The Navidson Record is the most interesting part of House of Leaves. Everything else is pretentious literary indulgence.

At work, there is a way to combat this behavior: approve everything without even reading the code.

Now that Backrooms has been a hit, I wonder if we’ll ever get a House of Leaves movie, which was somewhat of an inspiration for the original backrooms lore.

But you don’t need an LLM.

I'm curious, LLMs have been around for a while now... How many of you would say you need LLMs now for work? Not that you want it because it's nice to have, but rather you would literally not be able to do your job at all because

The problem is, that working on lots of little random code projects makes you fall into some kind of local minimum of overall joy and satisfaction. You are robbing yourself of the motivation of focusing on something truly substantial, tha

They were not, but they were outputting code at a pace that was reasonable to review. Now they go straight to prod, 10x faster.

It’s all just vibe coders high fiving each other and saying LGTM. Here’s a secret: I haven’t really bothered reviewing any PRs since September of last year or so. I just click approve and don’t even read it. It has been way less stressful f

The problem is downsides are random and not well understood. Sometimes by luck, an organization might not encounter any significant downsides. These kind of survivor case studies will perpetuate the myth that vibe coding is good enough. The

You will never beat the vibe coders. The vibe coders have a key advantage you don’t: they don’t give a fuck. They blow through a task and move onto the next one. Management sees this as progress, and the vibe coders are rewarded. When shit

I feel like I could still endure this AI hype cycle a bit, that things will eventually stabilize to some point I’m comfortable with, agents already seem kinda cool after the psychosis wears off. But the next big disruptive thing like this

Looking forward to people saying how it’s actually shittier and they’re going back to [some earlier cheaper model]

Wouldn’t it be easier to just label AI-free videos?

It seems like the easiest way to make CEOs and other senior executives feel insecure is to be someone whose opinion they trust and then tell them if they aren’t accelerating AI adoption in their company they’re just NGMI.

Does the 5x faster including shipping? Or just the work part? IMO if you are not shipping out faster then the faster work gains are meaningless. If you are shipping faster, you’re probably picking up more work and shipping everything too fa

Well yea great but why do they have to be there so quickly that not even a private jet is good enough? What kind of multi million dollar deal blows up because a dude arrives 18 hours later? And what are they doing when they get there that c

Protip: skunkworks type side projects are a great way to do tokenmaxxing when you don’t have enough work coming in, but still need to burn tokens to look productive. And because side projects are only governed by you, you can truly go nuts

I like the AI Overview feature because it gets straight to the point and with no ads or cookie banners in the way, not because it’s AI. This is the way the internet used to be before it was enshittified, you just type in some keywords and t
