I am technically preparing for a linear algebra exam, but took a break to flesh out the README for bakepipe, my vaporware R pipeline library. I am aiming to get 0.1 out later this month. Would love your thoughts. github.com/vangberg/bakep…

0.3 of inaturalist-to-ankivalenz is out, skipping images that are already on disk, making it much faster if you have many observations. I am up to 36 observations, here's a recent favourite – a cowslip. It has a great name in Danish, "hulkravet kodriver". github.com/vangberg/inatu…

Claude Code works! Here's the Bakepipe implementation of a DAG: github.com/vangberg/bakep…. Spent some time building context in a GH Issue (github.com/vangberg/bakep…) inspired by Simon Willison (simonwillison.net/2022/Nov/26/pr… – great talk) and dumped it as context with tools.simonwillison.net/github-issue-t…

Getting there!

I thought incremental builds would have to wait for 0.2, but here we are.

It's time to show you Teeeach, my side project! When my sister created her first video course, I saw the pain of the complexity from existing solutions. I watched her question the risk of their pricing models. Teeeach is a reaction to this.

Of course – you don't need the GitHub Issue -> Markdown tool. Just ask Claude to pull context from the GitHub issue.

Bakepipe 0.1 is ready, complete with automatic dependency detection + incremental execution. Installable with `devtools`, CRAN later – github.com/vangberg/bakep…

Should I complicate the API with `external_in()` to catch this sort-of niche scenario, or keep it simple (but sort of incorrect) with `file_in()`? – github.com/vangberg/bakep…

I wrote some code to automate PCR primer design on your local computer with Primer3, BLASTN and marimo – harry.vangberg.name/posts/automate…

Can anybody get Claude Code in VS Code to *reliably* use `terminal-notifier` when it needs my input?

Since CRAN rejected my Bakepipe submission, I guess it is vacay time. See you all in August, where I will see how far I can get on this slightly weird idea for an R development environment I have. Tschüss!

🌟 Spotlight on Harry Vangberg! SNP to primers pairs — no more BLAST backlogs. This notebook fetches the SNP’s flanking sequence from Ensembl, designs primers via Primer3 and runs local BLAST — all in under ~5 s per tweak. Try it → harry.vangberg.name/posts/automate…
