Seeing it announced as GA on stage and then seeing it in my actual local environment minutes later is pretty slick. gg @anthropic.com

Tried out the new GitHub agentic coding agent from Claude. The results were mixed https://mattsayar.com/personalized-software-really-is-coming-but-not-today-maybe-tomorrow/

@simonwillison.net Another thing about AI energy usage is that if a user is completing projects 10x faster, then isn't their overall energy expenditure lower? That's less time spent microwaving lunches, driving to and from work, borrowing coworkers' energy, using other energy-intensive resources etc

The weather's getting nicer, which means more bike riding https://mattsayar.com/e-bikes-make-your-city-smaller/

I'm stoked to see how quickly @cloudflare.social was able to spin up this MCP marketplace. Soon enough they may be the next App Store for AI integrations blog.cloudflare.com/remote-model...

My Subaru Outback has all the hardware necessary for High Beam Assist but it's software locked.. Used ChatGPT Deep Research to research and confirm, but fixing it still needs an unholy combination of a custom ODBII cable + ancient software. Oh well, I'll just keep doing it manually like a chump

Just needed to get this off my chest https://mattsayar.com/im-tired-of-dismissive-anti-ai-bias/

Vibe coding may get a bad rap but this is too fun https://mattsayar.com/how-i-vibe-coded-a-math-game-in-ten-minutes/

You wonder how people like @troyhunt.com get phished? When I bought my house it was mortgaged by Provident Funding then Homepoint Financial then LoanPal then Mr. Cooper (which got hacked) then Lakeview Loans subservicing Mr. Cooper aka NationStar Mortgage provided by FastLane. I think that's all?

If any school districts want to hire me I'm available https://mattsayar.com/solving-the-traveling-salesman-problem-more-efficient-route-planning-with-llms/

Trying to find a way around GitHub's rate limiting because I'm uploading a lot of small files at once

Just kickin out some more games based on my kid's math homework mattsayar.com/grid-and-mem...

It'd be nice to batch-import Google Calendar events but this works pretty well too https://mattsayar.com/til-creating-google-calendar-events-with-custom-links/

I usually don't read "We've updated our terms and conditions" email notifications but this one for MyFitnessPal was alright

There are 2^63 different ways to make an NCAA #MarchMadness bracket, representing 9,223,372,036,854,775,808 possible bracket combinations. If you tried to brute force 1 billion brackets/second (you can't), it would only take ~292 years to make them all!

Claude can search the internet now. Apparently I'm primarily a dentist

In case you can't tell, I really like making stuff on my site https://mattsayar.com/you-dont-have-to-shout-into-the-void-if-you-have-your-own-website/
