I've been coding since I was about 15 and still love it. These days I mostly build tailored applications for small and medium companies, often alone and sometimes with small ad-hoc teams. I also do the sales myself, in person. For me,

These scans seem perfect for fabrication experiments. I’ve been trying a workflow where the mesh is inverted and used to generate a 3D-printed mold, then I gelcast zirconia ceramic into it and sinter it. The result is a dense ceramic versio

I rank with those who think human-like intelligence will require embeddings grounded in multiple physical sensory domains (vision, touch, audio, chemical sensing, etc.) fused into a shared world representation. That seems much closer to how

In the 90s people hoped Unified Modeling Language diagrams would generate software automatically. That mostly didn’t happen. But large language models might actually be the realization of that old dream. Instead of formal diagrams, we descr

One interesting way to look at projects like this is that they’re essentially tiny universes defined by a functional update rule. The grid + instruction set + step function form something like: state(t+1) = F(state(t)) Once you have that, y

I can relate to some of what you’re describing, though from a different angle. I’ve always been somewhat of a loner, and as I’ve gotten older I’ve grown increasingly dissatisfied with the shallowness of many modern interactions: the constan

Yes, anyone can generate code, but real engineering remains about judgment and structure. AI amplifies throughput, but the bottleneck is still problem framing, abstraction choice, and trade-off reasoning. Capabilities without these foundati

I’ve always designed systems along the classic path: requirements → use cases → schematization. With AI, I continue in the same spirit (structure precedes prompting), but now the foundational layer of my systems is axioms and constraints, a

What’s striking here is the convergence on a minimal axiomatic kernel (Lean) as the only scalable way to guarantee coherent reasoning. Some of us working on foundational physics are exploring the same methodological principle. In the “Funct

I’ve found a workflow that feels both structured and respectful of professional craft, especially in the context of this thread. I don’t just "vibe code" and let an LLM fill in the blanks. I use a classic design discipline (UML an

I think an important point in this discussion is that adopting FOSS requires a level of institutional openness that is not typical of governments in general. It’s not just a question of switching vendors; it’s about embracing transparency,

The folks who keep the power grid running, write compilers, secure the internet, and design dependable systems don’t get viral fame, but their contributions are far more critical. That imbalance is no small thing; it shapes who gets funded,

A conceptual critique of Bostrom’s simulation argument that focuses on how time and computation are treated. The article explores whether common assumptions about simulated realities hold in a functional view of the universe where state tra

One thing I think the “LLM as new high-level language” framing misses is the role of structure and discipline. LLMs are great at filling in patterns, but they struggle with ambiguity, the exact thing we tolerate in human languages. A practi

I’m involved in the development of the Functional Universe (FU) framework [0], and I see some interesting intersections with Wolfram’s ruliology. Both start from the idea that simple rules / functions can generate complex structure. Wh
