Confession: I haven’t tried Fable yet because I don’t think I have a task that necessitates it at the moment 🙈 Definitely some kind of saturation kicking in for me.

A while back I asked my Patreon subscribers to vote for what set of tools I should extract from the > 50 challenges we've been solving over the last years. Today I can proudly ship the first one: an Optimistic Form Builder, check it out: github.com/TheHotwireCl...

You know, in the arts and music world there’s a lot of debate going on these days regarding how AI created content devalues the „real thing“. But here’s the thing: at least in the case of music, art has devalued itself a long time ago already.

ImPulsar4 is a quadraphonic piece or installation featuring autonomous agents moving sounds through space and reacting to each other's sonic qualities. the installation will premiere at The Factory Salzburg in July 2026 #SoundArt #ExperimentalMusic #SpatialAudio #GenerativeArt #SoundInstallation

Non-technical founders building with AI keep skipping the same guardrails. Not because they're careless. Because the AI never tells you the guardrail exists. 🧵

I've started putting some music on @subvert.fm : www.subvert.fm/programmverd... GO AND BUY IT IN MASSES! 🙈

Arecibo by programmverdichter - Subvert

In three movements, this cycle explores the substance of the Arecibo message, broadcast to a nearby star cluster in 1974. Being derived from just two sonic renditions of said communication attempt, it...

Here’s a short personal rant: Festivals that put out a call for works and don’t issue an artist fee. No, you have to buy a festival pass and bear the travel cost if you’re accepted. I mean I know it‘s a niche, but seriously, wtf?

"How much of your codebase is AI-written?" Wrong question. I stopped asking it. The one that predicts whether your app survives real users: which zones did you let the AI write in? 🧵

Since I'm constantly stressing myself out because I'm either under- or overfeeding Claude, I made myself this little SwiftBar plugin:

Founders coding with AI tend to land in the same place. Version one is a $200/mo no-code stack. Version two is a Rails app on a single host for around $40/mo. The math changes the day you decide to rebuild. 🧵

New challenge! 🔥 Your Turbo Stream notifications are only as fast as your server. This week: fire them before the response arrives. Optimistic UI + Stimulus outlets + Notyf in one neat package. hotwire.club/blog/2026-05...

🧵 When you can't read code, how do you know your AI built the right thing? This is the question that follows every non-technical founder once they start shipping features with Claude Code or Cursor.

🧵 Earlier this month I shipped the first article in the Getting Started series: a nine-step guide that walks a non-technical reader from a fresh Mac to a running Rails app. Then I sat down with someone who actually used it.

www.wheresyoured.at/premium-what... I‘m increasingly thinking we will see a shift to open weight, local running models and/or finetuned SLMs. Just yesterday I did some research about speculative decoding.

Premium: What If...We're In An AI Bubble? (Part 1)

Every day I read some sort of wrongheaded extrapolation about the future of AI — that today’s models are somehow indicative of AGI creating a “permanent underclass” of people that stops people from bu...

Here we goooo 🎧 Past Tense at #icmc2026 in Hamburg

Meanwhile, at #icmc2026, some sobering thoughts on AI 🤔

Made a quick video of how, and why I use mycrowsnest.app :

50 challenges in. 🎉 When I started The Hotwire Club, I wanted to build the resource I wished existed: hands-on exercises that go beyond "hello world" and force you to actually dig into Turbo and Stimulus.

🧵 A real lead asked me last week how to start. Claude Pro subscription, an MVP idea, no developer to call, little terminal experience.

Had these made for #icmc2026 in Hamburg next week
