general tips for how i run my day: * no meetings after 12 * sit on my hands during video calls to prevent multi-tasking * no scheduled internal meetings. tap me on the shoulder or call

i'm increasingly diverging my programming towards: * Code I write and understand literally every character * Code I don't write at all, and only review. I never even manually edit it.

"it compiles" is my fav commit message

I spent today building a feature that our users will never know exists, but its absence is highly confusing. These are my favorite features.

how i program: ->think about user ->think about ui ->think about typescript ->think about data shape/query ->think about rust ->think about assembly

kind of interesting and ironic that openai is the "challenger" that is helping AI coding companies distance from the "incumbent"

openai's OSS models feel kind of like a programming language without a standard library highly capable, powerful, good reasoners, but hard to use because basic functions we expect don't exist

The latest OpenAI GPT-5 is winning my "pelican riding bicycle" Braintrust experiment while the latest Anthropic Opus struggles fwiw, the "jury" is composed of votes from the best openai, anthropic, and xai models

can ai solve js bundling

im soaking up a bunch of info from customers about gpt5 -- good bad and ugly if you have any thoughts/evals that are interesting, plz dm me (also happy to help ppl formalize their evals into braintrust)
