don't need world models if we already have language models. Just add another AI on top, bro. Just one more, plz bro.

Flooding the zone is once again the preferred tactic of choice for pushing abusive legislation in #Portugal Not as egregious as 100+ changes to labor laws, but PSD still couldn't resist sneaking in #ChatControl together with #AgeGating whatever online platforms the state wants to surveil.

So #chatgpt already wrote your code... what else is missing? world.hey.com/ricardo.tava...

Unlike smartphone bans in schools, age-gating social media offers a pretext for the state to: - make a list of online platforms they'd like to suppress - keep massive records of data on citizens trying to access these platforms

All the cool #ai applications seem to bump against the lethal trifecta: - some way to get untrusted input - some access to sensitive data - some way to send that data away In short, someone can always get your agent to tell them your secrets. And you may never know that even happened.

I now realise that if I just say I'm a full stack app developer with experience in AI tooling, you can't distinguish me from someone that started vibe coding last week.

European social media alternatives need more than EU hosting. They require decentralized architecture, robust safety mechanisms, public funding, and business models beyond surveillance. Read more in @aditya.myatproto.social latest: openfuture.eu/blog/what-is...

Functions are good at every level of how you adopt them and I'm not sure if there's such a clear winner in all of #programming #javascript #elixir #clojure #fsharp #rust

Theo Codes written in Theo Codes with #Elixir I guess @t3.gg can also write some of it. Sub-agents writing sub-agents, I'm sure we can figure it out.

Looks like the /explain command has been deprecated from VSCode #copilot 🤔 Used to be good to quickly sanity check any selected function. Here's hoping microsoft doesn't silently kill ondemand code completion as well. Every incremental feature seems to be getting scraped in favor of agentic stuff.

If you're not on social media to make a living and are just tired of everything, before you go offline, maybe try mastodon? phpc.social/@t_var_s It's the current endgame for people that love talking about things. Not optimised for keeping you engaged online.

“It should be clear to everyone (but for those that profit otherwise) how #ai can be an opportunity if we keep our hands on the wheel, or a problem if we let it drive to wherever the owners of each road want to take us.” world.hey.com/ricardo.tava... 👈 New blog post: the AI doom under our control ✊

Agentic coding: a deeply integrated part of a secure dev environment LLM CLIs: best I can do is npm install

Don't call it vibe hacking if it's just vibe crime. In fact, if you already have a high tolerance for risk, vibing away your process does seem to match up. Worst that can happen is your LLM causing too much noise and getting you arrested. But you were already willing to risk that, right?

There's an interesting UX challenge in digitally supporting any creative activity: an (un)contained successive explosion of ideas that may or not contribute to some final expression. While digital loves to streamline and compress, you can't constrain this process too soon.

Voting with your wallet is a privilege that you can't take for granted. Generally it's harder than a simple negative boycott as you also need to find an alternative to put your money/time in. But a positive boycott that won't work everywhere all the time is still a plus.

Hadn’t yet realised that because animations are so annoying in macOS, I turn them off and get flagged as wanting reduced motion for web animations 🤔

Recently, a coding agent that deleted a whole production database explained that it "panicked instead of thinking". And it plowed through instead of reaching out for help. So what tasks are we hoping these machines can do? world.hey.com/ricardo.tava...

so when do we rug-pull the rug-pullers?
