I don’t think AI will replace jobs. I think it will likely change the way specializations are re-organized For example, in tech, specializations develop around different tooling expertise (UI designer, React developer) But humans tend to organize around purposes (marketing, R&D, ops)

Much decision-making is tacit or qualitative. Making our OODA loops more legible is the first step towards observability & steerability. AI systems might help us codify this nebulous process. But how will it be trained to do this, and on what data? We don’t have good primitives or tooling for this.

I don’t really want to prompt an AI system. Instead I want it to passively watch what I do as I do things, talk to me to understand what I’m thinking as I do them, and progressively learn from me. Over time, it should understands tacitly what it’s like to make certain decisions, and then do them.

Sadly I don’t have a beefy enough computer (which is an M4 Pro MacBook Pro with 24GB RAM) to run Llama-3.3-70b-Instruct. But I was surprised it was beefy enough to run Qwen2.5-Coder-32B-Instruct at an acceptable speed! 9 tokens per second isn’t as fast as ChatGPT, but usable.

A boring but useful way to use AI I discovered today I like to read on mobile but sadly PDFs have always been problematic But then I thought, what about “reading” it with AI? Maybe I can upload the PDF I wanna read and have it spit it back out to me

Listening to Spotify Wrapped And I realize I’ve been using this product since 2012, yet the algorithm still doesn’t really know my taste well enough to recommend me songs! I have an eclectic taste and I’m okay with 60-70% of genres. I just want the best of those genres. Think: GTA radio stations

Deep diving into CMSes now for the first time since using WordPress and Webflow a decade ago It’s surprising to me how fragmented everything’s gotten yet all the options on the market seem either too complicated or incomplete Symptom of catering to either large enterprises or OSS hobbyists I guess

This is the first year of Spotify Wrapped that I realized I haven’t actually used it all that much. Don’t know what’s changed: am I aging or is music culture kind of boring now? I used to be a culture vulture and devoured as much music as I could Nowadays I just listen to instrumentals

Can’t believe a year’s passed. Just like that!

I’d really like for a combination of TanStack, local-first data fetching, and CRDTs to win out on as the dominant way we build apps. I think we’ll finally get native-feeling apps that “just works” on every platform when that happens.
