I'm happy I did this hike, but I'll definitely only ever do it once.

I build tools that trust your judgment and write about why that matters. paragraph.xyz/@manual rymi.app
I yet have to find a male one to get in front of my lens, which is a good reason to come back to Norway.
We need a word for an AI thinking that something is expensive and will take a lot of time because it was trained on a corpus where that was still true.
Some places change how you think about distance. Kyrgyzstan is one of them.
Unless you still intend to write code yourself, stack should be decided based on fit for agentic coding.
Somehow Claude managed to make me believe that the breadth of my English vocabulary is lacking.
One big advantage of being a builder now (vs an incumbent), is that you can actually build AI first products from the ground up. Instead of a tool with a chatbot slabbed on top, an experience that's actually different.
You need two things to be happy: meaningful relationships and work that provides purpose. People who believe humans don't want to work, learn, or move their body anymore just because an AI/Robot will do the thing in the future, miss the most important part of the equation.
When you find yourself not wanting to do marketing or sales, not willing to speak to the merits of your product, then, maybe, you're actually excited about the technical problem, not so much about putting a solution into people's hands.
This has probably always been true: you need to be obsessed about the problem; only then will you have the endurance to make the solution a success. What changed is that virtually anything you considered tedious, necessary evils, are almost fully solved problems. It's time to be a builder.
Working out products with an LLM has an interesting property: if you force yourself to not suggest any parts of the technical solution and focus entirely on the problem space, you don't accidentally fall in love with any part of the solution.
Ok I'll call it. Fable feels pretty sloppy. No life changing results to be seen, at best a small iteration from Opus, but I don't feel it at all.
Wanted a kayak, got a floatie. Apparently the harbour waves are too dangerous.
Took me a minute to realise what I was looking at. Didn't expect northern lights this far south.
Tbilisi flea markets sell everything. Soviet military coats included.
