The step change btw a prompt starting from a problem vs data gathering is the single largest step change you can make _today_ for your trajectory outcomes. i.e: > "page is slow when i ___ ... fix it" V. > "visit site[dot]com and collect a devtools trace..."

models have been post-trained to bend to your will - when you say something is slow - the model is going to make up 100 reasons for the slowness in thinking tokens If you start by seeding the context window w/ perf data you anchor the interaction in data not hallucinated rational

the added benefit of investigation first is you get verification steps out of the gate vs post-fact - the combination of anchoring your interaction with data gathering and verification baked in allows extended task horizons with significant outcomes.

πŸ”¨agent experience is the new developer experience πŸ—ΊοΈagent trajectories are the new friction logs 🧨The path to 10xing does not come from increasing token burn ... Efficacy of task and laser focus on understanding what is going wrong is the bottleneck - NOT YOUR MODEL.

Everyone is waking up to the fact that code-review is the bottleneck of 2026 I'm bullish on ramping review agents - but the vibes coming from - 0github.com - asi.review - pierre.co start to hit closer to home on where we need to go

Openclaw to GitHub this month.

Yes, you can technically run an LLM on a 1998 iMac G3 with 32 MB of RAM. Prompt: "The green goblin" Output: "The green goblin had a big mop. She had a cow in the field too. I" Hardware: β€’ Stock iMac G3 Rev B (October 1998). 233 MHz PowerPC 750, 32 MB RAM, Mac OS 8.5. No upgrades. β€’ Model: @karpathy's 260K TinyStories (Llama 2 architecture). ~1 MB checkpoint. Toolchain: β€’ Cross-compiled from a Mac mini using Retro68 (GCC for classic Mac OS β†’ PEF binaries) β€’ Endian-swapped model tokenizer from little-endian to big-endian for PowerPC β€’ Files transferred via FTP to the iMac over Ethernet Challenges: β€’ Mac OS 8.5 gives apps a tiny memory partition by default. Had to use MaxApplZone() NewPtr() from the Mac Memory Manager to get enough heap β€’ RetroConsole crashes on this hardware, so all output writes to a text file you open in SimpleText β€’ The original llama2.c weight layout assumes n_kv_heads == n_heads. The 260K model uses grouped-query attention (kv_heads=4, heads=8), which shifted every pointer after wk and produced NaN. Fixed by using n_kv_heads * head_size for wk/wv sizing β€’ Static buffers for the KV cache and run state to avoid malloc failures on 32 MB It reads a prompt from prompt.txt, tokenizes with BPE, runs inference, and writes the continuation to output.txt. Fun!

#1 mistake I see people making when prompt coding is omitting verification instructions. The delta in outcomes btw a prompt that explicitly lists a verification step and not is significant. Often it's as simple as "Optimize code in main . py" vs "Profile and optimize"

The cost of code nearing 0 is great and all - but i'm more excited about the burden of tech-debt dropping to zero.

Openclaw is a glimpse into the future I expect to materialize within the next 3 months for everyone who today is only using the web front ends of the frontier models. The oh s*** moment that is happening right now is a result of lowering the barrier to entry for the highly technical early adopters - demonstrating just how much is possible today if you string all of the pieces together with the existing models
