Additionally funny (and ironic) that the term "henge" comes from Stonehenge, even though Stonehenge is technically not a henge.

I had this exact same experience in ravenswood this weekend. I was walking to breakfast and one of these bots was blocking the entirety of the shoveled part of the sidewalk. I had to make may way into the snow to inch around the bot just

I wholeheartedly agree that it's significantly worse than single-payer, but to say it hurt young people simply doesn't match reality as I saw it play out. The ACA allowed me to get insurance for the first time since I'd left

Whenever people visit during the warmer months, I almost always recommend or take them on the Architectural tour. The tour guides are knowledgeable, friendly, and tell great stories. The actual tour is a treat - even if you don't car

This is what slows me down most. The initial implementation of a well defined task is almost always quite fast. But then it's a balance of either... * Checking it closely myself, which sometimes takes just as long as it would have ta

I think there's something of a pendulum here, and I agree it's swayed too far to over-diagnosing ourselves. But I also think of my father who passed a couple years ago. We didn't have much of a relationship. He had friends,

I'm surprised by this take, simply because of my own experience, where the further I've gotten from religion over a very long time, the less significant I've found death. Not having "answers" to what comes next has

In theory, I'm a fan of it. I think getting a working mock-up as a demonstration of an idea is far better than building something from a few napkin sketches and then iterating while we close in on the original vision. As for my own wo

I grabbed a cheap one for my 5 year old with some blank tapes. I remember how much I loved recording my voice, or the TV, and eventually LOTS of radio. Tangible media has more weight than just the physical object. Especially in something

I'm ok on speed. Not 10x or anything, but I've been writing full-stack web apps and websites from scratch for a quarter century. The issue is getting the LLM to write _reasonably decent_ code without having to read every line and

The specs would not likely have happened at all, since this is a solo project; although this experience has led me to want to write these things out more thoroughly, even for myself. It's impressive how little work I need to put in go

Even so, "piracy" is rather hyperbolic. The correction definitely clarifies the point.

I think I'd be happier with a standard .agents directory and have all of these in there. I imagine each agent is going to need its own tweaks to get it to work just right with their system prompts, just as Claude already has it's

I haven't tried codex or cursor-cli yet, but I have tried to give gemini a few tasks and in my experience, compared to claude code, it's not great. Gemini's been very quick to dive in and start changing things, even when I do

Nothing quite like "I see what the problem is", and then seeing Claude start reading a bunch of files and strategizing the re-architecture of a feature just resolve its own 3-line blunder. If you happen catch it and you're qu

I do something very similar for the planning phase, as well as for the code-review after a task is complete. I like to switch between opus in claude code and gemini cli, so I can work from the same files rather than copying and pasting thi
