I missed this brilliant piece from @unmeshjoshi on the nature of coding and the power of abstractions and vocabulary in the LLM age. martinfowler.com/articles/wh…

I find myself with a few days off at home. Anyone reading anything good? I've been reading about aggregate db patterns but wouldnt mind mixing things up :)

I'm currently spending around 4k per year on personal AI subscriptions. Doubt I am alone and some folks no doubt spend more. During this time, building with AI has been my primary hobby. At some point I hope to rejoin the normies and trim this down.

I've been focusing on personal apps more lately with my builds. It's pretty fun to be working with a tool you built for yourself, realize that you wish it had a certain feature, and then build and deploy it in 30 minutes...wild world.

Still seeing posts asking if it's worth learning new tech now that AI is everywhere. My experience is the opposite. AI brings into focus all the things I wish I knew more about. Every pattern I read about, I realize I could've done something differently in one of my projects.

In case anyone else had the issue where Antigravity 2.0 update makes your workspace/file explorer disappear, I fixed it by uninstalling everything and installing Antigravity IDE first, before installing 2.0.

Sometimes coding with an llm is like talking to my kid. "You didn't use Design.md or the stitch MCP server at all when you made this did you?" "No. I made a mistake and failed to follow your explicit instructions." Ok...not *exactly* like talking to my kid on that last bit.

I've never gotten along with low/no code tools. The agentic era has exacerbated this for me. The friction of generating an entire project scaffold in an hour in my cli and then being forced to fill in boxes and paste keys in a web browser just isn't it...

I took a closer look at Design.md today for the first time. This project solves a lot of problems with using agents for web development. A lot of problems...github.com/google-labs-code/…

Between advances from Gemini CLI, Antigravity, Claude Code and Claude Cowork about 60% of my custom product development workflow has now been deprecated due to complexity being pushed down into my platforms of choice. Cool but sometimes scary :)

Came across a cool agent skill for those like me who use both Gemini CLI and Claude Code in the same project: github.com/forayconsulting/g…

Sometimes I ask my llm "How's your context window doing? Can you make it or do we need a new chat?"...and it creates the same sensation as when I ask my cat a question I know he cant really answer in good faith.

Beautiful weekend here in New Orleans. Not sure I have any energy left for Jazz Fest after giving Cloud Next my all last week though!

I really enjoyed the format of the Google Cloud Next Developer Keynote. How many keynotes take you through a progressively expanding use case that touches on almost the entire dev stack for agents?
