the same technique you use to get a human engineering team to generate a deterministic and repeatable result 100% percent of the time. i know that's a flippant (but true!) answer, it's just a pretty tough problem :) setting the

for me, it's less 'still' and more 'again'. claude code + API tokens means i no longer have to suffer the user-hostile design of many webpages. using full-screen claude code feels like finding my old DOS teddy fro

this is the type of thing you need to build a foundation sturdy enough to let you operate higher up the stack and ratchet to design-by-metaphor and then design-by-philosophy. those design skills are taught in humanities departments, not en

labor shortage and high unemployment can, and will, coexist. the roles most in demand will be those that fewest of the population are able to fill.

because they need to make as many employees quit as quickly as possible if they hope to avoid bankruptcy. i don't think they'll be able to avoid that outcome, instead they'll die trying. maybe their capital and network will

it sounds like we share a vice for information gluttony. i have a similar workflow where i continuously scan the digital horizon for useful ideas and continuously feed them into my personal toolkit. i've kind of always been like that

no one knows what that link looks like but you as an example, i built tooling that lets me open claude code and say 'add MSP430FR2476TRHBR to the library' and a few minutes later there's a schematic symbol and footprint in my

agents are everywhere nowadays, one left a long pointless comment on a bug report i submitted on github. well, a bug report that an agent submitted on my behalf. agents all the way down. maybe i'm part of the problem. https:/&

This reminds me so much of my own experience with AI fueled dev mania. Rapidly build semi-functional wonders, then pivot to something shiny and new to avoid the QA trudge of polishing that wonderous turd. I'm on my second agent orches

I'm impressed with Opus 4.5. It's been useful working on firmware projects where earlier models were of negative value. Here's an example of a one-shot output, the only change I made was Replace All 'battlezone'-&g

It uses your existing subscriptions and supports all the major CLI and API providers. There's no cloud features of Omnispect itself, it runs locally except for calls to the LLM providers. Claude Opus 4.5 is used as a routing agent, wh

This is really cool! Development environments that facilitate low-friction use of many models and providers are awesome. Here's something similar that I've been working on - https://omnispect.dev/

Have you looked into third party power bricks? If you're willing to spend the money, you can get much smaller and better looking AC/DC adapters than the standard black brick.

Externally supplied hot water through a plastic tube makes this a non-starter for me. You use almost no plastic (wonderful!), but the little there is has a lot of surface area touching hot water. Have you thought about making a water heate
